A Week in the Life

We have been a little crazy lately so there hasn't been a lot of time to blog. Let's see what have I missed in the last week.....

Well Monday was Don's birthday, we had a quiet night in (his choosing) We rented a movie and got sushi from one of his favorite places.
Tuesday through Thursday Ryan didn't sleep... usually he is a 12 hours at night then 2.5 hour nap sort of kid. But he got on a schedule where he didn't nap at all and was sleeping 9 hours a night. I was losing my mind, I fell behind in everything and on top of simply having no time where he wasn't right there with me, he was so cranky that he would just walk around the living room crying. Finally on Friday he fell asleep in the car at around noon. I didn't want to wake him up by taking him out (this is where it had fallen apart the last few days) so I unhooked the car seat and he napped sitting in his car seat for an hour and a half in the living room. I have learned since being a mom: flexibility is important, what you are doing might not always be the prettiest way to do something but if it works go with it.
Saturday we did the Race for the Cure in Raleigh. We had to get up at like 5:15am but it was worth it. They said about 22,000 people were there. Ryan was so worn out after the race (and after that we went house hunting with a friend of ours) that he took a super long nap and we hope that this is him getting back on schedule.
We also had a little get together last night for Don's birthday. It involved Steak/ Mashed Potatoes, Beer and Guitar Hero.... it was a guys birthday if ever there was one.

This is the life of my crazy family at the moment. Just wanted to give a quick update, now off to enjoy the rest of my weekend!
