Friday.

It's finally Friday.
All day yesterday I kept thinking it was Friday....when I realized it wasn't, I wanted to take a giant blanket, five pillows and netflix to my closet to escape for a few days.  Could I possibly survive another weekday?
And I did.  And it was a wonderful Friday.  We had friends over, Joy school, nap time, a trip to the library (which is always followed by a chick-fil-a "cream cone", and then on the way home we stopped at the mail box.  And WHAT was in the mail box you ask?  Two glorious packages I have been waiting for and am SO excited about.  A new dress Jordan got me for our anniversary and bright red lipstick.  Lip sense to be exact!  Have you heard of it.?  I'm obsessed.  We then had family pizza night minus Jordan (cause he was on call at the hospital "fixing people" (as I tell Myra)) and then I was supposed to go to the temple but I LOST my recommend and couldn't find it last minute even though I had already put on my bright red lipstick and pretty new dress, cleaned the house for the babysitter, nursed max down and had myra in her jammies with hair brushed and temple bag on my shoulder.
DARN IT!
So instead of the temple Imma gonna have me a hot date at home with my hubby.  Him in his hot scrubs and me in my new linen dress and bright red lipstick! :)

"Before the Parade Passes By"

"Hailey, I gotta go.  Can you take the baby?"

I heard that statement far too many times last week as my exhausted body could barely open its eyes. My "morning arms"  (when you can't grip a dang thing) would grab Myra and lay with her in my bed for a few minutes while I mustered up every once of energy I possibly could to get up and take the day on.  

It was a test week... (the worst weeks.)  

Jordan was gone bright and early, home late and then studying in his office till midnight every night and every moment I was with him, it was helping him study or hearing him talk about how stressed he was about said test. 

Med school has been fairly easy for him, up until that test.  And it made for an exhausting week.  

I did all I could to ensure my sanity and got my self out of the house a lot.  We took on Disney a few times and hung out with friends.  And finally FRIDAY came.  

Jordan finished pretty quickly that morning and had no homework the rest of the weekend so he hurried home and we ALL together went to Disney.  It was killing him to study while I was there with  Myra earlier in the week so he was ALL OVER getting some time in there.  

We watched the parade.  It was magical and Myra LOVED it... but it was SO blasted HOT!!! SO darn hot that I was in the worst mood ever.  I had been looking forward to this day ALL week and couldn't wait to have a good time with Jordan.  And of course i let me mood take over and shove MY fun out of the way.  Sometimes it is too hot to be happy.  (Unless you're Jordan, who can pretty much smile through anything.  I seriously don't know how he is so upbeat and positive all the time.  He should become a therapist too because he is on the phone with at least two different people a day talking them through their emotions and guiding them through lives troubles. How did I convince him to marry me?  ME?  He is seriously the most amazing person!)

ANYWAYS.. we then headed over to Pirates, which has THE best air conditioner in the park.  I quickly apologized for my grumpiness and we laughed about how much of a bum I was.  And the rest of the night went swimmingly well!

I am glad that I got those grumps out quickly because I am trying SO hard lately to be happier and enjoy life "Before the Parade Passes By".  All those years of musical theatre songs are teaching me lessons even still!!! :)

 ^ Our hollow ice cream... So disappointing :( ^

It's Friday!!!

I am so excited it is the weekend.

That means more time Jord and me getting to sleep in tomorrow!
Saturdays are wonderful because he gets up with Myra and lets me sleep in while he plays with her...Which after lots of early mornings, lots of Myra pointing at books and begging to read the same ones over and over again ALL DAY LONG and having a toddler attached to my hip, that extra few hours does wonders for my body and mind.  He is the best.

I can't wait to cuddle up in bed tonight with him, eat popcorn and binge watch a TV series late into the night.

I remember when we were dating doing that. But we had to be on a couch and eventually I had to be walked down to my car and drive away from him for the rest of the night.  That was the worst!  Now we can do whatever we want, including making out laying down with out feeling guilty about it. Boo yeah!

Myra and I went and hung out on the porch for awhile before her second nap today.  She loves it outside.  It gives us both a good recharge.  So we colored away our feelings with sidewalk chalk... and then she started eating it, so we stopped and went inside for a morning bath to wash it all off.

That face of hers, it sure makes all the troubles welling up inside of me disappear.

I hope you all have a wonderful friday. :)
