Our days start VERY early. Somewhere between 5-6am, I hear my little guy starting to stir in his crib. I can tell you 99% of the time I am no where near ready to awake. He is pretty good about being happy in his crib until I come get him, after 6am.
We head downstairs and begin our day. He gets his cup of milk and usually a homemade muffin- then we sit and watch a show of his liking. Long gone are the days where I can watch the news (generally I have no clue of the weather or anything else happening). While he is content, I make coffee, read my devotions and catch up on some of my favorite blog reading (maybe I should check the weather instead).
Today I knew he would be extra tired because he was stirring around 5am (ugh). I knew it was a long morning ahead. There are a few places that open around 9am by us. It was a desperate move on my part but he wasn't going to last all morning if we didn't get out of the house.
So off to the pet store...
Do you see the baby mice in the picture above? I actually though they were cute. Worker at the store said they were 4 days old.
He loves the isle of turtles, spiders, snakes, bearded dragons and lovely other things. I hate it. I get the chills walking through and can just imagine if the animals got out of their cages.
This summed up our morning & while I attempted to get one more errand in...Austin fell asleep in the car. It was okay with me for a catnap, as I had time to sit and catch up on the internet. I am accepting that my days are controlled by naps and sleep. However, we are a much happier household when we get our rest.
