Ahhhh I feel so well rested today since I didn't work last night. Feels so much better than yesterday morning when I had to wake up after 3 hours of sleep. For some reason, now that Miles is sleeping so well these days Cody is the first one up in the morning and the first to wake up from their tandem nap. It's so not nice lol. A month ago Cody was napping for around 3 hours in the afternoon. I want that kid back! I'm surviving anyways. I got so much done here at the house yesterday even though I had only had about 4.5 hours sleep total. I tend to wake up and set goals for myself for the day even if they're something small like cut up a watermelon, sweep the floor and organize the fridge. I find if I do a bit of cleaning every day then I never have a day where I wake up and think omg this place is a disaster lol. Today I am folding and putting some laundry away, walking to the library with the kids, taking them to Miles 12 month doctor appointment and just cleaning up random small messes everywhere. This is on top of my regular stuff which involves feeding the kids their 3 meals, changing and dressing them a few times, doing the dishes twice a day, making dinner for Mike and I, pumping twice a day and cleaning up the toys a couple times a day.
I haven't taken Cody to the dentist yet and I think he might have a cavity. Shit. I do brush his teeth but sometimes not twice a day. He wouldn't even open his mouth for the doctor to look at his teeth the last time he went to the doctor so this is going to be interesting. I am going to call and make him and I appointments at a dentist in town since I haven't been in years (no one to watch the kids) and I chipped a molar when I was pregnant with Miles. I have always gone to the dentist in the town I grew up in but that's a 45 minute drive away now so I am going to switch. I hope he doesn't do too badly. I am going to book his appointment on a Friday afternoon so I can leave Miles with Mike and give him my full attention. Bleh.
I got my last maternity leave paycheck yesterday! So sad lol. It was a half payment (one week instead of two). On the plus side, I get my first paycheck from work next week as well as my monthly $380 from the government for my baby bonus. Yay! I'm rich lol.
Random thoughts:
-I want to get pictures taken of the kids soon since they just turned 3 and 1. Maybe somewhere cheap like Walmart
-I need to find a good book to read. I haven't been reading much lately besides magazines and bits and pieces of a book about the Duggar daughters
-It sucks how many cloudy days we are having lately. I know we are probably only a month or so away from reaching the point where it is too cold to venture outside often and I am appreciating the summer so much more after that brutal winter. It is cloudy again today and unless my weather app says there is a huge chance of rain we are walking to the library anyways because we need to spend time outside
-Cody has been so cranky for days now that it's driving me crazy. Not sure what is up with him. Did he get a memo telling him to act like a brat now that he's 3? Lol
-I really need to get some contacts and order some glasses online. Not sure why I am dragging my feet on those things. Probably because I have so much to do on a daily basis
