I’ve been awake since 3:30am.
This is where I was from 3:30 – 5:30am last night. I heard P wake up first, and I crept in hoping to quickly settle him, but he was upset and wiiiiiide awake. For the most part he just lay quietly in his bed, as long as I was next to him. H decided to join the party around 4:15am. I heard him start whimpering in his bed, but it was completely nonsensical. He mumbled something about the nintendo and toys, then he started crying because he wanted to go to my parent’s house. At 4:15 in the morning. I was trying to settle him when suddenly he bolted upright…

I Just Can’t Even*
My day began at 4:30am today. I heard P stirring on the monitor, and as he started crying I slipped out of bed and dashed down the hall to comfort him so he wouldn’t wake H & S. I was in with him for a few minutes, then I crept back down the hall and into bed. Of course, that’s when my head started spinning with all the many, many things I have on my to-do list this week and I couldn’t fall back asleep. After a half hour or so, I managed to quiet my mind and started to drift off.. …just as I heard the door to the…

Note to self: Always Check Receipts*
It has been yet another busy morning. I think I need to stop saying that and just accept that this is my life now… busy is the new normal. Anyway. M was up and out the door early as he’s working in Toronto today. I heard P stirring shortly after M jumped in the shower, and slipped into the kids room to get him before he woke S & H up. We had a lovely snuggle while I procrastinated getting ready, but as I had the neighbour kids coming over at 7:15 I eventually had to accept reality and leave my lovely bed. I watch my neighbour 6 year’s old…

I FOUND IT.
Last night I told you all about our lovely, lovely experience seeing Santa this year. The kids are still talking about it. I love hearing them talk about what they are hoping to get from Santa in reverent, hushed tones. We already have the Barbie house S has her heart set on tucked away in the basement. She has wanted one for ages and M found one on an amazing deal after Christmas last year. He may or may not be as excited as she is, because it is finally, finally out of the garage. P is easy as he doesn’t really have a “great love” yet. He likes dinosaurs,…

Surviving Solo Santa Pictures*
My blog is fixed!!! I need to do a small husband brag for a minute here… he spent a chunk of time last night looking into what the issue might be, and he worked on it again tonight after a long day where he was on solo parent duty for dinner and bedtime while I was at choir. I told him to go and relax and he helped me instead. He is so clever and handsome and I like him the best. I don’t know how he fixed it, but I’m finally back and it feels soooo good. I feel like I haven’t really been able to write in the…
