Valentine's Day

It is the night before Valentine's Day - what does this mean to me?  Nothing really... Although I seem to be in the V-Day spirit - sporting my heart scarves, wearing my red jacket, buying a card for my husband, making sure Oliver wears his vday outfit tomorrow.  But REALLY what does it mean to me?  Nothing.

If I have to choose between getting overpriced flowers and yucky tasting chocolate and try to snag a table at a crowded restaurant just to have proof that my husband cares?  Nah I am good...  I'd rather go with the normal route - random flowers throughout the year :)  

Patrick - Thank you again for sending flowers to my work last month :)  They were beautiful!!!

Where did the time go?!?

6 months ago I was a very pregnant and very hot and ready to meet my baby. All I wanted was to hold him in my arms.

Here I am now 6 months later a Mom to the most amazing (biased - I know) and cutest (people keep saying that a lot) baby. We've had our ups and downs, we've laughed more than cried. I've done some crazy things to soothe him (let's be glad there is no picture of the straight out of shower let's calm the baby in the carrier while freezing to death). Sometimes no matter what you, he still cries. I've learned alot about myself and I've grown as a person. Sleeping has become a thing of the past and I hope to discover it again in the future ;) However hearing him laugh and babble, seeing his face light up and smile when he sees me, Patrick or Frankee, feeling his touch fills my heart with joy.

Let's not forget about Patrick: he has been pretty amazing with our son, there are some moments I shake my head, but most of the time he is in control. I don't care what he thinks, but pants are not optional during the winter! Even Frankee seems to be ok with Oliver now, she is realizing that he will be a food supply very soon.

I still have no idea how the last six months just flew by...
