Our first trip to the grocery store!

After my mom's group meeting, I went out to lunch with some other moms in Silver Spring. Afterward, since Alexa was still sleeping, I decided to duck into Whole Foods for cereal. Well, one thing led to another and soon I had a whole basket of food!

It was a bit difficult shopping with a stroller... I have heard from other moms that it's easier to shop with the baby in a sling until they are old enough to sit up in the cart. Speaking of, I think we'll need to get one of those cart covers to protect her from germs... Like this one? Or this one?

In other news, I just found out that I can extend my job-protected leave until Feb. 24th! I spoke with my manager today and I'm all set to take another couple months off. Yay! More time to play with Alexa!
