The Productive Day I’ve Been Waiting For

I felt really really productive today. Finally! Its hard to get motivated at home in the day by myself, but today I was just overwhelmed enough by all that is coming up that I used those feelings for good, and I got stuff done. I did all of our laundry, I baked, I started some packing, I wrapped a few presents, and on top of that, I played with the kids, spent time with them, fed them, and I can confidently say I loved them up really well 🙂 They seemed happy at the end of the day. On top of those things, I worked with Rowan to get him eating more, and he did pretty good! He didn’t drink too much at all, but he had a couple of good poops that tell me that he’s still decently hydrated. Sorry for those of you who don’t want to hear about his poop. Its a big deal these days! But it was a good day for getting stuff done.

I’m feeling solidly successful, and I have that nice achy feeling radiating through me that says I’ve accomplished a lot. As things tend to work these days, however, my rewarding ache is a bit achier than I would prefer. My back is fairly sore, and my right leg may as well no longer be attached to my body. Dang pelvis is not the most cooperative part of my body, but thats nothing new to me in pregnancy, so I’ll take it.

Because of my full, full day, I am pooped! Brady got home around 6:15, and the kids bedtime routine begins around 6:30, so now that everyone is tucked away, it is time to eat and soak in the tub. I think he and I both killed it today, enough to justify not having to work too much this evening. Win!
