After the storm

Well we finally got power back after 2 and 1/2 days with no power...had to throw out the food in both the fridge and freezer...since we were without power I made arrangements to go to Alexandria VA to visit USAFA friends. It was really great and got to see what my future holds when play dates occur with lots of little kids running around.

Matthew starts his 1/2 days of daycare tomorrow so we drove back this afternoon so we could get laundry done and things situated for tomorrow's new adventure. I plan to use day-care time tomorrow to get the apartment cleaned and groceries restocked. Classes start on-line for me on Monday so I need to also check all my classes to ensure they are ready to go. Also need to pack for the quick trip to Louisiana. Its only 3 full days and 3 nights but if this weekend has taught me anything I have to pack a few extra undergarments shirts b/c while at Jenn and Stina's I got pee'd on twice so there went 2 shirts and pucked on so that was shirt number 3. Yeah, Matthew is not a spitter-upper so it took me by surprise when this lunch came back up...then it happened again later this evening once we got home to Richmond...so far the evening bottle has not come back up but i did supplement with peas baby food. He likes peas so luckily he took them ok, he just gets distracted easily and frustrated that he can't play with the spoon.

As for our parenting challenge with sleep, it was much better last night so hopefully a repeat and a shift is on the horizon.
