Having a newborn and staying up until 1 or 2 am the night before, I let myself sleep in yesterday (sleeping in is 8 am to me). This is normally ok to do because my daughter who is 2 and a half can't turn doorknobs. Well, yesterday she figured out how to open doors with doorknobs (her bedroom) and basically wandered the house for a few hours before I came out of our bedroom. She had by then found all sorts of "fun" things to do in this time like get into our 50 pound bag of flour and cover herself and in about 5 pounds of it and then proceed to "plant" the potatoes in the flour. It basically took me all day to just clean up the mess she made (though I am very happy to say that she did get several wet wash cloths and mop up the floor all by herself). I am still finding things she got into but the flour was the real mess.
In other news, I am in charge of finding a new place to live in Fort Myers, FL. With the roomies leaving at the end of the month we can't afford to stay in our apartment for another year. The list of things we HAVE TO HAVE are 2 bedrooms, washer and dryer or washer and dryer hookups, centrally located to the hospitals in the area and it has to be under 700 dollars a month (actually we have 700 dollars a month for all housing costs like rent, power, water and anything else they might tack on...) so we are really praying for something to show up. I would really love a lanai, but it is not necessary.
Oh my, what a present your daughter left you. I bet you'll laugh at this one day, did you take any pictures?
ReplyDeleteWow those are some tough specifics to fill on the new apartment. But nothing is impossible for God now is it?
Wow, what a way to wake up!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are able to find the perfect apt. in a nice neighborhood where you can walk with the kiddos.
I know what a drag that is with a newborn. After my first was born we had to find a place and move within a month of her birth. So good luck to you!
