Another Midweek Confessions Post
Well, it's Wednesday (just barely). You know what that means:
- It is 9PM. I've been carrying around a little blue post-it with "key words" to help me remember my confessions since Monday; and now I've almost missed stinkin' "midweek." I'm a bum.
- Daylight Savings is KILLING me. Just when I thought I might actually be getting up more than 30 minutes before I'm supposed to be at work - we lose an hour and it is still dark at 7AM. My quest to meet the early morning hours peacefully is hopeless.
- To me, Pie Day is the day in which students bring pies (and other round deliciousness) to their math classes and the leftovers end up in the teacher's lounge - because one pie per person is a bit too much, even for teenage boys. It is one of my favorite holidays.
- I don't actually enjoy hiking. (I admitted this once to a close group of friends, and it didn't go over well. Please don't stone me.) I like the idea of hiking. I like telling people I went hiking and taking pictures of myself hiking (usually at the very beginning before I start POURING sweat); but the actual hike - miserable. Every time I go I'm reminded why it had been so long since the last time.
- Yesterday morning a co-worker pointed out to me that I had "something on my shoulder." This "something" turned out to be MASSIVE baby puke/spit-up/whathaveyou ALL over me. I basically looked like a Bald Eagle had pooped on me, and I smelled like a big bowl of cottage cheese. The worst part? I didn't even notice. I'm clean classy like that.
- I quite like pulling out the clothes I bought this time last year when I was a bit pregnant. They just "swallow me up" now, and I feel all kinds of skinny. Nevermind that some are maternity and the rest two sizes bigger than I usually wear. Minor detail. (Prayers for the coming months when I run out of these kind of clothes and actually have to go back to the ones purchased TWO summers ago. Itsnotgoingtobepretty.)
That's all I've got today. I'm tired and grumpy - I guess that's another one.
If you link-up it'll make me smile...

Random Monday Thoughts
Hi friends! Hope you all had a great weekend. I had one of the best I've had in a while -- nothing special, in particular, but I think that's what made it so good. We had no real plans so we just enjoyed time drinking coffee in bed, watching Sam "get ready" to crawl, visiting with relatives and friends, shopping, hiking, and eating lots of delicious food. Did I mention it was also over 70 degrees both days? Honestly, it was one of those weekends Jeff and I were fantasizing about this time last year. Good stuff.
Anyways, just some random things today...
- First, would you please look at this little stud? He went on his first hike yesterday. His dad was a champ and carried all 20+ pounds of him up the side of a mountain. Yes, those are FLAMES on his sunglasses. Yes, I realize that allowing him to wear sunglasses with flames and a camo hat completely goes against everything I said in this post --- but they were a gift, and he can't be a prep all the time. WhatcanIsay? :)
- My mom and I went to the mall on Saturday for a little bit and I thought I should probably pass this along... There are some GREAT deals at Old Navy right now on all of the bright color-blocking trends out there right now. I bought a great dress for a wedding coming up in May. It is hot pink and orange, and I am OBSESSED with it. (Unfortunately, it isn't online so... You'll have to wait to see photos from the wedding.) They also have skinny jeans in LOTS of fun colors on sale right now for $25.00. I'm not usually a fan of Old Navy, but they got it right this season. If you are looking to update your wardrobe a little without breaking the bank, you might just be in luck! (And, um, no... Old Navy is NOT paying me to say this. Obvious, but it must be said.)

| A few of my favorites |
- I'm already preparing for The Bachelor finale tonight. (And by preparing, I mean I saved all my laundry to wash/dry/fold/and put-away from 8 - 10 tonight.) I'm rooting for Lindzi; but, I honestly don't like Ben that much so... I'm just watching for the gowns and drama. Are you watching? How do you feel about Emily being the next Bachelorette? I think she is beautiful and I liked her a lot in Jake's season; but, I'll be honest, I kind-of feel like she already had her chance and flaked out. Am I alone here? I mean, of course I'll still watch, but she's got some convincing to do.

- Jeff and I are going to see Elton John in concert on Thursday night. I'm pretty darn excited. Have any of you ever seen him live?

- And, um, there will be no "12 in 12" update today; basically because I have absolutely NOTHING to report. I've been a bum the last 300 30 days so... Here's to the next go around!
Coming up this week:
Sam's EIGHT MONTH update,
Even more Midweek Confessions.
My Baby Registry Checklist.
and more.
Have a good one!
