Weekend Update

Thursday night I was able to meet my friend Sarah for a quick dinner, Steve was all in a huff b/c he says I always schedule something when Iowa plays basketball! Oops! They didn't play until 8 and I was home by 7, so no biggie! :P

 

Saturday Steve got up bright and early to smoke a pork butt on his new smoker that he got for his birthday (which isn't until April, but he just couldn't wait). We did a lot of cleaning and Presley and I made a trip to the mall. She was less than cooperative for most of it. She was hungry (even though we had asked for 2500 times what she wanted for lunch and she said she wasn't hungry) and she her legs were tired (really? we had walked 1/4 of the mall). We did laundry and Steve did more cooking. We had over the neighbors down the street for dinner that night, they have a 2 1/2 yr old girl Bryn, and they are due to have another baby girl in 3 weeks! The company was great and the food was wonderful, Steve did a great job for his first time smoking anything!

 

My pretty girl.

 

So almost 2 weeks ago is when Piper fell out of her crib for the first time, then that same week she woke up covered in her own throw up. So we had to wash everything and decided we would try to get rid of the bumper pads. DUMB. Last week her sleeping was terrible, we had to get up multiple times a night to retrieve that stupid pacifier that kept falling out of the crib!

So we put the bumper pads back on to help all of us sleep a little more. Saturday night, after a short afternoon nap and going to bed late, Piper slept like SHIT. It was one of those nights that I just couldn't wait for morning so I could just get up b/c there was no quality sleep happening. She was up at 11, 12 and then from 1-4 AM. Then at 3:30 Presley woke up from Pipers crying! Are you kidding me? Steve finally took Piper into bed with him, I slept on the couch and they eventually fell sleep about 5 am (or 6 with the time change)

So with the time change and Piper not sleeping. We were all completely off Sunday morning. Of course, I was still up at 7:30 like normal, Presley didn't get up until about 9:30 (8:30 normal time), I had to leave to meet Holly and mom at Costco...when I left at 10:40, Piper and Steve were still sleeping in our bed! That is crazy! But that is how completely OFF the family was this night!

 

So I met Holly and mom at Costco, came home and we tried to spend time outside since it was 50 degrees, however the wind was chilly and everything was soaking wet from the melting snow. Piper only fell down....all of the time, covered in cold, melted snow, so her time was limited out there. She did take a late nap from 2-3:30, we did some laundry, some more playing and then we had Holly and Jerry over for leftover pulled pork from Saturday. They stayed for a couple hours and we ate, hung out and then we got the kids ready for bed! Piper has already been up crying multiple different times in the lat hour, so it's not looking to be a good night.

Goodnight all!

 

 

I do have some good Presley stories, but that will have to wait until next time.
