He's sleeping. If anyone rings my doorbell or the cat meows loudly or the washing machine spins out of control and wakes him up, brace yourself because I WILL CUT A BITCH.
But for now, sweet sweet silence as he sleeps.
I birthed a baby.
Hence the long absence from the ol' bloggy blog.
I'll spare you the details of the birthing story (unless you want to know and then I'll tell you in gory detail because I LOVE talking about it) but the quick and dirty version is that it was NOT quick and it WAS quite dirty.
Tobin is 10 weeks old now. Seems like he's always been here, but I also can keenly remember my pre-baby life filled with long, boring days and long, lovely naps. No more, my friend.
It's been replaced with days that fly by because there isn't a second off. I mean, right now he's sleeping and I'm typing on my computer, but there are a million things that I should be doing - take a shower, laundry, vacuum, toilets, thank you notes, and on and on and on.
I complain a lot.
Toby is awesome. He's a mini human being and it's so crazy that he's alive and existing when at this time last year he wasn't, except in my feverish baby desiring mind. I think he's super smart. I mean, he's only 10 weeks and he's doing stuff that babies don't start doing till 11 or 12 weeks. Basically a genius. And don't tell me any different because remember I'm severely sleep deprived and I WILL CUT A BITCH.
Luis and I really need to go on a date night to remember that we like each other. It's time. We need to figure out what to do though - I'm leaning heavily towards hiring a baby sitter, checking in to a hotel room, getting naked, and taking a nap* for 4 hours. What a dream! Sounds like the perfect date to me. Now I just have to get Luis on board.
I should wrap this up before I over-overshare or disappoint my parents further by using more profanity.
Happy Tuesday! Bust out the winter gear - it's freezing out there!

*No secret code here. I literally intend to take a nap. In a bed all to myself, if that's an option.
