Late Night Adventure
Elise was really crabby on Sunday night, possibly because she is teething or maybe because she is missing daddy, but either way I layed her down about 45 minutes earlier than I usually do. After finishing up everything I needed to do to get ready for Monday and talking with Maureen and Michael, I headed to bed. But as soon as I turned my light off (don't kids have crazy timing?), Elise started to cry. Thinking she was hungry I made her a bottle but when she didn't want that I thought maybe her teeth were hurting, so I set her down to get some Motrin for her. She came crawling after me and I just had to take some pictures because she was so cute. The funniest party was after flirting with me in the bathroom, she crawled off to our bedroom, where I heard her saying "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy." She is no dummy--she knows where daddy usually is when we have these last night adventures. 
So after trying to lay her down again to no avail, we got back up and I thought that maybe she was hungry. I tried her in her high chair but she fussed at that so we tried some goldfish crackers on the floor, which of course she needed to hold the package and she decided that she also felt like dancing, so she flung them all over the kitchen floor. Not that she ate any of them but she did enjoy giving them to Maggie. 
After that point, her antics stopped being so cute. Eventually after laying her down 4 times and listening to her cry each time, she finally fell asleep, albeit 2 1/2 hours later. I still am not sure what was wrong--could it be because she is missing daddy? I wouldn't think so but she is sure talking about him alot and looking for him around the house. Only 4 more days to go....
