Tulip Girl

I know I wrote a post already today, and you are free to read it of course but then I had more to say. Satan really got me this morning as I went about my day asking me why I think anyone cares about what I have to say. Well, I want you to know that I shot him down real quick. Is it because I am a steller Christian? No, it isn't and I'm not. It is because of those I write to, you. You see I started this blog way back when I moved to Virginia because at the time those I deeply loved and I knew deeply loved me were far far away in Arizona, Idaho, and at the time California and in Georgia for Dan. Wanting to shorten that distance a bit and not lose touch with the fam. and my dear friends, I started a blog to keep them updated with my life. My sis, Michelle, has her two blogs so I keep up with her there. My SIL Laura has a blog and facebook so I keep up with her there. Since then of course my blog has expanded to have other purposes like an outlet for writing as that is my ...

Sarah insisted on getting her last bottle thirty minutes early and then went to sleep. She was asleep before 8:30. We went to bed at 9pm. Sarah didn't wake up at all in the night. I got up when Dan did at 5am and gave Sarah a bottle. She went back to sleep until 9am. So did I. :) Ah blissfull. Dan was able to get a full 8 hours, something I don't think has happened in a long while. He needed it since he is not feeling well. I hoping to get him to bed early again today. I way overslept, but who can say that with a baby in their house? I feel human again. Oh, and I did take some blankets to make myself a makeshift bed in Sarah's room just in case. As I posted before, Sarah sees my as bigger than Miley Cyrus (or Hannah Montana or whatever). Well, maybe I need to contact Miley and ask her what she does when her fans get a little to obsessed? Bodygaurds you say? Restraining orders? Tinted windows on my car? Oh, well, I guess I'm just going to have to be over...

Sarah is definitely making her own schedule. She likes to go to bed around 7:30, wake up at 3:30, eat and then sleep again until seven. Her naps the last couple days, she has been waking herself up. I'm looking forward the next growth spurt. Is that bad? Today nap time was harry scary. She slept for thirty minutes woke up poopie went to sleep thirty minutes woke up hungry. I finally got her down. She's asleep as we speak. I felt like it was midnight feeding her. I took a nap. My brain is numb. I went to bed at 10:30 last night but any sleep between 3:30 and six was on the floor in Sarah's room. I lay on the floor until she falls asleep so Dan doesn't wake up. I fell asleep long before she did apparently. I think I slept in there for an hour. Dan said he came in to see where I was at and I was the only one asleep apparently. At six I went back to bed. Sarah woke up at 6:30. I was plum done in. Unfortunately, caffiene and my heart don't get along. ...

What a nice Sunday afternoon just driving down the road. Oh! Hello there. Fancy meeting you here. Oh, gosh, thank you. I think you are beautiful too.

I joined twitter! Oh my goodness, I'm so on the in crowd (I'm rolling my eyes at me too). I did it mostly to follow McMama and Stellan but I think I will get to twittering also. I'm a social gal after all and I need to be connected! Speaking of socializing, I have my MIL, Sandra here. She flew in yesterday. I am so excited to have someone to talk to and to help with Sarah. Sandra was able to feed Sarah when she woke up (after she slept in HIP HIP HOORAY!). I got to take a shower, do my hair and make and eat breakfast. Life is so good. Here is something not so good. According to the Department of Home Land Security, since I am against abortion and illegal immigration, I am considered a possible domestic terrorist. Since Dan is also against these things and he is an Iraqi veteran, he too is a possible domestic terrorist. Can you believe that? He serves his country and now is pegged with such a vile label. What is this country coming to? Those who gathered to prom...

Hello to my family and Mommy's friends. I thought I would post some pictures of me since Mommy has kind of been slacking on that front lately. ;) I am rockin' Mommy's vintage if I do say so myself. Grammie saved some of Mommy's clothes including this dress and cardigan. Say it people, oooh aaah :) Here is me with my Daddy. He loves me and boy do I love him! This is me with Mr. Phil, Daddy's friend. He has a cute son named Braydon.

You read that title right my folks. When it comes to lighting my daughter's face up, it doesn't take Miley Cyrus or Zac Efron. Mommy and Daddy are all it takes to make those peepers open wide and a big grin to cross her face. What an awesome feeling. Last night as Daddy fed Sarah, I said something to him and her eyes immediately opened and she looked over at me. Every morning when I go in her room, and when ever she is on the nappie changing table (I call them nappies, I don't know why, but it works for me), she is all smiles. I just eat it up. That and the last three days, she has been inconsolably tired by the end of the day and it is only my chest she wants to lay on. Oh yeah! :) Woot! Woot! It is also fun to watch her head turn towards Dan when he gets home. He left to have breakfast with a friend this morning and as he walked out of the room talking, Sarah trailed him out. So cool! I'm sure when she is a toddler or when ever she is overly clingy it m...
