Oh...the irony

We woke up a little before 6 this morning (as usual) and fed the babies. They typically go right back to sleep after that and they did...we have such great babies, don't we? Anyway, I had been up a few times last night with Matthew (dirty diaper, random howling, etc.) and Bill said, "Why don't you go back to sleep for like an hour or so?" So, I did. It was glorious and I fell right to sleep without worrying about a thing. About an hour later (of course before my alarm went off), I hear Bill getting dressed and start to rise from my slumber. He kissed me good bye and went downstairs to get his things ready for work. I snooze for a couple of minutes and then hear him leaving. Just as he clicks the deadbolt on our front door, Hailey starts crying...can you believe it?

Anyway, I got her to go back to sleep so I could take a shower (her pacifier was right under her head...a little uncomfortable?), but I can't even begin to tell you the panic that I felt when she started crying...OMG...I won't be able to take a shower, eat breakfast, check my email, look at facebook (to which I am totally addicted...argh), or anything!!! What will I do when they give up this early morning nap? I know they're going to...what to do, what to do! I'm panicking a little bit b/c this early morning time is my salvation sometimes! Okay...deep breathing...you will be alright.

I've started something new this week...rather than putting them down for naps and immediately coming to turn on the monitor, I've started to leave the monitor in the off position. I found myself going up at every little grunt and groan and I was driving myself crazy!!! My house is not huge by any means, so if it really counts, I'll hear it. I put my maternity clothes in the basement and got some of my prepregnancy clothes out of the container that housed them for the past year. I missed my clothes! Now I just wonder when I'll wear them since I find myself in sweats and workout clothes every day. What can I say? They're comfortable! I can hear Stacey and Clinton (WNTW) chastising me as I write this!

I start tutoring next week which will be nice. Not only will it allow me to get out of the house for an hour or so, but I'll start making some extra money! I hope I still remember how to teach math! Have a great day...I'm off to indulge in some facebook...it's truly addictive!
