Well it was a sad, sad day in our house today. I broke down and had to move the crib mattress down quite a few notches. I would not move it to the last hole, so I settled for the second to last one. Then I stood her in her crib with the side rail up, and that seems to be good. She would have to be superwomen to get out now. It means my baby is getting bigger. I remember thinking last summer what the winter would be like, and what she would be doing, and how fun it was going to be. She has exceeded my expectations, and when she lays her head on my chest when she is tired, my heart warms. I cannot imagine never being able to experience these things. Damn, now I need a tissue. Water works.
We played on the floor tonight after her bath and played clean up, clean up. That was of course after her bath. She was in the tub and somehow flopped forward onto her stomach, and then disrtessingly cried out "Ma ma ma ma". I believe that is a first. She must know her mama will help her out in a pinch. I also accidentally scratched her in the head also tonight,( yea I know way to go), and she did it again. She also says UP, but just randomly.
In my earlier post I forgot to mention the very cute bunny welcome sign I got from Cassie and Kameron. Thanks guys!! I love that stuff!!
We heard Carrington Ambulance rolled by mile marker 331 on I94 near Casselton about 3 am this morning. It had rained and they were transporting a patient that was not doing well. It was icey and I am sure they were in a hurry, and they rolled 2 times. The patient did not make it and the Paramedic in the back is having spine issues from the waist down, but does have some feeling. He is in MN getting rods put in his spine. Pray for him and his crew, and the patient please. That is oh so scarey to think about flying around in the back of a rig as it rolls. WE have had a few close calls with ours, such as going in the ditch and Nolan also required stitches because the driver had to stop fast, and he flew against the cabinets. Gettysburg, SD rolled one near Linton quite a few years ago, and we responded to them, and I remember feeling the dread of losing a patient because of an accident.
Speaking of crappy roads, anyone who has to travel tomorrow please be careful. WE are in the 5 to 8 inch area. I hope this is the last storm. It wouldn't be so bad if I could stay home, but I am out of vacation, and the hospital is always open.
Well it is late. Karady went to bed at 10:30 again, and now is my turn.
TTFN.

Post Birthday
Thank you to everyone the birthday wishes. I had a wonderful day with family, and eating, and great gifts. I got a new bag for my cricut, 2 certificats to the salon, money, a Target Gift card, and Nolan plopped Karady down on my lap and said Happy Birhthday, here is your gift. I laughed and said, Oh the gift that keeps giving. How true. Oh and today I got a beach towel from pam, which I needed because Karady does not have one yet.
The weather is frightful outside, and more to come I hear. Hope all of you have safe travel today. The end is near, but you can't see it, because there is a blizzard right now.
Did I mention I hate the time change. NOt so much when I didn't have kids, but defiantely now. How do you get a 9 month old to go to bed on time when it is not that time. SHe was up until 10:30 new time last night. Makes for a short night for both of us.
I stocked up on fruits and veges in Bismarck yesterday. All canned. No baby food. She protests baby food any more, and I won't fight with her. She is a very independent eater. I just hope she is getting enough to eat when she feeds herself. Last night on top of fruit and veges, she ate a whole piece of toast, minus a few pieces in the seat of her high chair.
Well lunch time.

And again
Well it seems we got LOTS of white stuff again here today. I opened the door out of the house, well barely got it open, and I was met by a 2 foot high drift. Luckily I had the truck to take Karady out to daycare, because the streets in town are full. Stupid me, I thought, you know I should have a cell phone with me, because I could easily get stuck from here to here.
Karady slept from 6:30 last night, until 6:30 this morning. She had a big day yesterday I guess, all that art work. Nolan said it was from the marker fumes. I didn't even give her her bath, so there a few remnant green marks on her hand from yesterday escapades. She amazes me with how fast she gets around now. I rolled her piggy bank money yesterday and got well over $150. I need to do something with it. I would like to put it in a college savings fund, but with the market the way it is, I would be better off sticking it under her crib.
Nolan took off the Fireman's convention today, leaving me with the car. We have come up with a back up plan in case the roads don't get plowed by 5. I plan to pack tonight for my weekend getaway across town. Going to load up the kids (dogs included) and stay at the Sannes', because I am on call and alone with LULU. We have wonderful food planned, scrapbooking, and maybe a facial. Note to self, don't forget my collection of chick flicks. I can run home if I do forget something, that is if they plow the streets. Maybe we can get in a game of Dominoes. The Pleinis' may come over Saturday to learn if they are not too tired from moving, if that is OK with the Sannes', another note to self, talk to Tammi about this.
Pray that Nolan gets to bismarck OK, the Plienis' get moved, and everyone is safe on the ugly roads and winter weather today. I heard we may get a repeat of 96 in March. Hopefully it is not the weekend I have planned for my scrapbooking retreat.

SNOW MUCH FUN
Does anyone else think that the snow can just stop??? I wish Karady was old enough to go sledding. NO I DON"T I don't want to wish away the years of my baby.
I have a terrible time keeping the blanket on the car seat when we go to and fro from Daycare. She gets an arm out and then the blanket starts to slide down over her head. That's the nosyness in her, wanting to see what is going on all around her.
Her tooth is not fully visible, but it is there. She still does not like solids, and some days I give up and just give her the bottle. Doesn't she know all the good stuff to come??? Icecream, candy, cookies, meat, and all my other favorites.
She does like her bath though. I have to plan differently, because I skipped it last night because the biggest loser was on, right at that time. Of course BEK hasn't gotten DVR yet, so I had to watch it. Oh well, no shows on tonight, so she can take a dip.
I keep thinking about going to the lake this summer and all the fun we will have. We already have a date for July 17th. I will have to get her a suit. The one I got, I am sure will be too small. She will probably need more than one. She will be one year old then. We can go strolling, and bike riding, and go to the pool. All those things I have longed to do for so long.
The clock is telling me it's time to go!

Snowy Day
Last night I was late from work, and Daycare kept the peanut for me late. When I got there she was sleeping, and DC said she was like a different kid. She has finally adjusted back to her old self. We are going to Sannes' for ribs and kraut tonight, as DH has a Fire meeting. SHe will stay with a paid sitter for only the second time on Sat. for the fireman's ball. She is really showing signs of stranger anxiety. I went to help a neighbor 2 nights ago, and took her with, and she cried a lot when I put her down, because she didn't recognize the place. I still don't think she likes her cereal, because most times she clamps her mouth shut and I have to make her laugh, and then quick shove it in.
She is due for her flu shot tomorrow, so I can get it any time. We are going to try to do it when we go up for her SSN. Still has a little cough, but that is getting better. Hates to have her nose sucked out, and is a very strong little girl.
Saw a friends baby for the first time today. Her name is Kennedy and I dream they will be friends and go to school together. Her mom is only one day older than me. Kennedy is only 19 days old; about the age when we got to bring Karady home. I don't remember her being that small. She fills my lap now, and is so very active. I told the baby's mom that she never like the swing, and she said you better keep it, maybe she still will. I laughed and told her not likely since she would try to climb out of it, and she sits on her own.
Well TTFN.
