New things to get giddy for
I find myself getting really giddy over the strangest things lately maybe it's the new form of teether sleep deprivation.. but check this out... I'm being honest... I get really happy/excited about this stuff! like:
the two pack of neosporin at the costco (two BIG tubes too!)
the two pack of children's motrin at the costco (two BIG bottles too!)
a $1 a box special on Dora band-aids
a Buzz Lightyear toothbrush
a crazy plush stuffed animal of the cat or dog persuasion
a new episode of Backyardigans ( I love Uniqua best... Baby Girl likes Pablo and Big Boy likes Tyrone)
Whenever a fire truck is parked at the lot of the grocery store and fire fighters are inside getting groceries (Big Boy and them have a mutual admiration society)
construction sites
the far off sound of a diesel train horn causing Big Boy and I both to gasp, look at each other and say "hear THAT?!?!? a train!"
Knowing Baby Girl sees a dog whenever I hear her panting like one
Knowing Baby Girl sees a Cat whenever she meows like one
hearing the chime and clatter of baby girl's walker going all over the pergo downstairs
Seeing a preview for some goofy CGI pointless kid flic, turning to Hubby and saying "Ooooh!! Family movie trip!" I mean, really.... is Valiant all that cool???
I moved Baby Girl's crib to Big Boy's room again. Right now she's crashed out in the Pak N Play in our room. I'm awaiting her middle of the night wake up call/ nursing session/ possible motrin dose to move her down the hall. She and Big BOy have now moved to completely different nap times. So I have 20 minutes during the day when she's waking up and wanting to be held/changed/ nursed/ brought back to this world while he wants to be read to/ sung to/ conversed with/ put down. Usually what I get his about 5 minutes of them taking turns screaming.... a few minutes of them both climbing on me and competitively body blocking each other followed by both of them having a fit and Big Boy have the bigger fit as I leave him to go to sleep.
I'm tired, but adjusting to my "no nap; no way in hell" for me lifestyle.
