Sunshine on my Shoulders

Day one with just me and Becca = SUCCESS!! :) of course, it helped that she basically slept all day haha. I swear, I was only really with her for about 5 hours. IF that. It was so weird. I heard her at 6 am when I woke up and went for my run. I was gonna get her after I got back and put her in the bath while I took a shower and got ready, but she was fast asleep when I got back. So I kept her door cracked open so I could hear her when she woke up and that wasn't til 9 am. That's so odd for her to sleep in so late! She then came downstairs, I fed her, she played with her blanket, spun around in circles while looking up at the ceiling, and she even went outside and enjoyed the sunshine for a bit. And then she came in, went upstairs, and slept some more. that was 11ish and she slept for a good two hours. Then I went upstairs, changed her, fed her, and she followed me downstairs where she entertained herself for quite a while. But then she went upstairs and played with the shower curtain for a while, came back downstairs and was kinda grabby so I gave her apple sauce and she was fine. I was planning on playing with her til dinner/bedtime, but she went back upstairs and slept...AGAIN! What the heck?? This girl is ridiculous! So, basically, she went to sleep around 5:30 and hasn't been back down since. That's another two hours. This girl never sleeps this much! I hope she wakes up soon so I can feed her and take her on a bike ride. Cuz she's gotta sleep tonight, and I don't know if she'll be able to cuz of all this sleeping she's been doing today. I've decided that she either misses her family a whole heck of a lot and is depressed and that's why she's sleeping, or she hasn't been getting enough sleep with all the people here and is getting all caught up. Either way, I hope she's not like this the whole two weeks, otherwise I'll be sad and bored :( Guess I'll find out, huh??


Well, a nice thing about her sleeping all day is that I got some nice outdoor time. The sun was shining, there was a slight breeze, and I was able to read my book for quite a while. The sunshine felt nice, and I'm hoping to get lots of it with Becca these next couple weeks. And after a quiet day, which I thought I'd enjoy, I want Becca to be active and happy and playful again. It makes me smile :)
