Well, I've always been told it's good to get your kid(s) on a schedule, and that's exactly what I did. Now I'm not so sure... No, it has been really really nice to have Sara on a schedule but all I can say is "Watch Out!" if she gets off it. So, here is our every day schedule. She wakes up at about 7:30 or 8:00 and I bring her into bed with me and Ryan to watch her show "Super Why".
I don't know what it is a bout this show, but she absolutely loves it. I mean, we've tried every show, like Curious George, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Sesame Street or any other colorful cartoon but she only likes "Super Why" it is so funny! So, She hangs out in my bed and watches "Super Why" while Ryan gets ready and I eat breakfast.
Once her show is over, I feed her some breakfast, then let her play in her saucer or sit in her bumbo and watch me get ready. By the time I'm done, it's about 9:30-10:00 and she's ready for her morning nap. She usually sleeps about two hours then is up again, and it's her turn to get ready, and spend some time with Mom and usually Dad when he comes home for lunch.
I feed her a little bit of lunch and let her sit in her bumbo and watch me do the laundry. Then by 1:30 or 2:00 she's ready for her afternoon nap. She sleeps 'til 4:00 and gets excited if Dad gets home from work a little early. She watches me make dinner, while I try and feed her dinner at the same time, then hangs out with her Dad.
Then at about 6:00 it's time for her bath. She usually gets in with me or Ryan and loves it more than anything! She get's so excited when she hears the water and we start getting her undressed. I love it! Once she's out of the tub, she's ready to eat and go to bed.
It really is so nice knowing what comes next with her every day. But I'm not kidding when I say she is not very happy when she misses something. Like, one day we woke up and Ryan was watching the news instead of her show and she was being so fussy! I tried nursing, but she wasn't hungry and we didn't know what her problem was. Then I thought maybe she wanted her show on. Ryan said "No way. She couldn't be fussy about that." I told him to turn it on and sure enough- instantly quiet and glued to the TV. I couldn't believe it. Then when we went to all of our Christmas parties she really got off her schedule and she was so tired and would cry and fuss and just wanted her own bed. 
She really is so cute and too funny. I love her so much! I just hope I'll be able to keep up on her daily routine so I don't get in trouble...
Wow, moving really is quite the project, and can be pretty annoying. I swear we have moved more than anyone! And of course, Sara has to get sick right when were moving- that was eventful. It's the first time Sara has ever been sick and I felt so bad for the poor thing. She had a fever which I'm sure was just part of the cold she had, and an ear infection. So, after we got everything moved, we took her to the doctor who prescribed her some medicine and she's finally getting back to her old self. The picture of her in the box is at our old house when we were packing everything, and the second picture is of our new master bedroom-what a mess! It took me forever to clean it all up. We've been living here for a week now and I still haven't unpacked every box. Every time someone calls and asks "So, what are you doing?" I've had the same answer-"just unpacking". So, just thought I'd let you all know it's coming- slowly but surely. I'm sure right when I unpack the last box and we are 100% settled we'll find a place and need to move...again. That really is just my luck.
We had some friends up for a little New Year's Eve get together. We had fun playing games, drinking some bubbley and celebrating the New Year together. 
Ryan and I are jumping into the new year with some resolutions and exciting things to look forward to. 
First we have our snowmobiling trip to West Yellowstone Park with my family the end of January. Then we have our cruise to Mexico the first weekend in February.
