We Survived!!

As most of you have probably read on the blog in the past, Tiff's new job requires her to travel once a month for a week. Well, this past week was the first time that Tiff was gone to Alabama, so Addie and I were on our own.  Since I am updating the blog tonight, it means that we survived! I will admit I was a little nervous for Tiff to be leaving us for a week, but I got over it pretty quickly and did a wonderful job as Tiff says. Monday started early as Tiff woke me up a little to let me know that she was leaving at 3:30am, but I quickly feel back asleep until Addie woke me up at 4:40am. Getting accustomed to the early wake up calls is not something I am able to do easily as I am not a morning person, but I sort of got used to it by the end of the week.

Our week progressed well, as we had good mornings, happy nights playing, and easy times going to sleep. We didn't really do much except for play after work; most of this time was working on sitting, tummy time and reading books. Addie really enjoys reading books before going to sleep and it is very enjoyable to spend that time with her as well. Most nights she will cuddle with her favorite blanket and her Eeyore stuffed animal that we got for her from Disney last summer.

On Wednesday night Tiff's mom came down to watch Addie as well, so we ended up going out to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner and Addie sure loved going there! The big screens all had baseball games on and had Addie's full attention! In short we all survived the first week without mommy being home and it ended up being a lot easier than I originally thought that it would be.

Until next time,

Love,
Trav, Tiff and Adelaide

P.S. - Addie will be visiting Ripon for a week in August (15th - 19th), so if anyone is around and would like to see her, just get in touch with my parents. She will be spending the entire week with Grandpa & Grandma.
