Today…

…everyone slept until 9am.  Now if I could just explain why I still feel exhausted…

…Ava was awake for about an hour, then went back to sleep until 2pm…but not before spitting up all over me.  I think maybe she’s not feeling the greatest.

…I got all of the ingredients for chili thrown into the crockpot before noon, only to realize just before 3 that I never plugged it in.  Huh.

…I ate 3 cookies for lunch.  I gave my kids veggies.

…Tim mentioned the possibility of getting our kids a Wii for Christmas (I know, I know…we are so far behind with anything technological).  I don’t love video games, but I’m trying to be objective.  It’s hard.  But it would make shopping easier.

…I folded 3 loads of laundry.  I actually kind of like folding laundry.  Putting it away is a different story, though.

…I have a slight headache.  Nothing debilitating, just enough to sap motivation.  I guess that’s okay, though.  My baby girl is wanting to be held, anyway.

…I am living in a bit of denial that Christmas is less than 3 weeks away.

…Ava is 3 months old today.  And I have been so blessed by her in those 3 months.

…and, finally, a verse – because it showed up twice in my devotional time this morning

But as for me, I will always have hope; I will praise You more and more.  My mouth will tell of Your righteousness, of Your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure. —Psalm 71:14-15
