So Ella wouldn't sleep again so this was the second night in a row I let her sleep with me. ;(  Tonight, I will definitely put her to sleep in her crib!

Morning/Afternoon Activities:  Who enjoys helping set up the convention center?  Ella!  Though we only got to help for 20 minutes before the safety department told us they appreciate our effort however it was not a good idea.  Darn!  We were hoping to go for a little longer but at least we got to see the friends.In the parking lot, I turned my car into Ella's diaper changing station and then fed her.  We spent a few minutes getting her comfortable in her car seat and she's getting better at holding her pacifier in her mouth with her own hand!

Afternoon Activities:Afterward, we did a few errands (shopping for gifts for our trip to Hawaii) and then came home to relax.  Ella got a nice surprise when her Nana came by with a dress and got to play with her.

Evening Activities:  Ella took a nice long three hour nap in the afternoon which allowed me to catch up on errands around the house.  We spent most of the early evening preparing for the District Convention (packing the diaper bag, packing extra clothes/diapers/wipes, preparing toys, etc.) and then spent quality play time.  Brian came home and we went to dinner at the Club Pheasant.
