bunny baby
Jun. 15th, 2008 11:27 pmOn one hand, you know that letting your kid take a 1.5 hour nap beginning at 4:30 is a really bad idea. On the other hand, you also know you can't keep her awake for an entire car ride since she is exhausted. And thus, it is nearing eleven and the dorko baby is being walked by her father, as if she is again a teeny tiny (as much as she ever was) baby. She is worn out but resisting the notion of sleep. She has been SO cute, though. She has been rocking her bunny and calling it baby! baby! baby! and giggling when we kiss her and talking to us so sweetly that I melted into a puddle of warm goo on the floor. Then she laughed uproariously and sat on my head. Motherhood is awesome.
We are home from our customary third weekend wtih my parents. It started a bit before normal this time, with my parents and niece arriving on Friday evening to spend the night. M had to work on Saturday, so we took off yesterday morning from here with M scheduled to drive up by himself when he got off work. We stopped for some shopping and lunch and..well.. M beat us there after working all day. Aeropostle, what crazed hold do you have over my niece? I had my dad drop me off at Target while they went in there. I looked around, walked next door to Old Navy, looked around, walked over to Goody's, looked around, and then walked back to Target and stayed awhile before they came back to pick me up. I do not shop like my mom and niece do, I'll just say that much.
AWWWW. She totally fell asleep on M, clutching her little bunny. She fell asleep halfway through the second time he sang Sov Lilla Totte (otherwise known as the song he has sung to me since before we were married, and every night to her before she was even born.) Sometimes, when she does not want to fall asleep for me, I have wondered if she just wants M. Tonight, I really think she did. Maybe she knew it was Father's Day because I think that was just about the best present she could have given him.
Oh, yes, and I shaved M's head twice this weekend. I think the story there will have to wait until later, though, because I am ready to see if he will carry me around singing, too. Or at least tuck me into bed, because I'm so sleepy. I rarely sleep well at my parents house, which is stupid since.. hello.. I slept there for over two decades.
