Expect the unexpected

1. It was just yesterday that I wrote about the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad sleep habits of my sweet, darling, animated, energetic daughter. So, naturally, last night she would have her best night of sleep EVER. In a portable crib. Sheesh. She went to sleep somewhere between 8:30 and 8:45. We heard a peep or two during the night, but she never fully woke and she nevery stood up and jumped up and down screaming in the crib. At 5:30 this morning, I heard, "Mommy. Mommy." No crying, no fuss. I went over and picked her up and she wanted "Muck, muck, muck," so I nursed her, and even put her back in her crib where she slept for another hour.

2. We were going to leave for Jason's parents' tomorrow. Then all the weather reports were saying that there was going to be a fairly significant storm and our only chance to get out would be this morning before the storm unless we waited until after Christmas. So, last night, we packed up, and we fully planning on heading out early this morning. We are still here. Why? Well, late last night, the weather report changed. Ice and sleet this morning, but then it's supposedly going to warm up so that we will only see rain tomorrow. Now, we are again leaving tomorrow. And it's a good thing. There's not much in the way of ice and sleet here, but just a bit south (and area we would have to drive through) there are power outages and trees down from the ice they got. Let's hope for a smooth trip tomorrow!
