4/28/2011 142 Days Old

April 28th, 2011

On the 142nd day in the life of the most beautiful girl in the history of the world the morning began peacefully. I thought that I would make it our the door without waking up Maya and Erin. I was wrong. Just before I left Maya started to wake up. I got to hold her for a little bit, and then I decided to change her diaper and her clothes. She was stinky and I thought I would help Erin out. 5 minutes later Maya was wailing and Erin was awake. OOPS. Maya eventual was able to get back to sleep after I left. Erin was not.

While I was at work Michelle came over to help take care of Maya. After she left Erin got to take Maya for a walk. It was a beautiful day, and I am sure that at least Erin got to enjoy it.  Maya slept through the whole thing, which is better than she has done before.

This evening Grandma Kathy came over and brought chipotle. We spent the night cleaning the house and preparing for Erin’s big party tomorrow. The house is spotless. Now if I can only talk the dogs into keeping it that way. We need our rest tonight. We will have more people over tomorrow than we have ever had in our house. It looks like the weather will cooperate, and we can hangout on the deck and around the fire pit. I think it will be fun. The best part is that Erin’s friends are planning the party and taking care of every thing. It sounds good to me.
