Bubbles, bubbles everywhere!
Splash! Splash! Emma's taking a bath!!
Don't let her fool you with those big pretty eyes...Don't worry there is a shampoo bottle blocking her privates :)
It has been forever since I last blogged. Soo much has happened! I am a working machine! I wish I could be home with my baby, but we are still going through some lay offs! We are hoping that in the next month or two things will start picking up and Ryan will be back at work so we can switch places, ha ha. Although, he is the best stay-at-home Daddy!!! I am supposed to be training for a half marathon that I am running with my sister and my Mom. Although, I have to admit I am struggling with working so much and still having the energy to get up early and run. But, after seeing Mell's blog about the run she did I am way more motivated. Wish she was here to run with me!! Some other new things are that I have applied for financial aid and hope to get started back in school! Life is crazy, but it is so good! Busy, happy and fulfilling each and every day!
Some new and exciting things about Emma is that she is a rolling machine. And, she ends up in the weirdest of places!!! (In our office Ryan has two big boxes that he still has yet to go through and some how she managed to push them apart and get stuck in between them) She is talking up a storm. She is like the text book baby and says "Goo Goo Ga Ga" all day long! She cut her first tooth the other day and has another one about ready to pop out! That has been miserable for her, but so fun for me to feel the tooth and she is extra cuddly! She LOVES bath time which is great because she used to scream through it. I now have to hold her down in the tub because she is so excited that she either dive bombs for toys or splashes water all over me. It is the best :) She wants to crawl so bad, but still has yet to get her chubby bum moving! I just love her!
I hope everyone is doing well! Sorry it has taken me so long! I guess life has to come before my blog, ha ha!

I think you are amazing to plan on doing a marathon on top of all the other things.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I'm glad you are doing it with your mom and others. I'm sure it will be rewarding.
Make sure you take a little time for dates in that busy schedule of yours. =)
GIRL!!! GO YOU for doing your first half! it is the best feeling in the world. for me there were really 3 things that kept me going.
ReplyDelete1: nike ipod. 20 bucks. get it. it will seriously make your runs SO Much better and you will really be able to see the progress you've made. look back in my old posts and you'll see everything i have to say about the little gadget.
2. a set strict schedule. i got a training sched online and stuck to it like my life depended on it. it was really hard with our crazy schedules, but i made it #3 priority after gosple and fam.
3. my hubs helped so much. if i wasn't in the mood he would kick my butt out with running shoes and an ipod. he was a huge help. he would even wake up early (from his graveyard shift messed up sleep sched) to watch brody so i could go. i just let him know how important it was to me and he helped me reach the goal.
just do it girl. i am soooo excited for you. make sure to post updates.
btw- your little girl needs to marry my little boy and then we can be awesome old grammies together :):)
