Maybe it's the sleep


Courtney and I had a wonderful day today. Maybe because it's a beautiful spring day. Or maybe because it's the day after tax day. Or maybe, just maybe, it's because my little angel slept through the night and she's very well rested.

Today we ran some errands, napped and met Paul for lunch. Courtney was adorable. I'm not just saying that, she was really adorable. She smiled at everyone and she talked and talked and talked. She even napped a couple of times but when she was up, she was UP and happy as could be.

We were sitting in the food court at the mall, enjoying our lunches, listening to Courtney hold up her end of the conversation. Paul leans over and pulls on the little toy that's been hanging on her crib for 4 months, at least. He pulls the little bug down and it vibrates it's way back up. If I were to venture a guess, I'd say the bug has been pulled down at least 200 times if not more. Seriously, 200. Maybe 300. Any number of people have pulled that thing down. I should probably wash it... Anyway, Paul pulls it down and it vibrates back up and Courtney saw it. I mean she really saw it - I'm pretty sure for the first time. And her eyes got really wide and her mouth opened up into this big O and she was amazed. It was like she'd never seen it before. Which I guess she hadn't. Maybe she hadn't really noticed it because she was too tired from not sleeping through the night.
