Sooo the weekend went by wayyy too fast...like it always does. We did get to get the kids. Christopher ran a very low grade fever Friday morning but he was feeling better and we just kept him away from Emma as much as we could. Friday night I took the kids to get something to eat and we just came home and chilled. Saturday morning I got up early and ran to Walmart to buy the groceries. We didn't want to get Christopher out too much and this is usually something we do as a family but not this time...it was also a good excuse to get out of the house for an hour or so by myself. Chris' parents came over that afternoon to visit. We had originally planned for my sister to watch Emma so we could go to the movies but my niece, Bailee, ended up with the stomach bug on Friday so we had to change plans. I really wanted the kids to have some sort of project or something to do this weekend so after his parents left, we went back to Walmart and bought a tie-dye kit and some white shirts...and a white onesie for Emma. We also picked up some steaks so we could grill dinner and bake cookies. After dinner, it was time for baths and putting Emma to bed so we could start family movie night. The last time we did this, I fixed surprise popcorn. This time the kids opted to have hot cocoa with marshamllows and chocolate syrup. After they finished their cocoa, they were disappointed with their decision because cocoa doesn't last as long as surprise popcorn. The movie of choice was The Karate Kid. The girls were completely against this choice but they ended up really enjoying it as did Chris and I. Sunday was a lazy day. Every Sunday in the Bailey house is a lazy day. But around mid-afternoon we did the tie-dye shirts. They have to set for several hours so they were still in plastic bags by the time the kids went home. They didn't turn out all that well. The only one that looks half decent is Christophers.
This weekend is going to be great! Friday is our 5th wedding anniversary so Chris' parents are coming over to stay the night and we are going out and will stay in a hotel! Which leads me to the heading of this post. Emma is NOT sleeping! And I don't mean shes' just getting up 3 or 4 times a night. She's getting up almost once every hour and just fusses. I don't know what's going on with her. But the pattern seems to be that if she doesn't take a good nap during the day, she doesn't sleep good at night. She didn't get a good nap all weekend so she didn't sleep good all weekend. Yesterday I had a meeting in LR all day so she stayed in Heber with Judy and she didn't take a good nap. Last night was probably the worst night we've had since she was a newborn. She was up most of the night starting at 11 pm. I thought maybe it's her gums and I even gave her Tylenol before she went to sleep and it did no good. Needless to say, I'm exhausted. Today she took an hour nap from 11-12 and then slept from 3-5:30. She went to bed at 8:45 and is still asleep now (11:45 pm). So tonight will help with my theory about the naps. I will update that tomorrow or later in the week.
Goodnight!
