Naptime

Liam is down for his second nap of the day and it's 10:54 AM. He usually takes one short one around 8 or 9 and then one long one right about now. It's always a dilemma for me to figure out what to do when he naps. Not because I'm lacking options! The conversation goes something like this:

"Ok...he's asleep. What should I do?"

Jessie: Clean up this living room...it's overwhelming to have it dirty.

Slacker J: Rest on the couch and watch 24.

Jessie: Read some scripture and pray.

Bored J: Blog! (Apparently this Jessie is winning right now)

Jessie: Finish your stinkin thank you cards.

Tired J: Take a nap...Liam did get up early.

Jessie: Exercise!

Out-of-shape-post-baby-body J: Play around on facebook

Jessie: Finish laundry...

...And the list goes on. I really hope and pray that other people relate and I'm not the only one that fights with myself like that. Once I actually get moving and start getting that stuff done I feel great, it's just getting myself to move that is the problem. *Sigh. Even now, I don't want to.

On a lighter note, a very dear friend and I went out, got Starbucks and hung out at Target for awhile last night, leaving the daddy's with the babies. :) So nice to get out every once in a while! Dev tried to convince me to get some slippers and hair dye but I'm boring and declined both. Really regretting the decision to not get the slippers. They were on clearance for $7 and I've had the same slippers for 5 years! I should have gotten them...but oh well. Maybe I'll go back today and return the stupid waterproof mascara (which was definitely NOT supposed to be waterproof!) and grab the slippers instead. :)
