After a busy morning at the market and a nice long nap Elliot and I made our way to the Near West End for a play date with our friends Audrey and Allie. As you may recall Allie and Elliot were born 3 days a part, so it is always fun to get them together. After playing at Allie's house we walked over to the shops at Libbie and Grove to eat lunch. Allie and Elliot were so well behaved in the restaurant!
I wish I could say that Elliot was equally well behaved later that night. Unfortunately we are having to do some late stage sleep training. Elliot has decided that he no longer wants to go to sleep like a good boy and that he would much rather stand in his bed and cry. His doctor suggested letting him cry it out and said within a week he would probably be over his little rebellion. Saturday night was night 2 of the CIO strategy - not a fun process for anyone!
On Sunday we spent our morning relaxing and doing chores. After lunch Elliot and I drove to Williamsburg to spend the afternoon at Mimsey's. My cousin Marisa Saucedo and her husband and daughter, Michael and Abigale, joined us at Mimsey's pool and for dinner at Mimsey's house. They recently moved to Langley AFB from San Diego, CA. It was so nice to meet them and I was so happy that Elliot was finally able to meet his second and third cousins. Now that the Saucedo's are on the same coast, we hope to see a lot more of them! Elliot loved the pool and did some serious splashing. I think Mimsey got a few action shots and I will post them when I get them.
Elliot and I were home by 7:00 on Sunday night - just in time for his dinner. It took him a good two hours (and many tears) to settle down last night and finally go to bed - I fear that we are in for a LONG week.
