More sleep… more tired ?

I should be going to bed but I can’t seem to pull myself away from the computer tonight. Brodykins got 7-1/2 hours of sleep last night! WOOT! Hoping for the same to happen tonight is like doing a rain dance…. it may or may not happen.

Despite the extra Zzzzs, I found myself a bit zombified today. I’m not used to getting 6 hours of sleep and then another 4 on top of that! I don’t think my body knew what to do with my rested state!

In other non-topical news…

I have been joining social networking sites like you wouldn’t believe! I joined a mom bloggers network and then I have decided to be more active on Facebook. It’s strange how these social networking sites, message boards, blogs, etc. have become my social outlet. It’s kind of lonely being a stay-at-home mom sometimes so I feel really happy to have found these outlets! Plus, the cool moms I have met and the amazing blogs I have had the chance to read make it all worth while!

There’s a lot of “blah blah blah” going on in my brain tonight. For instance, come December miss Sophiekat will be moving to a big girl bed! Oh boy… not sure i’m ready for that one! I just *know* that her new found bed freedom will have her up and down frequently during the evening hours (at least, at first until she gets used to it). Still, it’s kind of exciting and I am currently browsing through bunkbeds and such.

Also, I am contemplating how I want to decorate the kids’ room. Obviously, it has to be something neutral for boys and girls… but I haven’t decided what. Everything seems very gender-specific. Uh well that and the fact that their walls are orange make it hard to decorate. Until we buy this place the walls must stay orange. So i’m thinking that a Sesame Street theme might work quite nicely. I’ll post pics later on this week and see what you guys think.

Owiebear had his birthday party yesterday and a good time was had by all! It was a Transformers birthday. Pretty much all of his presents (save for 2) were Transformers or Transformers-related. He was in 7th heaven! Husb and I got many hugs and thank yous from him when it was all over. All I can say is …AWWWWWW. I love to see my little guy happy!

Brodykins was one cute little fuzzy baby ducky after his bath tonight! He had adorable little fuzzy footie PJs on and husb combed his baby fuz. He came out smiling and looking so darn adorable!! Gah! Just thinking about it makes me want to kiss and snuggle the heck out of him right now!

Of course, bothering a sleeping baby is like poking at a bees’ nest. ;)

Although I am a grannie and therefore ‘got my T-shirt’ in most things baby – I love your blog for its originality amongst a host of similar blogs. Just dropped by to congratulate you on your witty writing style! Lovely blog.

The Sesame Street room sounds like a great idea!

I know how you feel about being lonely and a stay a home mom. I’m in the same boat as you. I’ve noticed on my weekly trips to the grocery store I’m a chatter box with just about anyone in the store. LOL!! It’s totally not like me at all. Guess I miss adult conversation. It’s great that you joined those social networks. Let me know how it goes. Maybe that’s what I need.

Sleep. What’s that again? Oh yeah……. something that people without kids do, right? LOL
Good luck with the baby’s room!

I wish you were closer, so we could do more things together!

Miss ya!

I’ve recently joined Facebook & other social networking sites. I love them (but still, it’s kinda pathetic – LOL). Glad you got more zzzz’s.

I know. I am the same way if I get a little too much sleep.

as for the social networking, I just started that too. It is so amazing how much there is out there. Really, it is like a whole other world.

BTW, tagging you for a quick meme. Hope you want to join in.

I’ve been having the same problem lately staying up to late. You know it’s bad when you hear your husband pull up in driveway and you quick turn off the computer so you don’t get “busted”.

Hopefully Sophie will take to the twin just like Katie did! She started playing the I can get out of bed game, but then I threated to shut her door and she didn’t want that so she would stay in bed. So whenever she starts goofing around, I always threaten to shut the door and she will say No shut door… I stay in bed. :)

Oh… I also forgot to tell you, I left you something on my blog! :)

Great content. I’ll keep coming back for similar posts which I cannot wait to read….
