Spa Day

I had a fabulous weekend. J sent me to a Spa for my birthday. I had a massage, sat in a steam room, and had my makeup done. I showed up for dinner feeling amazing. I had been worried that the massage would be disappointing {kind of like getting a manicure or pedicure- I usually come away thinking why pay money for that?} but it was incredible. I had knots worked out that I had long ago assumed permanent. Now I know why a masseuse goes to school to learn that stuff. And the heated towels and robes? Heaven. 


Yup. Best. Gift. Ever.


{Posting late today because I started sleep training Baby R last night. I finally feel comfortable doing so since he doesn't seem to be waking due to hunger or reflux pain, but hasn't been sleeping longer than 3 hours at a time for the last few weeks. On bad nights, he's up every hour. Nonetheless,  Baby crying + anxious mother= heartbreaking and exhausting night.}

  1. Oh, I just had my first ever massage last week. That hour vanished all too quickly. Worth the money, I totally agree!

  2. Spa day and sleep training should go hand in hand, really. :) So glad you had a wonderful birthday!

    Spa Day = instant gratification
    Sleep Training = delayed, but ever so worth it gratification. Hope he learns quickly!

  4. Our babies are similar ages and mine has regressed this last month. Going crazy but live in an apartment so I am worried about having him cry it out. Let us know how it goes. I need all the tips I can get in order to remember what 3+ consecutive hours of sleep feels like.

  5. Uh, how funny is it that our B-day's are 1 day apart and we both had a spa weekend as our present? Weird, parallel lives.

    Happy (late) Birthday!
