Yesterday vs. a Normal Weekday

Yesterday: Shower at home! And shampoo! And shave my legs!
Normal: Shower at the gym or not at all (Sad and gross, but true!)

Yesterday: Sit in a chair at Barnes and Noble and read to myself!
Normal: Chase Chelsea around the kids' area of B&N, read to her

Yesterday: Nurse Savannah in public, twice!
Normal: Nurse at home and plan our outings around feedings

Yesterday: Shop for myself at the mall, leisurely
Normal: Go to the mall only to get Chelsea's feet measured at Stride Rite

Yesterday: Eat lunch at a restaurant!
Normal: Lunch out? HAHAHAHA.

Yesterday: See a movie... IN A THEATER!*
Normal: Watch half a DVD at home

Yesterday: Sit outside, in a park, mid-afternoon!
Normal: Nap time! Happy for a break, but stuck at home

Yesterday: Chat on the phone with a girlfriend!
Normal: Email girlfriends because phone calls are interrupted by crazy toddler

(Yesterday brought to you in part by wonderful husband and the support of generous grandparents. Thank you!)

*The movie was one of those "Movies for Moms" at our local theater and the show was Sex and the City. Savannah's first movie! Almost as scandalous as Chelsea's first movie: Brokeback Mountain. Nice parenting, huh?

Wow! Are you lucky or what?!?!? Heath is gone for 3 weeks & I'm feeling the opposite of you. And being Chelsea-free for a few days in the past...I think I've only had one weekend without Jordan TOTAL!!!! Holy crap!
