Emma counted to 10 last night plain as day and all by herself. That is the first time it was clear she knew what she was doing. It’s so weird how it just comes out of the blue.
Lexi has GOT to start sleeping at night. Not only did she get up at 10, 12:30, 4:30, she was up at 6:30 for the day. Ugh. At least she has started taking longer naps. She’s a pleasant little girl though. Unless she is hungry or tired, you rarely hear anything but babble out of her. She is a maniac in her johnny jump up, she gets that thing swinging. She hops 2 or 3 times and then picks her feet up for the ride. It’s the cutest thing ever.
MIL got a new position and won’t be coming to get Emma on Wednesdays. Of course. I always enjoyed that time as much as Emma did. I love Emma to death but caring for one baby is just flat out easier than two. If Lexi would go with her, I’d probably let her go too. As long as my kids are happy, I don’t really care if they go or not. I just can’t stand it when they go and don’t want to be there. I know my job as a mother is not to make them happy, but I do what I can.
