My priorities are....
1. Baby
2. Dog
3. Husband
4. Planning Travel
5. Teaching
6. Self
So recently I've been getting up at 7am to walk Brian while the baby sleeps. I wouldn't say it's a routine yet but I'm hoping that it will turn into one. Poor Brian has been suffering in the priority scheme and I decided to move him up a notch. After all he is our 1st child and deserves some attention. So for the last 3 days I have taken him on an hour early morning walk. Some days are harder than others considering that I haven't been getting much sleep lately. But after getting some crisp English air in my lungs and walking it out for an hour, I get home and feel great! And I find I get more done too. And I'm eating better.
With a lack of sleep comes a lack of caring what goes into my mouth. And when I'm tired I eat more often and less than healthy things. But after waking up and walking it out it seems like my head is clear and I can think quicker. It's nice. I hope it stays a habit.
Now if I can only shake that afternoon sleepy time... Oh, and Sophie is 4 months!
I am glad you found some you time!
