Not A Red Carpet Kind Of Life: This Is The Way I Live....

Tonight I was blog-hopping (I AM ADDICTED) and stumbled on a blog that mentioned everything she wanted to accomplish in the next year. Now, I could do a list that consists of things I want to accomplish in my 20's, but that's 10 years, and honestly, a list that long will scare me away. Let's take in months people. I thought that it was a great idea, although I am not sure that even if I write the words will I actually fulfill what's written. I have this issue committing. I kinda suck at it. ha. In the last 10 months I have done SO good dieting and working out for like a week or so and then I give up and stop. If I don't see immediate results I'm like screw this. SO here's my list of things I want to do in the next 12 months.

1.Keep a commitment
2.Lose the baby weight.
3.Pay off debt.
4.Get better about scrap-booking.
5.Eat Better.
6.Do Yoga!
7.Start running!
8.Stop judging.
9.Put clothes away after I fold them
10.Be a GREAT mom
11.Be a Better listener.
12. Stop focusing so much on what I don't have and realize how blessed I am to have everything I actually do have.

I will probably add more. We'll see. This'll be fun to see how far I get with it.

Today was an alright day. Last night, not so much. Camden woke up EVERY 30 minutes and just screamed. He has a sore throat...and I thought maybe an ear infection? But, I brought him to the doctor's and he just has a little bug. But, none the less, very fussy!! I feel so bad when he's sick like that, because there's nothing I can do. I am scared to give him any kind of pain reliever because when he was about 3 months old he was teething and I gave him some Motrin and he instantly got this horrible rash all over his face and body and his face started to swell. It was really scary. I brought him to the doctor's right away and they told me he was allergic to it and never to give it to him again. And then when he was about 5 months Old I gave him Tylenol and he started choking and gagging like he couldn't swallow or something and so I decided that Tylenol was no good either, even though my doctor reassured me it was fine. But its weird because he's fussy, but he's still his old cheerful self too. It like comes in waves. But he's sooo tired and sick. And all he wants to do (most of the time) is nurse and rock. Um, and have I mentioned that he has been BITING me....He wants to nurse, So I nurse him and then he bites. My boobs are so sore. And yes, I am some kind of delirious physco mom who feels that her child needs his boob milk until he is a year regardless if I am hurting and scared that I may never have sensation back ever again. Ohhh well, at least it will give him all the antibodies he needs!!!

Other then him being fussy fussy fussy and me being tired tired tired, not much is going on. Been working on school work, trying to get the finished. In my ways of being super excited can't stand it to move out moods and then being like no thank you, I don't want to move. At least I have my blazer back, did I mention that Seth has a truck now? Thank Jesus. I love just being able to leave when I want. Even though I haven't ventured too far because my poor little babe is sick.

On tomorrow's agenda, it looks like we are going to this great little place that I visited when I was like 10. It's called Willowbrooke, and its a great little "town" that is supposed to resemble the 19Th century. It's like you have stepped right back there and its really cool. You get to walk through the houses, and watch the machines being used like they were back in the 1800's...and all this really cool stuff! Tomorrow is a special event and the admission is free and they have a carousel ride! It's going to be a great time. I LOVE going places that are set to resemble "old times". Although, I am very scared of ghosts...I love old farm houses, I love learning the history behind such old things! I just love history. One day, I am going to learn more about my parents house. I plan on heading to the local library and rummaging through to see if there are any pictures (their house was built in 1830) or a story or SOMETHING. Or even something on the area. One day! Anyway, it s a great place to go, (from what I remember..?) here's the link: http://www.willowbrookmuseum.org/index.html

And then Sunday its Acton Fair Baby!!!

Got some cute pictures of Camden today just hanging out...
