Sleep, Zoo, and the Red Sox

Sleepy Em and Daddy

The first picture is from one day last week. Emily had a bad cold and cough and had woken up around 4:30am crying and not feeling well. Daddy and Emily fell back to sleep while I was busy emailing in sub plans so that I could stay home. Emily has only fallen asleep once or twice in our bed ever so this was a very rare occurence. One moment she was sitting up half playing and the next she had fallen over, asleep! Even though she didn't have a fever, we kept her home from daycare to let her relax and catch up on some sleep. You could tell when the Motrin wore off because she got cranky until it kicked back in again. She felt much better that evening and went back to school the next day.

We went to the zoo with our friends over the weekend. We enjoyed seeing the animals, but Emily was more focused on the other people around us! She did get to get up close to a lion and she thought that was pretty darn cool!

As alwyas, Emily is still a Red Sox fan, after the Cards, of course! :)
