A Better Day

Yesterday I was completely zonked. And I shouldn’t have been. But I couldn’t shake it!

Dekker woke up at 1:00pm for “breakfast” and by 2:30 was clawing at my legs, crying for bed. I lay him down in his crib, and he didn’t move. So I covered him up with his blanket and left the room. He was silent for about ten minutes before he started talking. I didn’t go to get him, because I knew he was tired. He chatted quietly for probably about a half hour or maybe more, and then was quiet. He woke up at 7:10pm. So I very literally saw him for less than four hours yesterday. What did I have to feel so tired about?

Besides getting to be around 2am two nights in a row, I have to legit excuse. And even that one was my own fault. I tried to crochet little boots for Deks yesterday, which was a mad failure. It is not the first time a crochet project hasn’t worked out, so it shouldn’t be a big deal, but it deflated me completely. I wasted my day in bed watching youtube videos. Yup, its true. A completely wasted day. I don’t feel too guilty about it. I would, but I baked in the evening. A brownie and ginger snaps. So I figure that counts for something, right?

I was nice and tired before bed. We had a really hot bubble bath, which was nice actually since Brady had been chilled all day, and since we hadn’t had a bubble bath in two days and I was feeling withdrawal. I know, I know, bubble baths aren’t a must to anyone but us. Then we watched a few videos I had left up on the computer for Brady to see. I found an episode of this show called “Born to Be” which I think is similar to “Behind the Music.” It picks a star or a band and then sort of recounts their history and what they’re doing now. Well, I found one based on Marianas Trench, and found it quite interesting, so I watched it again with Brady. I would link it here, but I don’t think any of my readers are that interested in Marianas Trench. I can take it. But it was interesting, and I really enjoyed it.

An accomplishment before bed, a bubble bath, and good tv. I was asleep before midnight, which hasn’t happened in a very long time. With that, I woke up by myself at about 9:40am to silence. It is currently 10:25 and Deks is just starting to talk. I already feel sooo much better than yesterday! I’m looking forward to taking Dekker trick or treating at a few houses tonight 🙂 He will be the cutest little guy out there! And hopefully, a the cutest rested little guy!
