Lina and School

I have shared on more than one occasion my very unsettled feelings about school and Lina. It hasn't gotten any better. I will spare you all the details, but today was Lina's last day at this school. Tomorrow she will go have lunch and meet her new classmates at Trinity. School is closed ALLLL week next week so it's a good break. Come December 1 a brand new fresh start. It will make life a little interesting with driving now and financially with tuition, but it's better for Lina. Stay tuned for First Day of School pictures Part 2!

Lydia-ness

I call my mom every time Lyd has a funny. I need to share them.

Lydia LOVES to watch the lobsters at Publix. She is fascinated with them. We were heading somewhere and while I was getting the car loaded Lyd is yelling for me to come see the lobster in the street (driveway). "Yes, I see it honey, let's get in the car now" knowing full well- there is no lobster. She continues with the "lobster" bit so I head over......to see the grasshopper in the driveway. Awwww.

Heading out the door to go get Lina from school. Lydia yells- "there's a wurm" Uh, no. That would be a SNAKE dear!!! Then she says, "it's just like daddy". Well, Daddy can be a stinker, but he's no snake so I ask her to explain. "It has bwack hair like daddy". Yup, black snake. : )

We watched the space shuttle the other night. COOOOOOL! We watched it on TV and once taking off we went out to the driveway. "The space shovel is getting the moon" reports Lydia.

One Month Later

Let me fill you in on the last MONTH! Good grief. October and pretty much November have been a blurrrrrrrr.

Since we have last posted.....

My mom, dad, aunt, and uncle came down for a week. We always enjoy this visit. The heat is gone (for the most part) and it's just fun to see family...and I admit they spoil me/us rotten! The girls had poor "Uncle Scott" hiding for a break and Lydia had an audience. Other than a few breakdowns it was a nice visit! They scored with great weather and we scored with skipping school and playing with them for 3 nights. All the girls went to Disney one day and the other days we just hung out and played.

Here is Papa, Grammy, and girls!

The following week was Halloween. Lydia LOVED Halloween....and Lyd doesn't LOVE much. Lina enjoyed herself and loved her costume. Here are my little sweeties....candy corn fairy, M&M, and a package of Smarties. Poor Lila had an ear infection the entire month of October and first week of November. 3 antibiotics later she is finally "all clear".....and now has 6 teeth working their way to the surface.

Let's go trick or treating....with the wrong bags!

Little Pumpkins!

Lila loves Cheerios....and peas even at the same time. Gross.

Now 9 months old! WHA??? Finally sitting up on own, but doesn't get to that position on her own. Still no crawling or pulling up. Seems there is another late walker on our hands. Lila Joy gets "rescued" a lot so I am sure that has a lot to do with it. Why work to get something when it will be handed to you? Why get up when someone will come pick me up (I am guilty of that)?

Well, we tried and we supported. The election didn't go as I had hoped and prayed it would, but that heavy feeling of "oh dear" is slowly subsiding. Although come January I am sure that will surface again. I truly can't believe how people think this is going to be a good move. We'll see...and pray. Here are my little Republicans on Election Day!

We took the girls to the UCF Homecoming parade, tailgating, and game (I left with little girls after 1st quarter. Lina stayed the whole game. Thanks to the Brinks and their help!!) Here we are waiting for the parade. Why, yes. Lydia is wearing red cowboy boots. She loves those things and I chose not to battle that....just brought the Keds along.

It had been a L O N G day. Here we are ready to go in- but wait- the car went dead so Bob called AAA and they came to jump us. Soooo happy we noticed that BEFORE we went into the game. The girls were playing in the car and apparently turned the key....where were the 4 adults that were supervising you ask? Hmmmmm?

I have no more pictures for this month. I have been trying to take more video. I need to learn how to share that here.

Kindergarten Project

I said, Kindergarten, correct? Yes. Lina came home with a project and a week and half to do it. She had to dress the bear and then write 3 sentences about the bear. 3 sentences. This is Kindergarten, correct?!?!?!

Lina took it head on though...as with anything academic. She LOVES "projects" and doing homework (and I only pray that lasts FOREVER!).

The final bear. Diamond. Notice Diamond is spelled correctly also? Favorite. She sat there and stewed over spelling it the right way because "she has seen it somewhere". I guess from books.

Lina's Bear Story

My bear's name is Diamond. She likes to dance. Purple is her favorite color.

Well done, Big Girl! I am proud of you!

(sigh) Election 2008

Oh my stomach just gets in knots watching the news. This election is going to be something. It already is. A very wise friend of mine shared this email. I have been reading it and doing just that- PRAYING for our nation. May His Will be done!

Before you vote, and while the campaign is rolling, consider this prayer:

Lead me in the right path, O Lord, or my enemies will conquer me.
Make your way plain for me to follow.
My enemies cannot speak a truthful word.
Their deepest desire is to destroy others.
Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave.
Their tongues are filled with flattery.
O God, declare them guilty.
Let them be caught in their own traps.
Drive them away because of their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.
But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them sing joyful praises forever.
Spread your protection over them, that all who love your name may be filled with joy.
For you bless the godly, O Lord; you surround them with your shield of love.

AMEN

Christians are called to stand in the gap. We need to realize that we indeed MUST pray for our nation in a time such as this. No matter what your political party may be, we must seek God's will and plan for our future. The most powerful weapon we have is prayer. USE IT!!

By the way, this is no ordinary prayer. It is straight from the heart of David. The prayer, in its entirety is Psalm 5:8-12 (quoted above in the New Living Translation). Doesn't it amaze you that the prayer written by a great man of God thousands of years ago still are "spot on" for our world today? The Bible never goes out of style!

Please pass this on, and encourage others to bend their knees in prayer during this election season. We can't afford not to!!

Halloween Costumes

Ughh. I want to be that mom that makes the Halloween costumes. So far each year someone has had a homemade costume. I had grand plans for this year. Had. I just spent 30 minutes on Ebay making final decisions for Lina and Lila. Lydia? She gets to be a blue M&M! (Lina wore this costume 4 years ago!! Yea, for Mrs. Engstrom's handy work!!)

Lina will be a candy corn fairy. Wanted to just be a piece of candy corn.
Lyd the m&m
Lila will be a package of Smarties.

My little sweeties!

I also feel the need to have a theme with the girls. Last year was the best. My bubble bath girl and a duck. Get it? That was cute. I had wanted the 3 little pigs, but Lina wasn't going for it.

One day (that I really don't even care for, but it's fun to dress up) causing me to waste so much time. While speaking about Halloween. When did it get soooooo stinkin' spooky and icky??? Was it always? Maybe I am just more sensitive to it now? Houses getting all decked out? C'mon.

Regardless, Halloween can't get here soon enough. The candy (that has, yes, been opened) needs to get out of this house!! ; )

Stay tuned for sweet pictures!

Happy Four Years to Us

4 years ago today Bob and I stood in front of a judge in Pskov, Russia and heard the words "she is your daughter". More or less. We didn't really know what the judge was saying, translator tried to keep up, everyone was crying (this was the first placement for this team of gals with our agency.....and no we did not know that going to Russia. That little tidbit we found out on the train to Pskov. Ah, such a labor story!)

4 years. That little peanut all growing up on us now.

We've always done something special on this day. Today she is in school. Feels weird without her here. I did make a little scrapbook on shutterfly and for dinner Lina wants baked potatoes and salad. Cool. That I can do!

Thank you God for making me Angelina's momma!

Full of It

Literally.

No offense taken I hope. This would be Lydia we're talking about and she is full of it. Poop that is. Lovely. Lydia has had horrible constipation for over a year now. Last week after an eventful evening I took her to the doctor because this just can't be right. Doc sent us for an x-ray and then make a plan from there.

Took Lydia to the hospital yesterday for her x-ray and let me tell you- that was A LOT of fun.

Doctor called about 4 hours later (love this gal) and she said, "Lydia is full of poop from top to bottom". Nice.

So, we're on super clean out this week and next.

Nope. No pictures!

Visiting with an Old Pal

I love living in Central FL. Eventually everyone comes to Orlando and I get to horde in on some vacation time! The latest...my gal pal Kelly and her family. I met Kelly through Hannah's Prayer. Kelly started her journey to Russia before we did. I can remember following along with such excitment as she was waiting for her babies...and here we are almost 5 years later.....arms full of blessings!

Jaelyn, Lina, Allie, Kelly holding Caden, Me and Lila, and Lydia

Little Russian Miracles!

Check us out- we look so young!

Our first meeting in August 2003

And again in September 2003 in Arkansas

It sure was nice to visit your family, Kelly. Wish it could have been longer. I am glad you all had this time together. I love your girls and that Caden is the sweetest boy I have ever had the chance to talk to...or listen to. : ) Love you, Girl!

Kelly's husband is one of the many brave soliders in the US Army that protect you and I. Would you please pray for D as he prepares for another deployment? Would you please pray for this family as their hero is away from them for the next year? Thanks!

The Weekend

It seems Fall has arrived (for a few days anyway) in Central FL. The last few mornings and evenings (days still kind of heat up, but like 94 degrees or anything!) have been wonderful. We walk to school and I don't need a bath when returning. I may actually do some more walking now that poor Lyd and Lila won't cook in the stroller.

Lila tried out the swing today in the backyard. She loved it!

Lina played outside for what seemed like ALLLLL day. She fell asleep immediately upon getting into bed.

Lydia enjoyed being outside....in her diaper. Sigh. That child. She does NOT like to get wet...AT ALL. She spilled some water on her shirt and then needed to take all her clothes off. She was in just a diaper for 4 hours today. Lydia also crashed in bed...once she stopped moving.

She's a White Sock

Here are some pics from T-ball. Good golly the uniform is swimming on Lina. It's the smallest they have. Uncle Rich said, "so help me if you put a camisole under that shirt" and that was what I was going to do. Apparently I need to get a baseball 3 quarter sleeve shirt....she can't look anymore sissy out there with a camisole AND her purple glove!

Perseverance and Pride

Wanted to share this sweet news.

Miss Lina is the student of the month in the kindergarten for showing the character ed word of "PERSEVERANCE". Sniff sniff. If you ask her what it means- she even knows!

What a month of perseverance it has been, which is kind of ironic. At least once or twice a week I make a phone call to Bob in tears and say "that's it, let's pull her" - meaning out of that school.

Lina seems to be settling in though. Maybe once a week something happens that adds fuel to my fire, but I am continuing to pray and not react emotionally. I just don't love it and I really wanted to. No changes before the end of the quarter (end of October) and for now we are just really proud of Lina and her perseverance.

7 Months Old and the Hips are in Good Shape

Lila Joy has hit the 7 month mark. WHA? Time is FLY-ing by with this babe-a-licious! Still a pretty easy going baby. She had her hip follow up apt today and passed with flying colors. We are now done with all that. Lila had x-rays today and what was displaced is totally fine now. It was pretty minor, but they don't like to mess around with hips- I don't either I suppose!

Weighing in at 14 lbs 9 oz and doesn't do a whole lot yet. She is quick to grab, roll over, put anything in her mouth, and has a sweet little smile and giggle.

Back from Boston

Oh it was so nice. Boston is a great city. I knew the history that took place in the city. What shocked both of us was the busy-ness of the city. Whoa. It's a happening city! The weather was absolutely wonderful- perfect- high 60s/74 low 50s. Ahhhh. It was literally a breath of much needed fresh air.


Truth be known I NEEDED to get away. There I said it. I needed to get out of my house and away from the girls. Gosh, that is just awful to see in writing. 5 years ago if someone would have said that and I heard it or read it- I would have gone ballistic. It's not them, it's the whining, the battle at dinner and bedtime, my stressing over decision for school, THE HEAT, and just being tired. I get nothing done and it wore me down. I love that we chose for me to be a stay at home mom and I wouldn't trade this gig for anything, but I needed a break.


I am refreshed though! Although frustrations with school today (why it is sooooo difficult for someone to show some compassion to my child and HELP her with her potty fear is beyond me)did bug me pretty badly.


Thursday we arrived, got our rental car and hit the Mass Tpke and the tolls (oooops, they don't care of you didn't mean to go through the toll booth again....and again), checked out by driving by what we would like to do, and then went to hotel to freshen up a bit. Our hotel was literally ON the Tpke. Not so much a quiet place. We found a great place for dinner and enjoyed some chowder (it was perfect!) and fish and chips. We crashed pretty early that night...although Lila had a rough night.



Friday our friends Mark and Mary Beth arrived at about 1:30. Before getting them we toured the USS Constitution. Bob totally digs that stuff. I enjoy it too though. Lila wasn't totally impressed, but did a good job. After grabbing Mark and MB we were off to Sam Adams brewery tour, of course, being the German Lutherans that we are. Cool tour. 3 samples of beer and then we were off to Faneuil Hall and Cheers for lunch/early dinner. We walked a few miles to the pond where the story Make Way for Ducklings takes place. It looks just like the book and they have these cute duck statues...Mrs. Mallard, Jack, Kack, Lack, Mack, Nack, Oack, Pack....$35 later for parking we headed back to the hotel. Some troubles with checking in scored the 4 of us free breakfast for the next 2 days! Nice.



Saturday was a perfect football weather day....had UCF actually PLAYED. Ugh. We had to park about 8 miles away from campus and ride on a school bus to BC. Before that we did receive a police escort to a deserted parking lot to tailgate. Too funny. First half was great. Third quarter Lila snoozed (and we sat in a ticket booth- nice college kids let me in) and when we went back- things just fell apart. Did I mention the weather was wonderful though?? ; )



After the game we stopped for dinner and enjoyed more chowder.


That night we got ice cream and just hung out.



Sunday we got up early to see Harvard, check out a local market, find the best Boston Cream Pie EVER made (for lunch), and checked out some other last minute sights.


Pretty city....we'll be back!

Lina and Lydia did great with Carmen and her family. They enjoyed playing and swimming and having "Tia" to themselves. The report about Lina's first game- Lina had 2 hits and skipped to every base. Atta girl! Next game on Saturday.

So It's Been Awhile

It feels like we are settling into a routine....shhhhhh.





This week at school went well. Lina announced that she loves Kindergarten because she is learning and that she has a best friend. Lina kind of plays with everyone and no real loyalty to anyone. That is until Anthony came around. He is a sweet boy. They walk down the hall together and are so happy to see one another in the morning. It's sweet. Bob told Lina "no boyfriends" and she said, "we're BEST friends, not a boy friend" Sweet girl.

School is different than I expected- that's for sure. I think we are going to be ok. In the next week starts reading and math groups and I think Lina will eat that up. Lina will also be a Daisy Scout and that starts this week. Fun times!





Lina started T-ball tonight. She is now a member of the White Sox. It rained and really that was the best part of it for Lina. She looks so tiny out there on that field. Her first love, Joe from 3yr old preschool, is on her team and his dad is the coach. Some thunder booms ended practice early.

Here are some pics. I tried to stay off the field so they are a little far away. We need to invest in a good lens.....some day.

I love this picture!! : )

And she takes the field. It's raining pretty steady here. Doesn't she look like an itty bit?

Enough about Lina : )......

Bob has gotten slammed at work this week. YEAH GOD! He has more jobs this month than he has alllllll year. We are in the 9th month of the year, you know that, right? The timing isn't too good with his mom's surgery recovery and our trip to Boston, but we are thankful!

Lydia is Lydia. Love that girl. She had a good eating week. Lyd ate chicken brushetta and turkey. THAT's HUGE! Tonight she ate olives. However if I serve that this week she won't eat it.

Lila Joy is growing. She had her 6 month check last week and weighs a big ol 14 lbs! I do have small children that's for sure. She enjoys eating solids and for the most part sleeps great at night. Lila is heading down that same path at Lydia though with the ol potty woes. I tell you my life revolves around poop.

Me. Oh, I am fine. I am ready for a change of weather. Our trip to Boston will be wonderful if I get everything done in time!

Playing with Pals

Well it wasn't nearly long enough, but we went to Disney Village tonight to meet up with my friend, Michele, her husband, and their precious little Clara and Libby.

I met Michele online through Hannah's Prayer. We first met in person in Arkansas when I went and met a few other gals I knew through HP. It's been a long time....2003....crazy. When I met Michele it was shortly after her precious Gideon and Grace were born too early. Those precious little ones touched so many lives in their short lives. It was an honor to have met their mother and now call her friend.

So they are hitting the parks for a few days. Soooo much fun. Great time of year to be doing so.

Here we are hanging...the Mommas and the Girls. And, I for the life me, can't tell Clara and Libby apart- sorry, M! Aren't they precious??

I love that little girls all just hold hands, giggle, and dance...and act like they have been best friends forever.

Lila Joy....soooo tired and could someone give this child a bib or some rag to drip on. She is a faucet!! And I am pretty sure that her eyes just keep getting bigger and bluer ; )

Thrown in the Deep End

It's not terrible, but it's been a rough day around here today.

Last week I shared how watching Lina walk down the hallway to school was like throwing her in the deep end of a pool and praying she made it to the side. I have just been very unsettled about school. Which kills me because I prayed over this decision, I love what the school has to offer, love that it takes me 5 (with littles in stroller) to walk to school....yet something is missing.

Just pray for Lina and for Bob and I as we might make some changes here in the coming weeks.

By The Way...We're Getting a New Fence

This morning before heading off to school (and let's talk about that for a minute...I am walking Lina to school with little girls in stroller. It's ridiculously hot and humid right now. If I shower before going- totally a waste because I need another plus I have been trying to exercise a bit, actually running and have been. Then if I shower after going to school/exercise I need another one after going to go get Lina as it takes us some time to get home...the pokey little thing that she is. So basically I am a sweaty stinky momma most days. NICE)

ANYWAY...

This morning our neighbor comes to tell me that they are getting a bulldog puppy (ew) and getting a better fence put up....NOW. Thanks for the head's up. Well I look around the garage and there are men in our yard drilling and pulling up our fence. I need to get to school, but this makes me hot under the collar (what a dorky phrase!)

Turns out the wood fence was on their property line. I should have realized that. When we did the fence our old neighbors did so at the same time also and I kind of remember the discussion- there is a utility pole right on our property line.

So today we now have:

Do I love it? No, not so much. However it's growing on me. I miss L&L and wish they never moved.....down the block!

This Side of the Desk

I have not been a full-time classroom teacher since the 2004-2005 school year (nor do I miss it a lick). Since then I have become a Mommy to 3 little girls (duh).

That little girl that filled my empty arms has "left the nest" (for a few hours a day anyway) and it's hard. Really hard.

Lina's first week of school included 2 days off and a day that they should have had off. It was just a weird week. Lina had to buy milk, eat lunch in a cafeteria, meet new people, make new friends, be in a new environment, and use a potty that has a light/fan combo that is not good for her AT ALL.

Lina is a smart little girl. Not the most mature, mind you, but smart. She can be a little "out there" as well.

Monday Lina was a little sad about leaving me and I admit I cried more this Monday than that first day of school. I couldn't walk her to her classroom. I watched from the end of the hall. It felt like I threw her in the deep end and prayed she made it to the side (of course Lina is a great swimmer and would totally make it to the side, but that analogy is good, no?)

Lina wet her pants that day. She hasn't wet her pants in 2 years!

Well, that sent me into defense mode. I emailed Lina's teacher without really stepping back, thinking, looking at the big picture. It was all "Momma Cub".

Tuesday Lina was sad again, but she had a good day.....and used the potty!

Wednesday is early day. She came out all smiles and in the same clothes she left in! Yippppee! We went to celebrate and play at Chick Fil A for awhile (ok maybe we went more for me because I am toooooo stinkin' hot to play outside).

School is interesting. Public school is interesting. This is the first time in my life that I am in this system. It's different than where I came from. At TLS there is very much "catering to one's needs". While the resources, curriculum, activities, staff, teacher, programs are incredible....that "catering" (and that's not really the word I want) isn't here. It's only been 6 days though. Last night I prayed for peace. And you know....today I have it.

Lina and I are just going to take one day at a time and figure out this whole school thing.

Parenting is not easy. I learned a lot these past few days and there is a whole lot more to learn!

They Do Play Nicely Together....Sometimes

Lydia loves her toys. She is more of a "play alone" kind of a girl than Lina ever was. Although Lyd does like you to "pway" with her. Sweet girl. I found her playing with her Doodle Pro and lo and behold- that's a face!!!!!

Then ,of course, Lina must take the Doodle Pro and do her drawing. Lydia lets her and asks Lina to draw a mermaid. To which Lina does. Lina is a little artist and Lydia is obsessed with bubs (which you may know to be as breasts).

T-Ball Anyone?

Lina is all signed up with the little league here in town. They should start practice after Labor Day. Wooo-hoooo!! So fun. We went to Sports Authority to get her glove....and bat and balls. She found a grey and purple bag that had all the above in it. So now hopefully she will enjoy this sport because we have all the "stuff".

She will get a uniform shirt (like real baseball players) and cap. He he! So cute! I hope they are the Rockies because then she will match her glove. JUST KIDDING!

At registration we saw our little friend, Joe, and his dad registering. Joe's dad is one of the coaches and said he would love to have Lina on his team. Aww. So that's what we did.

Stay tuned for Opening Day update. For now here Lina is practicing!

IKEA. Swedish for Frustrating.

Now I am know that I will hear from Kelly, my friend who LOVES IKEA, but I am not in love with that place. Maybe because I have only been there with kids, but I find it hard to look around. We did find a dresser that we like though. Lydia still had clothes in her "old" room and Lila has one drawer. Now Lydia has 2 drawers to "herself", Lina has 4 and they share 2. Lila has the whole dresser in her room (which needs to be painted!!) to herself.



Anyway putting this dresser together was a challenge. Oh no, not for myself. BOB. Usually a pretty patient person (and maybe it was his "help"), but this was a project indeed.



No pictures of the finished product yet. Still working on decorating and making the room "Lina and Lydia".



Why yes. Lydia is only wearing a diaper. That is how she was found after her "nap" (that apparently she never fell asleep for.....Lina and I left and I will leave it at that).

Shhh! Listen. The Rain Has Stopped...for Now

It was a long rainy day here today. Actually Thursday was worse than Tuesday. In fact Tuesday Lina mastered riding a 2-wheeler! She is still wobbly, but she's got it! If Lina would stop giggling I bet she'd go a lot further.

Why, yes, Bob needs some oxygen!

So Lina has lost 2 Fridays that she had off in October because of this silly storm. We were very fortunate to not have any flooding like you may see on TV. Bob said tonight that we got over 12 inches in 4 days. Grass and plants should be greener than green next week!



Lila got a new toy for the Tropical Storm. She's not loving it, but does a few minutes in it. Bob says he is going to clean up the exersaucer this weekend. Lila is ready and could use a new environment. I also bought a Bumbo chair from Craigslist. Well, I didn't buy it yet. We are meeting on Monday for the exchange : )

Lila is not sitting up for very long and really has no interest WHATSOEVER to be on her tummy and roll around. I try though. Lydia never crawled..until almost 11 months and then didn't walk till 16 months. I don't want that for Lila.





Lina actually slept till 7:30 and she only woke up because Lydia wakes up and continues to get upset rather than just simply calling for one of us.


Here is a look at the new sleeping arrangments for Lina and Lydia

We made water, soap, and food coloring bottles, colored a bunch of pictures, took a brief walk outside, made rice krispie treats, watched a movie(s), and then Bob and I took the girls to Costco and we were "those" parents. We let our children run wild! There was no one in the store.

Lydia and I went to a Gymboree class yesterday. It was fun to play with just Lyd, but I didn't exactly love Gymboree. Lydia loved it and I suppose that's what matters. I think we'll be doing that on Thursdays.

Tomorrow I am going to sign Lina up for T-Ball. He he! That will be a sight.

Rain Rain GO AWAY Already!

Are you watching the weather channel these days? OH MY WORD! This silly Fay is just sitting on FL. It hasn't stopped raining since Monday. Girls are bouncing off the walls and well, so am I! We don't go out too much when it's so bloomin' hot, but at least we go out for a little bit. I am going crazy. I think I may load everyone up to do a trip to Costco tomorrow. I gotta get out of the house!

Lina was soooo tired tonight. Therefore she was crying over, oh, EVERYthing. We had dinner early, bath early (and Lyd pooped in the tub- that's ok- I'll take whenever she does poop!), and Lina was asleep by 7:15. Oh, she'll be up at 6! Can you say MOVIE DAY??

And We're Off......

Real quick as I have spent too much time playing with this blog and still not liking and deleting what I try. Grrrr!!

Here is the big L all set for Kindergarten. She had a fabulous day and the next a day off for a (ha) tropical storm that just never made it this way (which is really fine by me).

Tiny L was 6 months old yesterday. That's crazy! Time is flying. Lila sleeps beautifully through the night and loves peas and sweet potatoes. She was to go to doc this am, but that too was cancelled because of the storm that never happened!

And so as to not hear from my mom "where are pictures of Lydia". Here is the Little L all jammied up....for naptime.
