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.
