Random

- Living next to a guy who owns a landscaping business is good and bad.....his landscaping looks amazing during the summer (and he gives us a small deal on things we need) but during the winter when he is plowing snow he tends to do his driveway in the middle of the night. That is right....12:30 AM Wednesday morning, that is what we heard less than 10 feet from Piper's bedroom window. Awesome.

- I think I mentioned that P's hair was crooked after she got it cut. Yeah it is. We are going back on Saturday to have them fix it and they better be nicer and more apologetic than they were when I called them. And if they aren't we will no longer be going back to Sheer Madness, which sucks since we haven't had any problems until now.

- Steve put on FB last Monday that we needed a vacation, semi-jokingly. We have been looking at Nashville for the last year and that was our plan for this spring. Then he got a call from his friend Todd that changed everything. Two couples (friends of ours) had booked a trip to Puerto Vallarta for the end of April and had an extra room in the house mansion they are staying in. So we looked into it, the flight wasn't too expensive, I talked to my mom who agreed to watch the girls for 5 days and now we are going! That was Monday night and Wednesday morning I purchased the flight tickets! I mean, how could we say no?

- I just read The Slave Across the Street, which is a real story of a normal girl who got mixed up with sex trafficking in Michigan. It was very eye-opening! And to realize that this does happen in the US to normal, average girls and it seems that no one is aware of it! :(

- We are doing anything we can to get Piper to sleep at a normal time but every night is it close to 9:30. We've given her Benedryl the last 2 nights and still, the same. I painted her nails the other night and it was coming off already. I told her that it was b/c she was not going to sleep good at night time! :) She wanted Steve to pick her up from daycare today, we told her if she went to sleep good that he would....still it was 9:30. If she would just stay quiet in her room, it wouldn't be that big of a deal. But she wants books, then more milk, then her diaper needs changed, then she picks out an outfit for the next day, then she wants us to pat her back and if you ignore her, she gets loud and usually Presley is already asleep by then and we don't want to wake her up. We have cut her naps down to an hour, but even that doesn't seem to make a difference. It's a struggle, I guess we can just be thankful that she'll sleep in on the weekends. :)
