Sober

For the past few days I have been sobering up from my addiction.
It's a little hard to talk about since most people, even family, don't know that I have one.

For the past several months it has been getting steadily worse- affecting my life and my budget immensly. Cravings rule my day and distract attention from the things I need to do. When I can't get a hit, the withdrawls make my body go numb... like I'm missing air. Nothing is right and nothing sounds good. A colorless, tasteless world.

When I say I'm sobering up... know that it wasn't entirely intentional- I ran out. My good husband has been supporting me through this tough time and I know that I can come out on the clean side... I don't want my addiction to affect my health or family anymore. I won't even tell you how many packs I can go through in one day.

What am I addicted to?

I like the new bananas mommy got. A LOT,

Me say: Trouble'sa brewin'

See this ridculously cute little boy? He's going to be trouble. How do I know?

He is funny about sleep. He has started fussing at nap time cuz he only likes to be in a bed. (or the car seat if we're on the go.) When he sleeps by me to nap- he's RIGHT there...a snugly, and here's how sleeping in his own bed goes...

He already puts up a battle royale to get a taste of food. The other day I let him lick my vanilla ice cream- bad idea. He's a little begger, which may turn out to be a little thief in the upcoming months. And no, grandparents and great grandparents, he doesn't get all he begs for! (by the way I think begging for soda is in the blood!)

I get this charming smile when he gets into something...

How he got the socks out of the basket- I have know idea... no one else was home but the two of us! And apparently... socks are guuuddde!

No matter how I lay him in the living room, he always ends up facing the boob tube. That's bad I know- but how can I stop it? If I turn the TV off, I can't get anything done...he scoots so fast! (by the way he's trying to crawl...) I have to watch him like a hawk already... he LOOKS too little to be mischiefy, but looks are deceiving.

And lastly... he's just funny. I was doing yoga and he weasled me off the mat... to sleep. I don't have a pic, but yesterday I gave him a bottle (he can hold them now) and he inched the blanket that was on him to prop the bottle so he didn't have to hold it...

I'm sorry. I know I'm becoming 'one of THOSE moms' but I really haven't been up to much else. Little is my life!

OH! We did take him on his first campout. It rained. It was windy. He was a real trooper and never cried or got upset, he was happy as could be in the tent with daddy even with the scary rain.

Twilight

I'm sure most of you have read or heard of this book series...which I decided to read to prove how silly it was- I didn't like Bella's attitude...but liked it enough to see how it ended. Now, in no way was I CRAZY about this book. But I knew a lot of people who were... in fact, one family member bought out a theater to see the movie, and another took her kids to the midnight showing! I never did see the movie while in theaters. Mostly because while talking to a friend I was told that they didn't stay as true to the book as I would have hoped. (for time's sake I guess...) and when I saw who they'd cast as actors I was a tad disappointed in a few choices.

Well after all the rave I decided I'd see the movie when it came out, and my husband and I jokingly decided I should go at midnight to walmart to get it. (I also did this with batman) THERE WAS A LINE! A billion teens stood in line for this movie, and since I've never really done so for anything, I decided to join in- knowing walmart surely wouldn't run out of the film. An hour later after hearing all sorts of feedback I purchased my copy and headed home a little flabbergasted. I couldn't think of many things that were that trendy in my day that I actually bought into... maybe a boy band or too... but this was like T-shirts and jewelry and all kinds of swag... I am amazed still at how much money a few parents ahead of me dropped on twilight crap for their kids!

Anyway- I had to find out if it was the rave as soon as I got home... and I had one thought: would I have known what was going on if I hadn't read it? I mean they never even introduced the names of 1/2 the friends...or more about his family... am I thinking of later book material?? Idk.
Either way...

Oh. and another funny thing. You know how you really don't know how you sound to everyone else? Well during the movie, I mentioned that Bella had a non-femine voice, to which my sister and husband looked at each other and started laughing. Thanks. I guess I have a dude voice. Lol.

encore!

Teeny and his million dollar smile

I found him napping like this the other day... nice. he looks like he's either praying... or completely sobbing: punished. when I tried to move his arms, he didn't have that, he stayed that way for the whole 4 hour nap!


one of my favs... he's in the middle of a cute conversation.
"ungh" is the most often heard... that and a squeal!

here ya go.

I've gotten quite an earful about not posting enough pics... here are some random pics of Little Boy! hehe

He's such a happy baby... he giggles all the time now!

when we get up in the morning, he waits on the couch for 'breakfast'... this is how I usually find him, he likes to lounge.

"UGH."- he has that worn out look. cute little man!

and this is just the sweet innocent face I get when he's tired!

how could you not love that face?

We love you "leeda"!
