What a day! I woke up w/ no energy but have managed to motivate myself enough to get a lot accomplished and to deplete the rest of my energy. Caleb and I went out to play today since it was considerably warmer than yesterday. Since we got rid of the 2 non working cars we had sitting in our driveway I thought that would be a great place for him to ride his bike. And while he rode I swept up leaves and raked the back yard. Yes, raked. We didnt do a great job in the fall getting rid of the leaves so they had made quite a mess w/ all the melting snow. Caleb kept jumping in the piles of leaves. It was adorable. We got very dirty and even muddy and tired. So in we came for lunch and to give Caleb a bath. After that he played a bit, but not very much, he was worn out. So nap time, at last.
Being the Super Woman that I am, I used this time to scrub the kitchen and dining room floors, do laundry and head back outside to bag leaves and trash from the yard and driveway. Came in to finish up laundry and console a crying Caleb back to sleep. He wakes up after about an hour of napping everyday just to look for me then once I get him and put him in our bed he goes right back to sleep. So here I am now, enjoying some restful blogging. Ah….peace and quiet….what a day! And it’s only 3! Couple more hours to go before we go get Dean from work and then the night gets busy with dinner making, eating, cleaning up and then lounging around. Maybe if its still nice out we’ll take a family walk. I cant wait for spring and summer so we can spend nights walking to the park as a family. Dean loves to go fly his kite and Caleb loves just about anything outdoors. Me, I just like to walk and watch them have fun. *heavy sigh* I love being a wife and mommy!
