Shaggy No More

Monday Blues

To all my SS gals, I will sadly be out of town this Monday. So eat enough for me and the baby. Love to all!

I need help from the pros

Hey all you pro-bloggers...when people comment on my posts and I want to respond to their comments, what do I do??

Chips and Salsa and Uno Esposo Magnifico

I have to come clean...I am addicted to chips and salsa...I literally crave this food all the time. Today, while my husband was coming home early from work (he doesn't feel well), he stopped at Monterrey and picked up an order of chips and salsa for me. I am on a chips and salsa high right now because I ate the whole bag! (and I could probably eat more) Thank you my sweet husband.

Time for a haircut?

Discovery Island

Matt and I took Baby L to Discovery Island today. It was the first trip for each of us. At first L was overwhelmed by all the people and splashing water, but after a few laps around the lazy river and a few pretzels we secretly ate when no one was looking (apparently they'll kick you out if you bring your own food), he was loving it. Here are pics of L and daddy playing.

Baby L and the Vaccuum

Today was a monumental day in the life of Baby L. He has conquered his fear of the vaccuum. Just the sight of that giant sucking machine makes him cry and run away. But today while I was vacuuming with Baby L on my hip, I set him down on the recliner and continued vaccuuming. He sat in the chair clutching his bear, just watching. Now this alone is a huge step. But then when I was in the bedroom vaccuuming, I turned and there was my baby. He had gotten off the chair and followed me into the bedroom, and even approached the vaccuum, and I think he may have giggled. I hope this carries over until the next vaccuuming venture. I'll be sure to let you know. Happy Friday to all!

The sweetest child

I know everyone probably thinks their child is the sweetest child, but I truly believe if there could only be one Sweetest Child, mine would have to win. This morning I spent two hours cleaning (there's a shocker), but while I was sweeping and mopping and cleaning out the fridge, was my little one under my feet, whining, or getting into stuff? NO! He happily played all around me, throwing his ball and running to retrieve it. He never left my sight, but he never got in my way. It was as if he understood how rare a thing this cleaning was and didn't want to interfere. After all the work, he and I celebrated what a good boy he was by playing in the water hose and swinging, his two favorite things right now. I just feel like bragging on him all the time, so I think this blogging thing is the perfect outlet for me to do so. And just so you know, when we came inside from playing, he quietly laid in his crib and fell asleep. aaaah, I am such a proud mama.

Eligible Bachelor

Alright, all you moms of daughters...you better act quick to snatch this dream boat. Great smile, loves his mama, and...here's the kicker...loves to vaccuum. That's right, ladies, the perfect man! But BACK OFF because he's all MINE!

I'm a blogger...
