Normally I sleep in until Ben wakes up (around 7:30). Call me lazy if you will, but every time I tried to get up early to get work done I would accidentally wake him up. Today I tried something a little different, I got up super early (5am) and went to one of the morning exercise classes at the Y. Ben’s had a runny nose/possible cold for the past few days so I couldn’t go to the Y at my regular time and drop him off at Child Watch. Well I could, but, I didn’t want to be the person whose child infects the masses.

Well, the early morning step class worked out great today. Except for the fact that I don’t have any coordination that early in the morning (or ever). There may or may not have been a wipe out. I did manage to gracefully catch myself on the window sill though ;-)

So I may just try the whole early morning routine from now on. I got back around 6:30, grabbed a shower and was ready for the day before Ben even got up! I like being able to use his two nap times to get work done instead of wasting one by showering and getting ready for the day. Scheduling with a baby is a delicate balance ya know.
