I will be the first to admit.
There are some days that I honestly CANNOT wait to have a glass of wine (or two 😉 )once I get Gabriella to bed.
Today is one of them.
I know it is SO hard to believe that this little chick…
can really be a bit of a crazy woman sometimes!
Craig has been out of town since Sunday morning and won’t be back until later tonight, so it’s been Me and Gabriella for the past few days. I LOVE my girl time, but when she wants to be a fussy pants, it’s not so fun. 😉
Makes me really appreciate Craig’s help!
I don’t know what her deal was this morning, but NOTHING could make her happy. I mean NOTHING. Not even her favorite toy.
We did our normal morning routine- she woke up at 5:45am & we played for a while and I drank coffee. Then around 7:30am we headed out for my run. Which is what we always do.
I did the ‘30-20-10’ workout from Runner’s World, which I DO recommend- try it out, it can really mix your run up! (2 mile warm – up, 3 x 5 minute intervals + the jogging 2 minutes in between each- and then a 1.5 mile cool down run, totaling 6 miles)
During our run she took a brief nap, about 20 minutes, again, totally normal. Then we went to the park for a bit to swing. She LOVES the swings.
Then we headed back home & that’s where it all began. She just started fussing, which then lead to crying…and then screaming. SO ODD!
It was just one of those mornings. I tried EVERYTHING to make her happy & she just wasn’t having it.
I suppose we all have those days, and it definitely comes with the territory of being a Mom. 🙂 Thankfully now she is napping, not sure how long that will last. (her naps are getting shorter as time goes one…nothing like they used to be, I’m lucky to get an hour or two…I knew it would happen, just didn’t know when)
While her craziness was going on this morning, all I could think about was this:
(my favorite red wine: Apothic Red & their limited release Apothic Rose, which I have not tried yet, but I CAN’T wait to try it! The Red is DELICIOUS, especially chilled for just a bit. It’s hard to have just one glass 🙂 )
Wine. Yep! I cannot lie.
Sometimes you do what you gotta do to get through the day. 😉
Here’s to hoping for a happier little lady this afternoon! She’s a funny little thing. I think she MAY be going through a growth spurt, not too sure, I mean do we ever really know? But she has been extra fussy and seems to want to sleep a lot, even though she will fight sleep with everything she has.
The park always makes her happy, and I always take her in the afternoon too, so at least we have that to look forward to.
Hope you are having a good week so far! 🙂
Please tell me, if you drink wine, what is your favorite?? I’m always looking for new wine to try.
