My mom came into town last week to visit her up all night granddaughter. We really enjoyed our visit with her, but I am not sure how relaxing it was for her. The first night the air mattress deflated and she ended up sleeping on the floor. Then the following nights she was woken up by our needy dog's constant licking.
We went out to sushi one of the nights. I wore my new glasses that I ordered from a company called Warby Parker. They cut out the cost of the middle man in prescription glasses, so they were only $99. They also give a pair for every pair purchased, much like Toms. They are super trendy, but for a third of the cost, I can justify them. My mom also fed Madison 9 ounces of milk, an amount she has never had. We were all eager to see how the night would go, turns out the number of times she wakes up is equivalent to how many ounces she consumes, fail.
Another hopeful endeavor to get her to sleep more, introduction of food, fail again. She slept so horribly. We think food has shocked her intestinal system and we are paying for it big time at night. We are holding off on the food for a bit, despite how much she enjoys it. She took to eating like a natural (Will says that is because eating is natural). The only real mess was when I would accidentally brush the spoon on her bib, girlfriend swallowed every last bit of that avocado.

One of our few adventures out of the house, was to the Denver Botanic Gardens for a Christmas light stroll. Madison stayed awake the entire time taking in all of the beautiful lights. She cried all the way home because it was an hour past her bedtime, but at least she was well behaved while in public.
Now, we are just resting up for our big trip to Texas on Thursday. We are going to assume she will refuse to sleep and then be pleasantly surprised if she decides to sleep longer than 30 minutes at a time. I am loving getting to celebrate Christmas with Madison.
