Sunday Morning - Tired and Cranky

Katie slept for a few hours in her own bed last night before waking up and asking for "Mom". I brought her into our bed and she snuggled in close and went right back to sleep. Five minutes later, she was kicking the covers off of all three of us. She has her own built in little heater and her thermostat has been set too high since the day she was born. She never stays under the covers for long. By 2:30 this morning however, she was complaining that her belly hurt and she was very restless. The rest of the night went by without a whole lot of sleep for any of us.

Now that we are all up, Katie is tired and cranky. She wants to snuggle, but she doesn't want to lie down. Hence the picture of Amy and Katie on the kitchen floor. She doesn't want to be separated from her mother or her blanket today.

Up next on the agenda is a peaceful walk down to the river. She loves seeing the river and will likely fall asleep in the stroller on the way. After that, a ride up to Pick & Shovel in Newport for a salt block for the horses. A little time in her car seat should put her right to sleep. Not to worry, she wont be going in to the store. She and her mother will wait in the car while I go in for the salt block.
