Another short update

• Possibly found a daycare starting in January 2011 thanks to my mother in law - 2 months before my mat leave is over but I have contacted work about coming back early
• Went camping at Rushing River in Ontario with our friends Chris & Sarah and their little guy Ryan - it was beautiful! We had a great time even with the 40+ minute detour, one small trip to the hospital, a flat air mattress, and a little rain.
• Mika is still not sleeping well - getting to bed is good, it is that she wakes at 2-4am for play time.....
• Mika sat in her high chair for the first time yesterday! So cute
• We have started the first of 2 planned major renovations - removing a wall, building another one, closing up our back door, cutting in a new door, re-stuccoing the house, and possibly tiling the entrances.
• The second reno is planned for late Sept/Oct (although Joel seems to think November) which will include drywalling a room that is currently wood panelling and brick, tiling the brick fireplace, drywalling the ceiling, adding new and more lights, replacing carpet with hardwood and possibly expanding a bathroom to prepare it for a later reno
• It was my sister and Jay's 2nd wedding anniversary yesterday - congrats guys and many more!
• This Saturday I am going to the cirque du soleil show Alegria with my mom. (it was my birthday present) We are getting pedicures first though! (happy mother's day momma)

I thought I was over this.....

Today I spent another morning driving around putting Mika to sleep. (I also had to do this last night and about 5 times in the last 2 weeks) This is week #2 of her sleep problem and I'm starting to loose it.  She was doing so well waking only twice a night to feed and straight back to bed.  All of a sudden like a switch she mixed up her days and nights.  She is taking longer naps during the day - the morning she will sleep from about 8:00am - 10:30am and then her afternoon one is 12ish - 2pm.  She is now up every hour, crying, so I put her back to sleep and like clock work no more than an hour can pass and she is awake again - ALL NIGHT!  Also she has decided the day starts at 4am.... I know the Haywards are early risers, but......   any suggestions?
