4:48am...a quick glance at the clock. I roll over...
One thought comes to mind.
Jordyn, GO BACK TO SLEEP.
But honestly after a 7:00pm bedtime last night I know my chances are slim. Maybe I shouldn't complain? So before she roars the rest of the house awake I swing myself out of bed and go across the hall to her room. I scoop her up from her crib and out to the living room we go.
We completely skipped a 'proper' breakfast this morning. I mean honestly, fully functioning at 5:00am is just not happening for me today. So we settle for a simple banana while watching Max & Ruby on treehouse all wrapped up warm in a blanket. Jordyn has no complaints...I'm still thinking, GO BACK TO SLEEP.
When she went to bed last night I put a pair of mismatch socks on her feet. They are fuzzy and warm. She hasn't made an attempt to rip them off yet so they must be keeping her toes toasty.
After eating only half her banana she guzzled down most of her bottle...5 out of 7 ounces. She's really content this morning. Only sneaking off the couch to play for a minute and then heading back over to me for a snuggle. Does this mean your going to GO BACK TO SLEEP I wonder!?
Nope. Not yet.
Instead she waddles around, cute as a button with her Blankie draped around her shoulders. She LOVES blankies. It's really quite adorable watching her waddle around with a blankie over her head. You would think she can't see but she watches her feet and the floor beneath them. It amazes me that she's growing up so quickly. Walking. Trying to run...or just trying not to fall. Blowing kisses. Playing patty cake. Giving bear hugs. Waving hello and goodbye. Drinking from a sippy cup. Eating with a fork or spoon. Climbing up stairs (not so good at going down them). The list goes on...she's becoming a semi-independent toddler. I feel like I just had her. She's still so small.
I was planning on heading to the gym by 7:00 this morning but if Jordyn would GO BACK TO SLEEP I could get there earlier. It's nice having Jamie home in the mornings. I can get a workout in early and still have the rest of the day to be productive. Got to take advantage because he'll be back to work soon I'm sure.
Well...I suppose I'll have some breakfast now too. It's been an hour and she's still holding strong. Although I have noticed the odd wobble, what I would compare to a 'drunken sway'. She's getting tired...which could only mean one thing!
