Day 101...taking in the day

Apr 30

Martyn didn't want to sleep in past 7 this morning....that's ok with me, 7 was fine for sleeping in after getting up at 5 all week. Eli was less thrilled with it however. I brought him back to bed after changing his diaper and we all had a little bed time snuggle. I love that! It brings a whole new meaning to the idea of a "family bed"...and that makes me smile.

As nice as that was, I was already feeling head swimmy before even getting out of bed. I tried to ignore it most of the morning, and pay attention to Martyn and Eli. We went out to breakfast and Martyn was such a good boy. He just sat in his car seat and watched the people at the table next to us.

Even our server commented on how well behaved he was. That made my morning. It was looking like it was going to be a very nice day out. We came home and got a few things done around the house, all the while I had swimmy head and it was getting worse. I just tried to ignore it. We had some lunch, and made a list, and Eli went to the store. I stayed home and just soaked up some time with Martyn...and had a much needed nap on the couch with the boy. That felt so good.

When Eli got home from the store, he totally let me and the boy sleep for a while. Man, I'm still feeling head swimmy, but I feel better. I was getting frustrated during the day with feeling like this. Eli said he thinks I'm getting ready to start having a period again (boo!) which could be so I guess. Not exactly looking forward to that, but oh well.

Enough complaining about my head swimmy-ness.

It's supposed to be 72 and clear tomorrow, we shall see if that actually happens. I'm looking forward to summer time, and having fun with Martyn outdoors.

Right now, he's laying in my lap, all wrapped up in a blanket and sleeping cozy. This is probably my most favorite position. He smells good like a baby, and he just snuggles right down into me, and makes my heart turn flips. I feel so blessed right now, to have such a wonderful family and a wonderful son. In spite of feeling under the weather, life is good.
