to have coffee with a friend to chat about exciting projects for you peeps...
to get some special tutorials done...
to go out hunting for vintage sheets...
hahaha...to get you to agree with me about how cute this is...
and to figure out how to make my hubby not hate valentine's day so my daughters can enjoy it.
what week....phew. i'm pooped ladies. the coffee just isn't cutting it this week. harper is cutting her 5th tooth and my daughter had to switch preschools = mom/dad not getting any sleep. lots of big decisions, lots of anxiety on mack's part and ours, and a baby with a runny faucet nose (happens every time she cuts a tooth). i gave up the last few weeks staying up till the late, late hours so i can at least get 4-5 hours sleep so that's why my post's haven't been coming up till the morning right now. so far it's working for me but i hope it's not a bad thing for you early morning readers. i apologize and hopefully soon my original blogging schedule will return but for now this is what works for me and my family.
we seem to have gotten the night terrors under control - for now anyways. i started plugging our ipod dock in mackenzie's room with a playlist of soothing classical music, lullabies, this awesome children's nighttime visualizations cd for sleep and some other relaxing stories and it puts her out like a light. now when she wakes up she just turns it on and goes back to sleep...most of the time..haha. i find it calms her very vivid imagination at bedtime enough to soothe her and stop some nightmares. i have a hard time falling asleep at night too as that's when all my best ideas come to me and my brain is always creating late at night so i'm thinking she may be the same way.
this weekend i hope to get some sleep. i know, i know, it's a long shot, but hey...it's weekend wishes right? i also am crossing my fingers for some serious sewing time. i've got a special tutorial i'm working on that i need to get done. i can't wait to show you all! i'm also hoping to pounce around by the ocean in my new hellmart (walmart) rain boots. i'm telling ya, i finally got over my serious longing for hunter's and decided in the meantime to be happy with the ones i can afford and just live it up. they will come though, i have faith the hunter's will come home to momma and i can stop wanting to ask passerby's with them on if i can just touch them for a minute :P
what are you up to? how was your week? are you digging life in rain boots too? any projects you're working on? wishing you a weekend filled with puddle jumping in the sunshine, friends, laughter, and crafty goodness!
