Kennedy woke up at 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. this morning. This was the first time she didn't wake up at 2, and it was a nice change to get to sleep longer. That gets me excited to think that she is getting closer to sleeping all night. Once she sleeps all night we are going to have to invest in a monitor so she can go in her room...but that will be a few more month I guess.

JR's picnic is scheduled for today, but Larry never got all the information from work...so we won't be able to go. I'm kind of bummed about it because I really wanted to see him, but I'm sure there will be other times we will get together.

I talked Larry into running a few errands with me today instead of laying around the house. Our first stop was at the flag shop off of Raleigh Street to get him some WVU accessories for his Jeep as part of his Father's Day gift. He said he wanted one of everything...but he was on a spending limit and had to choose wisely! lol. Kaylee wanted some WVU pom poms, but I told her that we would get her some if we can ever afford to go to a WVU game.

After going there, we ran to Winchester to pick up all the title work from the dealership so we can take care of all that stuff. We got stuck in the big rain storm, and the power even went out in the dealership when they were getting all his stuff together for him.

Chili's is Larry's favorite place to eat, and every time we go to Winchester we end up eating there. He said I could choose where we ate, and I was totally thinking fast food...but when I decided on something other than Chili's...he was a sad puppy...so I said we could go. I have horrible luck at the Chili's restaurants, but everything was really good for once. The server was nice, the food was hot, and my meal was not frozen or raw!! I was very impressed...lol.

We ended our Winchester adventure at Costco to pick up a few items that we buy in bulk. Their strawberries are amazing, and I wanted to make the trip there just for the strawberries! We priced diapers and formula while we were there, and we will definitely be buying that stuff there whenever we run out of diapers and stuff. I did see Kirkland brands of both the diapers and formula and it was at a $10 discount from the brand named stuff! That really adds up on stuff like that. I wish they had small sample sizes first of the formula, so I'm not wasting all of it if it upsets her tummy. I think we might buy some of it just to try in a month or so when we run out of formula.

I finished up all my thank you cards from my church and my family tonight. I still have a bunch of other ones to do that I will work on tomorrow...but at least I get to pass these out at church in the morning. I will feel so much better once I get all of them done and mailed out to everyone. I hate being so far behind on them...but the hospital stay put us way behind on life, and we are just getting caught up on everything. I just don't want people to think that we aren't thankful for everything, ya know!?!?!
