it's a birthday week!


Just wanted to say Happy Birthday from us to two very special people in Lil Miss' world -- her Uncle Camron (whose birthday was Tuesday) and her Aunt Anjie (whose birthday is today). We love you both very very much!

yeah...................i'm back

June 1, 2009

So, yeah. Mommy's been sick all week. My body does this thing when I've been pushing it very hard and it's tired where it makes me sick so I'll just stop and get some rest. Well, that's not exactly possible -- I can't not go to work and a I definitely can't just stop taking care of Lil Miss, so you know, I don't get to stop. So instead of being sick for a day like usual (if I could just sleep for like a day), I've been sick for a week. Sorry for not keeping up.

June 2, 2009

I'm feeling much better now, thanks. Though it looks like I'm probably going to have to start carrying my glasses around again -- since I stare at computers all day at work, I've started getting headaches again. Hopefully my eyes haven't gotten any worse and the glasses will help instead of making the headaches even worse.

Lil Miss has been so good all week. I don't know if she recognized that Mommy was sick or if she didn't feel good herself, but she's been taking long naps and putting herself to bed early (except for tonight). She's still getting up at four or four thirty in the morning, but most of the week, she's been rather content to sit in her little chair and bounce as long as she thinks Mommy is paying attention to her. We went to work a few days and I've done some work here too. But mainly, I've taken care of Lil Miss and gone to sleep when she did at night after cleaning the kitchen and such (cause I just can't sleep during the day). She's been going to bed early all week except today. She had a major grumpy most of the afternoon. Didn't go to sleep until almost nine thirty and I hadn't eaten anything all day.

Jimmy hasn't been feeling great either. Not the stomach thing, just waking up feeling horrible and so calling in to work. Then he sleeps a little more and when he wakes up, he feels better. I think he's so stressed out just thinking about going into work (cause he hates it there sometimes) that he is seriously making himself sick to avoid it. Anjie did it when she was little. I think I did too.

June 5, 2009

I keep telling him he needs to find a new job. I'm hoping he'll listen to me this time. Miss Sherry called tonight to say they don't need him tomorrow and he says he's going job hunting. Let's hope so and keep our fingers crossed for him on it.

Yep -- she's started "superman"ing!

Sorry this is short but, even though I'm feeling much better, I'm still extremely exhausted, so I'm going to go clean the kitchen from dinner and then, know what? Sleep. Lots of it. Cause I'll be getting up in just about six hours.

blah

Sorry there haven't been many updates in the past few days. Mommy is sick and just trying to keep up with the baby. I'll write stuff soon I promise.

mocking birds to rover -- didn't need any of them today

May 25, 2009

TOLD you I'd get you pictures from yesterday. (c:

Today wasn't bad. She was a sleepy baby today -- slept most of the afternoon when we were at work and actually slept for awhile this morning as well. She was awake from about five am until eight thirty, but then slept from then until about ten thirty. She fell asleep on the bus down to work at noon and slept for a good part of the afternoon.

And when she was awake, she was perfectly happy chewing on her hand and slobbering all over her Moo Cow while sitting in her car seat and letting Mommy work.

May 26, 2009

Yes, she is hiding behind her Moo Cow in the above picture. She does that alot -- plays peek-a-boo without knowing what peek-a-boo is. She'll pull her burp cloth over her face or pull her bib up or duck behind her Moo Cow or her Pooh Bear blanket. It's very very cute. I haven't been able to manage to get a video of it yet, but believe me -- I'm trying!!

(Check out of the video on the right that's all her in the blue dress -- the second one down. The first sound she makes is one of her adorable coos. I love that sound!)

She's finally longer than her big brother!

Zeus is finally used to her I think. She's "petted" him a few times and will lay on the floor with him right beside her, and he seems fine with it. There are moments I think he might be a tiny bit jealous, simply because when Mommy's holding the baby, she can't be loving on the kitty, but we make sure he get plenty of loving when we're both home or when she's asleep. He hasn't really tried to bother her yet. So I think he's decided she can stay.

He does love to lay on her leaf when she's not using it though.

Oh! I forgot something yesterday! We had a REALLY big first -- we managed to get all the way through a bath (from getting undressed to bath to washing the hair to getting out to being dried off and then dressed again) without any tears! She even got water on her face and didn't cry!

I was really proud of her.

Two month check up is early tomorrow afternoon (though her shots aren't for a couple of weeks -- long story), so I'll let y'all know how it goes.

Contemplating on how difficult it is to be a baby.

it's been a long long day

May 22, 2009

A long day that started at 3:30 am.

I don't know if she's growing or if she had an upset tummy or what but Lil Miss was a grump most of the day. She woke up at 3:30 am (not uncommon), ate (again, not uncommon) but then refused to go back to sleep (VERY uncommon). She didn't fall back asleep until after we got home from work!

She didn't want to be put down in the late hours either -- from when she finished her bottle until about eight am, every time I tried to lay down with her or put her down to play or anything, she would scream. And her Daddy was still trying to sleep, as he had to work this morning, so we walked and bounced, bounced and walked for like four hours straight while Mommy was exhausted and wanted to cry. Luckily, she let me put her down long enough to get ready for work -- she was fussy but didn't scream. We got to work at ten am.

We left by eleven thirty. Because she started throwing a fit at eleven and I couldn't get her to stop. So I apologized to Charles (he said it was fine -- the most important stuff was done already anyway) and we came back home. She fussed on the bus ride, but didn't scream, thank goodness. As soon as we got home, the screaming started again. I had a baby screaming in my ear from the time we got home until the time I finally got her to go down for a nap (I think she finally just used up all her energy) about threeish I think. Between then and eight thirty, when she finally put herself down for the night, she would wake up to eat.

And be fussy for a good bit of the time she was awake.

She had a couple of short amounts of time where she was good for Mommy and Daddy -- that's where today's pictures come from. One of those about fifteen minutes. But all in all? It was a long freakin bad day.

Mommy is so exhausted she's too tired to sleep. Mommy's also a bit sad because her Momma's going to be in Florida in a few weeks (in Orlando) and it doesn't look like I'm going to get to see her.

I miss my Momma.

But now? Off to read and try to get some sleep. Daddy's home from seeing Wolverine now so I think it might be my bedtime.

Lil Miss in her bouncer -- she likes it. Mainly, I think, cause it has a mirror.

real quick -- there will be more later

May 6, 2009

I know, I know, I'm a slacker. But it's been a long view days -- Jimmy's been sick, I've been working and keeping the baby, Gramma and Laurie have been here and, also, the camera has been missing. So I don't have pictures from yesterday, but Laurie will be sending me some of the ones she took, so I'll post those when they get home and she sends them to me.

But Jimmy's better now, Mommy has slept and isn't stressed out and we're going to Theater of the Sea today to see dolphins and sea lions and all that good stuff. Should be fun. And I'll be working tonight and tomorrow morning.

So yeah, sorry for being a slacker, but my hands have been pretty full and we've been busy. So I'll post more later. Just wanted to say we're doing alright and haven't disappeared (c:
