When Coffee Takes Over

I'm living in the Twilight Zone (no, not the vampire twilight zone). We had our little talk with Jr. again last night and this time she woke up at 6am for the first time and then 8:30 after that. I think my body is going into shock or something. What to do with this extra sleep?? This extra energy??

Today we're going to her 1 year check-up. She's only going to be a year on the 19th though. My sister said I have two shots to look forward to; hubby cringed when I told him. I'm really hoping the Dr. will tell us we can stop giving her formula and start giving her whole milk instead--- formula is so expensive! Other than that I don't have any questions for him. I like going to her appointments (besides the shots); I like seeing how she's grown and in what percentile she's in. I also like watching the other babies, especially the newborns. It gives me a good idea of what we looked like when Jr. was first born: nervous wrecks!

We've got less than a month until Easter and hubby and I are craving coffee like there's no tomorrow. I miss my paper but not in the same way. I don't like not knowing what's going on and I particularly miss my Saturday morning routine (because Saturday's paper is the best) but I can distract myself from really noticing. Coffee on the other hand... it's everywhere. Everyone drinks it, everyone sells it. I also never realized how much I use it for when I have a headache or feeling especially tired. I can't wait until Easter Sunday. Before going to my sister's for Passover/Easter we'll be stopping by the Second Cup near her house. I drool just thinking about it... For those of you also giving up something for Lent: keep on truckin'!
