Hot Stuff
Its hot and humid this evening here at Casa McIntyre. The ceiling fan is on full, Ethan's naked save for a diaper, and Troy's keeping cool with a beer. (Actually that doesnt count - he'll "keep cool with a beer" in the dead of winter). I'm just waiting for another hour to go by so I can put the wheels in motion to get little one into bed. Or close to, anyway.
Tomorrow we visit our first possible daycare provider. I'm getting started on this process a little earlier than I had intended, but there you go. We have a few irons in the fire as possibilities, until the REAL search begins. I'm glad I'm giving myself lots of time, instead of just worrying about the whole thing. I mean, I'll still worry, but a little productivity thrown into the mix makes me feel a bit better.
I'm also feeling a bit more sane lately. Ethan had another good sleep last night (only one night feed at 3:00 am, then another at 6:30 when I bring him to bed with me anyway). It makes a big difference to both of us. He also had a good nap this afternoon. Its days like this that I love my pudgy little monster that much more.
I also have a new slew of books to read. I'm so glad I'm reading again (even if its just for a few minutes each night in bed, before I fall asleep exhausted at 9:30!!). It takes me forever to get through a book at that pace, but still, its like dessert after a meal. Something sweet to look forward to (and save room for!).
Speaking of sweet - my sweet tooth (I have one now, since being pregnant) is out of control. I think I'll go make some tea and have some cookies. But what I'd give for a large (Venti) Strawberry and Cream Frap at 'bucks. I had one yesterday (instead of dinner) and man - its like the best strawberry shake you've EVER had. With enough fat and calories to last a girl a week. But you know.
Cross your fingers, dear reader, that I'll get some sleep tonight :)
