Good Girl

Last night Ava had a really hard time going to sleep. She fussed in my arms for 30 minutes...finally I layed her in her crib to fuss by herself. Eventually she cried, so I walked with her and she went to sleep. She kept waking up, crying, and I kept having to pat her. Scott was out with his friends from work last night so I crawled into bed at 9pm. I heard her fussing through the monitor but she settled herself down. She slept from 9pm-midnight! I know that doesn't sound like a lot but it is for Ava. THEEEEEN....she nursed in bed with me and slept until 4:20am!!!!!!!! I was so excited that I slept for over four hours in a row. Then she slept and was up for the day at 6am. I can totally handle this schedule so if she wants to keep it up then I am fine with it! I know it sounds bad-but it is so much better than before. Everyone PLEASE PRAY that she will settle down at night-I really need it. I was so proud of her and happy to see her when she woke up this morning. Speaking of waking up---isn't today a beautiful day?!?!?! We woke up to a black sky, complete with thunder and lightening. I have a huge fear of lightening (long story) but it has greatly diminished since I've had children. Now I want to be brave for them (so they aren't afraid of it) instead of running and hiding under the covers when I see a flash of light or hear a rumble. 

Yesterday was my Daddy's birthday! We had a big dinner with the whole family (except Noelle!) at Las Casuelas Quinta. Yuuuuuummy :) Scott had v-ball practice so he was late. My babies were so very well behaved. Sometime I get nervous about taking them both out by myself because they are still really little and can get fussy verrrry fast. Toddler+infant+diaper bag+2 highchairs/highchair covers+2 sippy cups+baby food+a million others things to remember/carry=one anxiety filled Mommy! HAHA My anxiety is getting better though (I think??!?!?! LOL)

OK this post is long enough. I haven't had time to ramble on and on for awhile so here it is :) Have a great, rainy day everyone.
