Passover at Aunt Carolyn's and Uncle Charlie's







Last night we went to Stu's Aunt Carolyn's and Uncle Charlie's house for the first night of Passover. It was Brandon's first time going to their house. It took a little over 1 1/2 hours to get there and Brandon did really well in the car the whole ride. It helps that he watches Elmo's World on the car dvd player. Brandon had a lot of fun playing with Stu's cousins kids (Brandon's third cousins), Isadora, Avery, Rosalie, Caleb, Ali, and Matt. All of the kids loved him and couldn't get enough of him. It was nice having them play with Brandon because I was actually able to sit and eat without chasing after Brandon the whole time. He ate his dinner but was done a lot sooner than I was. Brandon especially loved Matt and kept giving him hugs. I thought for sure Brandon would sleep well last night because he was so tired from playing with the kids all night. He fell asleep in the car on the way home and slept for an hour but as soon as we got home and the car stopped moving he was up. And wide awake. The problem was it was 10:30. He didn't fall back asleep until midnight and then slept really badly. I find when Brandon has a hard time getting into a good sleep pattern it messes with his sleep the rest of the night. Hopefully he will take a long nap today and I will be able to lie down too.
