The Goings On In My World

I feel like I have been such a terrible blogger lately. I have been in full out party planning mode. Lil Mama turned 1 on Thursday and her party is on Sunday. It was every bit of my intention for this to be a small family oriented get together but you know how that is. This thing has grown a head of its own and its ego is huge. Every post next week will probably be filled with photos.

Last week I enrolled Lil Man in Kindergarten. He is anxious. Me? Not so much. I picked him up from school today and he had the nerve to walk in the house with only one strap of his book bag on. Told me that’s how the kindergartener’s wear their book bags. I can’t.

Lil Mama is walking and woe is ANYTHING in her way. My day is now filled with removing things from her hand and mouth…aaaand she had the nerve to try to speed crawl away from me the other day. She is still nursing, I am going the route of self weaning, while introducing Almond Milk. She is developing a little personality now. Sheer hilarity!

I went this week for my 3 month blood pressure/cholesterol check. My blood pressure is down to 120/84 Woot Woot! Told you I wasn’t playing games with this. I have removed excess sodium, and dairy from my diet. I run on average 3 times a week. This past week I beat my personal record and ran/walked 2 miles in 30 minutes. < THIS!

I see all of you vlogging this past week. I haven’t had the time to comment on your blogs, please forgive me but I’ve been inspired and Tuesday I will unveil a new feature for the blog and it involves vlogging. I pray this goes well.

Well its no mystery that photography has become a recent hobby  obsession of mine. I am currently working on the website for….

 

I hope to have it up by the first of June. I have started taking pictures for other people…here’s a few.

  

In Atlanta, and would like some photos captured of you, your little one or family…email me at [email protected] let’s talk!

Have a great weekend everybody. Make sure to come by next week to see how the Lil Rockstar got down at her birthday party!

Soooo Not Ready

Today, Lil Mama turned 8 months. Within the past few weeks she has truly made some incredible strides in her development. After what seemed like an eternity of drooling and fussiness she finally cut the cutest little “peg” on the bottom. She has become more verbal, her hair has grown long enough for me to put into ponytails and the biggest shocker of them all is she is already pulling up, and yesterday had the nerve to pull up AND let go.

An eight month old walker? I have a feeling she will go this month. We shall see, my son walked at 10 months, and he started pulling up only 2 weeks before he took his first steps. So looks like she has him beat. Guess I might need to make baby proofing a priority and from the looks of the picture below, I need to keep all clean laundry out of her reach, lest it hit the floor..*sigh*

How old was/were your child(ren) when they started walking?

Five Fabulous Months!

Addison,
You turned five months on October 12. At your four month doctors appointment you weighed 13lbs. 8oz. and you don’t return to the Dr. until you are six months.During this month you got your ears pierced, tasted a little cereal for the first time. You are still breastfed and are NOT sleeping through the night on a consistent basis. When nursing you like to grab my lips or swing your little arms and hit me in the face. You are smiling and laughing alot. You still cannot sit up by yourself, although you are trying. You blow a ton of spit bubbles and can wet up a bib and shirt like nobody’s business. You are now rolling over big time, and we can’t take our eyes off of you for one second, lest you hit the floor.
You can surely turn into a Diva at a moments notice..just like your mama!!
You are reaching for everything and refuse to stay in the swing or your bouncy seat.
You and your brother are interacting more, and it warms my heart
We don’t particularly like for you to fall asleep in this thing, but you seem to like it more than the bed
When sleeping in the bed most of the time your little butt butt is in the air and other times…
you find it hard to keep your little hands and feet inside
You found your toes and….
it is not uncommon for your bib to turn into a cape
You are the princess of this house and are waited on hand and foot. Thus this photo of you in chill mode enjoying one of your favorite past times…sucking on your socks.
Mommy
