I should be asleep, but I am having trouble relaxing tonight. I left Travis with the girls tonight while I went out and did a few social things with friends, and even though I got home at 8:30 I'm still having trouble unwinding. I missed bedtime for the first time since Clara was born!!! I have rocked her, nursed her, and laid her in her crib every single night of her existence, except tonight. I am really pretty sad, even though I did still get to kiss her sleeping head when I went to bed (initially). I'm actually looking forward to hearing her squawk at 6AM tomorrow, and then snuggling with her in bed until another little girl tells me it's time to get up.
Anyway, this blog started when I got pregnant, and since that time there have only been a few months where I was not pregnant or nursing. Three babies, ZERO formula!! Yeah!! It's crazy the amount of dedication my body has put into these little creatures, and how much I love them. I'm proud of myself, too, because for as many things as I get wrong, I'm doing my very best in other ways, too.
So, tonight I go to bed as just another post-childbearing-aged woman. And, the mother of 3 very special little people. I'll try to focus on the latter, not the former.
