Another new week.

It is Monday again, and for once I am actually feeling well-rested and happy. I am usually not a morning person, and although I am usually in a better mood by this time of the morning than when I first get up, I have been strangely un-grumpy since I rolled out of bed.

It's certainly not because I had a restful weekend. Saturday Jamie was barely around at all and I had a difficult day with the girls. By the time the weekend rolls around I am so ready for his help, and he was busy and I didn't get it. Yesterday was also busy, but the girls were much easier than they were the day before.

I think the real reason why I feel so wonderful is because I got a good night's sleep last night. And not just 6-ish hours of straight sleep like parents of a baby are thrilled to get...Lexi was down by 11:00, I was asleep shortly after and she let me sleep in until 8:45 this morning. That's how real people sleep! lol

This week should be relatively uneventful. Nothing planned until Friday, when I get an afternoon to myself. Either my mom or my mom-in-law will be watching the girls and I will have the entire afternoon to myself to go to St. Paul and get my hair done. Something short and red, I think.

The weekend should be busy because we have a wedding to go to, but it will be nice to get out and do something. We won't be kid-free (although we will likely only take my breastfeeding lady with us), but it will be a nice change of scenery, not to mention routine.

So I have my fingers crossed for a nice, quiet, maybe even relaxing week. Hopefully my 2 lovely ladies are in agreement with me on that one!
