One Nap or Two?

Today was a fun day! It started with a bang as we all got in the car to go tie up a few ends at the condo we were living in prior to our house. Now there should be no reason that we ever have to go back there. Not that it was miserable, it was definitely a blessing to be able to live there for a year. But, I like our house and would prefer to stay here!

We ran a few other errands and got back home just in time for Tim to turn around and go to work. Poor guy has to be exhausted! This afternoon Karoline and I went to the pool and we had a great time. The pool was adorable, it was just the right size. So many pools are so big and overwhelming for little ones, this one was the perfect size! Surprisingly enough the pool did not wear down Karoline and she still was going non stop when we got home. But of course I was pooped after pretty much running home so that she wouldn't be in the direct sun for too long. I swear this girl goes non stop and really wouldn't sleep if she didn't have to. We have been trying to get Karoine down to one nap and it seems to be going ok, we will see how it continues to go. Unfortunately she still seems to be waking up at least once a night. However, there will be a day that she doesn't need me in the middle of the night so I will enjoy it and try very hard to view every wake up as a blessing. A blessing that my sweet baby can cry and I will come. I'm very thankful to be a stay at home mom and thus wake ups are part of the job!

The rest of the afternoon was spent just playing and having a few snacks and dinner. My darling daughter likes to now throw her food on the ground just as soon as I've gotten around the corner to grab my dinner ... it's adorable (ok, not). But thank goodness we have hard floors under our table now.

I think I can see another tooth coming in on the bottom of Karoline's mouth, this one too is crooked. I really hope that as they pop through they turn a bit and straighten out. Even if they don't I know they will still be adorable.

Tomorrow is the 4th of July, my favorite holiday. I am looking forward to spending it with my little family. It's a much needed break after a few long days.

Well, I think that's about it for me. I'm ready to enjoy our new couches and just relax for a few minutes before bed!
