Sleep

Downs

  • Calvin really didn’t want to go to sleep tonight. He was a little groggy when I put him in the crib but as soon as I closed the door, he started screaming. I let him scream for a couple of minutes but decided that maybe he had throw his burp cloth over the side so I went up to check. He hadn’t but I tried to relax him but massaging him a bit before leaving again. He started screaming immediately but I decided I probably wasn’t helping by being in his room. He screamed for about 15 min before falling asleep. It’s really hard to listen to your baby scream because he wants you to hold him :-(

Ups

  • This is the second day in a row that Calvin has slept in past 6:30 in his own crib!
  • This was my “free” day. I picked out my piano songs for church this week, worked about an hour, worked for a couple of hours on money, and then had about an hour to read before picking up Calvin from daycare. I’d like a little more free time on my “free” day but it’s also nice to get useful things done.
  • I finished reading Love in the Afternoon by Lisa Kleypas. I think it’s probably my second or third favorite in the series with my favorite being Tempt my at Twilight.

Calvin Moment

  • Calvin is starting to have very definite preferences on which books I read him. Today, he wanted nothing to do with Sheep in a Jeep but instead insisted on Moo, baa, la la la, One Duck Stuck, and Quack! several times. In addition to “moo” he is also starting to be able to say “la la la.”

Simplification

  • Didn’t really do anything. Recently, I’ve been focusing on getting our finances better organized and trying to finalize our wills.
