The "Early Bird" was literally early!

My normal Friday routine is to get up at 4:30 am, get ready and head off Gold's Gym. Actually, I normally do this every weekday except on Monday's - that's my off day. This morning, I woke up at 4:30 - but didn't feel like going to the gym. Instead, I remained all cozy and warm under the covers - and way clear on the other side of our king size bed (Cy is still battling bronchitis). At 5 am the baby monitor went off and I can hear Evan (Early bird) in his room babbling on and on. I thought, ummm...I'll just stay in bed, because he normally falls back asleep. Not so in this case. At 5:30 am - due to Evan still chatting away and I couldn't go back to sleep - I got out of bed and checked on Evan. The boy was just talking up a storm.

Eventually, I wind up making breakfast - Hawaiian pancakes. Cy crawled out of bed, made his presence to the breakfast table, ate, then went back to bed. Now, I know what you all are thinking - "WHAT THE HECK?". He normally helps me out with Evan and all the running around stuff that I do in the morning....but he's sick. So, he has a very, very, very good excuse for going back to bed. I just didn't want his pancakes to get cold. My mom ALWAYS made sure that we were sitting at the table when she made pancakes. "They don't taste good cold", is what she would say. :)

Even though I woke up early, I managed to get out of the house way behind schedule - dropped Evan off at Lynn's house - and get to work exactly at 8:30 am. My goal is to get to work either early or ON TIME this year. I tend to run on "Hawaiian time" when it comes to work.

It's FRIDAY!! Yiipeee!! Have a great weekend.
