oh boooyyyy

geez, am I awful with this thing.  I swear I want to use it more to document my life with my little family but, I can just never

a) remember that its here

b) find time between naps, cleaning, working out (trying at least) and living my oh so exciting life (no sarcasm there right?...) (....or there :) )

and

c) come up with things to write about... my life is SO exciting.. i just never know where to start.  With the morning feeding?  The afternoon nap? taking the dogs out to go potty?  I know all of that is SO exciting! 

sike!

yes... I pulled that out.  I know you're jealous.


aaanyways.  We just got home from a little family vacation in Maine.  It was nice and semi-relaxing.  Tenley did an awesome job the whole trip even though we ripped her from her sweet little schedule at home.  I was very happy. : )  I'll make a longer post about that tomorrow... or monday.  One of the two... I swear!  I even have pictures!

Tomorrow is a big day for my hubby and I.  We are going to start working out.  Not really dieting since we eat as well as I think we can possibly eat.... but the working out part is definitely lacking.  I'll start documenting that as well.  I HAVE to document that becuase it is really the only way I can hold us accountable for it. 

Already (well, starting two days ago), we are going on a daily walk with the babe and the poochies.  Family time.. how sweet.  We live in a nice little community, so our walks are actually pretty relaxing. 

I also have decided I'm going to go back to school.  I dont know if I want to go back to just get teaching credentials or if I want to get my masters at the same time.  I have to look at the options first.  I am pretty excited about it.  carpe diem right?  I am pretty excited.  I LOVE school.  I know, I am a major geek...but i love it.  I do.  I love learning.  I can keep updates about that little journey too.

Maybe that now I can actually start doing things with my day other that nap when Tenley naps and feed her, I will actually have something to update on here. 


Oh... and speaking of things to update about.  This is what Tenley and I did on that day the world was supposed to end.  chilled on our patio. It was GORGEOUS outside... GORGEOUS i say!!

oooooh how I love this little bird.  she is so cute!!!

big changes

SO much has happened since the last time I updated this thing. 

1. Tenley ROLLED OVER!!!  It was SUPER exciting for me!  I caught it all on camera too!!  We were playing on the bed and she was squirming around and I washelping her roll over.  Then all of a sudden when she was on her belly, she rolled over to her back.  I thought maybe it was just a lucky chance because we have a really squishy bed and duvet cover, so I put her in her crib.  She was on her belly for a little bit, then she rolled over again!  I put her on her belly two more times and both times she rolled over!  I was so proud of her!  It is really the little things that makes mommy's hearts melt!

2. I officially left my company.  I told my boss I would not be returning to work and am now officially a SAHM. 

3. Tom and I are moving back to california at the end of July.  It is going to be kind of a stressful move, being that he and I will be travelling separately becuase I dont want to drive with Tenley, but I dont want to doggies to fly; but it is a much needed move.  I cant wait to get back home.

4. Tenley laughed out loud!!!!  She smiles ALL the time, but yesterday was the first time she let out a giggle... then a laugh!  We were playing on mommy and daddy's bed and I was making her do tummy time on mommy's tummy, then she rolled off on to the bed.  I flopped her back on my belly and said, "get back up here!" and she just started laughing!  It is the CUTEST laugh everrrrr!!  I tried to call daddy at work and leave him a message with her laughing but she stopped by time the message started recording.  Later on at night though daddy was holding her and she was getting sandwich kisses on both sides of her neck by mommy and daddy and she started laughing again!  Seriously, her laugh makes me just melt!

I woke up not feeling so hot today, so I think I am going to finish my tea and then do some work out action while Tenley sleeps in her swing.  We have a fun couple of weekends coming up.. this weekend is my friend Lauren's wedding and the following weekend, we are going to be spending a long holiday in Maine.  Should be fun fun fun : )

technical errors

So you know how the only computer I have is a netbook?  Well, a couple of days ago my netbook fell on the floor off of my couch (what, one, maybe two feet. max?) and it completely fried.  I have been without a computer for almost 3 days.  I was in the middle of such a nice post about the beautiful day Tenley and I had too.  I'll have to finish that later.

The weather has been gorgeous and I love it.  love. love. love. love it. 

Tom has a 4 day weekend this weekend, so we are enjoying some family time.  much needed family time.  Soo I probably wont get to updating until at least tuesday. 

this is just a pop in to say I am still breathing.

3 months

my little munchkin is 3 months old.

at three months you:

• smile at your mommy and daddy all of the time
• are starting to laugh out loud and it is the cutest thing ever
• love sitting up and anticipating it when I count to three
• Adele's 21 is your favorite CD.  When you're in the car and screaming, mommy can put it on super loud and you'll fall right asleep.
• have been to the Bronx Zoo, NYC, and the Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island
• copy mommy when she makes raspberry sounds with her mouth
• have slept through the night....once.
• are grabbing things and putting them in your mouth
• bite mommy's hands when you hold them
• had you're first little taste of frozen custard  at Shake Shack... not sure how much you liked it though.

You have hit so many milestones this month and mommy and daddy are so proud of you.  I love you little munchie munch.

tummy time

We have fun during tummy time.  Tenley hates being on her tummy when she isn't propped up at least a little bit, but when she is propped up, she has a ton of fun.

i love all the little faces she makes. : )
