Doin' it Old Skool!


Hangin' in Bed, originally uploaded by Sacha Digi.

Today we did something M. and I haven't done since before Finn was born.

We hung out in bed all morning.

Any of the recently pregant with their first peeps out there, do this one thing, if you don't do anything else before that sweet baby arrives. Spend a morning in bed. Just lie there. Stretch yourself all the way across its expanse. Nap a little then wake up again. Read the paper. Listen to the radio, or the quiet. Read a book. I mean REALLY enjoy it. Then get up and instead of thinking of all the things you didn't do while lying in bed, smile.

So it was the three of us. Mommy, mama and Finn. And we just hung out. We played. Finn nursed. We napped. We laughed. We did nothing. It was glorious.

Almost nine months after our world turned upside down (in the best way possible), we're getting some semblence of it back. It's not the same because it never will be again, but it's good.

Staying in bed can be sooo nice. We do that sometimes--play and cuddle with Riley in bed for a little while. There's something nice about being a family and being able to do that.
