Well, the night was anything but normal. At 2:00 am a crazy beeping sound goes off in our house. I sleep through it, though, because I’m such a good sleeper. Mom and Aunt Claire creep around the house on their tippy toes looking for the feared intruder and end up finding…each other. Boo!
Mom discovers that it’s our carbon monoxide alarm and freaks out. She calls the fire department and gets voice mail (!); her next call is 9-1-1 (!!). The emergency team decides that they’re coming to our house. Mom asks “can you come without the sirens?” No way. So, though I didn’t wake up the alarm, the flashing lights and blaring sirens did the trick — I was up. Shockingly, there was no emergency and they left. I pretended to have no interest in going to sleep, which meant that I got to sleep in bed with Mom. Works every time!
I started eating beef today. I think that gives me most of the common meats except for pork. I played in my room with Grandma Droste so that A/C could “sleep in” until 7:30. I spit up twice in the morning which is pretty unusual for me. Then I took my morning nap. Grandma Droste mixed my ground beef with the broccoli risotto and made little meat balls that I could eat with my fingers.
Throughout the afternoon I drank a lot of Grandma’s water and really for the first time started playing in my pack ‘n’ play. I guess that’s what my new found mobility gets me!
