Think good thoughts . . .
Is what I am trying to do that right now. We just finished Christmas shopping this afternoon and had stayed up till midnight wrapping presents (we aren’t done yet either). My freaking out right now probably has more to do with my lack of sleep than anything. My house is still in one piece (kinda) and everybody is okay, so I should be happy.
Last years shopping was a tad easier though. Bill and I had ordered a set of contemporary furniture for the living room and that was our present to one another. This year we had to buy actual gifts. We went to Best Buy, and Bill made me pick out what I wanted. Not quite what I was expecting, but I should be happy that he bought me anything at all.
Well, I am going to go back to bed. Maybe Bill’s dad can come over and they can get the door back on. If not, we’ll figure it out.
The Weekend
Well, we helped my sister Kari move into her new house this weekend. Its pretty cute. Definitely a starter house. That’s why we went to Green Bay this weekend. Now, next weekend we have a graduation party.
Madison, of course, did not sleep while we were there. Like usual. For some reason, when we get there she does not sleep. She sleeps 3 hours then gets up and wants Grandma to rock her the rest of the night in the chair. My mom tried several times to move to the couch from the chair and each time she woke up. One of the times she pointed my mom back to the chair. She’s a little bossy. LOL
Madison also tried to get my mom is trouble. It was pretty funny. Grandma yelled at her for taking wooden spoons and hitting Kari’s walls. Madison went running to me and told me that Grandma was hitting the wall with the spoons. I thought it was pretty funny. Classic two year old behavior.
The only good thing that came from Madison’s lack of sleep was that she slept the whole ride home. She fell asleep in Green Bay before Bill started the van and slept till we were 5 minutes from home. It was an enjoyable drive.
Well, gotta cut this short. Bill and I are both sick (with colds) and I want to go to bed. I just got Madison to sleep in her own room without Bill sleeping on the floor (Yeah!). That was a bad habit he got into with her. Now, if she’ll just sleep in her own bed all night. Keep your fingers crossed.
