Noly's First Carnival

Today, Noly's preschool had a Carnival. I took my lunch break early and went to be with her. They had a hayride...quite bumpy I must say...a picture, a pinata and some booths. I was surprised that she was afraid of the pinata. It was a purple bat, and she wouldn't go near it until the teacher finally ripped it open and let the candy fall to the ground. Then, she very carefully picked up one piece at a time and put it in her bag...not the mad rush I expected. We had a nice time, and she gladly stayed behind to eat her candy. I was afraid she would want to leave with me.

Jule had a decent evening last night. Miriam and Elizabeth came over and brought Noly a gift, and Jule smiled over and over at Elizabeth. It was adorable! He ended up falling asleep with his 8:00 bottle and slept until 1:30 AM. Then, he woke up crying and chugged a whole 8 ounces. What am I going to feed this baby? He eats SO much. I've noticed in the past few days that not as much is coming up also. I'm really hoping he is outgrowing whatever has been wrong, but I don't really know what is wrong. We see the Pediatrician today for Noly's 3-year checkup, and I'll ask him where we stand in terms of a Specialist appointment.

I am completely exhausted from being awake from 1:30-3am. Kevin fed Jule, but he was crying a lot, so I couldn't sleep. Then, the alarm went off at 5:30...way too early. Kevin will be out of town tonight, so I need to be awake enough this evening to get the two kids through baths, etc. I think he's only staying out one night, and that will help.
