Let it snow let it snow let it snow :)

Mady likes to pose for pictures a little more now adays :) she is so beautiful :) I find myself being very giddy this time of year especially when i spend time with family or when i sit by a fire or a portable heater in my case and watch the snow fall slowly past my window. i don't really know what it is about this time of year but it makes me feel like i do when I'm in Disneyland (although that hasn't happened for a while). Anyways i have decided that my life is a little dull although i may not think so :) we have watched a new movie every night we had free time this week. The first of them being Julie and Julia and i absolutely loved it. And it has quite inspired me. I have decided (if finances willing) which i doubt they will but I'm going to try to cook my way through a cookbook of my choice and i will not skip any recipe or change it. This will force me to try and cook new things and try new things as well :) and guess what? you get to read every detail and experience i have with it... aren't you excited? granted there are about only 4 people who may read my blog but it's mostly for me so ya.... :) well we will see how it goes :) have a merry snowy Sunday :)

A little of late...

SO this may be a long one... I meant to write earlier but then i made the mistake of reading Stacie's blog... and it made me all nervouse... she is way to talented at writing blog i think you should make it your profession :) well anyways. This is what hase been going on with us...
John: John is always gone now adays. He works sunday night from 2-10 then has school at 11-2. at least i get that evening with him. He is gone tuesday and wednesday from 10-2 and then works from 3-11:30. There is about one week left of school and i can't wait! he is trying to quite his job and find a new one so he can have better hours. We will be taking a pay cut but i am willing to clip coupons for food if it means i get more time with him! :) John graduates in april and we couldn't be happier:)
Me: I don't have too much new. just sick of being fat so i'm excersicing (Its so hard i can't even spell it!) and loving up on my little tiny girl. Cooking for my husband when he is home and starting on mady's baby book. I'm totally ready for christmas and can't be any more excited! I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!! :) too bad my husband won't be with me for a bit of it. John will be going to his house in washinton without me and mady for a few days after christmas. I don't want to take mady because flying is a horrible option if i want to keep a healthy little one. ANd i would drive but it is a dangerous drive in the snow not to mention 14 hours with a girl who hates to be in a car. So we will all go down in the summer. John isn't too happy i'm not going and i'm sad he won't be with me but i'm a overprotective mother and my baby isn't even 6 months old yet! next year...
Madylena: HOly cow i never knew someone so small could grow so fast! she will finally take a bottle every once in a while and loves to eat like a big girl in her high chair. SHe loves squash, and whip cream and i'm sure anthing else i will give her. We will try more and more :) SHe loves to talk and scream :)she entertains anyone around her :)... she loves to roll around and is so close to rolling over onto her tummy! :) i'm pretty sure she is teething because she drools like crazy and bites anything and everything she can get her hands on... so fun :)she will finally go down for a nap without us rocking her and sometimes sleeps really good at night. When it's dads turn at night she sleeps almost clear through but when it's mommas turn she decides to be up all night... i guess it will be dads turn every night :) hehe
I'm loving the snow and love the christmas season hope you all are having a good week!
