Speaking of adorable babies-mine is turning 2 next week! It makes me a little weepy thinking ab it. How does time fly by so fast? She's so much fun right now too. She's becoming such a big girl. She just learned how to shut her door; however, she can't open it, so she runs to get me to open her door so she can close it again. Obviously close it from the outside-she hasn't locked herself inside yet. Last night she was doing the door thing and also playing in her room. It was too quiet, so I went to check in on her and she had thrown her monogrammed pillow off her rocking chair unto the floor and was sitting in her chair reading her elmo book...in the dark (her room didn't have the light on but the hallway did...so she could see-this is how I read her her books before bed). Sweetest moment, until she told trey and me to go away-always with the attitude! Had a good drive to school today. Had the 90s Sirius station on and Regulators was on. I usually change the station if its rap but just kept it on bc it was halfway through. I look back and she was rocking out!! It was so cute. So I, of course, rocked out with her. THEN Joyride by Roxette came out and I started singing and so did she! I noticed the guy behind me laughing probably bc he thought I was a loser facing in my car by myself-who cares!
My New Years resolution was to cooks and exercise more often. I haven't been doing too great at it but I've had a revelation last week. We have no table manners at our house. We eat on the couch, Madison puts her plate on the coffee table and picks at her food and plays at the same time. I decided I needed to remedy this and last week cooked and the whole family ate at the table. Unfortunately, that only happened for two days. Then I cooked Sunday and we ate at the table Sunday and Monday and then I cooked again last night!! I'm on a roll!! I'm also doing better on the exercising front too! I took the steroids my dr. prescribed and my leg is sooo much better! I ran 4 times last week and plan on running tonight. I even committed to some friends to try and run the St. Jude half marathon. Hopefully I can keep my promise and do it. I'd love to be able to say I've done one and hopefully this will help me get back in shape and maybe ill think ab giving Madison a sibling next year!
Madison's bday party is April 7th and everything is going pretty well with the planning. All I have left is to order the cake. I have a ton of cute Sesame Street decor and its also going to be a crawfish boil!! Only bad thing, we still haven't gotten her anything! I was thinking ab getting her a fish bc Elmo's best friend is Dorothy, his pet goldfish. I did some research and saw all the maintenance Nd decided against it. So back to the drawing board...
We had an amazing Saturday. It was such a beautiful day and so we decided to go to the zoo (I made sure we got there right when it opened bc im sure a lot of ppl had the same idea. It was so much fun! Madison loved looking at the animals. She called the lions, tigers "big cats." The timberwolves were "big dogs" and the monkeys were just monkeys. We're definitely going to buy a membership and do that again!!
Ok-hopefully my next post will be an finally getting to meet Sidney!
