How Could I forget we found out November 1st 2011 we will be adding more to the family. Haven't had an ultrasound yet and won't until the end of February but we are both excited.
We are starting potty training with Paisley and so far it's been tough, which is no surprise. I know it will get easier the more and more we do it and she loves to sit on her potty so I'm ready for the adventure.
I also started working part time the same day we found out. Nights and weekends and it's been nice to get out of the house and for Paisley to have Daddy time. It's really helped her connect with him when she was first afraid of even leaving my site even if it was just him. Oh the things the Navy does to your children. She's a Daddy's girl now and he's become master of bed time. All I get is a jumping monkey on the bed but he goes in and she's asleep in less than ten minutes. It's ridiculous and I have to say I'm kind of jealous. haha
Paisley got lots of goodies for Christmas. A basketball hoop, kitchen set, tool bench, instruments, puzzles, a fish tank, and an art desk with crayons and paper. She's learning just about a word a day now and recognizes animals and says the noises, mastered her shape puzzle, recognizes a couple letters and says what they are, knows most of her body parts and lots of words. She loves to dance and tries to sing and loves loves loves to brush her teeth. She loves jumping at skyzone which is a huge room of trampolines. Which we visited this morning and had a blast as usual.
We're getting back into making our own bread now that we are finally settled into the house and will be purchasing a meat slicer soon since it is much cheaper buying a big ham and slicing it ourselves.
We sadly re homed our cats to a wonderful family with a little girl. Their cat passed away four months ago and their little girl kept asking "where's the kitty?" So when they went to adopt another cat from the spca they wouldn't allow them to because they had children. Since our cats have been around Paisley we had no fear in letting them go to the family and they were wonderful. We had to drive an hour to do it but found an awesome indoor playground in Woodbury that was fake cliffs and tunnels and huge trees with slides. It was amazing and we wore Paisley out! It's almost been much easier now that we don't have to worry about if the dogs are eating the cat food or when the last time we changed the litter and we knew they were with a nice family so I didn't cry like a baby like I thought I would. Very Peaceful.
I joined the MOMS Club and it's been nice getting out of the house and engaging in adult conversation while Paisley has other kids to play with. We have a party tomorrow night so I'll be cooking up something good tomorrow and get to enjoy the night with good friends I've made. Looking forward to it.
So I'm pretty sure I'm caught up now hopefully I can keep this up!
