Ramblings about everything and nothing

Feelin' like I need to post something new up on the bloggy blog.  Four months into being a mom, and 2 months into be a working mom, and gotta say, life is mostly good.

Although I still hold onto the dream of staying home more, I feel so incredibly lucky that I have the family that I have--so willing to help out and play with little Jude.  Dave's been working on this film for the last 3 weeks--and has 3 more to go. Any given day he will work 10 to 14 hours.  So in the meantime, we've enlisted my bro, my mom, and my dad as night time tenders until he or I get home from work.  And then Jude gets to hang out with these crazies during the day.  Ahhh, sets my heart at ease to know he is in good hands.  And makes me smile when I get daily updates:  texts telling me how he babbled the whole car ride home, pics of him being squeezed by Slade, or hearing stories of how he was serenaded by Ava in the car (sincerely singing a John Mayer song to him thinking her mom wasn't peaking at her in the rearview mirror..but of course she was--how could you not spy on something so cute and innocent??).

Besides all that gushy stuff, I have been SERIOUSLY wanting to update my wardrobe.  Doesn't help that I found this girl's blog.  Everyday when I'm at work, I think, "I'm just going to buy some stuff.  I'm going to go home, get online and go crazy."  But every night, when I get home from work, I look yet don't seem to have the balls to buy.  Maybe tonight's the night.  Nope.  I lied.

Life now is so completely different than it was a year ago.  Do you know what makes me sooo happy on the weekends?  The furnace on, my cozy sweat pants, my Kevin-Kline-Movie-A-Thon (because Dave is working with him and says he's even more charming in person) and a huge-ass bowl of ice cream.  So content and yet all the while missing the old days of going out with everyone for dinner and laughing so hard at everyone's silliness .  I think about my friends a lot, and have conversations with them in my head (Hi guys!).  I feel disconnected (Sorry guys!) but, oh, time spent chillin' at home with the boys is time well spent.

Anyway, this really isn't even everything that rambles in my head these days--but hard to fit into a blog worthy format...and midnight is fast approaching, which is my newly designated bedtime.  So nighty night guys!
