The "Pre-Mike" Ashley

We had a laaaaazy weekend.  I was hoping for tons of snow and tons of hibernation.  So we succeeded on the last part I guess.  We watched dumb movies and slept and ate.  I ate a lot.

On Saturday, Mike fell asleep on me, and when he sleeps, I try reallllllly hard not to wake him since he doesn't get the same newborn-quality sleep that I get.  However, I wasn't expecting him to fall asleep, and we had just been talking about lunch or some type of next meal.  So then all of the sudden he's snoring, and all I can think is, ohmygosh I am so hungry if I don't eat now I'll die....and then my mind thought, the "pre-Mike" Ashley would be so annoyed at you.  Here you are, snuggled up with your husband, and all you can think of is your exit strategy to get to your next snack. Shame on you!!  You used to take naps by yourself and spend your lazy weekends by yourself!  This situation is a blessing, silly Ashley.

Soon after, he luckily (luckily?) had a terribly scary dream and he woke himself up.  Then I made nachos.

In other news, I am going to try to not buy coffee every morning.  I bought myself a little espresso machine to attempt to make my own americanos (decaf...for now...) at home.  I think its going to require a little bit of research before I hop right into the role of barista-of-the-year, so in the meantime, I'm looking for ways to make my home-brewed coffee more appealing without going the route of super sugary coffee creamers.  This morning, I poured the leftover milk from my cinnamon chex cereal into my coffee instead of drinking it black, and lets just say, I think I'm onto something...stay tuned.
