Monday, Monday

It doesn't feel like Monday, because Daddy stayed home today, and Uncle Greg is still here. Adele was up early, but so was everyone else, so that was no big deal. For some reason she's only sleeping 3 1/2 or 4 hour stretches anymore at night...what happened to her 7 1/2 or 8 hour stretches??? I miss those! Oh well, at least she's sleeping, right? Plus, on average it is only taking half an hour to feed her and get her back down, it used to be an hour at least, so we're doing something right! And, I've been able to fall back asleep again after she eats, so that's good!

She wasn't thrilled about taking naps today...especially since it was time to cut her nails. It seems that on "manicure" days she never wants to fall asleep, and when she finally does sleep, she won't let me sit down with her in order to get at those fingers! (Part of the problem is that she has become used to being swaddled for her naps too....can't cut her nails when her hands are swaddled) I ended up cutting her nails while she was awake.

We took her to Ted's for lunch...Daddy had been looking forward to eating at Ted's for months! She was VERY well behaved! She stayed in her carseat the whole time (which gave me a chance to eat ALL of my yummy food!) and only fussed a little just as we were leaving. Of course, she cried the whole way home, but that's to be expected...

Tonight Daddy and Greg are at their Asia concert, so it's Girl's Night In! Unfortunately, Adele is being a party pooper and is sleeping already. (Of course, now that I've typed that she'll probably wake up and won't go back to sleep for several hours!)

Dear Adele,

Looks like your mama is getting it back. Getting what back? Her song-writing greatness. Did you know that when she was in college she wrote a million parody songs? Now she's just using song titles (or parody titles) but maybe we'll start seeing entire songs in this blog soon.

Happy sleeping, baby!

Love,
Aunt Katie
