Hi ladies - well, Katie was at daycare for about 3 hours and I managed to go get my hair cut, get lunch, and clean my entire house. I've gotten rather efficient these days! Of course, that's only when Katie's not around. I had to clean though, as Katie now looks at anything on the floor as fair game for a snack - lint, fuzz, cat hair, leaves, rocks, dirt...
Let's see....Hayley - this made me laugh
DH was out at an airforce end of year function and didn't get in until 2am so I spent a lot of time lying awake wondering when he'd be home.
as I am EXACTLY the same way (and really very laid back otherwise). I have GOT to calm down before Katie gets old enough to go out with her friends.
Judy - saw your comments on another post about discipline - to you and Nikki both - whose discipline philosophy do you like? (Basically what books do you like?) I'm beginning to realize that stage will be here sooner than later with how fast time goes these days!
Kate - our days actually look a whole lot like yours. Katie goes to bed anytime between 7:15 and 8:30 and is up generally sometime between 7-8. When I work on Mondays, I generally don't get home until 8:15 or so, and DH is no good at getting her to bed ontime. He seems to wait for me to put her in her crib. Weekends too tend to be later days.
Traci - good luck with your sleeping tonight. I know you'll be an excellent sleep mod as well! Oh, and thanks for the update on Holly - I was worried after she mentioned how sick Brady was and then disappeared!
Nikki - Hooray for the sleep. Hope you get some more tonight.
Kate - your pictures are great! I love them! I got one of Katie and Santa yesterday, but it's not digital, so I'll have to find someone with a scanner.
Roz - I like Kate's (unsolicited
) advice. Maybe he's just needs it spelled out for him that things are different now.
Judy - LOL about Dora. Hey, look at it this way - she's learning Spanish!
Micky - Hooray for Jackson! I too would love to see his reaction to getting his legs back.
OK, I am apologizing right now for the late cards I haven't sent out yet. The Kodak site is giving my grief about printing the pictures since they look professional (they were taken by a retired professional photographer, but I am related to him) and they need proof I'm not violating any sort of copyright. So, I sent them the proof and they haven't gotten back to me :evil: -- at this point, since the international ones are going to be late anyway, I'm waiting for the pics.
It's 5:30 and Katie is sleeping. She took a whopping 20 minute nap at daycare this morning, then we had to drop DH off at the train (meeting in NYC tonight), so she didn't get down for her nap until about 4:15. Since she's so short on sleep today anyway, I think I'll just let her sleep for a bit more and if she needs to stay up later, so be it.
Thanks for being here ladies.
