Brain Dump

This morning I put Landon in his pack n play so I could shower. Jeff was still in bed half awake. He's getting over a cold so I wanted him to sleep more, hence putting L in the pNp. I got out of the shower and both of my boys were passed out lol. Happy Sunday to me!

I am doing everything I can to get this house ready to sell. I have a good 10 bags of clothes and shoes to donate later this week. Most of it is my stuff and I have so much because a lot of things don't fit right anymore. I am 10 lbs thinner than I was pre-pregnancy, but a lot of my shirts are way too short now because my girls grew from breastfeeding. I already have a long torso, so if something shrinks or I gain a little weight, forget it. The big stuff like cleaning out the basement, and hiring painters and floor people needs to be done by Jeff. I don't know good prices and all the crap in the basement is his. I don't know what to keep or toss, and I tend to want to toss everything. Jeff is more of a hoarder like his mother.

I'm 1/4 Irish and I couldn't care less about St. Patrick's Day. I dressed L up because I do for every holiday and we all wore green, but that's the extent of my celebration of that holiday. We're typically on vacation during it and I've been in both Disney and Vegas for St. Patty's Day, but we never get crazy.

I'm starting to hate putting L in onesies as his "shirt". I prefer him in t-shirts (with a onesie underneath for some warmth) and pants. He looks like such a little boy instead of a baby that way and even though it makes me sad that he's growing up so fast, I don't like dressing him like a little baby anymore because he's not.

We had to lower Landon's crib mattress today. He can pull himself up to stand, and since he's tall it's now a safety issue.

I just ordered the invitations for Landon's 1st birthday party. OMG! I basically know exactly what I want to buy, but I need to wait for RSVPs so I know exactly how much stuff to get.

It's gorgeous outside! I loved this mild winter we had and now we're having warm spring temperatures. It's been wonderful to go for walks (we're going for one later) and taking Landon to the park and getting some fresh air.

I really miss being pregnant, feeling my baby move inside of me, and having a cute belly. I do not want another child for a few more years though and nothing will change my mind on that.

Jeff wants me to get a minivan. As practical as it would be, I just can't do it. I want a Sequoia or Acadia. I don't care that they're worse on gas mileage, they're badass and I wouldn't be embarrassed to drive them. No offense to anyone who drive a minivan, they're just not for me.

Smart Ones rigatoni in vodka sauce and Lean Cuisine 5 cheese rigatoni are absolutely delicious. I feel like I'm being "bad" by eating them. I need help with portion control, so these are great for me.

I love that we can basically give Landon any food that we're eating (with a few exceptions like nuts, chocolate, honey, etc.) He loves feeding himself and I have to buy less baby food. He is such a good eater.

I feel much more organized when I menu plan for the week, but I rarely do it. Makes a lot of sense, right?

I need to take Landon to go visit where I used to work. Former students that are still there and my old co-workers are asking, so I need to make it happen after their spring break.

I'm starting to like running and look forward to my workouts. Thanks Couch To 5K and having a treadmill in my house! I feel so much better both physically and emotionally. I love how my clothes fit too :)

I am dying to see The Hunger Games movie. Jeff has no desire to go. Thank goodness a lot of my friends want to go so I have people to see it with.

I am so sick of the Kardashians, but I still watch Khloe and Lamar.

I can totally relate to your husband being half asleep since I still have this lingering cough/cold thing. It sucks.

Ugh, I wish I could start to like working out but I don't. It's awful haha. Meal planning...that's what I need to work on!
