I have to say, I am having a hard time thinking of anything to post about today. Despite two full-nights' sleep I am more tired today than normal. I blame being pregnant and the weather (it's supposed to snow tonight. Snow!). It's this time of year that I feel like doing nothing more than curling up on the couch with someone to cuddle, and alternately napping or watching a movie. Yep, that's about it.
Unfortunately I'm expected to do things, like work, parent, interact with my husband and others, cook, clean, etc. Don't people know it's hibernation time?
Fortunately I do get to hibernate for most of the winter. After the baby gets here, our only outings will likely be to daycare to drop Gabbie off or pick her up. I will be spending most of the winter cuddled up with the baby, watching movies or reading while she nurses or snoozes, and I kind of can't wait. Not kind of actually. I'm feeling ready for that to happen.
Now, off to do the million things I have to do before that happens, because, you know, feeling responsible and not wanting to leave extra work for others, and all that.
The Desire to Hibernate is Strong

That was the best thing about having a winter baby for me. I could -- and did! -- use the weather as an excuse to not go anywhere or do anything. We spent so many hours curled up under a blanket together, and it was awesome. Even though the NEVER SLEEPING EVER really sucked, I would go back to that in an instant, just for those sweet little newborn cuddles on those cold days.
I know you'll enjoy every minute of it.
