...it really was a better day today.
In part because Levi actually had 3 good naps...which means he didn't cry nearly as much, because...He was actually sleeping!!!
In part because I LEFT THE HOUSE!! Oh my word - I need to do this. I love being home. Really. But the days I don't leave the house at all are much more difficult and i go stir-crazy, and...so does Jonah...and we just need to get out and have some space and interaction with other people.
I took Jonah to my Mom's while Levi and I went into town for a bit (and Levi slept the whole time!) - then hung out at Mom's for a bit. Then chatted with Angie on the phone, then picked up Jay from work...and...
Its 9:00 and both boys have been in bed for over an hour. Jay is at a youth retreat for a bit tonight and I am actually: ALONE!! Very rare. And I'm watching a movie and surfin' the 'net.
I'm exhausted, but...enjoying a little bit of time to myself until Jason gets back...and I'm crossing my fingers for a good night's sleep...
Happy Weekend!

Aw Kris. I REMEMBER. Oh my word, I remember. Your last post took me way back four years ago with my little new one. I'm pretty sure now - though I didn't know it at the time - that I almost had a nervous breakdown with that little guy in those early months. He was such a wreck, and I was one hot mess.
Thanks for sharing. Thanks for being so real. YOu are the rockin'est Mama, and those two little boys are so blessed to have you.
Let's chat soon, okay? I miss you. And - oh my word - your little boys are delicious!!!!
Amy

Sooo happy to read this kris. Yes. Getting out of the house is most definitely required to maintain your sanity. With or without the kids. Love you so much. You are doing such an amazing job with your sweet boys. xoxo
