Thinking...

I am just sitting here waiting for Eric to get out of class thinking about everything that I need to get done. Liam is totally fighting sleep and that is no good! I will try giving him a bath and see where that leads. I am not sure if he is about to start teething or not because he for one is seriously drooling and two really is chomping hard on his little fingers and leaving a gum impression.

Tomorrow is Ga Tech's first football game of the season and as most of you know Brody has his own game day jersey which he will definitely be wearing, but Liam has a Ga Tech outfit complete with booties that he will be wearing!! Go Yellow Jackets!

Sometimes I wish that time would pass quicker but not for Liam. I don't want him to grow any faster, but waiting for certain things, like getting a new car and finally moving is just getting annoying! Hopefully I will have my new car soon, I pray, if things work out like I am hoping they will!

So Eric is back in school and I couldn't be prouder. He will be finished in a couple of semesters and that is one of the things that I wish would be here so he can get a great job and I can finally accomplish my dream of being a stay at home mom and he will have an awesome job that he loves. Ahhhh, we have so much to look forward to and it is very difficult to be patient!

Yep he is still sitting here fighting sleep! Alright I hope you all have a wonderful night and I will blog again real soon!

Whoa it's been awhile...

The first week of work was great minus the first day when I had my melt down. My new work family is amazing and I am loving every minute of being there! Little man is doing great! He is almost 3 months now...cannot believe it...and he focuses more when he looks at you and when he is making his talking sounds his expressions are so serious almost as if he is really having a conversation! I can't believe that it is about to be September; where did the summer go? Although I will not miss the heat and humidity I am not really looking forward to the dead cold of winter! So, by all means, fall please take your time!!! Well I have a lot to do today so I better get started!

I Survived

Well I survived my first day back at work, but not before sobbing my eyes out all morning and on the way to work! Once I got there and got back in the swing of things I was fine! I just want to say thank you to my loving husband for being there for me yesterday! He was so supportive! I really didn't think it would be that hard, mainly because I have left him before to run errands. I guess that just know that our time together is somehow shortened I got really emotional!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday; I just wanted to update you on how the first day back went...probably the typical first time mommy routine: Cry eyes out and pray the day goes fast! Although the day dragged on and on, I survived and that is all that matters!!

Good Morning!!

Good morning all! It feels wonderful outside! I am so glad this humidity is finally starting to go away! I only have a few more day alone with my little man...I am starting to get sad! Still so much to do so I will be busy yet again today! I also need to get back into my workout routine to get rid of this pregnancy weight. Man, it has been difficult to get rid of it.

Here is something I have been working on...

I have started a photo wall! I am really excited about this and I plan on it taking over my living room wall! Although it looks great now (small but great) I plan on changing it all around once I get my canvas of Liam, which will go smack in the middle because it is just awesome!

This is the canvas I am getting...

This amazing photo was taken by Brittani, Liam's godmother, whose father is a firefighter! We absolutely adore this photo and will cherish it forever!

And The Countdown Begins...

So I am freaking out because I only have one week left before I go back to work...I am totally dreading it! I don't want to be without my little man for one second, but life must continue! So we had a yard sale yesterday...it didn't go as well as we hoped. We had a steady flow of customers but they didn't really want alot. Besides getting completely fried from the sun, we had a great time!

With only a week left I am starting to freak out since my to-do list is still not complete. There is just not enough time in the day! So my plan for today is to get some errands run, clean the kitchen top to bottom, clean the bathroom top to bottom, wash Brody, finish Liam's laundry, order a cake for next weekend, and pick up Liam's Christening outfit. That's right, Liam is getting baptized next weekend! We are very excited! So there is a lot to get accomplished before the big day!

I better get a start on my list for the day! I hope everyone has a great Sunday and I will blog again soon!

Let's Try This Again

I still haven't finished my forever long to-do list, but I did get a lot of it accomplished. The pictures from Anna Ruby Falls are being uploaded and I will post some of the cute ones a little later, as well as some of the projects I have been doing. We are having chicken stuffed bell peppers tonight and I am excited to try them. We are finally having our yard sale next weekend so I can get all of this stuff out of my dining room...and my mom's house. Liam is doing great; he is still sleeping through the night and he loves to smile! He will be turning two months very soon and I cannot believe how fast the time is going by. Well I will be posting later today hopefully with most of my list done this time, but definitely with some pictures of our adventures!!

Can't Stop Thinking

So its almost midnight and I am laying in bed and I can't seem to turn my brain off. First let me apologize for taking so long to blog again,
It's been kind of crazy around here. I have so much to post, including Liam's art project, my new haircut, our trip to Anna Ruby Falls, and tons more. But let me clue you in to what's going on in my head now. Have any of you ever just been laying in bed praying to fall asleep but you kept thinking of everything you had to get done? Well that is what is going on with me right now. I mean, geez, Eric is next to me snoring and Liam is in the bassinet making cute little sleeping noises and I am here making a mental to-do list.

1. Vacuum
2. Empty dishwasher
3. Pull out chicken for dinner
4. Go to the gym
5. Fold Liam's laundry and put away
6. Finish pricing items for our yard sale
7. Find a place to throw our old non-working piece of crap dryer
8. Finish working on my website
9. Call my mom
10. Wash Brody
11. Clean out fridge
12. Go to the grocery store
13. Clean bathroom

Oh my gosh, this list could go on forever but I will spare you the time because I am sure you would be able to fall asleep just by reading it. So anyways, this is the story of my life. This happens everytime I lay my tired little head on the pillow for the evening. Suggestions are completely welcome. Tomorrow I am hoping I can accomplish some if not all of this list and most of the rest that is still in my head. Well I hope you all have a wonderful night full of wonderful dreams!! I am hoping to be asleep fairly soon!!
