I'm awake?
Yes, you read correctly. The bear is sleeping peacefully in her crib and Bobby is equally in dreamland and here I am just basically awake for the second night in a row... for no apparent reason. Or so I thought... As I lay awake praying for people, mentally picking out outfits from our overstuffed closet (which I need to desperately clean out), planning my day, our meals, my latest excercise kick which I'll promptly start at 6am tomorrow (yeah right) it suddenly hit me: Starbucks ice cream!!
For the last two nights I've had Bobby scoop me two beautiful scoops of java chip ice cream with a dash splash of milk over the top and for the last two nights I can't sleep. Is anyone else completely surprised by how completely surprised I am?? I've consumed alot(and I mean ALOT) of ice cream in my 26 years, most of it while pregnant (sorry Celia) and it's never interfered with sleep. So bummer for me, but tomorrow I'll be faced with the gummy smile of my baby girl and she won't understand why Mama has such a weird dazed out expression. And as all Mamas do, I'll give a toothy smile back at her and keep my fingers crossed that she'll want to be rocked to sleep for one of her naps.
Oh yes and for anyone who's interested I have a pint of frozen caffeine with your name on it. It's amazing with a dash splash of milk and a sprinkle of insomnia.
Love, Jenna
