9-21-10 Sorry baby!

OK- so today I totally stressed my little Addison out :( I paid for it at her bedtime!

10:30 Dreamfeed- first TRUE dreamfeed.  I was amazed at what she did while still asleep. 
right back down
11:55 woke to feed- I must not have pushed her hard enough to eat during the dreamfeed.  Learning.
right back down
3:15 woke to feed
6:15 Feed
we stayed awake and played.  She was incredibly happy!  Got a super cute picture to send to Joe while out of town :) She was trying hard to suck her hand/thumb but was so busy smiling she couldn't.
6:45 back down after yawns
9:00 woke to feed (she was making suckling noises in her sleep, so I went ahead and got her up)
stayed awake while I packed stuff for a day trip.  Laid on Nana's bed while I folded clothes and got ready.
9:40 she began to fuss and we were about ready to leave
9:45- in the car and fussing to go t osleep until 10:15 when we FINALLY got on the interstate- a fussy infant + road construction= an unhappy mommy!
11:30 woke when we arrived at Amanda's house.
stayed awake while mean ole mommy made her wait to eat.  Had to be bounced, walked, swayed to keep from wailing!
11:55 I broke and fed her
12:30 back in the car traveled to Cheddar's for lunch- stayed awake until we got there (12:45ish)
12:50 fell asleep while I held her at hte table
Then, I laid her down in her carrier. She slept the whole time we ate, I was suprised
Woke and fussed a little while we buckled, but went back to sleep
2:15 woke as I put her carrier in the buggy at JoAnn's fabrics and crafts
went back to sleep with me swaying her in my arms.
3:00 fed in the car (late)
3:30 back to sleep as we started moving in the car again
4:30 woke as we stopped at McDonald's for Amanda's addiction! then as we arrived at Laura's
5:00 fed from bottle (early)
diaper EXPLOSION!
5:50 back to sleep when we got in the car
6:30 woke as we arrived at Amanda's- again I made her wait to eat and swayed with her
7:15 I fed her (early, but from a very full source!)
7:45 fell asleep in the car
8:00 woke as we arrived at Frank & Kristy's
stayed awake through our visit
8:30 MAD little girl as we loaded the car.
she screamed and cried all the way to the ballpark to watch Pappa and Uncle Logan play softball
8:40 got her out of the car and saw that she had scratched her face in her little fit :(
8:45 fell asleep in my arms at the ballpark
we stayed and watched long enough to know that their "Hidden Talent" team has NO hidden talent :)
slept through me putting her back in the car seat, going in the gas station, pumping gas, and getting on the road again!
9:55 woke up in the car mad again that she was strapped down :(
I sang As the Deer (our new night time routine song) about 153 times until we got to Nana & Pappa's at 10:15. 
10:15 fed
she was gross because it was bath day anyway, but also from all of the days activities, hands on her, and being at the ballpark- so I bathed her even though this should have been her "dreamfeed" time.
11:00 Put her down for the night.  She CIO-ed for less than 5 minutes (to Nanna's disappointment- she was just SURE she was going to get to rescue her and rock her... which I told her she could do if she cried more than 10 mins, I felt like I had made that baby suffer enough!!!)

Whew!  I was exhausted after this day- I felt terrible for doing this to her.  I will think twice before making THAT kind of day trip again.
