This life with a baby is going by too fast. She already feels like a big girl now. In one hand, I am excited that she is getting older and life is changing. But on the other, I miss that tiny baby phase. Oh, does it go by so fast. Slow down, girl! Here are 10 reasons why she is a big girl now: 1. Well it has been four full days since my Princess has breastfed. I am impressed to say the least. I thought I might cave in a couple times. Especially now that she says, "Please momma, … [Read more...]
Got Milk?
So 24 hours have passed since my Princess has breastfed. My husband laid down with her this afternoon for a nap. She easily fell asleep while watching Finding Nemo with him (as he softly stroked her head). Tonight was a different story though. We put on Auto B Good (a Christian version of Cars) and laid down together as a family. (We still share a family bed.) My princess cried for about 5 minutes for "mamas" (which is what she has called it for quite a while). The feeling I felt in my chest … [Read more...]
Good Bye Decade of my Twenties
I cannot believe that the end of a decade is coming upon us. Time keeps flying by me, and as I get older it is going faster. (In my mind I still feel so young. I did spend most of my twenties in this decade.) So here is a short (well at least I tried to keep it short) recap of the decade. I got this great idea from Rachel at Musings of a Future Pastor's Wife.2000 (I was 21 when this year began.)Husband and I publically gave our life to God in front of church. He was baptized as I stood beside … [Read more...]
My Bucket List
Well, I first learned of the term Bucket List when the movie came out. Then I stumbled across a blog - Lucy's Life - and she wrote her own Bucket List. This has inspired me to create my own Bucket List - a list of things I would like to accomplish before I die (in no particular order).Learn Spanish (I am one step closer. Last week, we got Rosetta Stone Level 1,2 and 3.)Quit eating so much sugar (notice I didn't say quit eating sugar entirely.)Learn how to sew so I can make crafts, pillows, duvet … [Read more...]
My Own Little Einstein
My Princess blew me away today. First she woke up early - 7:30 am. Yes, I have a toddler who loves to sleep in, which is fine by me. I like to stay up late and I am not a morning person. (My husband on the other hand is the complete opposite.) So we just quietly snuggled together under the warm down alternative blanket (scored at Kohls the day after Thanksgiving). All of a sudden my genius daughter started counting. 1,2,3,4,5 very well, and very clearly. She repeated herself a couple times and … [Read more...]
How Old Are You?
My Princess has been saying she was two years old for the last month. Grandpa taught her that one. It is so cute. Yesterday she officially turned two! I cannot believe it. How can two years go by so fast? I know, that is what all the parents say. All the years go by fast. I can feel it now.What fun we had for her birthday. A local Baptist church has a great ministry/business called Jungle Playland. After two hours of fun, (even I ran around the playland and had fun), we came home to our first … [Read more...]
