You went to your first wedding last evening. Our good friends Kate and Rafael were tying the knot! Kate had been staying with us a couple nights a week since this spring as she works on her PhD project. Therefore all along we have discussed whether or not we would be able to make it to the wedding. But things have overall been going well and your dad and I find we do our best when we stay busy and do things as we normally would. We decided to skip the ceremony as you were fussy all day!

This allowed dad and I to relax and eat and enjoy ourselves!
We got home around 10:30 and were both tired but feeling good about life! Then you had your best night yet! You slept in your pack n play from midnight to 3am and then again until about 6am!!!

It is amazing how one night of "better" sleep can improve one's spirits! It is also funny how my version of "good" sleep has changed!
