Last night, Solomon slept SO WELL! He went down shortly before 8:00pm, and when he often wakes up around midnight, it was 2:30 before he made a peep! He drank a nice big bottle and didn’t wake again until 8:00am. It was pretty awesome; I am truly thrilled with how well he slept. However, with him sleeping with so few wakeful times, I slept through a lot of medication :/ As soon as I woke up, I took my “superdose,” while Solly was still fussing in his bed. I knew I had to get on it fast. Not that I should have had to get on it super fast, as I took medicine at 2:30, but such is life. So I took my medicine, and fed Solly his breakfast. Then, we got the rest of the crew up and began the day.
If you’re around here, you’ll know that its been very grey and and windy and rainy today. Those days are always very quiet around here. Quiet in a good way, though. Currently, the two littler boys are napping, Dekker is building links, and Laela is playing with cars on the table beside me. While I diligently took my next dose of medication at noon, it was within an hour that my pain began. We’re two hours post-meds right now and its definitely not letting up. I’ve heard that the best thing I can do for it is to lie flat on my back, but that is not an option right now. So rather, I’m choosing to sit at the table with VERY good posture, and spend some time like that. Until Ro and Solly wake up, anyway.
While I sit here, I’m keeping busy with some online shopping, daydreaming about Ikea, and everything we’ll be able to snag when we finally get there 🙂 I’m also researching what we should buy with all of or credit card points. And what we need to organize all of the drawers in our house.
Lots of planning and organizing in my head, while my chest just aches and I get dizzier. Normally, on days like this, Brady comes home and lifts a lot of the pressure off by sending me off to lay in bed. But I’m just hearing now that he took a good fall at work today and will be coming home early, all achy himself. So it should be an interesting evening!!
Wish us luck!
