Fever

Once Daddy arrived back from his meeting and we all came home we discovered that CJ had a slight fever. After Daddy ran back out to CVS and Mommy bathed her we hope she gets better. Only problem is that when Mommy laid her down CJ found the open lotion Daddy left out. She looked like a monster when Mommy asked Daddy to come in and see what she had done. All Daddy could do was laugh at his Princess, what will we do with CJ?

What Is Labor Day?

Well on the way back from the mountains Daddy received a call from his Daddy. The question posed was why we did not call CJ this morning? Daddy's answer was because he would not have but Mommy answered that she slept late. In any event it was Labor Day, right? Well no because daddy rested only a little bit. Daddy is the number one proponent in ending this ridiculous holiday. The fact of the matter is that, a Monday off to Daddy is wasted because on Tuesday you have to go back to work. Daddy proposes that we now make Labor Day a Friday. This way at least you do not have to wake up the next morning for work. I wonder how far that thought would go.

CJ was glad to see us when we arrived. She enjoyed her time with her grandparents and cousins. Her great-grandmother even says, that we do not have to worry about her defending herself because she did that well in dealing with her big cousin Briyanna!
CJ is a tough cookie, feisty when she wants to be as well. Daddy and Mommy are getting her in check though.

She went to sleep rather quietly tonight, Daddy guesses she was tired. It is back to our normal routine full on tomorrow. Let us see how things go. Let us also pray that CJ is a little more adjusted with the new sitter.

CJ Bounced

Today Daddy and Mommy attended a wedding out of town. This meant that CJ had to stay with Grandma. When we dropped her off Mommy said goodbye and CJ was off. CJ did not even look back. Now Daddy is glad she did not cry, but she could have at least recognized Daddy and Mommy were leaving. Oh well, Daddy had a blast at the wedding and he hopes CJ did as well.

9-3-11

We stayed home most of the day. Lazy and eating. Not a good thing.

Not A Good Morning

Cj did not have a good morning. She cried when we dropped her off today. When we picked her up she was a little better but CJ is clearly missing her Mommy. The time they spent together this summer meant a lot to her and now her routine is changing drastically and CJ is not taking it well.

On the way home she did tell bothe Mommy and Daddy that she like the new sitter which is a good thing. Daddy just prays that her comfort level continues to grow. That would make all of our days easier to cope with. As Daddy left out for a football game tonight he told CJ he loved her and CJ told him she loved him back. As Daddy keeps saying, "CJ is his partner!"

No Worries Mommy

Well today was CJ's first day with the new babysitter. This is a day that the family has been anticipated all summer long. Well today we all woke up and started the day in prayer of course. We then left out towards Perth Amboy. We arrived at the sitter and Daddy watched CJ survey her new surroundings. She clung to Mommy a little bit but warmed up well. Daddy waved to her and told her bye and Mommy did the same. Praise God, not one peep out of CJ. When Mommy called Daddy later in the day she informed him that she still had not cried.

When we arrived to pick Cj up the sitter let us no that CJ did not ask for Mommy, but she did ask for her Daddy. CJ is Daddy's partner and they have a great connection. They are like to peas ina pod. Daddy prays that tomorrow will be just like today. The new sitter seems to know her stuff. We will continue to pray that she and CJ mesh well, as well as CJ with the other children she will now be interacting with.

A Park Kid

Daddy received a picture from his sister with the disclaimer that CJ had been accepted as a Certified Park Kid. Mommy went out tonight, finally and Daddy had a meeting at church. he was going to take CJ with him but figured she would enjoy the park more and he was right. Her great-grandmother said that she walked around the park with her. It is nice that CJ is able to see history as she grows, not many people will see back three generations in their family. Once we came home today CJ did not put up to much fuss, she went to sleep a little quicker than normal and we are thankful.
