Tayvlee was blessed this past Sunday at 8 weeks old.
Deep thought:
Why is it that almost all of the disney princesses only have one parent? Is there story more meaningful coming from an abnormal family? Seriously,isn't this weird?
Little Mermaid-dad only
Belle-dad only
Jasmine-dad only
cinderella-step-mom only
snow white-step mom only
pocahontas-dad only
even Dumbo only had a mom
When will my 8 pound dumbells start feeling lite again. When does a mom find time to workout? Not that I really care about getting back into shape at this stage in the game, but since it is MY JOB, I kind of have to so I can keep up with the classes that I have to start teaching in 6 weeks.
Why does my 3-year old run around in panties all day long? She wears clothes outside of the house, but the second we come home, clothes become optional. She takes off her shoes like I ask her too, and then the clothes come off too. Even on really cold days she does this, then says she is cold.............but rather than putting on clothes, she bundles in a blanket. SO if you ever come to my house unannounced, expect to see some nakedness.
Do you know I hate cooking? I am pretty vocal about it. I think the cooking part is ok.....it's the before and after I hate. I hate thinking of things to make,putting together a list, buying the groceries........................and all the dishes afterwards.
My GOAL, try a new recipe every week. I have seriously, about 10 cookbooks (never been open) and I finally busted one out and have now tried 4 new recipes. Yay for my family. And it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I was dreading this new goal. Hopefully I can keep it up.
Goal #2: on Tues and Thurs when K is not in school, give her some learning and crafting time with mommy. My mom gave me a bunch of preshool books that I have picked out crafts, activities, etc. from and I'm trying to give her special time with mommy when baby is sleeping to do this. So far it is working out ok. Tay likes to wake up during it sometimes, but that's how life goes.
**************Just a side note: more like a 'note to self': DON'T LEAVE THE HOUSE without NURSING PADS. Not good.
This is such an embarrassing shot. I hate how I look sleeping, but Ryan took this picture this morning.
This is what our bed looks like lately by the morning. Tayvlee does sleep in a pack n'play next to our bed. But if I do a 6am or later feeding, I will lay her next to me and try to sleep for 1 more hour. Kennedee also sleeps in her own bedroom, but seems to always come into our room at about 3am because she is 'scared' and stays in there until morning.
This is Ryan's idea of watching Tayvlee......play a little guitar and then watch the tube. Tay actually seems interested in the TV.
Kennedee is finally back on a schedule. And this little girl needs structure in her life.
I am the bad mom who forgot the camera on her first day of preschool. But Ryan got a shot of her eating breakfast that morning. She just loves Miss Andrea, and so do I. She goes MWF for 3 hours. She is already behaving better at home. She responds so much better with a schedule.
We went bowling for the first time with K the week before. Take a good look at the scoreboard...............that's right, mama likes to win.hehehe.
