Well, here we are on day two. Emma had a rough night last night. She was up from about nine to one-thirty. The poor little kid had a stomach ache. Hopefully it isn't the beginning of a pattern! :) The time change also threw us off our schedule a little. When it's eleven p.m. and I want to go to bed, she still thinks she has another hour to stay up. (Not that she was ever really on a schedule anyway.)

Since she was up so late last night, she has been really drowsy today. She slept off and on all morning. Now that it's evening she has decided to wake up and fuss. She likes someone to hold her and walk around with her. Most of the time it's a lot easier to carry her around the house, trying to do stuff with one hand, than put her down and let her cry. Especially when Trevor's sleeping. I don't want her to keep him awake. So I don't get much done anymore. I've been trying to get into more of a routine: cooking meals, showering, washing dishes, doing laundry, cleaning. But it's nearly impossible and most days I'm lucky if I can get the dishes done and fix one meal (even if it's just toast). And usually I do those things when Trevor's holding the baby.

Trevor is trying to juggle work, school, sleep, and helping me with Emma. If I could give him a belated anniversary gift, I would give him two straight days of sleep. I would give myself two straight days of sleep too! :)

Well, Emma's asleep in her swing now (she loves her swing) so I'm going to try to get dinner together!
