alien baby

lily has been a gem all weekend.  and i'm not even being sarcastic.  she's napped, she's slept through the night, she's been cheerful and interactive, and not fussy or whiny at all.  at all, people!  it's been kind of a miracle around our house.  we're enjoying her, where there have been days we tolerate her only because we're contractually obligated.  we had a family outing to san francisco on friday (more on that later) and an incredibly full day on saturday, where lily spent most of her time in the carseat or a shopping cart seat.  and she was an angel the entire time!  it's like an alien being took over her body and is so happy to be a human they are being nothing but a joy and a delight.

there are moments (just moments, mind you) where i think i could do this again.  and then i read past journal entries and remember why i cling to my "one and done" mantra.
