Yesterday's BIG ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
* a solid 7 hour sleep with ZERO interruptions (including trips to the bathroom!)
* a two hour nap shortly after (who am I?)
* one episode of Beverly Hills Housewives, one episode of NYC Housewives, three episodes of The Mindy project........(go ahead and roll your eyes - the shows kept me horizontal, people!)
* countless bottles of water (I am forbidden from getting dehydrated and Kumari is like the water police!)
Other than this, I spent a lot of time laying on the couch and watching Nory play. She got a bit upset with my lack of activity (like when I said no to dancing during "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?"), but she got over it relatively quickly with the help of distraction. The bunch of balloons dropped off by friends were a big help. Nory whipped around the living room like you don't even know with the colourful balloons "FLYING!!!" behind her. That eventually led to a big crash (which anybody could have seen coming) but she got over that moment too. In the evening, the Macy's Day parade caught her attention with her favourite moments being the musical performances. Of course, total TODDLER-STYLE, she DID get angry at the parade more than once.
Where did that Hello Kitty float go? Why won't it come back? I said "PEEEAAAZE!!!!!!!" Haha. Eleanor the Fierce.

| Morning snuggles with Nory. A real treat considering I don't get to see her on weekday mornings when I'm working! |
This morning hasn't started out with as much Bed Rest Pizazz as yesterday. I was pretty restless and uncomfortable throughout the night (sorry Phil!) and I woke up with a nosebleed before 6. So - I've relocated to the couch where it's just me and the Christmas tree (which isn't such a horrible way to begin a Friday morning). Nory will likely sleep another hour and - fingers crossed - Phil is able to sleep even longer because that man of ours is SLEEP-DEPRIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Friday to everyone back home! Do you think we could convince the Americans to start calling it.........hmmm..........Yellow Friday? It just sounds so much kinder :)
