There is a certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse! As I have often found in traveling in a stagecoach, that it is often a comfort to shift one's position, and be bruised in a new place. ~Washington Irving

Better Than Tuesday

Waking up six times lastnight was no fun. But...I was determined to put on makeup and real pants today, and get out of the house. I have been trapped amidst boxes and spit up and fussy children, but not today! I drank that Turbo coffee, put Jude down in the crib so that he fell asleep on his own (this is working, yes!), dressed Maddox and out the door we went. Andrew slept on the couch while Jude slept.

I returned with some cat-eye sunglasses and a lime green piggy bank that Maddox convinced me he needed.

I cooked lunch, cleaned the house, and nursed the baby, who spit up...but not as bad as yesterday.

Maddox and I got a wonderful 2-hour nap this afternoon on the couch while Lady and the Tramp played in the background. The best part, though, was that Jude napped at the same time and also for two hours. This is something to celebrate!

But really, the best part has to do with the cat eye sunglasses. They are pretty stinkin' cute. Now I just need some sunshine outside so I can wear them!
