Baby completely through us off any semblance of a schedule yesterday. She spent half an hour screaming for no particular reason. I finally decided she just needed to sleep it off and put her in bed and I guess she agreed with me because though she called me twice in 10 minutes, after I left that second time she slept 2 hours then woke for 10 minutes to eat and slept another hour after that. During the day she usually falls asleep in my arms so that's what threw me off. After I finally got her down I needed a bit to recover from the screaming and the next thing I knew it was a few hours later. I got stuff done, but not my usual stuff, if that makes sense.

Daisy seems to pretty much hate the swing, lovely. So I got cheesed off again about the fate of the bouncer since she actually liked it. So when Chris got home he pulled out the old exersaucer and we got it all cleaned up. She stayed in it about 15 minutes before wanting out. That's really the amount of time that I usually need to not have her in my arms, so hopefully it will work out. She's a tad small for it, but she has such excellent head control that she can use it pretty well. I just left off one of the big toys so that there's a blank tray area in front of her and I put her toys on there for her. She spent most of the time making this bizarre chick cackle and say "whoop, whoop, whoop, whoopie!" It's a stuffed animal she got for Easter and she's never really been able to play with it while lying down so sitting with it in front of her worked out.

There's more to write, but apparently I'm lacking in the inspiration department.
