The sometimes amusing and boring life of being parents.

Weekend Roundup....A Little Late!

The weekend went really well with Jeff being gone. We didn't get much wintry weather, but it was cold and rainy most of the time. My mom (Grammy) got here on Friday afternoon just in time to feed Madison. When she got here, she discovered that her tire was going flat!! We ended up having AAA come and change it. Mom decided that she wanted to do the middle of the night feeding, which typically is between about 2 and 4am. I had told her not to turn on any lights, but just use the night lights because we were trying to teach Madison the difference between night and day. Well, apparently, Madison decided to pee everywhere when Grammy went to remove the diaper! So, mom had to change everything, and of course turn on the lights. Over the next several days, Grammy had some tough times with that middle of the night feeding. It seemed that Madison decided to have her poopy diaper then!! Better her than me!! Anyway, we ended up not going shopping until Monday and Tuesday. We went to the mall on Monday, and she got a lot of clothes. I hope they last her until this summer. It was really different to go to the mall with a baby and stroller. I had become one of those people that I hated. Oh well!! Then on Tuesday we met my friend Carisa for lunch. She had called last week and said that she had something for Madison, but I didn't know what it was. Well, she knitted her little booties!! They are so cute!



I tried to get a picture of her in them, but she wasn't having any of it. She kept kicking her legs and feet, and the booties would go flying. This is the best that I could do. I'm determined though to try and get better pictures. I'm still in shock that Carisa actually made these. They are probably one of the best gifts that Madison has received. Thanks Carisa!!



As for Jeff's weekend, I think he had a blast going to Daytona with another male instead of his boring wife. Everytime he called me, they were either burping or farting!! AND, he got to stay until the very end of the race. The past 2 years that I have gone it's been so cold that we left really, really early. I think Jeff is still mad about last year. We left early, and we missed THE best finish in the history of the race. Oh well!!
