Awful:
MJ's first time not feeling well, I dropped her off at my parents and she cried for an hour (tummy ache) poor girl. and my poor mom!
Running out of foundation, and being the cheapskate I am I've been using one of those foundation sticks that are ment to cover just spots. I'm going through foundation faster than normal because of my awesome post pregnancy skin.
Finding out I can't have any face peels till after I'm done nursing MJ. dangit.
Combing through my hair after showering and seeing CLUMPS fall out! I know it's normal after not loosing a hair for 9 months of pregnancy but STILL...
Awesome:
4 days off from work this week! But as you moms know we never get a day off so when I'm not at the salon I'm home doing laundry, cleaning, organizing. I still have lots to do!!
Visiting my favorite neighbors from my old neighborhood.
Getting a cute St. Patti's outfit for MJ and used a 20% off coupon. boo yah.
Loving this beautiful weather out! I'm not going to complain I love this lack of winter we had this year.
Renting 'The Help' yeah I party hard on Friday nights.

My baby is 3 months!
My little babe is growing up so quickly, She is 3 months today! So naturally we had to play dress ups and do a photo shoot today. We sure love this sweet little petite thing.
She has recently found her hands and is always sucking on them
She wimpers and cries when she needs her diaper changed. Hopefully she'll be easy to potty train when that time comes!
Can grasp her rattle
Loves bath time
Hates getting dressed and undressed.
Always sleeps with her hands by her face
Loves being read to
She's a social baby, loves being around people and will smile at anyone
She used to be a great sleeper, but now has decided that sleeping 6 hours through the night is too long..so now it's back to every 3 hours
She knows how to use her voice! she coos a lot these days, we can't get enough of her.
Some one got a bumbo! She loves sitting in it, nice change of scenery instead
of laying on her back or tummy all the time.

Awful:
Pumping milk in the car. in the middle of the day. (No I wasn't driving, Ryan was) Oh the fabulous moments moms have :)
THREE blowouts one right after the other. Who knew newborn diapers are like clothes; different brands are different sizes. The Huggies nb diapers are way tiny now but the Walmart nb brand fit just fine!
And then for kicks and giggles I just tried on a size 1 diaper today to see how big they would be on her still...nope they fit like a gem! I can't say I have a newborn anymore .. stop growing so fast!
Waking up while nursing in the middle of the night... How long was I out for? yay for a kinked neck
Finding food in the very back of the fridge on the bottom shelf that had been forgotten... mmm yummy moldy food anyone?
Awesome:
Two days off in a row from work! Slept in on the first one and got lots of laundry and cleaning done both days.
MJ is ''talking'' more and it just cracks Ryan and I up. Her high squeaks are pretty much the cutest thing ever.
An attempt to cut side bangs became way too short and about to be awful...but after blow drying and see that they lay perfectly as straight across bangs...awesome! Think Anne Hathaway in ''The Devil Wears Prada."
Valentines Day! Nothing like coming home to love notes all around our home, a nap with my little valentine and a heart shaped pizza with the husband. Going out on this holiday is over rated. I loved staying home this year!

Valentines Day
I am one of those cheesy people who loves Valentines Day, I can hear my sister barfing right now (as she wrote on her blog today she's the grinch of Valentines) So when I came home from work today I was giddy as I saw this is on our front door.
They were all over the place! Here are just a few to share
Here is our cute little Valentines with her gifts from Granny I mean cupid ;)
Each year on Valentines there is a knock at the door with gifts and treats.
Mary got a cute card with wrist rattles and Ryan and I got a heart shaped pizza
and yummy home made pretzel chocolate/caramel treats.

Awful-
Not blogging all week till now, oops!
Going back to work, it is so hard and I hate being away from MJ but it's good to be working for many reasons. i.e earn some money for our family again, doing some thing I enjoy and working with great girls.
Spending my day off being insanely sick.
Finding out I accidentally threw in MJ's white cardigan in the wash with the red towel... *face palm. Time to get some bleach!
Our dishwasher no longer really washes, more so leaves soap residue every where. BUT thanks to Pinterest I found THIS blog and will be crossing my fingers that it really does the trick.
Leaving it to the last minutes to prepare my talk for Sunday. I have said it before and I'll say it again I hate speaking in public. I sound like I'm about to cry any second which I usually end up doing anyways, my hands get all sweaty, my heart races, I say ''um'' about a million times. How about I just introduce us to the ward than give Ryan the rest of the time. He would seriously LOVE that, he would speak all 3 hours if he could. no joke.
Awesome-
It was fun to be back at work to see my co workers. In the hair business it's rough finding a salon that is drama free.
Ryan took the day off to take care of MJ so I could sleep all day and not worry about getting her sick.
Girls night at Kara's making Valentines treats. Chocolate covered pretzels? delish!
Shopping at Naartije and getting a few clearance items. If I could afford to shop there all the time I totally would, their clothes are so stinking cute!
Mary. yeah she's pretty awesome just being herself. She can't even talk and she makes me laugh so hard. I love that girl to pieces.

Awful:
Going to the dermatologist and still getting no answers about her possible hemangioma. We still have to play the waiting game, in 8 weeks when we go back if it has grown they will need to take tests on it and see what it is exactly. *Please don't grow any bigger!
Baby blow outs at the mall..
Having a pity party for myself due to pizza face and after pregnancy body. Why can't I be one of the small percentage that bounce back. I saw 2 girls at a friends baby shower that had a baby 2 months ago and 2 weeks ago. They sure don't look it!
Hearing from a friend who lost her baby girl a little more half way through her pregnancy. I kicked myself for feeling so bad about myself before. I'll never complain about my post pregnant body again.
Getting peed on just before bath time and looking at her face smiling as though she's thinking ''Haha I'm so funny, and so cute so you can't get mad in the least bit.'' It's true I can't help but laugh when she spits up on me, pees or anything. (For now)
My last weekend being a stay at home mom. Too bad we aren't like Canada and have maternity leave last a year and it's paid!
Awesome:
MJ's eyes look like they are going green like mine!
Work begins again Monday and couldn't start at a better time
Valentines! I'm a sucker for this holiday I love February and decorating our home
Grateful to have family close by and be able to visit often.
Rocking my sweet girl to sleep, I know I'll miss those moments when she is grown.
Nothing better than driving behind a senior... The yellow light means slow down not slam on your breaks. And yes those are orange traffic cones 2 feet in front of you so you might want to get out of the way a little sooner so you don't hit them.
Happy weekend!!
