Well today started off in a weird way. I was scheduled to visit the University of Delaware. The alarm was set for 5:45am, CJ's bag was packed and we were all set to go. At 7:00am this morning the doorbell rang. It was my mother and brother who I was supposed to be waiting for, with CJ, all set to go. I overslept! I guess I hung out too late last night...boy am I getting old! With that said, yesterday was a very filled day. CJ went to the babysitter. Mommy and Daddy needed to go handle some business, Mommy needed her hair done, and Daddy had a meeting to attend. How I wish I had last weekend back, but we kept it moving. CJ had a great day at the sitter. When Mommy called you could hear her in the background. I guess she was keeping the folks entertained. It has been a month since she saw them last and she has changed so much. She is trying to communicate, she is standing and her teeth are coming in rapidly. She is really growing and Daddy is trying to keep up.
So as you read earlier, Daddy overslept so CJ did not make the trip. Daddy wanted to give Mommy a break and he screwed that up. Come on Daddy, get things right! After Daddy was halfway through the tour he texted Mommy to tell her that maybe it was best that CJ did not make the trip. It was very hot out and she would have been miserable in all that heat. She might have enjoyed the ice cream we received at the end of the day, though. Once home Daddy wanted to show CJ how to clean up after herself, but he failed. He ended up cleaning and CJ continued to play with what she wanted.
Today Daddy bathed the Diva. Now, Mommy has warned me that bath time has become very interesting. I went into it with optimism but ended with a wet shirt and needing to sit down. CJ now is all over the place. She splashes, she gets up, she flops, and she tries to get out of both tubs. I had to tell her several times to sit down, get back in the tub, let me finish. It was a battle in there and I would say that we had a draw. Daddy will come back with another game plan for the next time he and CJ enter the ring. Or CJ could do the honors of bathing herself. I am serious people, and after that she can continue to put her diaper on, grease her skin and then fix her drink. I know my thoughts are way out the box but if she wants to get all excited during bath time instead of letting Daddy do what he needs to do then independence will be hers.
So now CJ is fighting her sleep. Instead of letting her Mommy enjoy this great cobbler Daddy baked this evening. So now the stage is set for the next bath fight between Daddy and CJ. Who will win? Cast your vote people, I will let you know next Friday night who wins. You keep praying folks, prayer is STILL changing things, people, and situations.
