Pushing the pause button...

That seems to be the perpetual state I'm in lately. Someone has pushed the pause button on my life and the fast forward button on the baby. He is growing by leaps and bounds and I am terminally behind on filling in the milestones in his baby book. He is still not sleeping well at night and as an added bonus has decided that naps are for wimps, too! So, I'm still in that slow-motion, sluggish, zombie-fied state while he is crawling like the wind. I remember being productive around the house as a fond memory. I know, I know...they aren't babies very long and the housework can wait. Tell that to the 5 loads of laundry that are lounging in the wash room right now. Or, better yet...tell it to the big boy this morning that came to me with a pained look on his face and said, "Mom...I don't have any blue jeans to wear to school today! Am I going to have to wear my church clothes?". I had forgotten how one tiny little person can bring every day, normal activities to a grinding halt and one woman to her knees. Well...break time is over. Back to playing Peek-a-Boo. The prince has decided he can no longer entertain himself. :-)
