Rested

Elyse and I awoke well rested today. I don't think she so much as stirred in the 12 hours she slept.....she never even awoke to eat until 8:30 this morning. I felt wonderful once I woke up and I'm determined to be productive and get this house back in order. I have laundry well on its way and dinner in the crock pot, which has to be just about the best invention ever. I can tell Elyse is still tired from the busy weekend because she is napping pretty often and I'm thankful we only have one thing we have to do today so she can catch up on peaceful rest in the comforts of her crib. It never fails to amaze me how much staying up too late affects her and how long it takes her to truly "regain" the lost sleep.....if only I could take random multiple naps to do the same myself sometimes. If I added it up throughout my life I imagine I would sleep for a week, maybe more. Speaking of sleep we have been working on weaning her swaddle over the past week or so and it's gone very well and she has transitioned pretty easily. She now loves to just lay in bed with her 2 snuggies until she falls asleep. Seeing one clutched in each tiny hand is just about the sweetest thing ever.

About Me

My photo
This blog is my hope to somehow capture moments that would have otherwise passed unnoticed, gone by simply dismissed as mundane life. I'm just a girl who adores her husband, I love the job I get paid for and am inspired by the ones I don't. I love that God has designed my life as a perfect fit for me and today I get to live it!
