I slept with the door open all night. It was raining and cool, so it felt amazing. Eis had a few good stretches of sleep. At one point this morning around 0900 or so, I heard her waking up, so I came in and checked my timer. She'd not been asleep even an hour, so I turned the swing on and laid on the daybed for a minute. As she wriggled around, I heard her poop. I knew she would sleep another couple hours after that, so I went back to my room to finish sleeping.
Mom had to go to San Antonio today to pick Dad up from the airport. He wasn't able to get a flight to Austin today after taking Grammie home. I stayed here with Eisley and caught up on some shows. After a bit, I decided to catch up on some Zumba. I needed a refresher with a number of the routines.
I tried the tv in the nursery, but the dvd player wasn't hooked up. I decided it would be better to do in my room, anyhow. I not only had the ability to play the dvds, but I had room to move. I left Eisley napping and went to my room. It wasn't long before she was awake. I changed her, then brought her to my room to nurse. I laid on the bed and let her nurse while I watched a couple routines. It wasn't long before I realized she'd peed, however, she peed a bit on my bed, too. Apparently, I didn't get the diaper tight or straight enough when I changed her last. Oop!
After she finished eating and being changed, I propped her up on a pillow and she watched me while I practiced a few routines. Occasionally, I'd pick her up and hold her while I'd do the feet. She smiled, laughed, and wriggled a lot while watching me -- I'm fairly confident that she enjoyed it. Eventually, my folks came home and I passed her off to them so I could shower.
We went to dinner at the Melting Pot, since I'd bought a Groupon. There wasn't a changing table in the bathroom, so I had to change her on the floor of the handicapped stall. It was mildly difficult. The other problem was that halfway through dinner, she got really tired and wanted to sleep, which means she started to cry. Now, there was a table right next to us with a whiny child, but my dad was... embarrassed ? stressed? irritated? that Eisley was crying in a restaurant. I don't know what emotion he had cause they all come out as anger. However, I took her and went outside.
I was so incredibly pissed that he would be such an ass. She cried for maybe 20 seconds before I took her outside. That's not enough for anyone to get upset. It's not like we're not doing anything to make her stop. I decided that I will not be going out to eat anymore because he made me so mad. My mom kept wanting to help, but I told her to stay in her seat. I wasn't going to be outside with the baby having Mom hovering, wanting to help, and dad getting irritated that he's alone, inside. I knew she was tired, but I had to wait until she fell asleep before I could go back inside.
Eventually, my dad came out and said he'd take her and to go inside. I told him that she was tired and just needed to go to sleep. He took her and I went inside. I told my mom that I wouldn't be going out to eat with them anymore. She said, "I told him you'd say that."
Even with the Groupon, dinner was still pricey. As much as I love fondu, I see why it's important to know how to make it yourself. It's just too much money to go out and it could be just as good, if not better at home. I'll have to try to make it on my own to see if that's something that could work for when Ty is home on R&R. He likes cheese and I'm sure he'd like the chocolate fondu...
Tomorrow is more Zumba. Plus, we'll take back the umbrella stroller, buy the kickin' coaster, and a couple pairs of pants for Eisley... at least that's the plan.
