Happy New Year 2013

Another year has come and gone. Baby Girl seems to be feeling a lot better this morning and getting back to her normal schedule, which is getting up a little before 7am. These past two weeks when she was sick we enjoyed sleeping in till 7:40 ish. But as I heard the cries this morning I knew it was baby girl getting us back to schedule. So up I went and found baby girl smiling at me in her crib. I love that morning smile. I got her her bottle which is no longer formula but 2% milk and we sat in the living room and listened to the news. After the bottle was her crackers which she of course, shared with Moses and then we turned the channel to watch the Pasadena Rose Parade. For once, she turned off all of that energy and sat in my lap and we watched the parade. She is just learning how to say and wave HI and GOODBYE so she thoroughly enjoyed waving back at all the people waving on the floats. It was a fun moment for me to share that with Baby Girl. Papa got up and found us girls sitting on the floor and he made his most delicious pancakes and we had a breakfast picnic on the floor. I love honey on my pancakes along with a little powdered sugar so I took this opportunity to introduce my daughter to honey. The doctor had given me the "go" on honey this past appointment and he said the honey might make her cough feel better. I am not sure about that but she sure seemed to enjoy the honeyed pancakes! We had fun playing around in the morning which culminated in a bath and more play time with Papa after e walked Moses. After cleaning the house and putting Baby Girl down for a nap I am taking the opportunity to update this blog. Its not very often I get time to myself yet I still feel the need to document life as I experience it.

Random Thoughts as the Weekend Closes

Today I got a friend request from my mother-in-law. Will she embrace the FaceBook? We wait and see. Technology is cool...I got to speak to my friend in Hong Kong today. The BlindSide is a really heartwarming and good movie. I didn't know what to expect. I saw Sandra in blond hair and I thought cheesy. Now I can't decide whether I want her or Meryl to win the Oscar. Cats are really nice creatures. I haven't really had much exposure to one before. I especially like the fact that you can hold them like babies. I wonder if I stole Mr. Chuckles if anyone would notice? hum. Bartenders blowing fire makes for an interesting drink at the bar. Plantains are better when they come with your meal and not as an appetizer. I met a man who wanted to see Leap Year. Krueger continues to take jobs that suck ass and take up her precious time. Sorry CougarTown screwed ur day up Krugs. We missed u at the movies today. Ever since I got Mo I have meet the most interesting people ...

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Time Is Flying

Man, back in September and October, I thought time was going by so slowly but now that we are in November and half way through it, it seems like time is flying once again. Maybe that has a little bit to do with me being a lady of leisure these days. My doctor put me on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy. I went into his office all stressed out over the situation at work in early November and he said "this Friday, November 4th, will be your last day." I was like "Excuse me?" Doc put me on disability because stress is bad for the gestational diabetes I already have and for the apparent high blood pressure reading I had that day and some of my tests indicated I was at risk for pre-eclampsia. My new job, is to go to the hospital for neonatal stress tests, twice a week, on Monday's and Thursday's with a weekly OBGYN appointment on Thursday's after my hospital appointment. Throw in some eye doctor appointments with an eye specialist (apparen...
