DDA Chapter 23

[my3princes]

Deb - I'm so glad that Colby is feeling better! Hopefully you can work in a nap this morning.

Elin - I second the idea that if you are going to be sick, now is a better time than at Disney, however, we'll hope it's just something you ate yesterday!

Elizabeth - Good luck with Princess today! Can't wait to hear about the new baby!!!

It was a crazy night here. Timothy has gotten so used to waking up several times a night, and we are trying to get that to stop. He started crying at 11:45 p.m., and didn't stop until 1:30 a.m. I went into his room a couple of times to pat his back and try to settle him down, but it was tough. I hate letting him cry it out, but I know it has to be done. Once he finally went to sleep, he slept until 7:15 a.m. Hopefully tonight won't be as bad.

Not much on tap here, today. Timothy and I will hang around the house this morning. At 4:30 I get to go to the Middle School for Katie's first parent/teacher conference. I'm not too concerned about it as I've been tracking her grades on the computer and it looks like she has straight A's at this point. Her math grade may dip after today, but not lower than a B+. I'm really proud of how hard she has been working.

Later tonight I get to go to my first pack meeting as a Webelos leader. Jacob is excited about that! Should be fun! I need to sew some patches onto his shirt, so that will take up some time this morning.

Have a great day, everyone!

Hang tough Glynis. Colby was the only one that we let cry it out and it took 2 entire weeks before he finally got it. He is now our best sleeper Enjoy being a Webelos leader. I've been there and done that and had a lot of fun along the way. It ended up being quite time consuming though Chris is doing Tiger Scouts with Colby as I know if I start I'll get sucked right back in. I have such a hard time saying "no"

Elin,
Oh no! Hope it goes away fast.

Glynis,
Good luck with Timothy. My Daniel was like that but it took a long time for him to sleep through the night.

Deb,
Glad Colby's doing well this morning.

Elizabeth,
Have fun meeting your new baby!

My baby has arrived safely!!

Congratulations on your baby girl What did they name her?

Congratulations Elizabeth!

What cute name are you going to come up with for her???

I will PM her name.

Congratulations Elizabeth!

I will have to see her. And hold her. And get to know her a bit before I dub her with a nickname. I never had nicknames in mind for my others - they just happened.

I call DS "Baboo". Sometimes it slips out in public.

I'll have to remember that.

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

I'll have to remember that.

He'll be thrilled.

Yesterday at Improv class they "roasted" each other. Somebody told him he looks like a cross between Ron Weasley and Draco Malfoy.

The strange/eerie/freaky thing is that after class the instructor told DS that he was worried that DS would take the roast personally and get upset. DS did NOT get upset and the instructor told him he was proud of him. DS says he has never gotten upset at Theater, so the Improv instructor must be SCARY intuitive to know that about DS.

Yes, if DS had red hair he would totally resemble Weasley!

Elizabeth you'll be super proud of me. I've been picking up shorts and shirts for Chris and the boys for next summer as I stumble across them on clearance. I just put them all in a tote so they'll be ready for our trip next summer I guess I've started packing I still need to find matching shirts for a bunch of shorts that I picked up and I have NO idea what size Colby will need. He seems to be my wild card.

 

[tinknme]

Elin I hope you are feeling better

Deb glad to hear Colby is felling well.

Glynis have fun tonight!

Elizabeth congratulations to momboss

Deb and Anne Marie - thank you so much! Deb, the towel is too cute and I can't wait to get the sunglasses on him! Anne Marie, Bob loves the outfit! I hope he'll be able to wear it next year for football season!

Packing is good!

Elizabeth, congrats to mom boss.

Thanks!!

The baby is fabulous. She is SOOOO tiny! 6 lb. 4 oz. and 18 inches. Princess was so fascinated by the balloons and flowers she barely gave the baby a second look.

In other news...
DS has been cast as The Baker! That is the largest male lead in the play!! I hope he does well!

Wow! I know it's not the part he wanted most, but congrats to DS!

 

[Pooh67_68]

Elizabeth, tell DS I said congrats, break a leg (or would he take that literally?).

Thanks!! I am hoping he is not terribly disappointed NOT to be Jack.

Elizabeth, tell DS I said congrats, break a leg (or would he take that literally?).

Yes, there is that possibility.

Congrats to DS!!! and your nanny family. What a good day in your house.

Abi didn't make it into Jazz Band but didn't realize she could have tried out on the Baritone, also. She is glad she said because she doesn't like anybody in the band. Hey!! At least she tried out.
