Tired :(

There's two tired girls in this home tonight... I have been dragging my butt all week, cannot seem to get caught up on rest and work is not giving me a break. AK cried through her whole bath and bed routine tonight, no stories, straight to bed by 730pm.

And of course I could be in bed myself but there's so much to do!!! My yoga studio reminded me of this today: "Always do your best, but don't overdo! When you overdo, you deplete your body and go against yourself, and it will take you longer to accomplish your goal". I think those are wise words for many of us as we head into the holiday season.

I left work a bit early today and picked up AK for a playdate. Angie and Milanna had us over for some crafts and playtime! It was really great to see everyone and all the girls (4 girls around the same age) had a great time. I never realized how noisy girls can be when they get together!!!

I got a chicken soup going in the crockpot, and started the first of my Christmas baking tonight. I have lots more to do (and need to find frozen tart shells... I'm having a hard time finding them and am not really feeling like making tart shells from scratch as I can't even find the little metal cups that the shells go in...) but at least I've got a bit of a start. Will do a bit more every night until it's all done. xo
