All by ourselves...well, not really!

Sunday was our first night without a Grandma in the house. Grandma Leyendecker left at 8:45 and Shelby was asleep. The night went okay. Shelby is up for a 3 to 4 hour span at night, which is not fun. Monday mommy and Shelby were alone until noon. Grandma and Grandpa Leyendecker came by for lunch and Grandma stayed until daddy got home. It was a rough morning adjusting to being by ourselves because mommy was very tired. Today has gone better. It is 1pm and Shelby has slept all morning. Mommy has gotten a nap and feels relatively good. Last night Shelby slept from 8:45 - 12:20, which was very promising except then she did not go back to sleep until 4 something. Daddy seems to have the touch and mommy finally broke down and woke him up at 4. Of course, he was able to put her asleep in no time. Grandma Leyendecker should be here soon and mommy is hoping to get to put dinner together for the first time since she had Shelby.

Sunday, Patrick (Ross' college roommate) and Laurie McKinney came by to see Shelby and brought mommy and daddy a homemade apple pie. Ross said we need to hurry up and have another kid so that we can get another one of Laurie's apple pies.
