A lot has happened this past week and it's been fantastic!

We switched my gym membership from Gold's to Anytime because it's right down the road as opposed to driving 20 minutes each way. Since then I've gone every day except for Saturday I took the day off. Paisley loves the kid's center and even though It's not as big as Gold's there is a lot to do and she loves it there where she used to cry at Gold's. So that a huge plus. The very first day she didn't want to leave which made me really happy that I switched. I'm hoping going to the gym every day will keep the bad weight down. Last pregnancy it was out of control and I never want to be there again so hopefully I'll look and feel better this time around.
Along with going to the gym every day I've finally kicked the caffeine habit so with both of those going in to my 2nd trimester I'm feeling fantastic. I'm feeling so good I've been cleaning the house like I used too. For the past 3 months I can say I cleaned but I didn't, Chris has been picking up the slack, Thank goodness or this house would be disgusting. I know he appreciates that I'm back to my old cleaning self again! haha

Paisley's learning and loving her colors and letters. We're half way through the letters and although I don't like most of the kid shows on tv she's always loved Word World and so do I and now she yells out the letters that she sees when they build words.
I finally had a full weekend off since I started working so we were able to go to church for the first time since we moved. It was great. Paisley did wonderful in the nursery and we got to enjoy ourselves without worry up in the sanctuary. After that I went to the gym and stopped at the grocery store and cooked lunch and dinner. It felt like the longest most productive day ever, but it was great.
Yesterday was a little stressful went to the gym and decided to take Paisley to the indoor playground. By the time we got there I got a text from Chris saying he was going to have a late day which was bad because I needed to be at work before he was supposed to get home so after she played for a while we got home and I started my frantic calling to work and emailing friends to see if anyone could babysit Paisley until he got out of work. Thankfully, I was able to find someone and get to work on time. I was hoping and thinking about staying on to work after the "holiday" time period if they asked me but after yesterday and being so stressed out to find a babysitter if it ever happened again I don't know if I want to. It felt like my job was a burden rather than being helpful.

Finally, today started out with a bang. Paisley woke up with a runny nose and a cough but acting like herself so I gave her a nice bath to hopefully help a little. Breakfast was going well until Bear hit the floor for his monthly seizures and round one Paisley tried to get to him so I had to barricade him and try to keep her away while trying to talk to him. Round 2 she was eating with her nose running like a faucet so I'd run to wipe her nose and run back to Bear to talk to him and help him through it. After eating my soggy cereal it's gotten better I was able to clean the house get the laundry and dishwasher going and cook Paisley a snack. She's having a blast throwing her blanket over Lola's head and laughing until Lola gets it off and licks her in the face and she does it all over again.
Paisley has changed her words from Mommy and Daddy to Om and Da not sure if that's normal but she has become a complete Daddy's girl. She's walking around the house calling for Da and looking out the window like she does when he takes the dogs out. It's funny and sad at the same time.
Work again tonight and I'm hoping I have some energy after work so I can go to the gym. I was going to take her to the indoor playground again this morning but because she's sick I decided to keep her home. So gym after work it is. Hooray for a better day and a better year!
