Skipping Church

By the time Sunday morning rolls around, I am totally exhausted. Lately, I have been trying to sleep in on Sunday mornings, so I have not exactly made it to Church much this month (Rick has to go because it is his month to be an usher:) Anyway, when I skip, Vivian hangs out with me. Now Vivian does not like to sleep in. She could spend a whole night awake, fall asleep at 6:45 am and be up and ready to start her day promptly at 7:00 am. Not cool. Usually after she is fed, I let her watch a movie while I stay in bed - it does not always work out really well as you can see.

Imagine my surprise when Vivian and Tibbs come out of the bathroom with Vivian wrapped up in toliet paper. She was so pleased with herself.

Then it was time to go back for more - Tibbs is following along to take care of the paper trail.

It is a good look for you kid. Now let Mommy get some sleep!!!

Putting Out an A.P.B. for CBR

It would appear that the month of February got away from me in blog world. To those of you who check this blog often and have been totally frustrated with my lack of posting, I apologize. I do have a pretty good reason though, you see February was a pretty crazy month at our house.

I feel the need to do a top ten - so here it is, the top ten things going on at our house in February (in Letterman countdown format).

10. Vivian is EVERYWHERE and into EVERYTHING.

9. Vivian went for a checkup at her doctor and got a great report - she was 20 pounds 14 ounces (finally got to 20 lbs.) and she does not have to go back until her 2 year old appointment:)

8. I now have 2 bosses and the same paycheck - seriously, although I am still on the GT and am not like taking work home or working weekends, it is definitely different and I am still adjusting.

7. We had a good valentine's day - I took Rick and Vivian out to dinner the night before Valentines day and Rick cooked dinner on Valentines day - very nice.

6. My husband was busy getting ready to spend the end of February trapping. My husband's trapping sent him to the hospital when he caught one of our outside cats and instead of letting her go by dumping her out of the live trap, he decided to pick her up - bad move. He got bit on the index finger several times and had to spend almost two days in the hospital. After he was better (well after I knew he would be okay), I laughed.

5. We had some pretty sad news in our community because Rick's boss's son got killed in a car wreck. That was pretty hard on everyone who knew the family and it continues to be difficult for a lot of people.

4. I injured my thumb and was unable to type for a while. It was a very silly accident that still makes me cringe - trust me, you don't want to know. Good news is my thumb is feeling better now.

3. I have been sick on my stomach.

2. I am always sleepy.

1. I am pregnant.

8 weeks 3 days to be exact. We went to the doctor week before last and everything seems to be okay. I am due October 22. Vivian will be getting a baby brother or sister for her second birthday on October 13. It is cool, I wish I felt better though. We have so much to do to get ready for the baby - particularly to get Vivian ready for the baby. I hope it all goes smooth.

Anyway - that is what I have been up to. I promise to blog more in March.
