a new first and other random thoughts

i've experienced a new first. i started developing what i think is just a cold or an ear infection this weekend and that's the first time i've been sick with a baby. no extra sleep, no calling in sick, no additional rest. it's fun being a mom. plus i am getting really bogged down with school stuff to do and only two days to do it in. agh.

anyway, i had this conversation with my little one this morning...

"mommy doesn't want to go to work."

"oooooooohhhhhhh...ieeeeeeeee.....ieeeEEEEEE!"

"mommy doesn't feel good."

"aaaahhhhhhhh....bbbbbuuuhhhhhh"

"shh. mommy's head hurts."

"EEEEEE!"

"why thank you."

"uh... uh... uh... uh... pppffffftttt"

"don't you want to lay here with mommy?"

"puh... puh... puh." [kick, kick, kick and wiggle to get away.]

and every time i blow my nose she gets the funniest expression on her face. her eyes open up wide and she cranes her neck to see me because she can't figure out why i'm making such funny noises. she is also enjoying grabbing at my nose and trying to squish the snot out of it.

i switched her to 6 - 9 month clothes (and left a few of the big 3 - 6 month ones) this weekend. and she's not quite 5 months old yet! if only she wasn't such a porker!

this week i'm all about convenience. we're trying the Lowe's Food To Go program. it's where you order your groceries online and then pay a small convenience charge to have them ready for you to go pick up at the time you designate. i'll let you know how it goes, but i'm definitely thinking that the "small convenience fee" will be worth the... well, convenience.
