A Day in the Life

Last weekend we had our first visitor! Nick, Zac’s freshman roommate, came to Dallas to interview for medical school and stayed with us for a couple of nights. We had a great time showing him the town, or as much of it as we could with a 2 month old baby in tow. I was worried that Adelyn would keep him up at night, but surprise! She slept through the night while he was here! 9:30pm to 7:30am. The last time she slept all the way through the night was in December, but she hasn’t done it since. I, of course, woke up at 3:30am expecting her to get up then, which is when she normally wakes to eat. I went back to bed but woke again at 5:30, sure that NOW she would be waking me up to eat. She didn’t, but I couldn’t sleep, knowing that any minute she would start fussing and wanting to eat. So I laid there for 2 hours, halfway conscious, waiting for her to “wake me up”. Has anyone else ever done this?

We took Nick to the Coppell Deli for a Stubb (best breakfast sandwich in the country, according to John Madden), Market Street for some Bluebell Ice Cream, and to our house for some Mario Kart fun. Nick doesn’t own a TV, so we had to show him how much fun the Wii is. We hope, for his future patient’s sakes, he continues his studies as usual, despite the excitement that the Wii may have caused. If you want to play Mario Kart with us, send us your license number, we like to play with friends online!

Happy Martin Luther King Jr day! Did everyone but Zac get work off? He said there was absolutely no traffic going downtown today, because apparently, people don’t work on MLK day! Maybe he gets president’s day off…

Okay, now for what you really want. Pictures of Adelyn from the last couple of weeks:
