Can poop make you happy?

It sure can!!! And not in the way that you are thinking...

Rachel told me today after eating breakfast, "poopoo" and kept saying it. So, I asked her if she wanted to go to the potty and she said yes. So, I got her off of her seat and off she walked to the bathroom. Well, she did not go and got up to walk around and wouldn't you know it...she started to poop. We hurried to the potty, but we got there a second too late! In any case, that may have been a miss, but she did sit on the potty that time and ended up peeing!!!

No More Cookies for Me...


Today is the day...the diet begins! So, I did good today and I exercised for just over an hour at the gym. Hopefully tomorrow and all the days to follow will be just a good!!!


So, in the spirit of cookies...Here is a picture of my little sweetie and Cookie Monster. She has become the greatest fan of Elmo, so much that Jamie and I are going to take her to see Elmo Makes Music Live. She will love it!

These bon bons are soooo good!

As if!!! So, what does one do on the first day of stay at home mommy-dom? Clean the kitchen and take down the Christmas decorations! Sounds glamorous, doesn't it? Rachel and I did have a good day...I got her dressed this morning, but I stay in jammies all day as I cleaned up. Then at 7, I took a shower and put jammies back on. So, if you are counting...it is day one and I have let myself go! I will say this...just because I am done working does not mean that my mind has made that shift. At one point, I thought, oh I need to do this today, because I have to work tomorrow. Oops!

I am almost done!

Well, the time is growing near as I approach my last few days as a working out of the house mommy! (How is that for politically correct?!?) Tuesday will be my last day collecting a pay check and I am filled with so many bitter sweet emotions. On one hand, I can't wait to be home with Rachel and get some organization to our lives and if I am lucky some downtime! On the other hand, it will be strange to now be around adults during the day and making my own money. I have never really depended on anyone since I was a child, so it seems strange to have to depend on only Jamie's income. Oh and that is a downside too...the lose of an income.

Now on to some family pictures. After Christmas, while my brother and his family were in town, we had family pictures done. Take a look! The password is 8771.
