Sleepless in Maryland

For the last two nights, I've had the immense pleasure of sleepping next to my daughter. The first night I opted to let Mike sleep alone because he'd driven for five hours to Seattle. Because of the car accident in February, he gets numbness in his hands and his back gets quite tense. Last night, he was in pain, so again I decided to sleep with Diane.
For a small person, she sure takes up a huge amount of space. I spent the night fighting her off, and listening to her talk in her sleep. At one point, she made it very clear that she "Wanted the green one!" In the wee hours I woke up to the feeling of someone watching me. Sure enough, I rolled over to see her staring right at me. She likes to sleep sideways on the bed, and has no issue sticking her tiny little feet in my face. Thankfully she was wearing satin jammies, so I could easily push her back to her side of the bed.
Already it is very muggy here. I've put on my makeup and managed to get my hair looking great. I just hope it stays until I meet the family.
I miss Tim Hortons!!!!!

  1. What a fun trip! I'm sure you'll enjoy meeting extended family even if they are quite a bit older. The Smithsonian sounds like fun too.
