ITS FRIDAY!!!!!!!

Yay.....I'm so glad today is Friday. I'm so looking forward to the weekend to do whatever..or maybe nothing. I know that I'll get to spend all my time with Nina, I miss her so much during the week. It always feels like our time is rushed once I pick her up in the evening. My plans for this evening is to get some cleaning done around the house. I feel like I'm neglecting my house but I just don't have the time to stay up on it like I used too.

I've decided to stay at my house for another 3-4 years. I figure I do some improvements/changes to the house and in the next few years, I can buy a bigger home with a big yard so Nina can get a fly swingset. I'm in the process of doing my office over & switching Nina's nursery to the bigger room. Everyone suggested I do that first but I wasn't hearing it, plus I was pregnant and the thought of switching those rooms over was overwhelming. So now I'm going to switch her to the bigger room so she can have more space once she starts getting around & all. I'm kina anxious to get it done now so I can finishing getting the rest of her pictures hung up and have some more room for all her stuff.

Ramblin:
I'm so sleepy; I have 1 more hour before I can go home; I want 2 cookies from Au Bon Pain; I'm praying that my bus is on time today so I can get home at a decent time; my desk is a mess and I think I'm gonna keep it this way until Monday(triflin); my calender for the summer is filling up with so many things to do & places to go; I'm so happy to be able to visit people so they can see Nina; I will be glad when this weather decideds what it really wants to do; I can't wait to hear how Cyrus trip to the zoo went; I love my nephew, he's the sweetest little boy; I'm wondering if I'll get a niece or a nephew this time around; I can't stop yawning; I can't wait to get home; me & Nina's godmother are going to the new Whole Foods 2morrow & I can't wait; I hope it doesn't rain; I got a new purse yesterday & it is so hot; I wanna go shopping but I don't know what I want....TGIF!!!

MY 1st Mother's Day!!!!

This is surreal...I'm a mommy. It all became real when my phone starting ringing at 6am and my Blackberry was going crazy with messages. I was like, WOW...today is about me and not only do I celebrate my mom, I'm celebrated as well. Nina & Will got me the nicest cards and my new washer & dryer will be coming soon-YEAH!!!! My sister & I prepared breakfast for mom & Ganny and then Will, Nina & I went to Georgetown for the day. The weather was beautiful and people were everywhere. We also went to the NAtional HArbor and then we went to visit his mother to give her gifts and let her spend some time with Nina. I wasnt trying to deal with the crowded restaurants but we did get to Stoney River Steakhouse later that evening with no problem. The food was fantastic as usual and I was tired. It was a full day but a very special one.

I thank God for allowing me to be able to be a mommy...its one of the best things I've ever done. I'm also thankful for Will being a great Daddy and being so hands-on helping me to raise Nina. I can't thank him enough for all that he does to make me & Nina's life so sweet. I'm most thankful for the most precious baby, Ms. Nina Nicole. She had to fight so early on in her life and that proves to me that she is truly destined for greatness. I couldn't stop thanking her enough for fighting so hard in her early months...I wouldn't be celebrating Mother's Day if she wasn't such a fighter so she's to be celebrated as well. SO now I'm looking forward to celebrating Father's Day, a holiday that I never celebrated but now I have a reason to do so.

I'm still smiling...it was a good day!!!!

Where Did the Weekend Go????

Its Monday already, I can't believe the weekend is over. I was looking forward to my weekend to spend with Nina and to get some rest...I did both of those things but it just went by so fast. Friday, Mom came over to spend some time with Nina and I did hair. Nina & got to bed around 11ish. Woke up Saturday morning and I held Nina all morning. I missed her this week since I went back to work and I know she's used to having me hold her so, that will be her treat on the weekends. We did absolutely nothing. Nellie came up to visit on Saturday amd my grandmother came over for a few as well. Will came down Saturday afternoon and we jusut chilled. Its funny how we always had something to do but now that Nina is here, chilling in the house is sufficient. Wanted to go to church on Sunday but the nasty weather kept me in. I didn't want to take Nina out in the mess. Watched Cy for Nikki while she went to church and me, Will & Nina laid around for the rest of the day. Did get a chance to wash some clothes, cook dinner & give Nina a bath.

Overall, I didn't do anything this weekend, but that was my plan anyway. I'm back to work for a full week and I'm tired yet thankful to have a job and to be able to live a comfortable lifestyle. Looking forward to my upcoming long weekend & my first Mother's Day. It feels so funny to be saying that I'm a mother but I'm loving it. Don't have any plans for the weekend but I'm looking forward to spending time with Nina and doing whatever it is I want to do.
