Where does the time GO!

Wow, it looks like I'm officially just a quarterly blogger. Time goes fast and there are so many other things I get side tracked on when I sit down at the computer. I appreciate those who blog everyday, I have yet to be able to accomplish that. It's also hard when you have this little guy looking at you while you're at the computer wasting precious play time.

What have I been doing? Finding a good balance between working 40 hours in an office and working endless hours at home. Some days are harder then others but I think after being back to work for just over a month I've found a balance. The key is keeping things organized and the dishes must always be washed and put away.I know dishes should be the least of my worries but it sends me over the edge if there are dirty plates in the sink. I must get this from my grandmother. It also helps to have a husband who is very helpful and will wake up at 2am to put the Binky back in the kids mouth so I can sleep just a little longer.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

A Table Set For Connie

Okay so February is almost over but I did it. I finally pulled together something fun for my cousin. I'm sure by now she already has everything for her table but here are my suggestions.

So Long January

Where did the month go? As an adult time has always gone faster then I remember as a child. Now with my own child the time is still going fast but it's a balance of what do I fill my day with hanging with baby and getting the basic chores done or post on the blog. I have some ideas for the blog other then baby things but we will see if I can get that going or not. Stay tuned if your still checking in.

Photos Photos Photos

Is there such a thing as too many photos of your newborn? Well, maybe but they grow at an amazing rate and change from day to day. Not to mention you have to capture them in all their cute outfits before they outgrown them.
The thing to keep on top of is organizing all these photos. I've successfully filled one album and started a second and it's only been six weeks.

Here is one of my favorite in his cute jumper that is now too small.

Watch Where You Stand

Pee-pee teepee from uncommon goods

Here's my funny mom story for the day. Baby and I had our first solo outing to the doctor today.
It was his one month baby well check where they do the basic measurements weight, height, head circumference. When you're a new baby you have to get down to your birthday suit to get an accurate weight recorded. Well, we all know that sometimes when little boys are exposed they tend to pee and not just a little trickle but a full fire house empty the tank kind of pee. That is exactly what happened today as he was being put up on the scale he releases all over my jacket, floor and the chair. The frustrating part was I had just barely taken off my jacket and placed it on the empty chair, which by the way was at least a foot and a half away from the scale. The positive side was he did not get his diaper bag or me. There have been some close encounters on the changing table so many that I think it's time to buy these little Pee-pee teepees.

New Years with a Newborn

This year we won't be getting all dressed up and dancing the night away. Instead we will be comfy in our PJ's enjoying a movie by the fire. We will defiantly be up into the wee hours of the night since my son likes to eat at least once every three to four hours. First resolution of the new year get at least 5 hours of sleep at one time!
