Home Sweet Home. Were there ever more truer words spoken? We are so glad to be home. Downside is I feel like I've been run over by a train... is there a way to pause life for about 2 days so I can crawl in a dark cool room and sleep uninterrupted? No? Darn! Like having a newborn, I am trying to sleep while Lilly sleeps... and that just drives The Money Maker crazy... he teases me ruthlessly about my napping... but call me a lightweight... Mama needs some zzzzz! Lilly is adjusting marvelously well- even though our nighttime is just one big nap... 3 hours down, 1 hour up. Last night she practically passed out at 8 (we're trying to keep her up as much as possible during the day to switch her days and nights) but then she was up at 11 down at 12... up at 3 down at 4... up a little before 8. Whew... that's tough! That's the WORST part of having a new baby... the sleeping! I can handle just about anything during the day if I can sleep through the night. Getting up is rocking my world! I love my new Lilly... but I'm done... stick a fork in me... I don't want another baby! So besides feeling beaten by a gang of hoodlums my house looks like a tornado went through it! I've emptied one suitcase but have 3 more to go. But I've been repeatedly kissing and hugging my washer and dryer... it has been a beautiful experience to wash my own clothes again with laundry detergent & fabric softener. Ahhh... simple pleasures! More later... after another nap... and then another!
