Bribery

Ok I've read just about every parent book out there but the last two nights I've thrown their wisdom to the wind. Since Adalyn had stridor she has been getting in bed with us every night about two in the morning. I had it. I need sleep and her brother who is a full size monkey in my belly needed sleep so.... Bribery stepped in. Night before last I offered to take her to the zoo if she slept all night in her bed. She said, "Can I ride the train Mommy." Of course just sleep ALL night. AMAZINGLY she sleep till 7:00 without a peep. So last night I tried again. I told her she could go eat breakfast at MeMaws if she sleep all night. This morning she sleep till 8:30 and luckily my mom agreed to cook her breakfast. So any suggestions on what the bargain should be tonight? It takes three times to make a habit. That's what I'm hoping for anyways. I know, sometimes desperation lets good parenting fly out the window!

Under the Weather

Well last week we conquered Stridor and this week it a sinus infection. What's next? No really, Adalyn had Stridor last week but luckily her daddy caught it in time and she a quick recovery. Luckily I didn't know how serious it can be for children. Not sure what caused hers but we are ready for the next time. So today we are at home playing. Adalyn is feeling much better though.

Trick or Treat

Adalyn went trick or treating with her friends Avery and Alex. They had a blast. We rode on the golf cart to some of her other friends house for a hay ride. She and Daddy had a blast.

Elmo

Adalyn got to go see Elmo in New Orleans. SHe had a great time but I think she feels she may be a little old for Elmo. If it would have been Mickey Mouse she would have enjoyed it more.

Adalyn with her cute friend Meredith. Meredith had a blast and was really dancing up a storm at the Pumpkin Patch.

Doesn't it look like she is having fun? She conned MeMaw and MeMe to take a hayride.

Pumpkin Patch

Over the Halloween Holiday we went to the Pumpkin Patch with some of Adalyn's friends. She had a great time and keeps asking to go back. Everytime she sees a group of pumpkins she calls it a pumpkin patch.

Kisses

Adalyn was playing dress up. Here she is giving Paw a big kiss. I am sure she was trying to get something.
