I think I just blinked for one second and now it is December... a week away from Christmas to be exact. Working, doctor's visits, shopping, cleaning, wrapping, and traveling are all on the "to-do list" for the week. Sometimes I would like to just close my little eyes and wander off to a faraway place with warm breezy air, palm trees, and beautiful pool-blue waves........
Hmmmmmm
Well, not including the above list, I am working a full-time Mama job caring for my sweet 15 month old girl. She is my pride and joy! This week she has discovered the art of climbing ON EVERYTHING! I walked out of the room for one second, walked back in, and there she was.... STANDING on top of the dining room table and there was water all over the floor!!!!!!! When did that happen?!?! AHHHHHH! ;)
Today I finished some projects on the "soon-to-be's" room (including moving the changing table, swing, and rocking chair into place), and organized my Caydence's room (including moving the toddler bed into her room). Yes, I moved a toddler bed into my 15 month old's room! WHAT AM I THINKING?!?!!?? Ok.. here is what I am thinking.... I have one crib, I was given a toddler bed, and I want to save money and NOT buy another crib. Do you think it will work?!?!?!? I sure hope so... I know this is going to be a struggle for sure. NEED LOT'S OF PRAYER! :)
Well, I gotta go get "Punkin" ready for bed. We will try the toddler bed tomorrow at nap-time. I am not dealing with that tonight! Well, night-night! :)
Love,
Em

Monday Morning
Woke up @ 7am with a sudden realization that my baby slept through the night. The past couple nights have been rough because I finally stopped swaddling her...which makes her hate sleeping on her back. So, I put her on her belly to sleep last night... and it worked like magic!
Getting a good night sleep is a great start to your day, so I got up and celebrated with a fruit smoothie and some wholegrain waffles. MMMMM. :)
I am missing my husband today... every Monday is like a withdrawal when he goes back to work.... and every Friday is like a huge relief because you know he is back (except when you know that the weekend will be crazy busy, and you know you won't hardly see him at all).
Oh how I long for some warmth (the kind when you can wear shorts and tank tops)... I am looking forward to setting up a baby pool in our backyard and soaking in it with Caydence, sitting out on the back porch in the mornings with Caleb (drinking coffee), going for walks around the block with my family, letting Caydence sit around with just a diaper on, going to parks, and so much more.
It's funny how winter is just really depressing. In the spring and summer, I don't have a hard time getting up because I am so excited about my day... but winter is a completely different story. I guess I shall say that I suffer from sun deprivation.
Well, my little one is thinking she needs me, so I will go check on her, then do laundry, then wash dishes, then vacuum, then clean the rest of my house... bleh. :)
Have a wonderful day all!

I am so inconsistent... lol. I get so excited that I am going to start a blog, and then I never make new posts... kind of like the rest of my inconsistent life. :(
Well, Caydence is now just 4 days away from being 5 months old! It is crazy how fast she has grown! I went through all her little photos and videos today and just cannot believe how fast she has grown. She went from sleepy newborn to wiggly and giggly baby in what seems just a few minutes.
I am hoping to be a little more consistent with my blogging, but I am guessing that may not happen. Well, I am going to feed my little munchkin and put her to bed, watch a little CNN, spend some time with Caleb <3, and then head my little tush to bed.
Love from Emily (to my one lone reader CALEB). :)
