We had a good day. Laura only took an hour and a half nap, but she was in a fairly decent mood. I made the mistake of telling her before nap that we’d be going to coffee after nap. That set her up for excitement. She started off with “I want coffee!” over and over […]
We had a pretty good weekend around here. On Saturday Robert made waffles for breakfast. After breakfast was cleaned up I went shopping, without kids or a husband!
