4th of July

Oma Yount came to visit for the 4th of July, bringing with her a very cute outfit and other gifts from Omaha. She sat up with Celia on Thursday night, a blessing for her very tired parents. Celia has been very fussy in the evenings, most nights awake and sometimes crying until 3 or 4 am. She's the most settled when she's held and rocked in the LazyBoy in the living room. It was so nice for Oma to stay up with her for a bit.

Friday, Oma went with Hannah to New Glarus and update the diaper stash. Celia has grown out of most of our diaper covers, so we got the next size up of the Thirsties. We're also trying to do reusable wipes, which has had mixed success thus far. Celia did very well during the drive and at the diaper shop, but she didn't do so well at dinner afterwards. It seems that she gets fussy around 4 or 5 each night. We ate in shifts and sped home. Friday night, Oma stayed with Celia while Ben and Hannah went to see "The Proposal." It was the first movie they'd seen since before Celia was born, and they enjoyed it very much. Later, we watched "Frost/Nixon" together on Pay-per-View.

For the 4th of July, everyone went to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings, and Celia wore the outfit Oma Yount got for her. She was adorable, and we took several pictures. Celia was a little fussy that day, so the rest of the day was spent relaxing together at home and tending Celia. We watched "He's Just not that Into You" on PPV, and had mixed feelings about it.

It was a fun weekend, and so good to see Oma!
