Oh Wednesday
I used to look forward to Wednesdays as the middle of the week...two more days until relaxation! Two more days and I can have unlimited Erica time, unless of course I had plans. No longer. No days to look forward to until I can have Erica time and relaxation. No rest for Mommy.
Now I look forward to the two hour window of nap time. Not to relax, but to do laundry or clean. If I can get everything cranked out during Benjamin's morning nap maybe a little bit of "Me Time" after a shower. Oh but not today. Today Benjamin's stubborn side came out (I have to admit he gets that from me) and he did not want to nap when he was supposed to. So no Mommy time today, and let me tell you what, I'm wiped!
When Benjamin finally fell asleep (2 hours AFTER his normal afternoon nap time and after I had rocked him for about ONE HOUR) lots of noise and the slamming of doors almost woke him up. I must admit, I am not one for noise anyways but when it almost wakes up my little man who does not want to sleep I get quite frustrated. I just don't understand why people would sing very loudly outside a window where a baby is sleeping, or why doors have to be slammed so hard the door frames rattle. It's just not something I am used to...and it's an adjustment.
Oh peace and quiet....I miss you....
