August 17th

Now THAT sleeping was more like it!  Twelve hours and then up for about an hour and then nap for almost four hours.  Hallelujah... That said, when you don't sleep for a night, you get massively overtired.  When you go to sleep overtired you put yourself at risk for night terrors (which are no fun...scientifically speaking it's when you have trouble getting from one sleep cycle to the next- usually the first to the second.  What that ends up looking like is a fit in your sleep.  It's so hard to watch.  They say you have no idea what went on, and really doesn't effect you in the slightest...I argue that while that appears to be the case, it's not like folks your age could report deleterious effects you're noticing...whatevs.)  Point?  Let's continue sleeping like we mean it, shall we?

You planted those flowers from seed!  They're really pretty...the camera isn't actually capturing them as nicely as I'd like...

We went and hung out with Alison and then Alison and CJ for a while today - I wasn't on top of the picture thing...I think I just took so many outside of their house that it didn't occur to me to take them with them.  I'm blog slacking.  Slogging.  We had a good time though, you marched through their house and I had a cocktail made from beets!  Yum man, some day you and I might have one of those together...maybe a mocktail.  

You've been all about climbing the stairs, and I keep not letting you because I have you younger than you are in my head for some reason...So today I set you free... I can't believe how willing you are to go up them all.  You'd do it several times if I'd take you down them right away... I look at those stairs and get tired.  To be fair you're only just not carrying yourself up them, and I've been carrying you and everything else we own up them for two years... 

...No...let's not let me get away with blaming you in any way shape or form.  Your Mama is lazy.  I'll work on it if you end up liking sports, k? :)
