The Random of Steph

Usually I look forward to Mondays with a strange sense of completion and routine. After a weekend that is busy more often than not, I long for a quiet day of laundry, sesame street and perhaps an errand or two. I'm free to visit friends, sew during nap time, go browsing at Goodwill, etc. I may vacuum, do dishes or clean.... which I don't like but makes the house feel much more pleasant. The morning, Monday took a turn for the worse. A little something called a "coughing kid" paired with "mommy sleeping in the munchkins room" added up and delivered a "get up with a horrible coughing fit at 5am" and "decide it was time to get up". Scott and I debated whether to have coffee or not as the munchkin happily ate yogurt. Would we get a nap? (Are you thinking what I'm thinking? ) "Not a chance". Scott poured the brown goo while I shut off the crock pot and turned on my Scentsy burner with the coffee scent. I like maki

This morn the munchkin had her usual oatmeal with daddy breakfast. Apparently, Scott also fed her a banana and a piece of cheese. About an hour later, daddy leaves for work, and she needs cheese. Okay. Then I grab a bowl of cereal for myself. She demands not only to help feed it to me, but eat it herself. In between bites of cheese. After we've finished my cereal, while I'm on the phone she finds a banana in my lunch sack from yesterday. She runs up to me saying, "please, please." I feed her half of it, which she sucks down like a vacuum. I kid you not, she's eaten three times what I have this morning. And given the chance, she'd probably eat more.

Post to blog. Maybe at least monthly. We'll see how this actually goes. :)
