Pretty busy day at our place.
My mouth is still hurting pretty bad but I'm taking less and less pain meds again because I hate taking them.
Cassandra got up about her normal time, daddy wasn't home yet because he did a little grocery shopping on the way home, so I got up with her. We survived our first night sleeping in cloth diapers like a champ!! I was so so so very happy!
She got to enjoy quite a bit of play time with daddy when he came home. I know because I could hear her happily babbling away from down the hall. I snatched her up while he was prepping her breakfast, thinking she would calm down with a little nursing. She was chilly in just her diaper so I cuddled her wrapped in my Nightmare Before Christmas blanket. She wriggled around a lot for a few minutes and then to my surprise she fell asleep.
I didn't need any further prompting to sleep some more myself and boy did it feel great!
Fast forward through her actually eating breakfast and boring chores getting done. Tim went out and loosened up the last garden plot for me! My two kinds of pumpkins and the melons (also two types) are finally in the ground! We'll wait and see what survives. I hope quite a bit!! My pepper plants look amazing, the cauliflower and butternut squash look alright. The tomatoes are a bit iffy. Especially the cherries. So bummed! All fruits and veggies have been planted at least into temporary pots. Next up HOPEFULLY, the side of the house where my flowers are supposed to go. It's frustrating that all my hard work ripping all the grass and weeds out was a total waste.
More on the Tiny Viking front:
She had a few more little naps, was super cranky because of this whole teething nonsense (I do NOT like seeing her so upset). I kept her as occupied as possible letting her play with one of Porky's old drumsticks for a while (sorry Daddy) and even her dumping a whole bin of toys and spreading them all over the living room.
She decided to read to Leo the Bear tonight.
She was flipping pages and shoving them in the bears face. Repeatedly. A little (okay, a LOT) more forceful than when I read to her. But, she has the concept down I think.
I can't get over how much she loves Leo. She shrieks in excitement every time she sees him. Hugs him close, kisses him, wrestles with him, talks to him and all with the biggest smile on her face. I had been starting to feel a little buyers remorse/guilt over spending money on him. The level of excitement she gets is worth a thousand times more than I spent. So I'm not going to let it bother me any more.
