The trip to the convention was pretty quick all things considered. We got to the hotel earlier than we had before. We checked into our rooms and unloaded the car. I ran to the Wal*Mart and got those last few items we needed.
I haven’t relaxed into a convention in a long time. We usually hit the ground running and go from there. This time we had the time to talk to people we know and catch up on news without the frantic “I’ll catch up with you sometime this weekend.”. The Banquet was nice and the Radio Play was top notch. Peter took over Baby Duty so I could have some time to be an adult without the Munchkin attached to my hip. I caught up with some of the gang that I know and was introduced to new people. About 11 my energy just sagged so I went back to the room and went to sleep.
At some unknown hour (I am betting 3 AM) Caroline started to whimper and then cry. Peter got up, picked her up, and put her on my chest. She let out a happy sound and went back to sleep. I can’t say I got much sleep after that. She kept trying to roll off the end of the bed in her sleep. So I would doze and snap to when Caroline changed were she wanted to be on the bed. At 7:30, she was awake and the rest of us had to join her in the wakefulness. I am going to take a nap when she does so I can be ready for this evening.
I am grateful for what little sleep I got.
