Getting Back to Routine
Last week, my husband was home from work. Originally, I was supposed to be going out of town but it didn't work out financially. Husband decided to go ahead and take the week off work anyway since he had already put in for the vacation time. Having him home can be nice, but it also can completely put me off any intended plans..or chores. So, for the most part I tried to let go of the stresses (ha!) and just be with him.
Today, the start of the third week of school, I have finally felt like I am doing what I really do want to do while the kids are at school. I spent time with my little boys. I did dishes and laundry. I felt so darn productive. I am now tired, but it is a good tired.
This last week I've also been dealing with some horrid insomnia. I would pop a couple Tylenol PM, wait an hour, lay down, my eyelids so heavy. Then, I would lay there, my mind wandering around in an exhausted stupor, yet still refusing to let go and let me sleep. Last night, I slept better. Tonight, I expect it to be easier still. Things are getting back to how they should be and that feels so good.
So, after those random thoughts...
I played peek-a-boo with this gorgeous, perfect little boy for at least twenty minutes! We both laughed SO hard.

Adorable! I am jealous, that sounds like a great day! :)
What is it with the insomnia? I have it, too, right now, and it's killing me. We should meet at midnight and go to the movies or something.
Ahhhhh!! Precious!!
I had to work this weekend so Bill and the kids are at the beach without me. It is the first night that I have ever spent without my daughter....I miss them all.
