It was a busy and fun day today. hung out this morning after another horrible restless night. I dont know why but she is waking at night ALOT. Not always crying, sometimes just whining like she is in pain or uncomfortable, super super gassy. Sometimes she wakes screaming. When/if I put her in bed with me she sleeps better but is still restless, rolling all over, kicking etc. (Sometimes I think she needs to trasnsition into a toddler bed, sometimes i think she is too young for that. When she gets stuck in the crib bars or even rolls into them she wakes up....but in the same breath i think she would get out of a toddler bed when she wakes up. This could be dangerous. )
We then went into town in hopes of going to a play area with gabs and dre but i staked out the jordan creek mall and my sister the valley west mall and there wasnt a parking spot to be found at either mall. Its nuts. I figured with the holidays being over the malls would be bare. I guess most people had today off though. We will have to try again next week.
We met rudy after a test he had to take for work and we wnet to lunch. VE loves to see her daddy and its fun when she doesnt expect it. She was perfect perfect perfect at the restauarant. I was soo proud.
We came home and played alot and the took a bath. Now that she has a lot of new bath toys from Christmas and a baby she bathes with her she is in love with baths. She would stay in there all night. Its cute. She washes' her babies hair, ears and pours water on her head like i do her. Its too cute. She is learning to tip her head back and thinks its so funny.
Tonight I got to do laundry at the laundry mat. First time since college (and that was very rare- maybe once.) Not as bad as I thought- in fact, it was nice to sit in there by myself and read and look at cookbooks and just get some breathing time in. Not that I want to hang out there everynight but it was okay. I was scared at first and asked my mom a bunch of questions. But it was super clean and the owner came in to check on everyone and sweep up. Im not scared anymore! haha
Vaughn's rash is looking much better. It is still there but lessening by the day....except for her poor face, which is still pretty bad.
have a good weekend everyone!

Meghan, I totally don't mind the laundry mat, you get laundry done all at once!! Ok, I wouldn't want to do it all the time, but I have had to on occasion when my washer or dryer has broken. One time I had so much laundry and it was overwhelming me, so I just went to the laundry mat for like 2 hours or so and boom it was done, came home and put it away. By the way, thats a business idea of mine, a super cool laundry mat with good music going and a coffee bar, I even have a name Laundry and Latte, just no money plus I don't really know if it would work. I used to go to Duds and Suds when John and I were first married in Urbandale, they didn't serve coffee, they served beer, so laundry was noooo problem at all, in fact you didn't want to leave the laundry mat. Too funny to think back on those days. Sorry for rambling, I'm right there with you though, there are worse things than a laundry mat!!! Barb
There was one in Iowa City that I just dropped mine off at a drive thru drop off once but went in to pick it up and they had pool tables and big couches, big screen tvs, it was super nice....but no coffee.. thats a great idea! You should totally do it! Id work there:)
