Okay, I admit it. I'm tired.

Hmmm. So I said it and now you know. I. AM. TIRED.

But before you make any assumptions or judgments, know this...that is NOT a complaint! Just something I should probably clarify in effort to be truly honest with my blog followers. I am tired yes, but have never had a more rewarding reason for being this exhausted. Ahhh, typical Kelley...I had to put a disclaimer in there.

Okay, let's try this again because I think by now it's pretty obvious just HOW much I LOVE being a mom!!

I am tired.

I dream of a full night's sleep. Sometimes I imagine going to a resort, taking a long steamy shower and then crawling into a comfy bed, falling asleep to the Office with a full night of uninterrupted sleep ahead of me. Sounds incredible, right? And after 3 months of VERY little sleep (literally never any longer than 4 hours at a time) and I won't even include the last month of pregnancy monstrosity they called "preparation" for no sleep....you would think I would do whatever it took to make just one night like that happen.

But life is different now. I wouldn't enjoy it in the same way. Don't get me wrong...I would enjoy it. But why is it more comforting knowing my baby is just down the hall and if she needs me, I can be there for her? Sleep or no sleep, now...that will always be my preference. Life is funny.

Although I do well on little sleep...by now incorporating a career back in the mix, it's hard. I walk into work on fumes but do my very best so no one can tell.

But maybe I am making it harder on myself by always needing the house spotless, bottles made, laundry done and groceries stocked. Oh well...it just feels better that way.

Maybe I will get some sleep one of these days...
