What do you do when it's a "tired" day?

If you're a mom then you know exactly what I am talking about! Those days when your baby wakes up way earlier than you want them to. It usually happens when you were both up too late. You, your baby, or both of you wake up a little on the cranky side from not getting enough sleep and your eyes hurt! You just want to take a nap but your babe wants to do the opposite. So, what do you do to try to relax!?
I like to get in the shower with Elijah and sit there for a long time! I bring some toys in so he can play, but he also just loves the water coming down and the buttons on the side of the tub. It's relaxing because I don't have to run all over the house getting him out of stuff he shouldn't be playing in or with and he never fusses when we are in the shower.
It's great because by the time our shower is over he's ready to eat, and if I'm lucky we can both get a nap in!

I want to know what you do on a tired day! Write a blog about it and then link yourself below!

I decided to try on a pair of my pre-pregnancy jeans again today and lo and behold they almost fit! I can zip and button some pairs, but I think it will still be a couple weeks until I can actually wear them. Some pairs I might even be able to wear next week! When I first tried on a pair of jeans I could hardly get them over my hips. You don't realize how much your hips spread out during pregnancy and childbirth until you have tried to put on a pair of jeans that used to fit.
I still have a little weight that I want to lose, I think I have between 10 and 15lbs to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight which is pretty damn good. I lost the bulk of the weight in the first few weeks, now is the rest of it that's the hard part. I think I am going to start doing some kind of exercise. I will probably slather on the sunscreen and put on my sun hat and walk when it's not super hot out (and the UV index is less than 10). I already carry Elijah around all day and he's 15lbs, so I am definitely getting some exercise!
All I know that I am excited to wear my jeans again and I will be able to just in time for the cooler weather in October/November.

Yesterday was really tiring. Elijah didn't take a nap at all, and I don't count laying there with your eyes closed for 5 minutes a nap. I finally got him to sleep at around 9:30ish and Jason went in once to get him to go back to sleep. All was well until very early this morning, I don't know what time because I didn't look but it was still dark out. He woke up crying and it took a bit to get him back to sleep, then once he was asleep he was pretty fussy until 8 or 9ish, then I finally got up and got him and myself dressed so we could go to our meeting. When we got home this afternoon I was able to get him down for a nap and he's still sleeping, so hopefully yesterday was just an off day!
