Mommy and Me: Home Alone


This weekend, Avi and his Ema were home alone for the first time EVER, since Abba was away in D.C. on a business trip. Believe it or not, we are surviving, though Ema is very tired. We've played lots of games, sung lots of songs, and taken a bath every day (well, at least Avi has!). Avi's been very compliant with going to bed around 6:30-7pm, but he still wakes up every four hours or so and wants to eat. On Friday night, I was so zonked from a whole day home alone with baby in the rain that I fell asleep in my bathrobe after a much needed shower, and only woke up at 11pm when Avi started to cry in his room. So much for shabbat dinner! Last night Avi was up so often that I probably only slept for about 3 hours all night, and then it was time to get up and play at 6am. So when we got home from our walk this morning, and Avi kept sleeping in his carseat, Bernard and I joined him, even though there was clean laundry to put away (on the bed!), and plenty of other things to do. Wish us luck. Just 24 more hours till Jeremy comes home! Yay!
