Bored!!

Monday morning the kids and I got up with the car all packed up and hit the road. I meet mom and dad in Clarksville, TN to give them the kids for a couple of weeks. We got there around noon time and met them at Cracker Barrel for lunch. It was so cute, Chase sat in the middle of three chairs at the table and made sure that Nana sat on one side and Papa sat on the other of him. And Skylar sat in Papa lap and wouldn't let him finish eating, poor papa.
After lunch we went over to the fabric outlet and I found the most perfect fabric for a baby sling for the newest edition to the Rakestraw family!! It's chocolate and pink stripes, absolutely perfect, I'm hoping to be able to do the nursery in the pink, chocolate and cream stripes and circles, kinda retro but I love it.

My kids don't even miss me, I call every day and their having a blast. Nana and Papa let them do whatever they want to and I get to sit in the house all quite and alone. It's kind of depressing. We're leaving for Chicago Friday morning and returning Sunday for an Anniversary celebration thing for Travis' work, and we've been married for 12 years on Sunday. 12 years!! with the same man. I'm only 32, lordy!
Well, I'm gonna go to bed now. I have nothing to do, no baths, no pj's NOTHING. You would think I would be enjoying all of this seeing as how I haven't been with out my kids for longer than a couple days. But after 10 years of having them here, it's hard not having them here. And with me not working anymore, I have a hard time even getting out of bed, I mean really..why?

Well, next year you will be glad to let the older two go to nana's for awhile because you will never be bored with three!! This would be the perfect time for you to party it up...but since you're knocked up, I suggest that you do just what you are doing. Sleep your little heart out. I disagree with the moron that said you can have too much sleep. :) Love you!
