Dr. visit

Today is Anyssa's visit to Dr. Ochs, a pediatrician who specializes in international adoption. We're not sure exactly what to expect...we also need to get some paperwork filled out so we can begin the registration process for school.  Since Dr. Ochs office is a couple of blocks down from Jim's studio, we're planning on stopping by to say HEY to Jim and show Anyssa the printing process and how he does his art.

Up until last night, the sleeping process had gotten better. She had been going down with less hassle and sleeping through the night. Last night, she fell aslepp on Laura's lap while I was out. When I got home, we took her to her room, changed into PJs and attempted to put her down. There was resistance and soon the screaming began. Laura was in our bed this morning but said that she did not get in until 2:30. Anyssa was wide awake and wanting to play. This time is truly going to be a test of our patience and especially for Laura...I go back to work on Monday. Since the temperatures have cooled off, the outside time is limited so running her around is kind of tricky. I took her to Best Buy and Home Depot yesterday and she seemed to enjoy it, but obviously, it wasn't enough.

I'll fill you in on the doctor office visit later...

  1. Next time skip the pj's ...... :) There have been many times I have put sleeping kids to bed in their clothes to avoid waking them and then having to spend hours getting them back to sleep. IF they wake up then the pj's go on. I am enjoying all your posts and seeing all the pictures. you guys look so happy. keep the posts coming.

  2. I agree. PJ's are just a step that should be avoided in times like these. We ALL learned the hard way in the same situation. :-)
