Another cuddling picture, but heck it's cold outside!

Love this, inspired.

 

Happy Weekend!

We've been doing a lot of cuddling in these cold temperatures. 

Winter is too cold, come on Spring!

Emmy Shoes

I go wit you, I get Emmy shoes none!

 

God love her.

 

And she did just that with no help.  Such a big girl.

Oh Minecraft, I find you weird but my daughter loves it...so I tolerate it. 

My talented friend Leah made this hat for me and Elly loves it. 

 

Stop growing too!

Poor Sweet Emmy

Is down with an ear infection.  I've never seen a toddler want to sleep so much and be so miserable.

My heart broke.

Sunday she was feeling a little better, but the fever is just being a butt and not breaking.

 

I hoped with tubes we'd never hear the word ear infection again but I was wrong.

 

Iy yi yi!

Obsessed

Good golly she loves Frozen!

Let's Talk Mommy Wars

My Emmy, almost three years old.  F.O.R.W.A.R.D facing in her car seat. 

I've had a few gentle messages telling me that Emmy should still be rear facing.  Not to get too lengthy but it's a decision that Jon, Dr. Weber (pediatrician), Dr. Google (ha) and I made.  Know that I did my research and around her second birthday asked at her well baby visit my doctors thoughts on the extended rear facing debate.  We felt it best so the switch was made.  Emmy is a more petite child, she does meet the requirements with the manufacture.  Know that no one on this planet loves this little girl more than her mother. 

Love her outfit, yes? 

Mommy wars are in full swings ev-er-y  d-ay with which way is best.  Here's a well written article:

Mommy Wars

Instead of tearing other Mom's down, let's build each other up.  Instead of saying OMG you're doing this wrong you should do it my way...say hey I do it this way, why do you do it that way?  Ask before you assume.  Being a parent is hard enough, stop judging!  Every one is different, what works for me may not work for you and you know what...it's okay!!!  I may not agree with how you do things, but hey it works for you!  You're doing a great job and I am too!  Love more and judge less.

When all else fails, if you can't say something nice...don't say anything at all. 



Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! 

 

I'll be honest yesterday was rough, we let Em stay up and she woke up so early still.  I was exhausted all day.  Back to work today and then the weekend.  Wee!

My resolution this year is to drink more water.  What's yours?
