The Past Few Days

Well, you already saw that Lacey is refusing to nap. ;-) What else has been happening? Hmmm.

Daycare was closed Mon. - today. We've been trying to keep things fun around here for Lacey. We went to Chuck E. Cheese for the first time Tuesday. Lacey seemed a bit nervous and shy to start, but after having lunch, she warmed up and had some fun.


We also had gotten her a golf set, so she & Daddy have been playing golf some in the yard.

Leah had a rough night on Monday night - up almost every hour. The 1 time she slept 2 hours, Lacey woke up in the middle of it. Ugh. Last night was a huge improvement. Lacey slept from 8:30 to 7:30 this morning and Leah gave me 2 3-hour chunks, plus some smaller ones. I can't wait until things are more consistant! I have been wondering if Leah has a touch of reflux. Lacey never really spit up, but Leah does quite a bit. We inclined her cosleeper last night so that she isn't flat and that seemed to help. Usually she'll spit up in her sleep, but she didn't last night.

My Harry Potter book arrived on Saturday and I was so excited. However, I'm only a few chapters into it. With Lacey back at daycare tomorrow, I might be able to read some while Leah naps. (Doesn't that sound awful? Send Lacey to daycare so I can read??? But...she really does do better with her normal routine.....)

Hopefully the transition back to daycare won't be too hard. It's hard when we get off of her routine. At least Miss Lisa doesn't have any scheduled time off until late August. So, we'll have a few weeks of consistancy.

Oh - here's a picture to show what a loving big sister Lacey is!

Dee, Buck & family; and Rick, Kristina & family are all on vacations. Dee/Buck are in OBX and Rick/Kris are in FL. We have Woody (R/K's dog), who is neurotic. He can't be left alone or he'll pee/poop everywhere. He can't be put in our fenced yard because he'll get out, so he was in the basement while we were at Chuck E. Cheese yesterday.

Dad is watering Dee's plants and feeding Ginger and Tinks (R/K's other pets). Although, he called us on Saturday to ask if we could do all that the next day so he could stay at Frankie's. I wasn't happy. Note to my family: Everyone isn't allowed to go on vacation at the same time again......unless we all go someplace together! Honestly, I don't mind taking care of the pets, etc., since people do it for us. I'm just more grumpy than usual due to sleep deprivation. And, in all honesty, Woody has been really good on this visit.

Lacey is still sleeping on the floor in the family room (for an hour so far). It's after 5:00, so she needs to wake up soon for dinner and so her bedtime routine isn't totally screwed up. Although, she's probably so tired from skipping naps that she'll still go to bed fine!!! (Let's hope so.)
