Happy Monday! The weekends always fly by, but this weekend went even faster. My man attended a men’s retreat at our church so I was with the kids Friday evening and most of Saturday. We had a nice day, but at 1:00 I realized that I hadn’t had a second to myself yet that day. Nap/quiet time came shortly after that realization!

I have no specific point this post, so bear with me as I ramble.

Baby Girl is definitely getting her own sense of style. A few weeks ago she wore her belt around her head. It was actually pretty stylish. My man liked it so much he let her wear it shopping with him. Her newest style? Mismatched socks. They aren’t identical, but they always match in color scheme. I’m very proud.

For Christmas Baby Girl got a shape activity set. We made the cookies the other day and she had so much fun making things and decorating. I had to help with the icing because it’s hard to get out. But the ideas are all hers. We also made a tree and a house.

I had mom’s group today. I always leave feeling energized! My small group includes such a great bunch of women, who I enjoy laughing with and swapping ideas. Today was no different.

Baby Girl’s birthday is this week. She has a very specific birthday party idea, to which she added a new idea last night. So now I’m praying that our grocery store can decorate the cake to her specifications. If not, I might have to decorate, and it definitely won’t look like she’s dreamed! She did this two days before Christmas, too. “Mama, I really want a watch for Christmas.” “Mama, this is the watch I’ve always wanted.” Thank goodness Big Lots had a $3 Winnie the Pooh watch!

I was asleep before 8:30 last night. I didn’t want to see the Steelers beat the Broncos, so I went to bed. Then the Broncos won in overtime. Ah well, I obviously needed the sleep. Hopefully the Broncos’ luck is done because this weekend they meet my Patriots!

I put together a pretty killer outfit today, and yes, I’m proud of myself. It didn’t involve a t-shirt, which is great (and sort of unusual). It did include my awesome belt that Baby Girl picked out for me for Christmas. I have plans tonight, as an adult without kids, so I’ll probably wear it again tonight! Maybe I’ll even take a picture.

I’m trying to think of other things to write because I don’t want to call the grocery store, do the dishes, fold the laundry, or even get out of my chair!

Hope you’re having a fabulous Monday!
