Weekend Update

We've had a fairly busy weekend. Enjoyable (for the most part!) but busy.

Saturday Andy and I drove to Calgary for our friends daughters first birthday! It was alot of driving but well worth it. It was really awesome to see our friends (even if it was a short visit) and celebrate their daughters first birthday! It was a very special day and a way different 1st birthday party than we're used to; this was a Dol! Its a Korean traditional first birthday, and they really go all out! It was at an awesome Korean restaurant where there was lots of food and goodies and awesome company as well!! We really enjoyed our time there. Like I said, it was alot of driving for one day, but so worth it!

Eli spent the day with his Nana, and they both had a great time. Andy's grandpa (Eli's great Grandpa!) does Santa at the hospital for the kids, and he was there yesterday, so they went for a visit. Eli was all in his glory. Cookies, santa, live music and lots to look at! He loved it I guess! He only napped for 45 minutes with his Nana. He started coughing during the day and he couldnt nap very well because of it. When we got home around 6:30p.m he was happy to see us and he was quite tired. We tried putting him down around 7:30 but he wasnt going to have any part of it. Eventually he did go down to bed but not until around 8:30-9:00ish!!

I went off to a Christmas Party and had a really awesome time. It was great to get to know some women that I didnt know too well before and get out for some good appetizers and drinks (even though I only drank punch and a small amount of wine.) When I arrived home at midnight Eli was up and not happy. He couldnt stop coughing and he was over tired from his busy day with his Nana. It was a rough night, he woke up every few hours crying and coughing then would fall asleep. He is tired today, and not feeling 100% either. Poor kid.

I never realized how important schedule and nap really is in his life. When he's over tired its a bad situation and its not fun! But Im blessed that he had so much fun with his Nana and that she was able to watch him for us while we went out of town for the day!!

Today is a day of relaxing and catching up on sleep. A Good 'ol Sunday!
