So, there is tired, and then there is "I've had a baby" tired. I walked in my living room this afternoon & saw leaves (like, from trees) I have no idea how I got leaves inside, and I didn't care. I stepped right over them to get to the kitchen. I'm just too tired to bend down & pick them up. I remember once upon a time when I used to vacuum my living room every single day when I came home from work. Those days are LONG gone.
I remember when Kirkland was born, I thought I was tired. But, I made sure to get a shower every morning. I washed, dried & fixed my hair & put on make up every single day. My bed was always made (before I went downstairs for breakfast) & I exercised on a regular basis.
When Charlie was born, I showered sometime before lunch. And, I managed to get on some make up.
Now? I try to get a shower. That's all. And, just sometime before Geoff gets home from football at 8:30 at night. It's a pretty picture isn't it? :) I rarely write anything else on my planner b/c I know I'm not going to get to it!
But, my 3 boys are a lot of fun & I am really enjoying the newborn phase again. My sweet baby loves to be held, and cries whenever I put him down. (Which is probably why I'm not having much luck getting a shower) Kirkland & Charlie LOVE him. Almost too much! The poor thing can't get a second of quiet time without one of them in his space trying to touch him.
I'll post a picture soon. But, right now, all 3 of them are asleep so I'm going to try to get a catnap in before Philip gets up!

I'm familiar with that kind of tired. Good to hear an update... I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't always get a shower! Praying you through football season... you can do it Jessica!! :)
Just wanted you to know that I pray for you and your family. I am exhausted with just one child. Can't imagine three let alone the crazy schedule you guys have especially with Geoff getting classes in and football. Wish we were there to help. Please tell the boys hello for us and that Uncle Chad and Aunt Betsy love them.
