Sorry no pics!

I'm sorry there are no pictures tonight -- I left the cable that attaches to the computer for downloading in Norfolk. It's one of the many things I forgot ...Rookie's crate among other things. So, at one point tonight, I'm sure - all 4 Cormiers will be in the bed! LJ is already in our bed...I fought with the pack-n-play, and it won. I have never had a problem setting it up before, but I can't get the short sides to lock. LJ and I had it sideways, upside down, (both of us inside like a fort or he was so upset), and any other way. Still, the sides won't lock. I am hoping Lance will have some luck when he gets home, but I have fussed with it so much, I am kind of doubting he will. I hope so!!!
Lance left this morning for Richmond, and after the Y, packing and lunch, LJ and I loaded up and headed out. I wanted to travel during LJ's nap so as not to mess him up, and it worked. We ran into a little traffic, so he get a really good nap. We did the deed of unloading all our stuff (we only brought a few things, but with my stuff, LJ's stuff, Rookie, food for LJ, pack-n-play, mattress...you get the picture), and LJ was over it pretty quickly. He was very good, though, and aside from a few small outbursts, we got unloaded, showered and headed to meet our friend Kelly for dinner with her son Robbie.
Dinner was great -- Robbie is getting so big - he's 13 months old, and it seems to me like he was just born yesterday. Enjoying dinner with him and his mom was a very nice evening. I loved it. Eventually, we headed home. Lj was tired, and it was close to his bedtime. On the way home, he and I stopped at Walgreens for milk and gatorade. We both were thirsty. Driving around Richmond was so funny for me. By now, after 2 years of living there off-and -on, it seemed like coming back home....well, not really home, but it was nice to be so familiar with a place. My car drove directly to the field and back with no effort. :)
So, that brings us to the pack-n-play. I have given up, given LJ a bath and conceded to the portable crib. Perhaps it will work when Lance comes home - I will say a prayer as I log off.

I hope your day was great. Sorry again about the pics, but there will be some on Sunday night. Get some good rest and pray that we do, too!
Love,
Jamie
