In an effort to get Ben to sleep in his “big boy bed” again last night I laid down with him for awhile. I just stayed still and closed my eyes and hoped he’d do the same. He didn’t, but I’m not complaining.

He used his sweet, chubby toddler hands to first pat my back. And he did it so gently. Then he rubbed my face and hair for the longest time. At one point he had his hand resting on my face and was just using his thumb to trace across my eyelashes. His little baby breath was blowing on my face and all I could think was:

Why can’t they stay little forever?

Today I folded 12 loads of laundry.

I wish that were an exaggeration.

I burned approximately 372 calories.

(According to some random website I just googled.)

A Mountain Dew has 170 calories

Sigh.

P.S. Will folded all the socks. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

Libby all rolled up on her side with her head twisted around to see the tv.

Let me say it again; so it’s perfectly clear.

I laid her down on the bed so she couldn’t see the tv.

She moved so she could.

(This was taken with Will’s phone; hence the quality.)

At her 2 month check up last month the Dr. said:

“Don’t let her see T.V.”

Ahahaha….

My title is a phrase I was unfamiliar with…

until I started The 30-Day Shred.

Now every time I hear it, it irritates me.

However:

tonight I am just slapping a picture up on my blog so I feel like I posted.

I need some time to sit and figure everything out.

And some more time to knit, knit, knit.

And some more time to sew up a cute dress for my cute oldest girl with some super cute fabric from a real quilt store.

And some more time to sleep.

We had people over for dinner again tonight.

Dinner was yummy.

Although I haven’t invited over any readers to my new blog yet:

I love you all.

xoxo

Got a new website for my blog.

Or whatever the right words are for that.

I have not had a chance to really check it out.

At all:)

Charlotte and Benjamin have been sick.

I got zero sleep last night.

We had company tonight…so I spent my free time getting the house ready.

I have been thinking deep thoughts.

Some sad. Some happy. Mostly confusing.

I love this picture.

Love.Love.Love.

Goodnight.
