T Minus 4 and Counting...
Only 4 more nights until my little girl is taken away...
The IL's are taking Drama Queen to Niagara Falls NY for 12 fun-filled days without Mommy & Daddy. We have been planning it all summer and I have been dreading it the entire time. While it will be nice to not have to deal with the temper tantrums and other "blessings" that come along with a 2 year old, I am so going to miss my baby. The longest I have ever gone without seeing her was 4 days. And that was for a work conference. Every time I think about it I start to cry.
What will I do for 12 days?
Granted I will still have Wildman with me. Alpha Male and I have been discussing whether we want to wean him from his pacifier during this time. Part of me wants to since he hasn't become so attached that it is annoying. We are hoping the MIL will "lose" DQ's while there and if I can get WM off it too then we are a "diddy-free" home! Whoo hoo! But the other more sensible part knows that I should wait since we will be making the drive with him August 31st to go up there to get her an spend a week camping.
What to do?
Then there is the big boy bed. We bought Wildman a twin bed at a yard sale recently for $20! It is actually the top bunk of those wooden bunk beds with the bookcase headboard. It is eally close to the ground so we thought it would be perfect. I bought him new sheets and a compforter and everything for it. I am kinda ready for the move, but I don't know how he will be. He is just now getting the hang of how to get down off of things and I am terrified that he will fall. We always have Drama Queens toddler bed if we need it, but it isn't musch lower than the twin and we have a rail for it. What would you do?
I have so much more to say, but I don't want to bore you. I am probably going to be MIA for a while. I have been putting off a major project and I have to get motivated and do it. My job is on the line in December if I don't do a good job. I will try to post at least once a week though so that everyone knows that I am alive.
Have a good one!
