I would love to run in the Moab Half with the Dashing Divas and the PF Chang Rock'n'Roll Marathon with you, Shauna. Those races sound awesome. No promises, but thanks for the invitations. I feel the love of the blog!
Will woke up this morning at 5. I was worried that Will would fall asleep again during the run. I had big plans for today and Will's morning nap was crucial for making those plans work. He didn't fall asleep! It was wonderful.
My plan was Will to sleep in the port-a-crib, so I could attend a quilt group this morning. I knew Will might cry a bit because he would be sleeping in a strange, new room. I figured he and I could handle it. Actually, I didn't give either of us much choice because today the quilt group was tying my denim blanket. Everything was working out perfectly. I even fit in two errands before we headed to the church for the quilt group. Will was getting very sleepy in his car seat. I started to think maybe he wouldn't fuss too much because he was so tired. And then. . . we got stuck behind a TRAIN! A very long train. A very slow train. A train that stopped dead on the tracks with two train cars to go!
We waited. Will feel asleep. I waited and waited. I laughed when the train came to a complete stop. Some cars turned around, but being new to the area--I had no idea if there was another way. Our car was also trapped between another lane of cars and a curb. We waited for a half an hour.
With Will awake, we tied the denim quilt. The women in the quilt group are extremely nice and patient probably because they were all mothers of fifteen month olds at one time.
Questions for all you mothers:
When did you know your children were ready for one nap a day?
How did you teach them not to throw their food on the floor? (Will throws his food on the floor when he is finished. Sometimes I am able to anticipate when he is done, but other times I clean the floor.) |
