Soooo, hello! How is your Wednesday going? I’m sitting at my laptop feeling extra awake than I’ve in days. I’ll share extra about my weekend women’ journey to Scottsdale on the weblog on Friday however let’s simply say I virtually fell asleep on the sofa at 7 p.m. on Sunday after I obtained again. Then, this morning, I acquired a message on Instagram asking me how I survived the sleepless child days with Chase and I checked myself actual quick. On Sunday after I thought I used to be drained, I used to be nowhere close to new child child land drained. The newborn days are so wild on the subject of sleep. Your bar is so extremely low for what a “good” evening of sleep seems like that when you’ve one which’s semi-decent you’re feeling like you possibly can conquer the world. After which different days you’re placing a full cup of espresso away within the kitchen cupboard solely to seek out it the following day. (True story.)
Wednesday Morning
I slept in a bit at the moment and awakened proper round 6:30 a.m. This meant I had about 20 minutes to myself earlier than the boys had been up and I spent it letting Pepper out, studying my devotional and sipping my espresso. Then I started working on breakfast for our gang and made an enormous batch of einkorn flour Greek yogurt pancakes — some to eat and a few to freeze for simple weekday morning reheating.
As I made the pancakes, the boys sat on the kitchen counter and labored on a few of their newest melty bead creations. We not too long ago restocked our bead assortment and added just a few extra sample books and boards to the combo in order that they had been excited to have some new melty bead inspiration!
As soon as their creations had been ironed, it was time for the large youngsters’ college drop off, so Rhett and I stated goodbye to Ryan, Chase and Ryder as they headed out.
Rhett is within the section of little child life the place he loves serving to me with random chores round the home (the enjoyable ones, not all of them) and laundry is on the prime of his listing. He will get the largest kick out of spraying stains, emptying the lint lure and matching socks, so we threw a load of laundry within the washer after which sorted the clear garments out of the dryer collectively earlier than it was time to dress.
Since Ryan took the large youngsters to high school, I took full benefit of the flexibility to squeeze in a fast exercise earlier than preschool drop off and headed to Burn Boot Camp with Rhett to fulfill up with my pal Lauren and her son.
On the way in which as well camp, Rhett requested me why I like Burn a lot and I defined that I prefer it as a result of it helps my physique keep wholesome and powerful so I can do issues like decide him up, experience my bike, take Pepper on walks, and so on. We chatted somewhat bit extra concerning the significance of train and sleep and after I stated sleep additionally helps you “get large and powerful,” Rhett instantly corrected me and stated, “No, Mother. Sleep isn’t what makes you large. It’s your birthday!” Are you able to inform birthdays and turning into a “large child” is a prime precedence whenever you’re 4?
The exercise at Burn at the moment was a push/pull circuit that seemed like this:
You already know I like conventional heavy energy days!
After Burn, I chatted briefly with Lauren earlier than Rhett and I needed to go away for preschool. We popped into UPS to do a fast return (Rhett likes to be “scanner man” on the kiosk) after which he was off to his 1/2 day preschool.
I then drove dwelling to seize a fast bathe (hooray for dry shampoo), eat breakfast 2.0 and examine in with you guys!

And now I’m running a blog from the kitchen counter the place I plan to spend the following 90 minutes till it’s time to select Rhett up and sign off to hold with the boys. The climate right here is unbelievable (higher 60s and sunny) so we’ll be spending as a lot of our afterschool time outdoors as attainable. Soccer additionally begins tonight for Chase!
