I havent' done a TOP TEN for a while now, and although I don't really know what the heck to say, I figured I would benefit from a little optimism ahora.
So, here goes.
1. This morning I slept in until 8:00! Nice, right? How many people with a kid get to do that?? Or people in general, for that matter? Probably not many. I am pretty lucky.
2. I am not a cook. Like, AT ALL. However, I am a good baker. I can make killer lemon bars, scones, cake/cupcakes, aebelskivers, and cookies.
3. I have a car that runs well, fits all my crap, and ain't too shabby. I am pretty lucky.
4. I was off doing something a week or two ago when Jane came running up to me to tell me "Mom! C'mon, fouw me! C'mon Mom!" "c'mon". She proceed to lead me, holding hands and glancing over her shoulder to make sure I was following her the whole way, into the living room. She had set two placesettings for a fantastically fat-free (albeit imaginary) meal for the two of us. So stinkin' sweet!
5. Another cute jane story: check out how she was pushing around her baby stroller the other day: while riding on her Hover-Round: the surfer dude-speaking turtle rider.
6. MOPS. Mothers of Preschoolers. I desperately need an outlet like this (time to just hang out with other mamas sans our darling little darlings). I also really thrive in leadership positions (I am a control freak I suppose). I also just love these ladies:
7. I have a "new" house with lots of projects to keep me busy for the next year or twenty.
8. Let's just say it out loud: Jane is adorable. And she is my kid. Lucky me!
9. On thursday we will get a better look at baby #2, and *hopefully* find out if it is a boy baby or a girl baby, and a healthy baby most importantly.
10. I get to eat delicious food nearly every day of the week. Blaine is an excellent cook. If you don't believe me, come over on Thursday night at 6:30. Find out the answer to TOP TEN #9, and eat from a magnificent nacho/taco bar!
Seriously. Quite a charmed life, dont'cha think?
Signed,
Queen Stacey
