I need to go outside and rake the leaves and transplant some hostas and day lilies, but little Rosemary is taking her precious time falling asleep. I don't want to go out until she's fallen asleep because the monitor doesn't always work outside, and besides, I don't want to get all dirty and then have to come in.
We went for a nice walk this morning: watched the St. Paul parks and rec people mowing the lawn with their giant riding lawn mowers, stopped at the mail box to mail an earnest check to the realtor in Brainerd, looked for pumpkins and scarecrows, stopped at the park, and ran the bases in the baseball field.
The days are actually going by really fast! Joel will come home tomorrow - early evening, so that is pretty exciting! I'll be interested to see if Rosemary receives him well or if she carries a little grudge. She has been doing pretty good so far. We talk to him a lot on the cell phone. She asks where he is quite a bit, but she doesn't really cry or act sad. My first day home with her, she tested me ... a lot. But a day full of time-outs and the rest of our days have been pretty good.
Well, it sounds like the little one is asleep - I better get to work.
rosemary,
