Feeling Burnt out

Okay guys, we all know the feeling of being burnt out, but lately it is 100% more apparent in every day life! I think the pandemic a a factor for me and it feels like the weight of world is dropping down on me every other day. I am not complaining by any means because I have it so good at home with my little princess, but yikes, sometimes...

We have bar stools that are at out island in the kitchen. I have to hide them in another room or lay them down on the rug in my foyer so she can't climb on them and move one to a counter that she wants to be on. One time I found her in the kitchen sink and my wedding rings in the disposal. Talk about a gratitude I had a hunch they were in there. My little is a climber and I can only proof so much of my home that doesn't sound or look insane. I love that she is clearly a free thinker and I problem solver but holy moly, it can get so exhausting trying to keep up with her!

Today we went on a hike in the lower Cowiche Canyon (which is my go-to hike) and she was great! I wear an amazing outdoor sport backpack that Pais chills in and was able to hike for over an hour. She was clearly tired by the time we got back to the car to go home. Did she take a nap when we got home, you ask? NOPE! Stayed up all afternoon. Usually her naps are 2 hours but not today. I think she heard daddy come home and wanted to be apart of the action. Can't really blame her because we are really cool but it definitely wore on me today.

Trying to cook dinner with a little tugging on your clothing or holding your leg is super sweet but so stressful! Love that she loves me but sometimes mommy needs a damn minute. I was going to do an ab workout on the bosu ball when she napped and was so disappointed when it didn't happen. During dinner my little decided to throw her plate over the side of her high chair (which happens at LEAST once a day). That's annoying. Like, do you cook them a different dinner at that point or just call it what it is? Sometimes I feel like I'm in hot water and know how to cool off.

She's now down for the night (I HOPE) and tomorrow is a new day. Bottom line, these events are all minor and time will pass and new things will happen, but today was weird and that's all I'm saying.
