early bird

I am not a morning person by any means. If I have to get up early for something, I have to set my alarm 30 minutes ahead so I can hit snooze a few times before I have to actually get up, and I still have to draaaaag myself out of bed. I am much more of a night owl. So this mommy thing really took some getting used to, but I am VERY lucky to have a daughter who is a pretty good sleeper. In the past week though, she has decided that she wants to start waking up at 6am. Umm...not good for mommy!! Especially since she doesn't normally go down for good at night until about 11:30-12, and then I stay up later than that to check email, finish laundry or dishes, or whatever I need to get done before the next day. So I don't usually hit the bed until 1-2am. This was great when she was sleeping till 11am! Then she gradually starting waking up earlier and earlier...9:30am...then 8:30am....then 6am. No no no!! So this morning she tried to wake up at 6, she starting doing her little grunting/whining thing to let me know she was up, so I decided to try to give her her paci and see if she would go back to sleep. She keep whining but not crying or anything and then I fell back asleep. Next thing I knew she was whining/grunting again and it was 9am! GOOD GIRL!!!! I can handle 9am. I can even handle 8am. I can't do 6am!!!! We will save that for when she has to go to school!!

So I think in a little while Maddy and I are going to the station to eat some boiled shrimp and crabs with Mitch. Yummy! I don't know what I did last night in my sleep but I woke up this morning and 3 of my toes on my right foot hurt really bad! Like I can't walk on them! So I have been hobbling around all day. They are starting to not hurt so bad now so who knows. I also noticed in the bathtub yesterday that I have a huge bruise on the side of my left knee. What is going on!! I have mysterious injuries!

Anyway, here is some pictures from bathtime last night. Maddy was so happy during her bath, but I guess she did not like my plans to watch the Bachelor because she decided to scream the whole time I was trying to watch. But here are some pictures!
