Kylie May's, Mommy is back, but where is Daddy day 317

Although they survived the night, Craig didn't have a chance to write much about yesterday in the blog, so... here is an update for the past two days.

Yesterday Kylie got to spend time with her second cousin Liam. Emily and Liam came over and we took a walk with the wagon to Olive Market. They were so cute riding together, but by the time we walked back Kylie is in asleep in the Ergo carrier and Emily was carrying Liam. I'm sure we were an interesting site, two moms, holding two babies, pulling a wagon full of stuff :o) The weather was perfect, around 75 degrees, so warm while we were walking that we both wished we would have dressed the little ones in short sleeve outfits. I love January in Southern California! When we got home Kylie napped, played, ate and got ready for her night without Mommy. As far as I know the night went well, no tears. She had a nice bath, story time and fell asleep in the Ergo.

They were both awake when I got home this morning. We had a wonderful breakfast, Kylie got to eat the same things Craig and I did, scrambled eggs, sliced avocado and homemade sweet potato fries, yummm. Craig then dropped Kylie off at my parents on his way to church while I went to sleep. My mom has been teaching in Hawaii for the past 3 weeks and was so eager to see little Miss May. Kylie was happy to see her grandma too! They played, ate and took a nap. When I woke this afternoon around one, Kylie was just on her way back home. Craig then got called in to work, he was supposed to work tonight at 7, but they asked if he would work from 2pm-2:30am instead. He said yes and was on his way. The rest of the day consisted of a lot of nursing, cuddling, a long (2.5hour) nap, dinner at the grandparents, a bath and Downton Abby (this show and sports are the only thing our little one has ever watched on TV, we hope the British accent wears off on her :o)) Melissa has started her new job as an nurses aid in the post partum floor at Redlands Community Hospital. She will be gone 2-10pm 2-3 nights a week, we miss her when she is gone, but she is enjoying the work so far.

More to come soon,
Natalie

All packed up and ready to go walking

Kylie really enjoys looking at all the rocks in our rock garden.

After moving a couple rocks she decided to dig a little, then she was not so sure about the dirt on her hand.

Kylie today after our long nap together.

We have been trying to teach her how to use a straw, but she just thinks is it a fun toy to chew on.

My finger got in the way, but I still love her little smile. Because our bed is on the floor, she enjoys crawling on to it and throwing herself on the pillows.
