Thoughts

I. Did. Not. Sleep.

Really, miss sassy pants could not sleep. That is what I get for letting her have a bottle right before she went to bed because I was off getting spiritual upliftment at relief society. So much for relief. The last time she had a bottle she was up in the night with issues too. Apparently it just doesn't pass through well.. or at all. So I got some spiritual enlightenment but I also got exactly what I did not need: Lack of sleep. Lack of exercise. Being awake from 2:00-6:00 does not warrant a 6:30 workout. Sorry. What little sleep I did get I was rocking a cradle with my arm during it.

So there are all these horses on the road that lead out to my house. I love this, I know and recognize all these horses, know where in the field they are at each time of day, know when they lay, when they have babies. It's really cool. This one up here lives with a field of miniature horses. That have babies. Miniature, miniature horses. Jake calls them dwarf horses. So rude. But the babies are tiny! Sadly they are barely seen in the field because the grass and weeds just drown them. But when I got up for the first time to go meet my running partner the other day, they were right by the fence! So now I know next time I sleep enough to wrap my head around waking up early I will take my camera to document their tininess.






The only time my kids are together are when they are snuggling (bugging) Indie Lou on the bed whilst I get ready. So here is a nice little all in our pj's snap shot. Messy heads and all.






This is how it usually is. Piper snuggling her and Beck jumping around trying to wrestle them. (Binkie in tow of course.)







My friend, Julie, has been teaching our kids swim lessons. She so totally rocks. It's been so fun hanging out together everyday and a guarantee of seeing my friends everyday. And it's really odd that Piper is so old, jumping off the diving board and swimming.



Ok gonna chug another diet coke and wish it were legal to drink coffee, and then keep going with day and try not to fall asleep. And pray the stars align and all the kids nap together so I can too :)
Or so I can at least see who gets kicked off SYTYCD.

Oh I'm sorry, after girls night and then you're up all night. I would be so grouchy. By the way... where are these horses? Am I really that preoccupied that I don't see them? Wow. Well if you need anything, let me know. I am just laying on the couch with a cold.

I'm hoping a nap is in your near future. Good luck.

I love those pictures of all three on the bed. So cute! Piper is so cute jumping off the diving board. I miss hanging out with that girl!
