Burning the Midnight Oil

I was so excited for Thanksgiving with the F family this year, that I didn't sleep one minute the night before! Mommy and daddy tried everything to help me sleep in the hotel room... they put my crib in the bathroom, they moved it to the corner of the room, they turned on a nightlight, they put my crib right next to their bed, and they even put me IN their bed. Daddy's last ditch effort of taking me to Meijer at 4 am (to pick up Motrin) got some very critical looks. Apparently, Meijer was offering their "Black Friday" sales early. The shoppers assumed that he got me up to cruise around the store for good deals! Needless to say, I was completely out of sorts for Thanksgiving and we had to call it a day early. It was a short, but very sweet visit. I am looking forward to much more quality time (and more belly laughs) at Christmas!!!
