Brooklynn's hair is long and getting crazy! I don't want to cut it - so today after putting her pony tail in about 20 times and her taking it out and then telling me "on" to put it back in - SUCCESS! She left it in! I think it is too cute in a retro 80's side pony kind of way. The fun of having a little girl!
Yes she did! Brooklynn went pee-pee on her potty! Nick and I are SO EXCITED! We bought her a potty chair a couple weeks ago so that she can get used to it. She is still too little to start potty training (I am going to start in January), but we have been putting her on her potty while we are filling her bath and today she went!!!! Yes we are very excited over a little tinkle!
I wanted to make Brooklynn a cookie trick-or-treat bag since she is going to be cookie monster for Halloween. So I went and bought a sewing machine. I didn't have one and have had to rely on my Mom to sew things for me. I decided it is about time I learn how to sew. I am already done with her cookie "bag." It turned out cute and pretty good for my first sewing project since 7th grade home ecomomics. I now have a new interest in learning how to sew and wish I had the money and time to take sewing classes. I want to be able to make valences and decorative pillows for Brooklynn's big girl room. It will really help save $$$. P.S. I am still going to the gym - I am going 5 times a week and I go super early in the morning so that I am home by the time Brooklynn is up at 8 am. I LOVE IT! I am disappointed that I haven't lost a bunch of weight in the last 2 weeks. I have been working my tail off and really watching what I am eating. I am sure it will start to fall off - I just have to keep plugging away.
In the midst of my anger from my 2nd McCain sign being stolen - I called channel 12 news. They came out and interviewed me yesterday and I was on the 6 o'clock news. Here is a link to it. http://www.wisn.com/video/17651983/
They were here for about 30 minutes and I got 3 seconds of air time....
Those of you who know me - know I am very conservative politically. It is no wonder who I am supporting in this up coming election. Would you believe I have had 2 McCain signs stolen from my front yard! Both have not even made it 24 hours. I am beyond furious! I am all for difference of opinion. If you support Obama - that is your choice - just don't steal my SIGN! If this is what kind of people who are going to vote for Obama, there is no reasoning with them, since they already believe in stealing. Here is something interesting to listen too. Really makes you think. Are we headed for a socialistic society if Obama gets in? I buy my own health insurance – and there is NO WAY that I want the government in charge of my family’s health care!
