Things Don't Always Go as Planned

Like this blog, I'm such a fail.

Half a Year and Such!

February 25th, 2011

 

Love this little boy more than life its self!



Relentless

Some days it feels like I'm never going to get break. Bad things just keep happening, throwing themselves in front of me, refusing to be ingored. I'll admit that I'm the first one to tell someone to keep their chin up, it's not always as easy to take your own advice. Some day I'll catch and break, and all the trials and tribulations that I'm going through now will have payed off. I'll be a stronger person for all of this, right? If I keep telling myself it over and over again, I may some day start to believe it.

Life is just so, relentless.



Oh a little baby for the day. :) This is what I wake up to every morning, him peeping over the edge staring at me. Today I woke up to him standing, holding onto the edge of the crib though. Different story, different day!

The Things I Do

Oh the things I do, one of which is not apparently this blog. I've been computerless, which sucks, for weeks now. I've gone through withdrawls, and then gone through them again. As soon as it's back up and running I pinky promise, kiss-of-death, that I'll keep up with this. At least keep up with it as best that I can! Between going to school full-time, taking care of a very active teething 6 month old, I barely have time to breath.

Speaking of school, I'm almost halfway done with this semester! Yes! This means I only have 1.5years left of school, which in my melodramatic mind is, FOREVER! I'm almost tempted to set up a ticker just to remind how much little time is actually left. Then I remember during my pregnancy how that little number changed sooo slowly, I won't do that to my self again. :)

Gavin turned 6 months on the 25th last month. I can't believe my tiny baby boy is half a year old already; where did the time go? He has two teeth coming in on the bottom, is so close to crawling it's ridicules. At this point I think he's just taunting us, "Watch me Mom! Haha. You thought I was going to do it that time didn't you?!". Love him, but he's such a turd. His newest thing is going from a crawling position up onto his head and tip toes. Don't ask me why, I would pay millions to just dip inside that brain for couple seconds to see what he is actually thinking! He also goes from a crawling position to a sittiing position. No idea how he figured that one out either. He was on all fours, I blinked, he was on his butt. Child of mine, please stop growing up so quickly, it's breaking Mommy's heart.

It's Brand New

Apparently I'm terrible at keeping up with this, when I lay down at the end of the night I'm always reminding myself to go blog, but I never muster up the energy to do it. I'd rather spend my downtime talking to a fabulous group of ladies I've met and fell in love with than sitting here talking to myself.

Well here's a new year and a new list of goals and what not I would like to meet. I usually end up failing on half on them, but if I didn't try at first then there wasn't ever the possibility of achieving any of them. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself so I don't feel like a total failure. I'm always striving to be a better person and mommy, hopefully that's one goal I don't fail at. School is a big one, I wish I could be done with it this year, there isn't any way that it'll happen though. I have at least two more years, and it's killing me. I just want to be able to support G and I by myself, be able to spend money on him buying useless toys and stuff. I think every mommy should be able to do that, buy things for their child beyond food and diapers. I want to spoil him, I don't think this is to much to ask.

I just realized for the first time today that it's 1/1/11. I love that I'm so random, this blog is so completely random. Filled with useless and uninteresting tidbits of random stuff. Hopefully one day I don't look back and think I was a total moron! Haha.

G's newest thing is grabbing his leg and pulling his foot up to his face to try and eat his feet, it cracks me up. He gets so excited to see me that he screams now, it's seriously amazing. Hes begun to laugh for other people besides me, along with not wanting anyone else but me. Give and take I guess. I told him this year is brand new, just like him. I'm pretty sure he just rolled his eyes at me and said "I'm not brand new mom, I'm four months old." ... What was I thinking, he's a biggy boy now!



New things and such!

G discovered his bottom lip today, better late than never! He's found his feet, his hands, and everything else in between. Just not the one thing right below his nose! He's so funny, he'll suck it in and make so many different noises, It honestly sounds like he's beat boxing. My brother and I were sitting on the couch with him tonight and he was seriously making us laugh so hard we were crying.

 I LOVE IT!!

He laughed last night for the first time, not his little chuckles, a full out belly laugh. It's the best sound I've ever heard in my entire life. I found out today that if we play peek-a-boo he laughs up a storm. Needless to say, we will be playing it quite often. He always tries to pull my hand off of my face while we're playing, like, where did my mom go!? :)

My best friend and I went to Olive Garden tonight, I always forget a bib when I go anywhere, and his shirt always looks like he spilt an entire glass of water down the front of it!

Check out that drool!
