Sleep..........

It's amazing how much difference a good night of sleep makes. Since we got home, Kennedy had been sleeping in spurts through the night and having her big sleep during the day. So we decided to do our best to keep her up all day, with just a short nap, and put her to bed around 8ish. We did this on Sunday, with help from Aunt Kim, Uncle Mark and cousins Breanna and Chloe. Still, Sunday night she was waking up several times through the night, but I felt like we were heading in the right direction. Yesterday she had a couple of 1 hour naps and was ready for bed by 8pm last night. I went to bed at the same time, prepared to be woken up within a few hours. We I finally woke up, it was 4:30 a.m. I was so happy I could hardly get back to sleep. Now for the best part...Kennedy didn't wake until 8 a.m.!!! Then we got up and headed off to Greenfield School to see some friends, then to Aunt Kim's work...this afternoon our friend Ruth dropped by with some homemade soup and biscuits (Thanks Ruth) and we're heading to Grammie and Grampie Milligan's for supper! Will she make it through another night? We'll see...

We went to Charlottetown yesterday to welcome home Roshandra, Catherine and Kevin. It was Roshandra's birthday!! Nice to have everyone home safe and sound and start our new lives together...
