"Elizabeth slept the whole time."

7/11/91

     It was nice having her here.  I may have overdone it a little bit while she was here.  That Sat. we drove out to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.  We stopped at the island & went to the shop/restaurant.  I stayed in & had a cookie & milk while they went out on the fishing pier to look around & take some pictures.  We drove on til we came to the Eastern Shore then turned around and came back.  Elizabeth slept most of the time.

     I can't remember if it was that day or Mon. when we went to get the rocker.  Guy had always said he'd get me a rocker when we had a baby.  The first time we were expecting we'd gone to the unfinished furniture store and checked out the rockers.  But we didn't go back to buy it before we lost the baby.  I was glad we hadn't gotten it because it would've been a reminder of losing the baby every time I saw it.  So this time I told Guy I wanted to wait til we had the baby & everything was ok.  So we went & picked one out.  We were going to have to wait til after the next payday to get it but Sue said she'd pay for it and we could write her a check for it the day after pay day.

     Elizabeth hardly slept that night & we didn't hear the alarm the next morning.  Sue was going to stay home with me & Elizabeth while Guy went to church but he didn't go either.  I think he went that night.

     Monday we went somewhere, I forget where unless that's when we got the rocker.  Then we went to eat at Red Lobster.  Elizabeth slept the whole time.  Guy laid her on the seat by him - we were in a booth.

     The diaper man came before we got up that morning & Sue woke us up when he came.  He'd come the first time around 11:00 Guy said so that's when we expected him.  But he said he'd come between 9 & 10:00 every Monday.  Usually Guy puts the diapers out when he leaves for work.  But I made sure I was up once & Guy didn't put them out so the man would have to ring the doorbell so I could ask for a new deodorizer.
