D usually sleeps 7:30-7:30. Just as evening routines have become smoother, it's the mornings that have become hectic. Lots of grumbling, whining, tears and theatrics. We are exhausted by the time we are out the door at 9am. sigh.

This whole week however, D has been up since 5:45am! When I ask her why, she says so she can play and do all the things she wants to in the morning!! At least she lets us sleep while she plays in the living room (she closes our bedroom door to not disturb us).

And of course I can't be mad as I get a gentle kiss on the cheek at 5:45am! I pull her into our bed and she lays in between us for half hour before getting off bed and playing/"reading" books.

And she gets herself ready! She brushes, potties, bathes/clothes and ready to go!

I am happy, I really am. Not however at 5:47am as I can't fall back asleep.

How do you form friendships when you are the one taking the initiative all the time to meet and plan for activities. I enjoy it but every now and then it's nice for the other party to ask if we are interested to do anything.

Our lives have become so busy in our own worlds. I am not sure how we have gotten here. More time is spent doing stuff than being with friends (or family). It's strange. There's one acquaintance we have been trying to meet for a month now.

Last weekend was our first weekend we just chilled at home as a family doing nothing.

There are so many things I want to write up. I have even began noting ideas down, collecting article clips or bookmarking pages. But time is just not allowing.

We never took that photo of us with sparkling wine! But D is sleeping in her big bed through the night for two weeks now! yay!

She is going back and forth on naps. Her bedtimes are wavering differently each day! So evening time I do get is spending with N as I feel we hardly get time together.

So, I don't get time for myself! ah well for now.

Today, it was father-daughter day! Two hours spent watching Grey's Anatomy and clearing up 5 years worth of files, pictures, and videos that needed clearing!! Now I have to go through the hundreds of bookmarks I have collected. Making me wonder, what do you guys bookmark? How many things do you have bookmarked?

I found a ton of articles I have wanted to read. I even forgot about them! sigh.

But it's a beautiful day. I should have been out and about with hubby and daughter. And yet, this would be the only time I would have gotten! sigh....

Really hope D gets a spot at a preschool, then I can look for some work! But that won't be for another several months! Realistically it be a year!

Little one has consistently been sleeping between 8-9pm for the last week!! Now I find myself wondering what I am going to do with this time. When I am busy with the baby I think of so many things to do. Now that I am actually sitting with the time all I can think about is sleep!
