I missed the text this morning that said we were going to church. However, I did wake an hour before we left, so I was able to get ready. Tim took eis while I got ready, then I took her when I heard her fussing. He always wants me to leave her with him, but he refuses (literally) to check to see if she has a wet diaper or to change her diaper if it needs changing. I don't think he realises she can't be left with just him until those two things happen. She doesn't need to or enjoy being in a dirty diaper and she gets diaper rash way too easily, plus she pees rather frequently. I don't know why he won't change her diaper, especially a pee diaper, because true love knows no bounds.
He has in his mind that he will just take her out and do fun stuff and whatever he wants to do, but doesn't yet realise that I am the supreme ruler of all things Eisley. I've not said anything yet because I know at this stage, it doesn't matter, but come this summer when she understands better, I may tell him not to say certain things to and around her. She won't understand if he's joking or not when he says he and she are "better than" everyone else and when he insults Michelle. Both sets of grandparents will have rules and both will follow them.
My parents know that eisley will not be exposed to my dad's temper, regardless of the fact that it would never be directed at eis. They also know that if what I say is not followed, that I will not let them see her. I determine what is ok and what is not. There are not second chances. You break a rule, you suffer the consequences because I don't have the time or patience for carelessness and if you can't control yourself in eisley's best interests, then how can I trust you to make the right decision in new/other situations.
Anyway, we went to church and it was in an old, remodels theatre downtown. They were still playing music when we got there, so I had to cover eisley's ears, since it was way too loud for her. I kept her in the cars eat and had that on my lap and rocked her til she fell asleep. When she woke up, I took her to the nursery area (luckily there were no kids there) and I changed her, then nursed her. We were in there til the end of the service.
Afterward, we went to Wegmans for lunch, which was yummy. Then we went to Carters and Michelle bought eis three summer outfits which are so adorable! When we finished there, we got gas and headed home. Eis fell asleep in the car and napped for a fe wminutes once we got home. I nursed her and then we left straightaway to go bowling. Eis watched us bowl, the decided she didn't like being in the stroller, so she got passed around between those who weren't bowling at the moment.
Due to my brokenness, I was terrible, so I decided to see how slow I could make the ball go. My lowest was like 1.59mph, but I stayed fairly consistent around 3ish mph. I think there was a "hill" of sorts on the lane because my ball would veer every time it hit the same spot in the lane and it had been going dead straight til then.
Eis napped when we got home and we ate dinner. Then I nursed her and Michelle fed her her cereal and bathed her, then read her a story before I put her down.
Who knows what tomorrow will hold.
