Amelia has finally fallen asleep (well, as of 12:21pm). I awoke Greg from his nap (he didn’t get a good nights sleep, or so he says) and he and I chatted about what to do for the day.

We’re going to Target, Best Buy, Lane Bryant (and they’re all in the same plaza - yippee) and Staples. We’re getting, baby food, diapers, house hold items (such as some new pillows for the bedroom, towels, etc), a camera bag for my wonderful birthday/anniversary present, and some new bras and clothes for me and at Staples we’re going to look for a computer desk for Greg’s desktop (another reason why I favor a laptop over a desktop - don’t need a desk).

Another item we discussed was our money. When I did a preliminary tax filing last night, I learned that I can expect about a $5K refund (!!!). Greg doesn’t seem to believe it and wants to wait until I get all my tax information and possibly go to an actual account person to do our taxes (as this is something we don’t want to incorrectly) and with the loan Greg received (check has cleared the account - money is available for spending) and the employee referral bonus I am getting in April (which is $5K) that we could have our wedding this year! But, we still decided not to do so. We have a lot of other things we could use this money for that will go a lot farther and have a better result in the end. But, I did open our savings account this morning.

Last night I took that picture of Amelia when I went to check on her.  It tickles Greg and me to no end when we find her sleeping like this! And as soon as I put the blanket back on her, she ‘went flat’ and fussed. We’ve learned that Amelia sleeps like Greg and me; all over the place and constantly kicking the blankets off.

Speaking of sleep, it’s 2:00 and she’s still napping. Debating if I should wake her… probably not as she was up at 6:15am!

Anyway, on with the day!
