You’re My Brown Eyed Girl January 24, 2008
I serioulsy did not think I could love someone this much. I love her more than life itself. She keeps me happy each and every day. She has the sweetest smile anyone has ever seen. Ever since I found out I was pregnant I knew I would love her forever. She will always be my baby girl no matter what. When she looks at me with those beautiful brown eyes she makes me smile.
Moment Of Truth January 23, 2008

4 More Months! January 22, 2008
It’s actually less than that!
That’s how close Natalie’s first birthday is! I’m planning her birthday party already because if I plan it a month before I will never ever be ready for that day. Her exact birthday falls on a Sunday so we are thinking we can do it on that day. I thought long and hard about making her a cake but I have given up on that idea since I dont think I can do it. I have made other cakes in the past but those were just simple cakes, you know, without fondant and decorations except the icing. I have looked at tons of cakes on the internet and I have found a few that I fell in love with. Is it okay to have a pinata at a kid’s first birthday party or should I just use one of those you pull the strings on? I want the whole hitting on the thing action, you know? I will post pictures later on today.
Ok I’ve narrowed it down to 3 cakes. I’m still unsure which one I should order but I do know that I want a 2 layer cake with a smash cake for Natalie. For food I’m thinking I can get my husband to grill some burgers and hot dogs. And I can get some chips with dips to put on the tables. And of course fruits and finger foods! I’m thinking of other first birthday ideas but I cant recall them at the moment. Oh I also want to do the time capsule thing. I’m sure she will love it when the time comes for her to open it. Anyone have any other ideas?
My Husband *sigh* January 22, 2008
Has the worst manners in the whole world. True story. He must get it from his family. . .
Seriously he leaves somewhere without telling me bye or without giving me a kiss. Am i just a wall or a statue? Hello? Do you not see me sitting here, idiot? Does yours do this also or am I just the one that is cursed with a husband like this?
Don’t even get me started on his loud snoring. OMG he wakes me and Natalie up. Even wakes up the damn dog! I have contemplated rolling him off the bed but I’m afraid he will seriously get hurt by that. I dont want to hurt him, well sometimes I do, but I just want him to stop snoring because I’m sleep deprived and have been since day one of becoming a mother!
And the other thing is that he is such a mama’s boy. Seriously! I dont even know what to say about that! He is just the ultimate mama’s boy! He is the oldest [okay second oldest out of 4] and he gets treated like a baby still. His parents constantly tells him that he should have never gotten married in front of me! Umm Hellllo!
Mayo Jar + 2 Cups of Coffee January 22, 2008
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours
in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of
coffee…
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in
front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very
large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf
balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the
jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He
then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand f filled up everything else. He asked once more if
the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “yes.”
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table
and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the
empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
“Now,” said the professor, as the laughter subsided, “
I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - God, family, your
children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions –
things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your
life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your
house, and your car.
The sand is everything else — the small stuff.
“If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no
room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you
spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have
room for the things that a re important to you.
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play with your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.”
Take care of the golf balls first — the things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee
represented. The professor smiled. “I’m glad you asked. It just goes
to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always
room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.”

The Beginning. January 22, 2008
My first blog. I hope that I dont forget about this by tomorrow. I’ve had way too many blogs. Maybe I should delete them all and keep this one. The problem is I dont know the username I used for them or the email I registered with. Well you can find me here anytime and everyday. I’ll be here trying to figure things out.
