i am almost too giddy that i am actually blogging, to think of where to begin.
how about yesterday?
what do you do with a cranky, whiny, super cute :) toddler who wakes up at 5am and then only naps for 1 hour?! ah! (what's with the scrunch face, g?)
rejoice when the next day he sleeps for 3 hours and counting! amazing.
poor thing. we have been transitioning down to 1 nap for a few weeks + flu shot + teething+ case of the runs. perhaps today is finally a break through! knock on wood, because we shall see what tomorrow holds.
now then, before i divulge about all the wonderful things i have been able to get done today, i will put a huge disclaimer: i know there are those "super moms" out there who do these things and more each and every day. perhaps with more than 1 child too! and to you- kudos! here is your pat on the back, because i really am in awe at how you get 'er done!
but man on man.
today while the g-man slumbered in dream land, i:
*exercised!
*checked on my dreaming babe!
*danced around to Dora the Explorer, while thinking up some moves for our youth road show!
*talked to some friends!
*made dinner!
*checked on my dreaming babe!
*ate lunch, uninterrupted! :)
*showered!
*combed my hair!
*changed into regular clothes and out of p.j.s!
*painted my nails this color! (these are not my nails:))
*read some of this book,
while waiting for nails to dry, and was inspired
"the average woman today, i believe, would do well to appraise her interests, evaluate the activities in which she is engaged, and then take steps to simplify her life, putting things of first importance first, placing emphasis where the rewards will be greatest and most enduring, and ridding herself of the less rewarding activities."

*created two more halloween crafts!
*checked on my dreaming babe!
*blogged this posting!
so when this time all comes to an end and i can hold my well rested little man, i will
be able to better handle my cranky, teething little man!
oh the adventures of motherhood!
