2 parents

Ryan was a booger-y mess last night.  He was hungry but couldn't breathe, tired but didn't want to sleep. I am SO SO thankful that Alex was there to help me hold, soothe and take care of him.

IBU

I've been battling a sore throat ESP at night. I think it's mostly due to the heater drying me out but it's irritating nonetheless. This morning I took an Ibuprofen 600mg tab and it helped so much!! Only now am I feeling the sore throat again.

Leftovers

It's Leftovers day! Great not having to think about what I'm going to eat bc I know there's a ton of food in the fridge.

11/24: Alex

Today I'm thankful that Alex saved my turkey, gave me the Thanksgiving dinner that I wanted but most of all that he gave me Chloe & Ryan. I'm thankful for a loving family and great friends. My health and my career. My life and my faith. Thank you Lord for it all.

Nap time shifts

Chloe's napping but Ryan woke up. Alex said he'll watch Ryan while I take a nap too. Hooray! Tag you're it!

Norah Jones

Her songs always calm me down, so peaceful and at ease.

My mom

Thankful for this lady who gave me life and continues to give me unconditional love and support. She is currently pushing my 2 kids around while we wait for a table at CPK.

11/7: Movie time

I went to watch Doctor Strange tonight and it was a nice break from the normal weekday routine.

11/8: my right to vote

Regardless of the outcome I have to be thankful that I have the right to vote and make my voice heard.

Morning time with our son

Some days I feel like I don't get to spend quality time with Ryan and I know Alex gets even LESS time than I do.  I try to remind myself of that fact when he wakes up at 4am and wants to play. Today Alex also woke up so the three of us got to play for a little bit and we got to focus our attention all on him.  It was a nice change and made the 415 wake-up not as harsh.
