Friday, friday, friday!

Taylor slept really well in her toddler bed last night. She only fussed a couple of times, so I think the transition out of our bed is going well. When she is consistently sleeping the entire night without waking, we'll probably move her down the hall to the Nursery.

The sad part of the story is that I didn't sleep well. All this sweet baby-free, fuss-free time and I couldn't doze off. But at least I got some reading and brainstorming done. It's a habit in our family to come up with all sorts of business ideas - and I have a few new good ones, though I'm not sure how feasible they are yet. I'll have to do more research to see whether they might be worth the effort.

Last night we discovered traces of more mice in the basement (ewww!). It/they have been snacking on cereal bars on our food storage shelves. Mark set up several traps on the shelf and I think he may have caught one, but I'm too squeamish to look closer. Needless to say, once that mousey is disposed of I have a lot of cleaning up to do on the shelf. Soo not looking forward to that.

Week three of our new routine is going well, though Mark has kind of given up on exercising in the morning. I think if we tighten up our evening routine we could get to bed early enough to make morning workouts possible. We've been good about cooking at home every night, even if it's a quick-and-easy Trader Joe's option. I'm in need of a good slow cooker meal for Sat night after church. We usually eat out then, but I think it's more of a hassle than anything because of long wait times and the challenge of finding something Taylor will eat. I'll scour some cookbooks and recipe sites today.

We have 67 NCIS episodes recorded on our DVR. Anyone want to come to our place for an NCIS marathon? We'll provide the popcorn.
