Single Parenting, Day 3

Okay, so today was good! We stayed at home other than a trip up to Michael's to get this for Claire's upcoming birthday bash. We could have done lots of running around, but I wanted to reestablish a good napping schedule. Mission accomplished: she slept nearly 2 hours this morning and about 45 minutes this afternoon. She slept from 6p.m. to 5:45 this morning WITHOUT WAKING. I'm so proud of you, Claire Bear! :)

I dressed her in her new apples and pears dress that I ordered from Etsy. Ohmygawdyouguys, is it adorable. I'm definitely going to dress her in it for her party next week. Her baby blues just pop when wearing it.

I love, love, love the wispy little curls of hair behind her ears.

I heard from Huz yesterday and he arrived safely - hadn't slept much at all - but is safe. I hope that your presentation goes well, babe! Due to the 6 hour time difference, I have no idea if that took place last night at 3a.m. or tonight at 3a.m., but, regardless, I hope it goes really well and that you feel good about it.

Here's some pictures that Huz took of Claire and I after her bath a few weeks ago. Isn't she CUTE!? (Oh, and do you like my hair cut?)
