{14months}

Where oh where has my little babe gone?

She's grown to big for her summer-time clothes.

She understands big words and (mostly) follows direction.
Favorite Foods: Apple.
Most enjoyed past-time: Walking.

But doing baby-version of sprinting is really fun as well. Oh and one of my many proud mommy moments: LittleMiss is now giving high-fives.

She occasionally understands her colors.

And her vocabulary is growing so quickly.

It's been an interesting month, learning new forms of self-expression, meeting new family members, learning new boundaries. Lets not forget the new personality quirks.
Walking around, pretending to talk on the phone.
Sharing, or at least acting like she is going to share...then taking the food away before mommy gets a real bite...
Cleaning.

It's been so amazing watching my little doll grow into a walking-talking-thinking toddler.

And I am so full of love for her.

Fridays Fiasco.

Today has been interesting.
Probably a LOT more than you would guess.

Let me start with this, now I may or may not have told y'all, but I am on birth control. I used to have really bad cramps, starting taking birth control it worsened my asthma so I quit. Well my cramps have been getting bad again.
Not to mention I realized around noon that I am supposed to start my period today. But with the birth control I won't start it for another two weeks.

Hormone OVERLOAD.

Now back to my day:
I was conscious(ever so slightly) before 730. This is quite the accomplishment seeing as the night before last I didn't GET into bed until 230am. No idea when I actually fell asleep. Then I took my sleeping pill once I got home and walked over to a neighbors to say happy birthday. Such a great older gentleman.
Well I think I finally fell asleep around...1030-11ish.

My Gammy text and then called me this morning. We talked about how my parents used to be, how long they were together and after they split. It was very interesting.

I made a quick breakfast(reheated some oatmeal) and went to my patio. Well my new phone fell out of my pocket, the screen cracked and I just lost it. It was the straw that broke the camels back. I couldn't quit crying.

But on a happy note I bought roses! And will do a better post when I get home!!!

Interesting Day

Well I can tell you my day did not end how I thought it would at the beginning!!

Here, let me give you a pretty fun play by play:
Um, I woke up a little late. Sleeping on a futon for more than...a night isn't very fun. Thank God it will be over soon.
I missed my first class, algebra, and worked on my part of my english paper. Then my computer crashed and did not save my paper. That was pretty fun. Not to mention the four cups of coffee I had didn't really help. (Yes, four cups of coffee, that was my breakfast.) I was a few minutes late to second class, English.
I have a very awesome insurance agent. He's very helpful and knowledgeable.
I was a few minutes early to third class and was able to go through all of my google reader. Love that thing. And even listened to a few songs on my "Reckless Kelly" Pandora station. Also love that. (I actually just shut my Animal Plant off on the tv to listen to some more music.)

Oh in Communication class we had a debate about whether or not the KKK should be able to adopt a stretch of highway. I was on the nay-sayers side, and won.  I was happy. It was also a LOT of fun!

I've also realized I am definitely a person who talks with their hands.

Then I had a doctors appointment! My new doc suggested I take some natural over the counter sleeping meds so that I don't get addicted and I am able to start sleeping. She also told me that if it doesn't help to give her a call and we'll figure something out... And I keep forgetting to take it... So that will NOT help me! oh goodness..

Oh! I also have plans for tomorrow night, I'm pretty excited. It's only taken forever for these plans to actually happen.

And to top it all off, my (possible) biological father contacted me again today. That tends to always make my day. But it was definitely different talking to him on the phone. He sounds so young! We're going to start some research on what we need to do for the DNA test. I'm really excited. :)

I'm really excited about whats to come.


I am also addicted to Instagram, the app for iphone!? it's great.


And before I forget! Tuesday I went to the 19th Washington Regional Gala. It was a LOT of fun! I did not realize I knew so many Foreigner songs! haha

Early to Class

Here I am again, early for Communications Class.

Lets see....

Nannying has now been dropped to just Tuesdays. Which is perfect! I am failing algebra and think I finally found a tutor!!! Yay! But LG's parents completely understand that I need to focus on school work and have agreed to let me just nanny on Tuesday and her Poppy will pick her up on Thursdays. LG is doing much better at minding me and letting me do some of my school work while I'm watching her. Next month is her birthday so I'll be getting her a new chapter book! She really enjoys reading and loves horses so the book will be a children's chapter book about horses. :)

My diet has been consisting of coffee and fruits.

And veggies. It's all I have time for anymore. Not to mention I hate to cook for just myself; if I had someone over, I would cook for a few hours and not worry about it. So hopefully I can talk a friend into coming over so I can do just that. The plan will probably be to cook tons so I don't have to cook and just grab n go on days I don't have time, or energy for that matter.

A few necessities I'll be needing to get ASAP are: a coffee maker, microwave, storage dishes, mop, broom/ dust pan and vacuum. Along with a Dutch Oven because I have been craving chocolate covered coffee beans since I did that last coffee post! Oh how I am addicted.


oh! Class is starting! Gotta go!
