today i am thankful...
1. for nap time! remi didn't really sleep great last night. combine that with my hormonal issues right now (pregnancy) and i think i only got 3 hours of sleep. i'm exhausted! remi's been cranky most of the day and i tried several times to get him to take a nap. i figure it'll probably take a week or two to get him back into the swing of things after being gone for so long. while i was working on organizing the pantry, i had put remi in his high chair to eat a snack and i looked over and he had fallen asleep. yahoo! i immediately ran over to the couch, threw a blanket over myself and slept 20 minutes until remi woke up. i sooo needed that nap! :)
2. for being able to spend time with my baby. he's been cranky most of the day but we did have some great moments. my favorite was smelling all the spices i use to cook with. everytime i open the spice cupboard remi gets really excited to smell what i'm going to use. he starts energetically sniffing while pointing over and over to the cupboard in a hint to get those spices out for him to smell. i love our game! today we smelled cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, garlic and vanilla. we made almond milk, dinner in a pumpkin and pumpkin pie.
3. for christmas music. ahhh, the wonderful sounds of christmas! i have to admit that i really don't go for all the new christmas songs that pop stars are constantly producing. they just don't really have the right feel to them. the classics are what i absolutely love and i listened to them today all day long. i used to start listening to christmas music in september but quickly realized that i got burnt out before christmas ever rolled around. this year i waited until this week to start listening and i am so charged up and excited about it. they immediately bring a christmas feeling to my house. i love it!
