Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great long weekend. Nana and grandpa watched Ms Evie while we went to see the DaVinci Code and then grandma watched Evie while we went to church, brunch and ran errands on Sunday. It was nice to get some couple time and good practice for me to be away from Evie since I go back to work in 2 weeks. I can't believe how fast the time is going.

On Saturday night Evie slept from 7:30 until 1 which was really good for her. But on Sunday night she slept from 7:30 until 3:15--just 15 minutes shy of 8 hours! That was a crazy long time and I enjoyed the extra sleep. Max was 'up' with her most of Sunday night (let me go to bed early) so he didn't get to relax as much and said he was getting worried and kept checking on her since it was such a long time for her to sleep. Last night she only slept 4 hours in a row but she slept almost all day yesterday so I guess that's fair! I would love for her to be able to sleep 7-8 hours in a row (but maybe not from 7 p.m.-3...maybe we can get her to shift to a different schedule once both of us are back at work.

Today we got a chest freezer delivered, the driveway was sealed and then tomorrow bulk pick-up is coming and PQ has surgery to remove a weird lump from his side. Thursday we are going to Shadowbox and then Saturday we are going to try out Dream Dinners which seems like a neat idea and hopefully we will like it. Basically, you go and prepare meals there (they have the ingredients all chopped/diced/prepared and you just assemble based on your tastes). The meals can then be frozen until you are ready to eat and each meal serves 4-6 people so we figure we can get 2 dinners out of every meal. We'll let you know how it goes!

We may also go to the Arts Festival and/or the Strawberry Festival this weekend, so busy, busy week!

Good luck trying to get her to change her 7-3 sleeping hours. I tried to get Matt to change by waking him at 10 for a feeding. He still woke up between 2 and 3! Maybe Evie will be more cooperative than her daddy was!
