so i'll have to stop on the way home from work one night this week
because DH has a hankerin for taco pie
which i have never made
but looks easy
you have to use pie crust or crescent rolls
as the crust
and i have neither,
dd was getting really bored & antsy in albertson's!
so then we went home
i made lunch while dh changed & fed dd
then we had corn on the cob on the grill & spedini for lunch while dd slept
yummy lunch at 4 pm!
so now i have to go get dd out of bed
she was worn out from being out so long
we are normally homebodies
but needed to get errands done today
so, they are all done
we may go to the park this evening
we'll see...
we didn't make it to the state fair this year
but i guess that's ok
because we didn't spend money on fair food!
but i didn't get my once a year elephant ear fix, either
so maybe we should go on the last day tomorrow
so i can have my elephant ear
and dh can have his pronto pup
and someday we need to try a tater pig!
which cracks me up
it's a sausage in a potato or something i think
it just makes me laugh
i thought i would have more time
before dd really became a toddler
she's only 16 1/2 months
but she already has a mind of her own!
I have one of those songs from the commercials "The Truth" in my head. You know the ones about the dangers of smoking.
she cries when she doesn't get her way
and already throws little temper tantrums
i'm not ready for that yet!
at least a few more months
The one that bugs me is about low birth weight babies.
of her being a baby
but no,
she is already hitting a mild form of her terrible twos
Having a low birth weight baby, and NOT smoking...it makes me feel bad. You know??
so it'll be potty training time within a few months!
time is going so fast
it's truly amazing
she'll be going through all new stages
My brother is at his class reunion. My 10 year was last year.
before we know it
i don't know how people handle 2 under 2!!
Brand and I didn't get to go since I was in the hospital having Pea!
i love her more than anything
Good enough reason though, right?
but it's exhausting sometimes!
I'm so thankful for my Pea.
I waited many years for her!
so who knows how it will be when we have another kid...
i guess we'll see!
maybe we'll see next summer...
it took us a long time to get her
I thought we'd never have another child.
but she was worth it!
and if another baby is meant to come into our lives,
It's been a really amazing year.
then so be it
ok, i have to get her up
What a life changer!
or she'll never go to bed tonight
We were set in our ways, but Miss Pea changed it all!
yes, a definite life change
I get to go let the puppy Abbie out tonight.
ok, see ya later alligator
after while crocodile
Sorry, I'm just rambling!!
We have to go to the dreaded wal mart. UGGGGHHHH
I'm not fond of that store!
I am quite fond of the Micralite though! ;)
The biggest thing about waiting for another child...
Don't let it drag you down.
We tried for 7 years and after many tears...and loathing of myself, others who were pregnant...I gave up.
For the first time in my life, I was okay with not having another child.
2 months after I completely gave up...
I was pregnant. It's crazy!
My daughter is a wreck!
She didn't get in a good nap today.
And now the slightest thing is causing her to MELT down!
Mommy is hanging on to her sanity by only the thinnest of threads . . .
The portability and durability are amazing - those two seldom travel together.
Daddy is finally home.
He is now in charge of the munchkin.
Until she's ready for sleep.
Thay are playing happily together.
My little munchkin is behaving like a sweet angel.
So her dad doesn't believe me when I say she was godzilla this afternoon/evening.
Big sigh . . . at least she's happy now!
She needs to be asleep soon.
I don't know how she is managing to stay awake.
There, I've done it!
I think I've deleted all my duplicate comments.
Now I feel like I'm playing fair.
Moving right along.
There are happy squawks coming from the bedroom.
My child is clearly happy to have her dad home.
I am happy to not have her hanging off my leg.
There are a bunch of other things I should be doing now.
Things that didn't get done earlier.
Because of my godzilla baby.
But I am finding this strangely therapeutic.
Its a way to vent.
And I am not venting to the object(s) of my irritation.
So there are no feelings get hurt.
This works for me!
I am dying of thirst.
I need a large glass of ice water.
I will return shortly.
Ah, there is no greater thirst quencher than a glass of water.
I have not made dinner for hubby.
I must look sufficiently frazzled.
Because he has not bugged me about this lapse.
My husband and my daughter are giving me space.
They know when mama's on the edge.
I wish hubby didn't work weekends.
It would make things a lot easier.
I would get a break for one thing!
When I as growing up, my mom had a nanny and a maid!
Both the nanny and the maid lived on the property.
Life was rather comfortable for her, wouldn't ya say!
This was not in the States.
This was in Africa, where having lots of help is quite the norm.
It is very affordable there.
Because the domestic workers are paid a pittance.
That's how it is in a third world country.
There is a thin level of obscenely wealthy people at the top of the totem pole.
There is a large middle class who, although not super wealthy, can still easily afford domestic help.
And then there are the vast majority of the population.
They are dirt poor.
They live from hand to mouth.
They live from one day to the next.
They don't plan for the future.
They are criticized for not thinking ahead, for not planning for their futures.
But they can't afford to think about the future.
They are too busy trying to get through today.
It sounds extreme.
It may sound overly dramatic.
But I assure you, every word is true.
I know because I spent my childhood there.
If you've never lived in a third world country, or at least spent a little time there.
You cannot appreciate the excesses of the life we live here in the US.
The average african would shake his head in disbelief.
He wouldn't judge us, because they really don't do that.
He would just completely fail to comprehend this way of living.
Where people have more than one pair of shoes.
Where people eat three times a day (or more!).
Where people choose to drive distances that he, the average african man, walks without even thinking about it.
It is an entirely different world.
It is also a very beautiful world.
There is an innocence there that our sophistication has robbed us of.
I hope to go back there soon.
Oh well, time to get my baby girl off to bed!
Good Night and pleasant dreams.
It folds very flat and with a trunk full of the kid's stuff that would certainly help.
Did I mention our Mommies group is having a bake sale tomorrow??
I've got one batch of cookies down...3 to go, 1 cake in the oven, 2 more to go and 5 batches of brownies to make.
Plus I have to wrap presents.
I really need to get organized!
I've known about this for HOW LONG???
I like adding my name in the kitty more for this Micralite though...
Okay...be back...must check cupcakes...oh yes, I'm making them too!
Have you ever had heel spurs?
Man, talk about pain!
Of course, it doesn't help when I wear shoes that are cute, but not so cute for heel spurs!
It's tough being a girl!
Second batch of cupcakes in the oven!
I'm so tired, and I've got so much to do yet!
Maybe I can beg my SIL to come over and wrap gifts for me tomorrow.
She does an awesome job!
She usually does all of my Christmas wrapping. Bless her heart!
I love baking. Cooking too. I would love to host my own show on Food Network
I'd like to meet Jamie Deen...he's bloody h-h-hot.
i've fallen behind again!
the dogs are eating
and dh is watching munchkin
munchkin loves to dance
I've got cakes to make...cookies to bake...
i'm going to go eat some leftover spaghetti
and have a glass of wine
I think it's really weird that Baked and Naked don't rhyme.
so nighty night, once again
I think it's funny to say baked like how you would say naked. LOL
i did make sure i wasn't disqualified for posting some sme comments!
I've got to check some cookies...
and erika emailed me back & said no...
thanks erika!
i really appreciate it since i didn't mean to break the rules!
i am a rule follower, not a rule breaker!
unlike my hubbie who is a rule breaker
maybe it's true that we like bad boys?
but he's not a bad boy...
