Thursday -- Nothing Too Exciting

Mommy D back at the blog. Gracie awoke at 1:00 a.m. and tried mightily to fall back asleep, but just couldn't do it. She thought it might be fun to play with her cow flashlight that moo's. Mommy didn't seem to think that was such a good idea. So instead I walked and bounced her and she finally fell asleep about 2:00 a.m. Then at 6:15 a.m. when she was supposed to wake up, she didn't think that was such a good idea.

Gracie had a good day at daycare. Daddy dropped her off and picked her up. On the way home from daycare Gracie shoved her fist in her mouth, gagged herself, and threw up in her car seat. We suspect she has a sore throat, that seems to be the only time she sticks her fingers in her throat. I also have a sore throat, so that would make sense. When I pulled in the driveway, daddy and Gracie were outside, but Gracie was looking mighty sad. We took her in the house and I rocked her for a good 10 minutes before she seemed to be ready to perk up a bit.

Gracie was quite clingy all night. We rubbed her with firm pressure on her back and arms like we were shown yesterday and that seemed to really calm her. She ate a big supper and even got some Halloween M&M's for dessert. I had a few on the table that I forgot to eat and later in the night Gracie discovered them and had a second treat. She thought it quite hilarious when I asked her if she was stealing mommy's M&M's.

We received a call today that Gracie's new orthotics have arrived. Now why couldn't this have happened yesterday when Jeff was off with her for the full day. Now I have to figure out when we can work in a fitting.

It took Gracie about two seconds to fall asleep tonight. She was one tired girl...and so is her mommy. So I'll say goodnight.

Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
