the past week...

It has been a very cool week. Work has been busy, and keeps me occupied, home is very busy with the baby needing attention, daddy needing attention, and doggie needing attention. I have learned that any "free" time I may get, I get that much more done. I took the dog for a walk and got the dishes/laundry caught up in one hour!

Friday I went to the doctors. I was a little worried that I would get hollered at because the one medicine I was on had run out and they wouldn't refill it unless I made an appt to come in to see the doctor. Being a new mom, I don't have a ton of free time, so...3 weeks went by without taking the medicine, just the one I did have. The doctor decreased my meds since it was down without taking the other one. yea!!! I think a lot of it has to do with losing 40 lbs since I had Sierra, don't need as high of a dose.

Saturday, we went to Olive Garden to celebrate our Anniversary, it was the 7th but we waited for Steve's mom to start feeling better before we took her/them up on their offer to babysit while we went. While we were gone, and then again when we got back...Sierra said HI! :) ooh ee! Melt my heart.

Sierra is growing very quickly. We gave her a little cereal to try this weekend, she didn't seem to like it all that much and spit most of it out, but she sits up and eats off a spoon very well!

I think that's about it for now....

Grey day....

Today marks 3 months since I had our Sweet Sierra. She has been changing
so much lately and I love watching her watch her Daddy, kick her arms and legs in excitement once she finds out one of us is in the room. She has been giggling, cooing, baby talk, smiling a ton. I am totally soaking it all in.

She is really a great baby and sure she's fussy and cries when she doesn't get what she wants/needs when she thinks she should. We will forever be changed since she was born. Just like...when Junior was born, but swiftly taken from us to live with Jesus when I was just 7 months pregnant on April 3, 2009. We are forever changed.

We just need to keep in mind, like my Dad recently reminded me - that Sierra wouldn't be here if Junior was alive. So now, we will get to see both of them together when we all get to Heaven. (What a great song that is).

I love getting to see Sierra grow up, and it's fun to look forward to what she will do next. While trying to always stay one step ahead.
I am trying to get organized again as things got left by the wayside once she was born and put on the back burner for a later date.
It's a grey day here today. I have happy thoughts and sad thoughts on my mind today. The weather plays a lot on my moods you will find.
