Birthday's, holidays and too much fun

Gabby's almost 14 months old.  She's a cautious walker and a crazy climber.  She'll climb on the counter, chair, bed, table wherever as long as its up high! Ha! What's funny is that she takes 3-5 steps walking and she's down crawling.  She's still nursing morning and night and I'm thinking we will keep this up throughout the school year.  I like knowing that she's getting my antibodies and she loves it!  She also loves sleeping on my chest.  In the morning when she's dine nursing she forces herself on me and snuggles up until its time to get up for the day.  She dies the same thing at night.  I love it!  There's nothing like having your baby smuggled up close. We had some close friends over for her party and everyone ohhed and awed at her while we sang happy birthday it was pretty sweet as she stared as everyone sang <3.

Gwyneth started school a couple weeks ago and she just turned 6!  Can you believe it!!  It still amazes me his much she's grown.  She's doing marathon club at school, can sight read several words, she's writing letters to friends.  Speaking of.  There are two sweet boys in her class that she really enjoys playing with.  Donnie and Bo.  It was really sweet because I got to meet Bo's mom just last week and finally put some faces to names.  Gwyn loves school do much she has told me that she surges she was at school in the weekend! I lived school as a kid too so I get it.  Next week we are doing a big party for Genus birthday with her close friends.  I'm looking forward to celebrating this girl and spiking her rotten!

20th Anniversary

Crazy to think it's been 20 years since we said our vows on that stormy rainy day in March.  This year we had plans to get a hotel in Lynnwood and galavant around Seattle for a few days. We ended up going to Herb Niemans on our anniversary, then to Boundary Bay for lunch the next day and we finished our anniversary weekend kidless in lynden. Amy & Bri ended up coming up and spending two days with mom. Saturday we left for the dahlia tuber sale then to El Suentio Brewery for lunch, a brisk walk in the cold wind out at birch bay and then a drink @ The Mill and dinner at Nami sushi. Our anniversary was filled with love and togetherness. We are so spoiled.

Gestational diabetes

Two weeks ago I took the one hour glucose test and failed it so I had to go due the dreaded 3 hour fasting glucose test.  It's horribly awful. You drink 100 milligrams of sugar on a fasting stomach and then get poked times to test you blood glucose levels.  Since I was positive for GD with Gwyn I went straight to the 3 hour test with Gabby and passed!  I was feeling pretty confident that I'd pass this time and I DID hallelujah!  All my numbers came back within range. I'm still keeping a close eye on my carb/sugar intake as I know how that can pack on the pounds for both baby and me.  So far I'm up 8 pounds. I was hoping to only gain ten thus whole pregnancy and that's still my goal.  I was 10 lbs heavier than I was when I got pregnant with Gabby and I gained 20 lbs with her so I figure that it's only appropriate that I keep my total gain to ten.  MUST KEEP COUNTING CALORIES. Ugh.  I don't find it easy like other women to loose wait after baby. If ...

Down time

All my life I've kept busy. I'm a busy person. I feel more at peace when I'm busy. The one downside to the consitency that is busyness is that often random thoughts will enter my mind about projects, bills, fundraisers, events, aka..other things I could be doing with my time. As quickly as I think of the ideas its on it's way to lala land....I started keeping a journal when I was in college so that whenever one of those ideas would enter my mind I could capture it. My "to do" journal is full of these fun ideas. Right now in my life I have a whole lot of free time that I don't know what to do with and where or where could my journal be...??? I can't find it. I feel lost without it. I have all this time now and I don't know what to do with myself. Before I know it I will be so busy with the agency I wont even have time to write. So I sit here (keeping myself busy) hoping that some of those glorious thoughts will enter my mind. Once I re...
