SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! if:

• Truth be told, I haven't really even given potty training a chance....kind of scares me.
• I was just going to let Day Care potty train Chloe, because I mean, we pay them enough, don't we? me.think.so
• I think I'm going to attempt PT this weekend with some Princess Panties due to Shannon's success story from her Fab Friday post last week!
• I won money from the Super Bowl and I'm going to buy Chloe and myself some stuff for our Florida trip! Oh and I bought myself a lunch tote from ThirtyOne!
• I am giddy excited for Husband to be done with school! MARCH 18th!!!!!
• Today is the first time this week we've gotten up at 5am to work out. I went to bed Sunday not feeling well, and didn't feel like waking up on Monday Morning, and Andy wasn't feeling good on Tuesday....so today, we are BACK AT IT!
• My cat is just as spoiled as our daughter....she gets tuna every day when we get home. And she whines and whines until she gets it.
• Sometimes I'm secretly sad that Chloe is getting so big, so fast. I just want her to be a baby again...
• I'm over my baby fevah! Yep, just like that, but I only give it a few weeks until it's back, because by then, my BFF Cassie will have her new baby boy, and I get to snuggle a newbie again....oh.....my heart will melt, I'm sure!
• I love my hair more every time I see it in the mirror...BUT....I'm thinking next time I get it cut (right before we leave for FL) I'm going to have my Janie Poo cut it a BIT shorter in the back! 

Head on over to Life after I "Dew" and tell us what you are saying SO WHAT! to this week!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! if:

• I worry about my cat when she does weird stuff. Lets face it. She's my first "born".
• I've become addicted to Kiki La Rue....in a bad bad way.
• Catfish might be my favorite show right now.....until Vampire Diaries comes back on....
• I just ordered a Piko top from Kiki La Rue....Ahhhh!!!!!
• I almost didn't have anything to write about for SWW
• We bought Chloe a Full size bed and it's being delivered tomorrow!
• I bought an $18 Tervis Tumbler to help me drink more water....and by Golly, it WORKED! Best $18 I've ever spent!
• I'm looking forward to getting back to my skinny 120 lb body! I know right now I'm only about 4 lbs above that, but I really can feel a difference.
• I'm going to wake up at 5am every morning even after my work sched changes to 8-4:30 just so that I can work out! And Hubs is going to do it with me!

Tuesday Tidbits

• Chloe's birthday party is this weekend and I'm so giddy about it.
• We're getting Chloe her own little table and chairs set for her birthday!
• Watching the Olympics for the past 2 weeks, I've been forgetting about all my other shows. Thank God for DVR!
• To say that I'm an emotional mess about my Mom possibly not coming to Chloe's party is an under statement!
• Regular nail polish just doesn't last on me anymore....between the typing for 9 hours a day and then going home and doing dishes and washing sippy cups....nope!! This Mama needs Shellac, and that's all there is to it!
• Wednesday, Thursday and Friday's are my treadmill days....I like to relax on the weekends, and Monday and Tuesday, I just haven't figured out yet. I don't have good enough form for the 300 ab challenge. My neck ends up killing me after a few days. I just suck at it!
• We are planning on cutting a giant hole in the wall in our basement to make one of the rooms more open and the whole basement kind of a den/hang out room for Chloe!
• I already have all the outfits picked out for Chloe's 2 year pictures! Eeeek!!! I am SOOOOO excited for these ones! Sooooooooo excited! We're going to a local park/lake/beach place and I don't think we could have chosen a better location. These will be the best yet! I'm sure of it!
• I'm thinking that I want to have balloons in Chloe's room when she wakes up on her BIRTHday! Andy and I are staying home from work to spend the day with her and I just want it to be as perfect as possible!
• With Clothes that we got as hand-me-downs and the little bit of Clothes that I have bought for Chloe, she's pretty much set for her fall wardrobe. I'm just hoping that she doesn't go through a crazy growth spurt before winter! Cuz I'd like her to be able to fit into the 3T shirts and 2T pants through the winter. LOL!
• I have gained over 20 followers in the past 2 weeks!!! I CANNOT believe that and I want to thank all of my followers SO much!!!! You guys rock!!!
• I went to Target last Wednesday for cat litter and left with 2 pairs of shorts and a jumper for Chloe AND litter, of course. LOL! Never fails! I can't leave that place without something for Chloe!
• I just signed up to sell Scentsy! I am so over stoked to be a part of this wonderful brand!!! If you are interested in buying, here is my site! cseed.scentsy.us

The Real Me

I've seen this floating around lots of blogs lately, so I thought that I would give it a go...so, here goes.
If you really knew me...

• You would know that I was arrested when I was 17...and if you really know me, you know what for!
• You would know that I was engaged at 19 but waited until I was 21 to walk down the aisle JUST so I could drink at my wedding. 
• You would know that I can't sit in the back seat of a car because I get car sick.
• You would know that I can't read in the car for the same reason.
• You would know that I was allergic to cats before I brought home mine, and  I was super sick for the first 2 weeks that we had her.
• You would know that I went into labor with Chloe exactly at 40 weeks and had her at 5:56 pm 40 weeks and 1 day! I only pushed for an hour!
• You would know that I have a crazy habit of twirling my hair....it's not even a nervous habit, I just always do it.
• You would know that I have scars on my legs from a firework accident. 
• You would know that Shannon from Life After I "Dew" is my cousin and we haven't seen each other in probably 12 years.
• You would know that I was adopted at the age of 6 months old.
• You would know that I don't like doing things by myself....I have to have somebody with me. Even if it's just Chloe and I going to the store. I'm not a fan of being by myself.
• You would know that I am a very emotional person. Sometimes it's the littlest things that get to me...
• You would know that I am very self conscious of my height.
• You would know that I wash my face EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT! I feel dirty if I don't. But I usually only make sure I wash it IF I wear makeup that day.
• You would know that I have CRAZY Amazing rhythm!! Like, I can dance to pretty much anything!
• You would know that I don't like beer....trust me. I've tried pretty much every single kind. They all taste the same to me. NASTY!
• When I was in middle school I was made fun of for the size of my forehead. I guess my hairline is back a little further then most.

How many of those did you know?

My Sunday Morning Scene

I know I haven't done one of these in awhile, but I need to do a test post to make sure something that my wonderful Tiffany fixed! So, I thought what a better post to do then something with pictures and stuff!!

This is a regular thing in the morning for my fur baby! She just always wants to play!

Daddy is sitting at the computer with Chloe playing with an alphabet game! She's loving it!

On todays agenda....we're going to the lake! I'm super excited!!!! Have a great Sunday, Ya'll! Oh, and I'm not sure if you have noticed, or can even see....but today is my 300th post!!!

Friday Letter's {From Maine}

Linking up with Ashley at Adventures of Newlyweds for another Friday Letters! This week I'm writing from Maine. We're actually on our way home today. So this was typed out on Tuesday night because that's the only time that I really had to blog. So, here we go.


Dear Maine, Thank you for your hospitality! As weird as your culture is compared to Michigan, we had a F**king BLAST!!! Dear Chloe, you are an amazing little girl! With the exception of the few meltdowns you did have, you were amazing on this trip! We couldn't have asked for anything better! Thank you! Dear Will and Cassie, I want to thank you guys for spending this week with us! It was great to spend the time with you guys and the girls and I can't wait for what's ahead in your lifes! Sooooo exciting! Dear Husband, You're a trooper, FOR SURE! I know that it's tough vacationing with a toddler, but you rocked it out! Dear Mother In Law, Thank you for watching over our new house and making sure that our kitty was fed and safe! We appreciate you more then you will ever know! Dear MMCH, thank you for being invented! I'm sure without you we would have had a screaming toddler for a full 20 hour drive to Maine and HOME! That would not have been fun....

My "Minnie" Me: Chloe 23 Months

My Chloe girl is almost 2, and I can hardly believe it! I remember the day she was born like it was yesterday. How I woke up at about 1 in the morning and just laid in bed counting my contractions until about 3am because I didn't want to wake Hubby in case it wasn't time yet. 

I remember how Hubby called the nurses and told them I had been having contractions 7 minutes apart for the past 3 hours, and they told him to tell me to GET IN THE SHOWER and get my BUTT to the hospital!! 

I remember how Hubby made me my favorite sandwich, which consisted of wheat sandwich thins, salami, hot pepper cheese and mustard. We gave the cat kisses and told her that we would be bringing her sister home soon and jumped in the car and arrived at the hospital around 4am.

And then I remember the whole day being full of contractions, my Mom, painful contractions, and giving birth to my sweet baby girl.

And now, she's 23 months old, and I can't tell you where the time has gone. This past year has been AH-Mazing! Chloe has been learning and growing so much lately! She's just a sponge, and she is so happy! We bought a new house and girlfriend loves her new room! She loves all the space she has to run around and play in. And she loves the fact that we're so close to our besties Will and Cassie and their twin 3 year old girls! 

Chloe and Shadow (the cat) get along pretty well now too! Shadow kinda hates to love Chloe. Chloe will run and chase her, and Shadow will run from her. But when Chloe is sitting, Shadow will rub against her and purr. And Chloe just gets a kick out of that and laughs and says "awwww, Sadow"

Girl has been in a todder bed since she was like 19 or 20 months. She loves it! She's only fallen out about 3 times, and every time she's gotten right back up in it and went right back to sleep! She's always been an amazing sleeper, and I'm so grateful for that! Couldn't have asked for a better baby....Ever!
This week Chloe left the country for the first time! We drove through Canada to get to Maine. That was an interesting 20 hour drive.....but we made it, and we're having a blast!
Chloe has been loving the beach and hanging out with her friends Caitlyn and Alexa. We have just been relaxing and having a great time on our family vacation with our besties Will and Cassie and their twin girls! It's been great, and of course I don't want it to end!
I can't believe that my girl is going to be 2 years old in 1 month! It's just crazy to me, and she's growing and learning so much, and I can't wait to see what the future brings for her! She's Mama's baby girls. Always and forever. No matter what happens with our family in the {FAR} future, she's always the one that made me a Mommy! And I will forever cherish that with her!
