The title defines the last few days. Penelope had not slept a full night without crying in weeks. In fact, I said to Greg last night that I have no idea when I slept through the night without being interrupted by Penelope. Even though she quickly falls back asleep after little cries, I don't. And wouldn't you know it, she slept from 8pm last night until 8am this morning without a single peep. I was so happy as I desperately needed the sleep for a number of reasons.
I hadn't slept well in weeks and I had a migraine from hell yesterday which sucks big time when you have a 2 year old who loves attention and almost 5 month old who is teething and grouchy. Yesterday Finley slept until 951am and happily kept herself busy all day long. In fact, I am positive she didn't sit still from the time she woke up until the time she crashed on Greg at 630pm. She never does this - especially at night. He transferred her to her bed at around 7pm and she's been sleeping ever since. I hope it's because she was so busy yesterday and not because she is getting sick. That I don't need.
Plus it doesn't help that it has been so cold out here in Calgary and it makes it almost impossible to do anything with 2 little kids. I haven't left the house since the Roughnecks game on Saturday and I am getting a little restless and man could I use some Starbucks. After yesterday, I need it. Mother nature certainly doesn't think of little kids when she puts us in a cold snap like this. Please send us some chinooks please please please!
Due to my sickness yesterday I accomplished nothing. I woke up early this morning before the kids + swept floors, folded diapers, started laundry, hung up jackets, cleaned the kitchen + living room, vacuumed the stairs, cleaned out the pantry and was just doing Finley's cupboard when Penelope woke up so I just finished feeding her as I started this blog. I rarely ever accomplish this much in an entire week day let alone before 8am!! Hopefully this motivation continues because my entire house is in desperate need of some TLC!
Anyways gotta run, trying to figure out some activities Finley can do today since we'll most likely be stuck inside again until we leave for gym class tomorrow.
Happy Tuesday y'all!
