She is still up all night
Well so far the advise given by the doctor, to keep her awake more during the day so she will sleep at night is not working. You can set off a bomb under her during the day and she sleeps soundly. She can even sleep through a bath. She is, for whatever reason, a night owl. I think I will take the advise of my friend Bethany who recommended to stay awake when she is awake and sleep when she is sleeping. Maybe later I can bribe her with chocolate to stay awake during the day.
Cabin fever is starting to set in. Today is the Monday after Thanksgiving and I actually wish I was returning to work to hear about everybody's holiday. There are several things I miss about work:
1. I miss my coworkers. They laugh at my jokes and never wake me up to play at 2 am.
1a. I miss Danny. He is the best short order cook in town. He makes the best breakfast burritos.
2. I miss being a problem solver. I would talk to people all day long who were grateful for my help.
3. I miss the hustle and bustle of downtown.
4. Did I mention I missed Danny? He makes a killer chicken quesadilla too.
OK, enough with the pity party. Evelyn is pretty cool. And no one at work can claim to be a miracle. We discovered a cool website this week, http://www.wrapyourbaby.com/index.htm. I was in search of instructions on how to use a baby wrap I got at my baby shower. This site is great. It has great pics and directions. Best of all we have discovered a few ways to wrap her that keeps her quiet while I get things done, like write a blog. In short Evelyn is happy to be my main accessory. Check it out.
