The Daily Hailey

Today sort of felt like a ton of bricks, and it really shouldn’t have. Brady let me sleep in while he took the kids this morning, and I slept until 11:00!! It was pretty awesome. I ventured downstairs to hang out with the fam for a while, but felt pretty sluggish. That tends to happen, I think, after such a long sleep. I’m certainly not meaning to complain. It was just weirdly off. We came upstairs and had soup for lunch. I felt stupidly overheated by the end of that and went to lay down on the bed by the breeze of the fan while the kids finished lunch. I basically just flopped down flat on my stomach on the bed. Yes, I can still lay on my stomach. After a little while, I heard Dekker come into the room saying something about taking care of mommy. He had his big scoop shovel and then just a normal shovel. He informed me he was going to feed me soup. And he did. It was adorable.

This redeemed him a little for lunch. He was fussing about something at the table, and threw himself around enough that he fell off of his chair. He didn’t hurt himself at all, so I didn’t have much compassion for him, to be honest. But I made a quick dive to try and save him from hitting the floor and did a number on my already-fragile tailbone. I can’t pinpoint what it was specifically, but I know that it hurts like it did pretty freshly after I fell down the stairs last week. I was getting a bit fed up with it already, since it has stopped improving and now just hurts at the same dull level every day. But now it really hurts again. So thats fun.

I’m a bit bored with feeling like I’m falling apart, and I’m not even! I know I’ve had a relatively easy pregnancy compared to many! But the fact is, my back/butt really hurts, and I’m a bit of a whiner. We’re leading music in church tomorrow, so sitting on the piano bench might be a bit interesting as well! Wish me luck!

The last thing I wanted to add to the blog today was Laela and the adorable little joke that she makes now! The YouTube video is taking forever to load, but I’m gonna put it on here when it comes! She throws herself back and is just such a little ham all the time. She knows how adorable she is. I wanted to get some pictures of her before bed, when she’s all puffy and sleepy and sooo cute in her new neon pink sleeper, but when I set her down on the floor in her room, she did her cute think and whipped herself back onto the hard floor, pretty much destroying any hope of sweet, happy, wide eyed pictures. Poor princess. But here’s her little party trick, anyway.

Thats all I’ve got for tonight. Have a great rest of the weekend, all!
