Bounce around update.

play hard.. love deep... say your prayers before you sleep.. love your neighbors... forgive your foes.. for life is short, how long? who knows... so see these rules and take them in.. for life may be hard, but love will win...

No that is not a JMo original, but I read it and loved it and thought I'd share.

It's been a pretty good week. My 3 days of work seemed to drag on, but Thursday finally arrived. Not before Wednesday (obvs) which was my wonderful hubby's 29th birthday!! He is so bummed about turning 30 it's ridiculous. I could not care less to be quite honest. Maybe it's because I'm only (about to be) 24 and I have a few more years in my 20's to go...who knows.
Anyhow, I asked about 100 times what he wanted and he said nothing, like he usually does, so I got him a lunch box for work. He had been taking his lunch to work in Walmart bags, and it was a pretty sad sight. I figured since he wouldn't tell me what he wanted, I would get him something he needed and could use everyday. He liked it! I got him a card from me, and one from our babe. It was SUPER sweet! AND my dad sent him a card too! With money in it! I was so surprised! My dad's a cool guy though. I'm sorry you all will never know the awesome-ness that is my father.
I guess we're going out tonight with friends to celebrate. The babe will be coming so hopefully she'll behave. We really need to find at least one other person that we can trust to watch her. Other than her weekday nanny, we have one person. And what if we need someone to keep her when that person can't? We're screwed.

I'm currently looking for another job, I was cut down to 3 days a week after only working full time for 2 weeks. It pretty much sucks, but at least I still have some sort of income. And 3 days is definitely better than none at all. Our HR person gave me a couple of resources to go through, and I sent out a couple applications/resumes. Maybe I'll hear back...that'd be awesome!

As of tomorrow I will have been a non-smoker for 1 YEAR! That's right. We found out February 26th 2010 that we were expecting and I smoked my last cigarette... I still miss smoking. I want to do it everyday. But I don't. And I wont. It's not fair to my babe....now it's just getting the MR. to quit....

I know this kind of jumped around all over the place but that's how things go these days....

Enjoy your weekend!!

Wordless Wednesday.

Soo sleepy

My kid went to bed last night at 1030.
Then she woke up at 1

Then again at 2...

and for a final time at 5.....we've been up ever since.

Now, when I saw we, I mean, we were both awake. I did some laundry, and made myself a nice big cup o' joe. As soon as I downed it, BAM! The kid passes out. OF COURSE since I finished off my coffee, I'm too wired to go back to sleep, so updating here, and watching Regis & Kelly it is.

The plan for today is to dress the kid all cute (myself too, of course) and head to the mall. I need to return some jeans to the Gap, they're too big ::huge grin::
I've never been to the mall by myself with the little one, so I'm sure today will be an adventure. And my luck would have it that the little mall close to my house doesn't have a Gap so I have to go out to the biiiiiig mall. Boo.

Well I was going to make this a nice, long entry, but the kid has awoken...so this'll have to do.

My mid-weekend post

This is new. I usually don't have time to post anymore since I'm gone Monday through Friday from 7a to 6p.....but I've got a few minutes since the kiddo is napping.

The hubs and I have been apartment shopping for the last 2 weeks, and I think we may have found one.
We really wanted to move closer to our nanny who lives about 15 miles east of us, so we looked and looked and had no luck at all. The places we saw were either run down looking, in a bad area, or smaller than we wanted.
Well, the complex right next to where we are living now has been bought by new owners, and they're renovating and updating them. The hubs checked them out last week before I got home, and he has been raving about them ever since, so today we finally went so I could see it. Oh.My.God. While the outside still isn't as nice as it could be (they painted them really odd colors, think brown and tan that seems more purple and peach) the inside is really nice. Not to mention, HUGE. I think the living room there is nearly half the size as our current place. We literally looked at every available place within a 15 mile radius, and this is the best place. Although it doesn't get us any closer to our nanny, it nearly doubles our living space, for just a little more each month. Now we can have people over and not feel like we're sitting on top of one another. We'll be moving April 1st. I'm ready. Our place is way too small for us. Our growing babe takes up more room than we thought.

And with that, I'm outta here.

P.S.
I'm secretly hoping Pittsburgh wins tomorrow. (Don't tell the Mr.) ;)
