One of those good days

My husband has been home on “manternity” leave for the past 3 weeks (and got approved for a 4th week– hallelujah!) He has been a HUGE help around the house, entertaining Ty and holding Lily so I can get clothes folded or take a shower (and yesterday, a long, glorious bath…in the middle of the day!)

But today takes the cake. It was one of those perfect mornings. Ty slept through the night (he’s had a little trouble adjusting, and has started waking up crying in the middle of the night) and didn’t wake up until after 9. Lily fell back asleep after her 7 am bottle, and therefore I did too. We all three woke up at 9:15 to Bob Willis playing on the computer and the smell of pancakes, eggs and cinnamon rolls. After giving Lily her early morning bottle, Steve got up and decided to make breakfast. Ahhh! Normally, breakfast for me is cereal and coffee, so this was a real treat.

After breakfast I held off on doing the dishes. I cuddled with my big boy and read books. Then he went to cuddle with daddy and little sister on the couch.
