Thursday night the kids (all!) slept through the night for the first time in a week. Guess who didn't sleep? (Me, of course.)
Friday I felt completely drained; guess I had used up all my adrenaline on the week's worth of night shifts at the Wyse Hospital Ward.
Bright spots on Friday: sitting outside and eating my lunch in the warm autumn sun. The upbeat smile of a college student about to go on vacation. Listening to an interview with REM on NPR for the 25th anniversary re-release of Automatic for the People.
I'm spending the weekend hanging out with the kiddos, while Fritz heads into the office to get some work done. Spending all week on the day shift with the sick kids really took set him back twice over: he has to work on the weekend AND he caught their virus. Bummer.
I'm not sure it's so obvious in this photo, but Noah has been dressing in 90s grunge style. Long underwear under shorts. Often. (Stripes, not plaid.) I swear, I am not encouraging him to dress like this...I do wonder where's it's coming from...or just, you know, something he came up with by himself? Also, he does a backflip out of the swing about 30 seconds after this photo. Pretty sure I never used swings for such acrobatics. Sheesh. Kids these days.
