Couch Time

I don’t know what has happened the past few days, but I finally got my priorities straight and have been spending time snuggled up on the couch with this adorable baby. 

I’m not sure if she’s at the perfect size to snuggle without worrying I’m going to break her or if I’m just finally not feeling so pressed to do ALL THE THINGS all the time. Or maybe it’s the nights where she’s going six hours between feedings – which come and go. Or maybe it’s the realization that I’m really not ever going to get this time back and I’d better eat it up while I can. Or maybe – just maybe – all the work I’ve done leading up to this point on the house and the yard and everything else has allowed me to feel less overwhelmed and now I can actually relax.

Either way, we spent most of our day today on the couch and we’ve spent a few days last week this way too. And of course, by “most of the day,” you know I mean 3 hours because the rest of the time I was running ragged with working from home and chores and everything else. But oh boy those three hours on the couch were amazing.
