So Maddy slept straight from 7-5 this morning. Yeah!! She seems to be feeling much better. But even so, 5 am is too early to get up. So I brought her to bed with me (after she kept asking for the 'couch') and it took her a bit to fall back asleep, but the next time I looked at the clock it was NINE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING!! WOW! It's been a LOOONG time since I've seen the sun shining brightly when I got out of bed. Normally it's just coming up or it's still dark.
Of course, Matt was late to work so he'll be working a bit later tonight to make up for it. That's ok, though. I was glad to get a shower before he left today so putting Maddy to bed on my own is well worth the sacrifice.
I'm trying to figure out what to do about New Years. I know Matt and I will stay in and we'll probably have a bottle of champagne. I'd like to have some kind of special treat with it, but I haven't figured out what, yet. I do know that we'll have shrimp and grits for dinner.
Ok, well, she'll be up soon! I don't think she'll take much of a nap today being that she slept so much this morning.
Tea of the day: Mighty Leaf Tropical Green tea, Bentley Earl Grey, Bentley Orange Spice, Bentley Mango Green Tea--there will be more, I assure you!
