Thursday August 30th

Yesterday after I got home, Vallerie was a bear. She was just so bossy. Everything had to be her way or she would totally freak out and throw a giant tantrum. I tried my very best to keep her as calm as possible. It didn't work so well at times.

I made her a pumpkin hat. I used my knitting loom for it. The picture I took looks way better than the actual hat, so I think I am going to try again. This time, not on the loom.

After Vallerie was in bed Eddie and I watched some tv. Eddie picked a movie from Netflix. It was about these people in a plane crash who get chased through the middle of nowhere. You don't find out until the end what they were being chased by. It was... dinosaurs. Oh my god. It was terrible!

After that we went to bed. Vallerie was cold last night so we opened up her door to let some of the cool air out. Well, Eddie went to the restroom and woke her up around 2am. She didn't want to go back to sleep so Eddie brought her into our room to try and get her to sleep with us. She really didn't want to do that. I was actually trying to go back to sleep, and she would push me and say "wake up wake up". She was in the bed for about 30 minutes, and then we decided it was time for her to go back to her own bed. She went back to sleep pretty quickly.

Tonight I will probably go to the grocery store, and then maybe work on another hat for Vallerie. I might try making one with ear flaps. We'll see.

Here are some pictures of what I made:
