It was a low key day. Which was so welcomed after this last week of crazy.
It was also helpful because the babies were less than cooperative today, so if there were things I really had to get done, it would’ve been much harder.
I tried to be productive in the morning, and it just wasn’t going to happen, so I resigned to the living room floor, where we played, read books, and took it super duper easy.
For such a hands on morning, naps were short, and the afternoon was a similar level of whiny. That being said, I had willing hands helping in the kitchen. Simple supper, but it was yummy and I really enjoyed cooking with the kids.
A whiny, under napped baby tends to go to bed a little early, and more willingly. So, they did that, and the first round of kids went down not too far after the babes.
The evening wrapped smoothly. The last three chatted together while they gathered up some night snacks. Dishes sort of fell by the wayside today, and the boys jumped in to help Laela finish up washing the pots and such, which is not always the case. It was VERY warm to witness. I LOVED it.
Bigs are up, reading quietly in the living room. The dishwasher is running. Everything is super low pressure. I’m going to crochet a little bit (assuming Munchie Mix stays down nicely) and then call it early. Our newfound routine of 5am milk is not something my body or nervous system appreciates.
