v.2

Last night Sienna did something that she hasn’t done in months. She woke up in the middle of the night! Ok, I guess I should rephrase that because sometimes I do hear her wake up throughout the night but she usually goes back to sleep on her own. And she’s been pretty much sleeping through the night since about May. But last night she would not go back to sleep and kept crying and crying. At first, we let her be, thinking she would go back to sleep on her own. 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes…I went in to console her, she quieted down. Maybe 10 minutes later she was crying again. This went on from 11 pm to about 1:30 am. I gave her a paci, then a cold teething toy, then some baby orajel on her gums…it did not work. For some reason, I did not think she was hungry but at 1:30 decided to make a bottle of formula, only 4 oz because I didn’t think it would do anything but at that time, I was desperate. Well, what do you know? It worked! She chugged away on it, drank the whole thing and fell asleep in my arms. After about 5-10 minutes, I transfered her to her crib and didn’t hear from her until morning. I’m so glad Yves was home from work because he did the morning feeding while I tried to sleep some more. It was so long since she’s done this that it threw us for a loop and we didn’t know what to do. I just hope it doesn’t become a regular thing! But if it happens again, I’m making that bottle first thing!

Well, I don’t have any Ryan Adams shirts to drape Sienna in so this ticket will have to do. I went with Joy to the show last night. First we met up at Mandoo, a yummy Korean dumpling place. The kimchi dumplings were fantastic!! We were pigs, besides the kimchi dumplings, we also got the pork and vegatable mandoos and bibimbob. And I was burping it up all night during the show but Joy didn’t smell it. HA.

Out of the many times I’ve seen Ryan, I have to say this isn’t one of my favorites. True that he played for close to 3 hours with a 20 minute break in between and no opener but it was too mellow for me. There was energy but not the energy I was looking for in a show. He went from one song into another and didn’t have any banter in between. He jammed but I just wasn’t feeling it. I was a little disappointed. I was waiting for him to rock out! Here is the set list as I got it from Music Slut

[Set 1] Peaceful Valley. Blue Hotel. Mockingbird. Beautiful Sorta. The Rescue Blues. The Sun Also Sets. When The Stars Go Blue. Goodnight Rose. Cold Roses. Freeway To The Canyon. Off Broadway. Please Do Not Let Me Go. [Set 2] Bartering Lines. A Kiss Before I Go. The End. Dear John. Nightbirds. Wild Flowers. Shakedown On 9th Street. Everybody Knows. Why Do They Leave. Two. Halloween Head. Goodnight Hollywood Blvd. I See Monsters. [Encore] Let It Ride. Down In A Hole. What Sin Replaces Love.

Me and Joy left during the last song of the encore. My feet hurt!

Well, Sienna didn’t really participate in anything Halloweeny yesterday as it was hard to find stuff to do for babies her age for Halloween. Believe me, I looked! I did put her in an Ipod onesie as a sort of costume. I figured there will be many years of Halloween she will be able to indulge in.

Working the ipod!

Here she is signing some Halloween cards for her cousins in Queens. We were too late to send one to her cousin in Jamaica.
