Happy New Year! Last night we were going to actually head out to enjoy new year's eve for once. Keira decided to have tummy upset, so we stayed home. I fell asleep at 7pm, but got up in time to put the kids to bed. It was a late night for them and I felt disappointed we didn't get to go out to enjoy festivities with other adults and kids. Cabin fever has been rough this holiday.
Keira fell asleep with her dad and when I came in, he offered me his spot. I took it without a second thought. I was dying of exhaustion. So as soon as he fell asleep Anna woke up from her cold and wouldn't go back down. Se7en (1995) was on TV, so I stayed up and watched that while holding her. I had to stay up until the end even though I had seen it a billion times. Part of me wondered if she was taking in the audio while she slept, but I wasn't worried enough to change the channel.
Around four I put her down and headed to bed. I decided my sleep was more important than her sleep. Of course, her dad didn't know that and as soon as I fell asleep she was screaming, so he got up for the rest of the night. Yay! Kids!
This morning, after a night of the baby coughing, I decide to take a nice relaxing bath. Mommy should have some time alone. So Toddler needs to use toilet, baby comes in as cheering squad, cat and dog on side of tub to see why the water is running. Finally they all leave except the cat and I grab shower so we can get going. Today, at a minimum, we need to visit Grandma.
We want to go out to eat today. We will probably end up at McDonalds so the kids can run around for an hour and get rid of some energy. We can always eat when we get back home.
And maybe tonight we will get some sleep.
