I am back. Maybe for good, maybe not. Life is busy, what can I say.
There is a LOT to fill you in on.
1. I wish I looked as good in a side pony as Fi does. It starts as just a regular center pony on top of her head but by the end of the day it has almost always danced it's way to the side. I like to think of it as a pony with attitude.
2. I almost always smell like some kind of baby food. It's a miracle Jamie still loves me. Mostly because some of her baby food is meat...so sometimes I smell like pureed chicken. Hot.
Alright, so I'll explain that second one. When I heat up her baby food I like to check in on my wrist to make sure it isn't too hot. I wash this off of course, but still...it's like applying chicken perfume. I also am a very messy feeder. I spill stuff on my pants, socks, shirt, hands....and sometimes it ends up in my hair. I am basically disgusting. I think I hide it well, but you can be the judge next time you see me.
In other news, Fi is quickly approaching her first birthday. Yikes! Who can believe it's almost been a year!? AND THAT MEANS IT'S ALMOST THE HOLIDAYS!! WHATTT!? Psh...I bought my first Christmas present yesterday and I am proud. Too early? I'll laugh in your face when you are shopping online 3 days before Christmas Day. I say that with love.
Ok, so in the last few months, we have done a lot of fun FUN things.
We took Fiona to the zoo! She fell asleep about halfway through and pretty much only enjoyed the fish and the waterfall as far as I can tell, but still...J and I had a freaking blast.
We also did a lot of pool time this summer-we sat in that pee-filled baby pool together and she splashed and giggled and loved it. Oh, and mamma got a bit of a tan...it's a win-win.
This fall she has become our little football fan and she has of course been helping us cheer on our Hawkeyes! Don't you worry, we have documented her in her Hawk gear so you can see her in all her glory.
Alright, well I'm off. You know, to ponder what the theme will be of her big first birthday. More to come!!
