10-minute update

I just thought “Hey, what a great post title…I could totally make this a thing!” then I remembered how {not so} awesome I’ve been at blogging lately and promptly threw the idea out the window.

But really, I have 10 minutes at my laptop, with no kids to give you an update. While my phone is handy, I really, really prefer blogging from my computer. There’s just something so satisfying about hearing the keys click under my fingers. That, and I hit the delete key a lot less when I’m not typing with my fat thumbs.

Ok, so…8 minutes left…

I called about joining a gym. I’m thinking when I’m back to work full time I’ll try out their free trial. Something needs to happen or this girl won’t have any pants to wear when the weather gets cooler.

Being back at work feel good. It feels right. But, I do find it hard only working 1/2 days. I feel like I start a project, get 3/4 of the way through it, then it’s time to go. Then I rush out the door, pick up my sweet baby and proceed to forget all about the project I left behind.

She’s not sleeping through the night yet (something Rylee did at about 7 weeks). Normally, she’s only up once to eat. There’s been a few nights this week where she’s woken up at 12:30 but isn’t hungry, she just needs to be snuggled, then goes back to sleep. Then she wakes up a couple hours later to eat, goes right back down. Then up again around 4 or 4:30 to get snuggled again, then will sleep until 6:30 (or 7, if I let her). Weird and frustrating and sweet all at the same time.

Rylee really has a sweet & salty side lately. There’s moment where she’s sweet as pie. Then most other times? Not so much. She has taken to arguing with me…a lot. And I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t completely beside myself about how to “fix it”. She only really does it to me, not so much to Andy. I know it’s because of all the attention I show Reese. I get that, but it doesn’t make it any easier. In fact, I hate it. We’re working on that.

2 more minutes…

Andy’s back at work too. Ugh is all I have to say about that.

We really, really need to get Reese’s newborn pics done. And by we, I mean that’s all on me. Oh and we need family pics too.

Ry is going to a friend’s birthday party this weekend. She’s beyond excited. I’m excited because it’s at a fro-yo joint. And that reminds me, we need to go shopping!

And that’s all the time we’ve got today, folks…happy Thursday?

 

 Reese was killing me with the smiles yesterday!

Ry seriously loves her little sister.

Reese has started occasionally playing with her hair while she nurses. It’s pretty much the sweetest thing on the planet.

    I love the playing with her hair while she nurses – too cute! You sound busy, but girl, you've definitely got your stuff together WAY more than I could ever even imagine if I were in your shoes so give yourself a break!

    Keep those pictures coming!

    I'm with you on the arguing. I've gotten to the point of ignoring at times. Feel free to share some tips if you figure it out. LOL If 4 is like this, I'm so not looking forward to teen years!
