I've been up since 4. I slept all of 4 hours tonight. Some say this is a blessing, that my body and brain will be used to running on fumes and I won't go into shock when Violet keeps me up all night. We'll see I guess.
Jordan and I fell asleep watching the Olympics last night. He chanted "USA! USA!" the entire time. It was kind of adorable. :) He wants to try to gymnastics, but after soccer is over. I told him that USA has an Olympic soccer team, but he didn't believe me.
While J and I were snuggled in my bed watching men's gymnastics and swimming, The Hubs and Shaun were in the next room up to their eyeballs in "The Walking Dead". They had a Netflix marathon. I've only seen a few episodes. I liked it, but something happened and I never finished season 1. Chris and Shaun both think it's the "most awesome show ever", so maybe I'll start from the beginning.
That's what I just did with "Army Wives". I watched seasons 1-5 in about a week. I'm crazy like that.
I love Jordan to pieces but I sleeping with him is not my favorite thing. He's a "sleeping snuggler" and I am not. I like my space after I fall asleep. I need to sprawl out. He always winds up right next to me. If I move him over, which I've done several times tonight, he winds up sideways with his feet kicking me in the ribs. Stinker.
Shaun is asleep in the living room. He fell asleep there during the "marathon". Chris is kind of perched at the foot of our bed since Jordan is taking up almost the whole space.
I'm really starting to feel tired, but C's alarm will go off in an hour and then I'll be wide awake again.
I'm planning on going to get Violet's crib today. Maybe my mom will drive with me.
And vote. I need to go vote. And be back in Gainesville for a co-op meeting at 7.
I can't believe it's almost August. We've taken a few weeks off from school. I had plans to school throughout the entire summer, but Chris lost his job and Pawpaw died and we were all out of sorts. But we're starting back tomorrow. We should be able to get in a full month before Violet joins us. We'll take a few weeks to adjust and then hit the books hard and heavy.
Did I blog about how I signed Jordan up for "real school" but now I'm withdrawing him because the only reason he wanted to go to "real school" was that he wanted a new backpack? I can't remember. But that's what happened. I'm relived. I was NOT looking forward to those early mornings.
We have a ton of fun field trips planned for this year. The zoo, the aquarium, the planetarium. There's more, but my mind can't think right now.
I hate the name "Dwanye". I just don't understand it. If your name is Dwayne, I'm sorry. I've never met a "Dwayne" that I didn't like, but I can't get over that name. And I have no idea why that thought crossed my mind.
I've been eating a ton of cereal lately. I never cared for it before, but it's become my favorite snack. I'm not picky, any cereal with cold milk will do. I've been chowing down on Honey Bunches of Oats here of late.
We spent lots of time with my sister-in-law and her girls over the weekend. We don't get to see them as much as we'd like to. I have pictures and will do a post about our weekend, but I'm not sure where the chord for my phone is.
Does anyone know when "Duck Dynasty" reruns air on A&E? It's my new favorite show and I can never catch the repeats. A new season is about to start up. Yay!
Our sermon at church was just for me last Sunday. And apparently for my friend Jodi as well. We were sitting together and talking about our husbands' (lack of) jobs and how we just needed to trust in God more. And then the praise team began singing about just that. And then Pastor Franklin preached about praising God no matter what. I loved it. I love when God gets in my face like that. It was so refreshing.
Okay, well, I really am getting tired. My alarm will go off at 9 and for some reason C's alarm went off at six thirty instead of seven thirty. He's already back asleep. Ha! I'm waking him up to see what's up and then hopefully I'll be able to rest until 9.
