Adventures with the baby sitter

We had a date night tonight so Megan hung out with Jen, our sitter. Jen has only had to feed Megan on two occasions- the first time was a couple of weeks ago when we had a date night.

Megan had recently had shots and she wasn't eating well so we warned her it might be difficult to get her to take her bottle. When we got home Megan wouldn't eat for Jen but just played with the bottle - something she had stopped doing with us some time ago. When we got home Will gave Megan her bottle and she ate it just fine.

Last night we told Jen that Megan was back to her normal routine and was eating fine and told her how to handle it if Megan tried to play with the bottle. When we got home Jen was "upset" because Megan wouldn't take the bottle from her - she wasn't even slightly interested. I did fail to tell Jen that she ate A LOT for dinner and that she might not want the bottle. Will did manage to get her to eat about 2 ounces I think. I felt bad.

So this weekend Jen will be watching Megan while we spend some time at the new house getting measurements, determining what all we want to do it before we move in. She may get another chance to feed Megan, not only her bottle, but actual food. This should be fun.

Megan does love her though - when we got home I had her lay Megan down beside her so I could try to get her to take the bottle and Megan reached out and grabbed her hand just like she does ours. So very sweet.
