Sooooo....my workout video came in....

So my workout video came in. In a way I'm motivated to lose a few pounds. But on the other hand I am the MOST comfortable in my skin than I have EVER been. I've had a baby and I know that my body is this way because of the miracle that is my baby. So I will work out...right? =) Yes I will. The battle rages on.

On another note, I will have to work a full week in March and I'm already dreading it. Just the thought of a 5 day work week makes me really sad. I'm going to try and focus on the fact that I have many days ahead with my darling baby and that it's just for that one week. I'm going to try not to think about this summer. I will have to work a few more 5 day weeks. So lots of pray on finding someone to watch Rylee a couple of days a week for this summer.

Here we go again!...sort-of

Well, Rylee's teeth are hurting her and she is fussy. I think she's continuing to teeth, but she wasn't this fussy with the bottom two. She has been very clingy and doesn't want me to leave the room. Some people say I hold her too much. I didn't believe them until now. I'm wondering if her teeth are just bothering her or if I've spoiled her. Just another thing to make me wonder if I'm doing things right. =) Here is a belated picture of the day we found Rylees teeth!

I'm also adding a picture David took one day when she was sleeping. She has this thing where when she's tired she pulls things over her head. It's too cute. She was sleeping but woke up when David took the picture.

How far we've come!

Today is a big day for me. Six years ago today my life turned around for the better! Someone once asked me where I thought I would be 5 years from that point in my life and I could never have hoped for so many blessings! I have a wonderful husband who I am learning to love new and differently every day ;) and two wonderful daughters. Rylee is growing and learning so much everyday. And Zeah is growing into such a sweet young lady! There is no way I could have imagined my lfe any better than it is today! Thank you Lord for sweet blessings and second chances!

And now we have TEETH!!!

I need to put a rock on my baby's head!! She is growing up way too fast! Yesterday David was holding her at the table and she was going to town chewing on his finger. And all of a sudden he let out a loud "OWW". She has teeth!!!!! Two teeth on the bottom are poking thru! She is such a big girl. I will post a picture later of her. We couldn't get a picture of the tooth because she keeps sticking her tongue out. She needs to stop growing up!

There's no one like me....

So David has decided that he doesn't want us to do daycare come February, which is great. But now I have to find someone to watch the little on a few days a week. I don't want to go full-time, but one of the ladies I work with takes spring break and the summer off. So I know that they will need me at work. David said that I'm needed at home too. It's hard I don't feel like I'm putting work first, but I know that I have a responsibility at work. I enjoy my job and I know that they want me to be there a little more because they think I'm a good employee. It's just a rock and a hard place. =)

Sleeping like a baby?!?

Let me start by saying I LOVE my baby girl and I am one of the lucky moms whose baby has slept thru the night waking up once to eat around 3-4am. However, for the past few weeks she has been "waking" up several times fussing and crying, but her eyes are closed. I try to put her pacifier back in and she still fusses a little bit. So I will pick her up and rock her for a few minutes and then lay her back down and she's back to sleep. Last night she did this at 10pm and then 12:30am. I'm not sure if I'm doing anything wrong. I don't let her cry herself to sleep, and don't plan on it because what we have works. I'm soaking it up because the constant reminder of how fast she is growing up is at the fore front of my mind.
I just wonder who came up with this saying and was there a note of sarcasim in the original statement that hasn't kept up with it thru the years
