Who needs a schedule anyway?


We are a day away before my mom, Josiah and I start traveling to VA.  We will leave on Thursday and drive half way to NC.  Friday we will get up and drive the rest of the way to NC, so Josiah can see Papa T before he leaves for England to see Harper.  Then Saturday we will get up to drive to VA.  We are trying to break the trip up for the little one. 

Josiah's schedule has been all out of wack.  Before we got here, he was going to bed between 9:00 and 9:30 and sleeping until 4:30ish.  After putting him back to bed he would get up to eat before I went to work and sleep until 8:00.  Well, he hasn't done that since we've gotten here.  The last two nights it has been between 11:00 and 11:30 before he has gone to bed.  He has gotten up to eat somewhere in the 6:00 hour and then goes back to sleep.  So I am hoping that once we get to VA that I will be able to get his room organized and set up as quickly as possible and really start working on a routine with him.  The only routine that I've had this week is stretching him to not eat before 3 hours.  There were a couple of days when that didn't work too well, but I think it was due to him going through a growth spurt.  All I can say is that Mommy definitely needs a schedule and routine!

I have to admit that Josiah has been a wonderful baby through this all.  The only times he has gotten fussy is when he is hungry or when he needs some time to himself.  When I say fussy, he isn't crying or screaming.  He makes a noise that sounds like a motorcycle starting!

Again, we ask for continued prayers as we will all be traveling over the next few days.  Chris is heading back to NC today.  His mom, sister and stepdad will be traveling to NC tomorrow.  They will all leave for VA Friday afternoon after packing up the truck.  Then everyone will leave for GA Sunday.
