Routine Returns

Ahhh . . . the feel of a nice routine is upon me. I am so thankful for such precious time spent with family and friends, but there's just something sweet about our normal everyday routine around the house. Now that Savannah is feeling SO much better, she is back to sleeping longer at night, taking a great 2 hour nap during the day, and being a fun baby to play with after dinner time. I have really enjoyed being able to get the Christmas things packed away, the gifts put up, and being back into our ordinary schedule with our organized house. With the baby going to bed later at night, she's getting up a little later which has helped me with getting back into a workout routine as well. (After getting on the scale this morning and seeing a 5.5 pound gain, I should probably be making more time for a workout routine, but this will do for now.) Anyway, we have enjoyed a morning filled with laundry, kitchen playtime, and even a playdate with Savannah's buddy. Although it sometimes gets boring, there's just something comfortable about our everyday life around the Bachmann house.

We'll be toasting the New Year in tonight with our PJs on and some sparkling cider in hand. Oh how life has changed, but all for the better!

Happy New Year to all of our family and friends!
