new teeth....

...so Holden is officially teething and has a new tooth to show for it. I think another tooth should come through any day now.  He hasn't had too rough of a time with it so far so hopefully it won't get any worse.  Although on top of the teething he got a stomach bug which has already been passed around to the entire family.  I am hoping it stays away from me!

come on spring....

I know I am a little early in wishing for spring, but today is the first day of 70 degree weather and I am in love.  Just knowing that warm weather is around the corner puts me in an extremely good mood.  Now don't get me wrong, there are thing I do not like about springtime.  Pollen, allergies, and most of all pastels.  On the flip side there are many things that I love about the change to the season.

mi favorita things

Here is Holden in an outfit from Baby Chai.....



.....this is a must have for any new mom!

my current situation....

no, I am not talking about Mike from the Jersey Shore.  My current situation is having so much I need to do, and so much I want to do and not having near enough time in the day to do it.  I have realized that sleep is not the one thing I could use more of, but time is.  If  I had more time, I could sleep more...... I never realized how much free time I had on my hands before I had Holden, I just wish I knew then what I know now! Last night I did have a much needed girls night outing with my favorite ladies. We saw "No Strings Attatched" and it was great!
The girls and I had a great time talking about realtionships and laughing at some hilarious scenes in the movie.  Too bad real life isn't like the movies, but  a girl can dream I guess!  .....It was weird being at the theater because the last time I was there was the night I went into labor.  I couldnt help thinking about those first contractions as I sat in the seat watching the movie....oh how time flies!

Another thing I havent had much time for lately is reading.  I love to read, and  I think it is a great way to realax and loose yourself just for a little while in a place other than reality.  While I was pregnat I started reading "Husband & Wife" and I just recently started reading it again.  I hope to finsish it soon, but reading time is usually the same as bath time and these days even bath time is scarce!
