No One Else is Here…

Today is such a strange day! Brady was home this morning, and is now working this afternoon. This almost never happens, and Brady would always prefer to crush his work in the morning rather than the afternoon, but this was just how the house had to be scheduled. He could not get in sooner. So we’re rolling with it.

This morning was spent playing, coloring, putting the last batch of cold brew together for the party, and filing our insurance claim on our van to get the hail damage repaired. Wavy also had her first try at tummy time, which she tolerated to a point but didn’t much care for. Pretty normal, if I remember right. So the morning was relaxed, but we got a few things done, anyway!

Brady had to haul out halfway through lunch, and I realized that I have no one coming through to snuggle Wavy today! Is this the first day without company?? I think it might be, and that feels crazy! Just yesterday, we had friends pop by three different times to hang with Waverly and the other kids. Today, nada! No excuses, guys 😉 I assume none of you are here today because you’re ALL coming on Saturday. Correct? Good! Seriously though, it feels strange!

I put the three middles down for a nap, Dekker is reading books and coloring, and Wavy had some milk and is now sawing logs in her cradle so I can blog. All in all, this is likely what our “normal” will look like for the next while. I can hope, anyway!!

Brady is picking up a little side table for me after work, and hopefully a cheese slicer so I don’t cut my fingers to shreds the day of Waverly’s party. Is anyone else HORRIBLE at slicing cheese? I’ve always been terrible at it, and its time for that to change. (Yes, I’m FAR too excited about the cheese slicer. Don’t judge me.)

Maybe in the remainder of quiet time, I’ll tidy up my bedroom and my en suite. Its all such a mess, and I admit, I have yet to fully unpack our hospital bag stuff. At this point, I should really just wash everything thats still in there. And my en suite is just generally messy and could use a tidy. C’mon, Hailey! Motivation!!!

Orrrrr I could just hold Waverly instead.

Boom. Decision made.
