Sometimes I have so much to say sometimes I don't even remember to update this.
My baby is going to be 1 in 3 weeks. The other day I was laying in bed with her and thinking this day last year I was praying I would have her before Christmas that she would be the best present ever! Today I sit with her thrilled that she came on her due date...the way it was suppose to be.
She is walking saying momma, dada, she even said bye bye to her daddy. The best is grandma she kinda growls that ...

Erika has started walking in the past week but today she is just all over. She has such a look of excitement in her eyes. She is thrilled with it! She is thrilled with herself!
The girls keep yelling she is walking mommy and of course they fight over who saw her first. I swear Erika is trying to walk away from those 2 fighting.
Erika is still so tiny not even 20 lbs. But she is walking right along.
She is my living doll!

So my moms group has Mother's Night Out, Bunco Night, Game Night, and Movie Night. They are quite an active group for moms and than every day of the week they have a kid and mom or dad planned event. So I normally go to the Bunco games and last night I was so tired didn't want to go but something said go. So I went and had so much fun met 12 new women and laughed, drank some, and had a good time.
Has anyone heard of Bunco? I guess here in VA it isn't really heard of as we had tons of new ...

My friends came down this weekend from NJ and we had a nice weekend. They are all single (1 got married in Sept.) and they wear designer clothes, have facials, pedicures, eyebrows waxed everything must be perfect. So we are having a girls night in watching what not to wear. My one friend who is 30 living home working as a director of a prestigious company for children earning probably more than me and DH together is cracking on these people on the show. I am saying to myself as I am trying to get ...

DH was offered a high school coaching job it is M-F 4-6 and Sat 1-3 plus 2 games a week and it is a far away school so he would not be home until 730 - 800 on weeknights. On top of that he would not be able to work his scheduled day off...they always let him work and it brings in another 500 a pay period if he works both days he is scheduled off. Granted it means he works 6 days a week but he loves his job so he is ok with that.
But he got this high school offer...a stepping stone on his ...

Well this weekend was not so shabby if I say so myself. On Saturday we went to a fall festival. We had fun I was so mad I was trying to take pics of the girls all around the pumkins and haystacks. Well one or the other would do something so I was taking single shots. I went to take one of them together finally and WHAM the battery died. What is up with batteries on digital cameras?
We came home and I carved my first pumpkin. I see why my mom never did that and let me paint them. It wasn't ...

So I have been addicted to Tupperware for some time. I decided to sign up because they have a 15 sign up and than I will get my discount and I can take part in 50% sales for consultants. My husband thinks I am nuts, how will I have time to sell...I said sweety don't worry I am only going to purchase for the discount...so great he says so you are going to spend our money that you are suppose to be earning from parties? LOL
I always laugh when I think of Doodles post about ghetto tupperware...I ...

I have been online all night doing work for my job and than just surfing the net. Why can't I sleep? Everyone here is in bed, Mikayla even came into our bed so I told DH me and the baby would sleep downstairs...all because I wanted to stay online and research some stuff. This is crazy! So here I am.
Erika was a nightmare tonight getting her to sleep. We are going to have the new sitter his sister come over tomorrow so she can get used to our pampered Princess. This girl just likes to be ...

I woke up this morning praying it was raining. Mikayla had a soccer game at 9am than tball at 1pm I just didn't want to go. I didn't get snacks last night so I would have had to go to the store this am before the game and get snacks. I was snack mom for both teams today so double the snacks would be needed. They are suppose to be healthy my DH said what are you getting I said well what about little bottles of pepsi and m&m bags do you think the parents would hate me LOL.
Well as luck ...

It is allergies she said. I am going to stop bf Erika and get her used to a bottle. With me going back to work anyway it will be better for both of us to get her used to a sippy cup actually instead of a bottle the ped said and than I won't have to lug the PIS around and we will both be happy. A Happy Mom makes a Happy Baby.
She gave me 3 presciptions and also a referral to a nutritionist. I am going to have the lap band surgery for weight loss. I can't wait until it is all complete and ...
