Just One of Those Days

Abby and I are having one of those days where nothing seems to be getting done. First off, after sleeping seven straight hours the night before last, Abby went back to 3 to 4 hour spurts of sleeping last night, so I was back to getting 2 to 3 hours (by the time I got her fed, changed her diaper, and got myself back to sleep it was an hour after she first woke me up). And, unlike normal mornings, when we sleep to around 9 or 9:30, Abby wanted to be up and at it before 8, so it was a very short night for me. It was a short night for Abby too, but that has made her hard to get down for naps today, so I'm sure she'll be very charming when her dad gets home in an hour. Hopefully when he gets home from work I will finally be able to get a shower in today, but the way today is going I wouldn't be surprised if I never make it into the shower.

I tried to plant some more flowers in my flower bed this afternoon. It was sunny when I decided to get Abby and I ready to go out for some yard work, but by the time we got outside it was back to cloudy and cool (it is 59.4 degrees as I type this). So, I only got half of my lilies planted and didn't get any of my edging fence up, so Maize can still get into my flower bed and lay on the new plants. So far I have cosmos, columbine, lupine, foxglove, elephant ear plants, annual vinca, petunias, verbena, Asiatic lilies, and giant pumpkins. We will see how many of those seeds actually come up.

So, now that it is 4 p.m., I should probably do the domestic thing and think about starting dinner. But since I just got Abby to sleep, I may have some screaming going on if I try to sneak away and she wakes up while I am in the kitchen. She's been keeping her eye cracked while she sleeps and won't let me get away from her for long. Her yawning picture is today's special, the nice smile pictures below are yesterday's sweet baby.

This weekend's big plans are visiting Paradise and Whitefish Point. We are hoping that the weather is nice so we can enjoy the big lake and see part of our beautiful new neighborhood.
