Normal Day

My back is starting to feel better.  I am hoping that it will be completely better by the weekend.  There is hope at least now.  I wasn't so sure yesterday even though I kept telling myself that it was getting better.  Levi is starting to lose that sing song tone that all beginning readers seem to have to travel through.  He read with inflection tonight and it was almost as fast as I would have read it allowed. 

He is sleeping better at the moment, I think more a function of exhaustion than that his excitement has began to wane.  I think you can only maintain that level for so long before you finally have to give up and start to sleep better again.  I am starting to count the days to the vacation.  Actually I am simultaneously counting the days and blindly trying to ignore what I have to do to get there.  I can't wait until we are on the plane and I have nothing to do but relax and go with the flow.  Levi is such a pleasure to have beside you on a plane.  I don't want to jinx it but he just slips into 'travel mode' and chills out.  With the shows on the box in front of him and the DVD player as well, plus someone coming to give him food and attention at random intervals it is kid heaven.  The plane is a closed environment, so he is able to get up and walk around and go to the bathroom by himself, which also makes it kid heaven. 

I am sitting here on the computer when I should be doing more birthday things but I am tired but not yet tired enough to sleep.  Ah I better get going but this sofa is comfortable!
