Will-O went to the symphony with his mom this evening. Things are more balanced in the household in the last few days regardless, but it is extra calming for me to have a little time and space to myself in the evening. I put the kids down, tidied up the place and started in on our taxes while half watching House on Fox. Yes, I am lame. It's the somewhat strange and simple things that please me--hmmmm, let's take a look at our past fiscal year and figure out a medical anomaly in the same hour. (Plus, I'm alone. Yippee!)
Worst Part of the Day-
Can you say "unprecedented"? Our Little Liam goes down for the night at 7pm at the latest. At around 6:45pm he gets soooo squwaky and actually says "nigh nigh" in an exasperated tone like he can take it no longer. (It's quite melodramatic really--but he comes by that one honestly...) So tonight of all nights, (my alone night!) he goes down at 6:45pm and then wakes at around 8:00pm. At first he is just babbling contentedly. I ignore. Then I hear his little music box in the crib. I pretend to ignore. Finally he is full-on squwaking like it's a new day, time to get up. Arrggghh. What the? How dare he interrupt my tax evasion. I pray my ace-in-the-hole and his bedtime routine are not entering a new phase. Mama don't play dat.
