The weekend has passed and we are into a regular work week. Brady got up for work unreasonably early, as always, and Solly woke up right around the same time. He sleeps through quite nicely, but MAN those super early mornings just suck, and we need him to sleep longer. Its a process, I know that, but I’m starting to feel a little bit crazy. We HAVE to get him out of our room soon. So Brady broke our rule (I was in full agreement, by the way) and instead of letting Solly babble for the next hour or two, he fed him some milk. Solly easily went back to sleep, and I was able to sleeeeep! As were the other kids. Solly’s early mornings are just killing us and we all needed a bit more sleep this morning. I woke up feeling SO refreshed, and the older kids were in noticeably better moods. Solly also slept until 11:00-ish, which was pretty awesome. Upon talking to Brady, I learned that he’s also feeling rested and optimistic about our week. Today just feels like a good day.
However, with being busy all weekend, it felt a bit sad that Brady had to go back to work already today! Made me a taaad bit mopey, but nothing I can’t handle. Thankfully, my mom’s afternoon plans changed at the last minute and she ran over to spend the afternoon with me and the kids! It made the afternoon go by so nice and quickly. It was also made nice by Brady deciding to come home a bit earlier than usual. He came bearing slurpees and positivity. He and I visited with my mom in the living room for a little while before she headed home to get supper on the go. It was SUCH a nice way to spend the afternoon!
Now that the house is waking up and the nappers are napping no longer, we’re about to attack our project of the day! A project that I’m not going to share about quite yet, haha! But hopefully I’ll have pictures for tomorrows post 🙂
This week will be a fairly busy one for us, but this has been a lovely kick off into it. I hope you’ve all enjoyed your Monday like I have. Feel refreshed! What else can we take from the wind if not some refreshment 😉
