This morning she watched me make eggs with much amusement! After a good breakfast, brushed teeth and hair, we were out the door to day care with no problems. Right now she's trying so hard to get her own socks and shoes on, so giving her a head start on that task gives me some good free time to get myself together in the mornings since Paul's been out early all week. She is getting easier and easier right now to get ready to go in the morning, as long as I include her in the details (how about THIS shirt and pants? How about eggs? How about we go brush your teeth, yay!). You get the idea.
Once at school today I was mortified to learn that only my daughter and one other were actually there today. I guess the other parents took off and took their toddlers with them so out of mommy guilt I told them I'd pick Anna up after her lunch today. More than anything else I could tell already that Anna will be bored without her buddies. I don't have much planned today at work so I'm flexible. But it's Paul's schedule at his clinic that is requiring us to stay later before heading to Austin tonight for Thanksgiving at my mom's. His last patient is at 4pm and then he's got to pack up all his junk that's required to fry a turkey and who knows what else. So I imagine we'll actually get out the door tonight at 7pm.
This 7pm departure time means cranky Anna in the car ride because this child will not sleep in her car seat. Occasionally she'll nap mid-day if absolutely necessary but as far as night trips go, she just wants to be in her own comfy bed. No sleeping sitting up for this one. So this will be such a fun car ride tonight!
Pray for us.
