• Spring! At least in the city – I still want snow in the mountains to ski on for a month or two more – but in the city I want warm weather I can take the kids for walks in!
• A nice date night with Matt … all the time we've spent alone lately has been spent doing home improvement. It's it's own kind of fun, but I'm ready for an evening where I don't have to end it by cleaning my hands with mineral spirits.
• Bunco! I get to go see some of my favorite girls tonight. Yay!
• Sleeping in … tomorrow I don't have to get up 'til 7! That may sound early, but I usually get up before 5 so it's bliss for me.
• My bedroom to NOT be a mess. But I would have to get off my arse and do something about this. Soon … probably.
• The Weekend!
I'm So NOT ready for:
• Ben to be in a Big Boy Bed … he is so agile, so mobile, I fear a crawl-out any day. I have been thinking about crib tents but I just don't know if I like the idea. Of course I might like it better than a baby roaming the house
• Tabby turning 4 … it's getting too close for comfort! Hardly a month away! She's so big, so capable, so little-kid like. No baby left there. At least I like her lots and I'm very proud of her.
• The two half marathons I committed to running before June. Better get on that!
Ugh, the big boy bed already!? All kids are SO different, but maybe you should look into borrowing a crib tent, just to rule out that option. Via dumb luck, Abbie's crib is designed in a way that she can't crawl out the front without falling (which she did)… and now the interest in climbing out has passed and we are back to peaceful sleeping.
Also, my bedroom is a mess too — funny how cleaning my room seems almost selfish. Who would've thought that quality time spent on yourself would involve cleaning??
