I know I have been completely absent in OVER A WEEK!! Tristan is down for a nap and the sound of silence never sounded so sweet. We are trying naps in his bed now...he's getting alittle big for his swing, so we are trying to make a transition from naps in his swing, to naps in his bed. He is a bear!
Life is nutty around here...AS USUAL! We are still in the process of sleep training Tristan...he has done sooo well. In fact, I dont even recall him waking up at all last night!!!!! He got to bed a little later than we would of liked, but we had to grab a few things at the grocery store and it took forever to get out of there. So we rushed home and got that kid in the bathtub, scarfed down some delicious green beans (his favorite), a bottle and down for bed at 930!! Meanwhile, Jay and I started dinner for ourselves; at 1104 my head hits the pillow and I am out until about 3am....Jay *cough cough cough....* then immediately goes into SNORE mode...I give a little nudge here...SNORE...nudge there....FINALLY he stops.
We went out of town last weekend to see Jay's granny (Tristan's GreatGranny); it's an 8 hour round trip for us. Naturally we stayed in a hotel so it could give us and EVEN MORE SO, Tristan a break from the monotonous ride. 4 hours in a car seat one way is exhausting. It took him days to recover from this trip!!! On our way back home, we were 1 hour from our house and Tristan decided he had enough of the stupid car. Enough of the stupid carseat. Enough of our 20th rendition of "twinkle twinkle little star" and "the abc's" (which by the way I sang in every genre...jazz, reggae, rap, country lol)....he was ready to be out and essentially run a marathon!! He had no time in his day to be wasting it riding in the darn carseat.
My house is a mess and I need to clean, but with my husband still not home from work, the dogs asleep outside, my baby boy taking a nap....how can I pass up the blissful sound of peace???? A time where I can write, be at one and at peace with my thoughts (WHICH NEVER HAPPENS!!!!!!). I wish I had that perfect bathroom with the biggest bathtub in it, so I can take a bubble bath and relax; escape the caos that usually comes from the moment my foot steps through the doorway. Energetic dogs, nutty cat, a crazy husband, an ever so learning baby, a tiny little house...dinner, cleanup, laundry, animals, this that up down.....aghhhhhh hahaha
No we aren't driving (pics down below), just one of a few stops we needed to take to change diapers, feed him and let him stretch his poor little legs). (Pic to the right >>>>>) At the hotel...happy little baby!!
