What's for Lunch?!

I wanted to write a post about ideas for lunch and dinners for toddlers....but I have a funny story to tell.

In my last post I was talking about moms that seem to have everything together. Here goes..

Yesterday I got Josiah up from his morning nap. I had him on my hip while I was making him a grilled cheese and cutting up a tomato and banana. He pointed down to his private area which he does when he is about to pee. I was thinking to myself man....that pee was very warm. Well I looked down and I had pee all over my shirt!!!!!!! So I flipped the grilled cheese ran to my room changed my shirt (I had a friend coming over any minute) and then changed his diaper. I then ran over to the pan that the grilled cheese was in and realized I had burnt one side. So what did I do? Make a new one? Don't think so! I pulled the burnt piece off and slapped on a new piece of bread! Making a new sandwich would have taken too long and it would have wasted a piece of bread! HA!

Like I said....I don't have everything together, but I am trying! :)

OCD = NOT ME!

I am so jealous of moms that have everything together! I dream of being one of those moms but I just can't get ahead. I sometime wish I was OCD. (Ha..is there a word for being opposite of OCD?!) I still have boxes every where. Why? Well, I want to be organized but I can't seem to decide how I want to organize them so I figure the stuff is better in a box than lying all over the place. I'm not sleeping good at night because I have a million and one things going through my head!

By the way...I'm totally not complaining, I love being a stay at home mom...just letting you know what is going on!



The main thing that has been running through my mind lately is...PLANNING A BABY SHOWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am super stoked about this and have so many ideas! So many that while I'm trying to sleep I keep thinking of more! Crazy I know, but I want it to be perfect! You only have your first child one time! My sweet friend Jaime is due with Carter in February!!! I am so excited for her and Brad! I am planning the shower the first weekend of December.

SN: I went with Jaime to one of her ultrasounds (the first one I have ever been to) and that is the coolest, most amazing thing ever!

This is Jaime at 5 months....

I just can't find time to do everything...and I wonder how other moms do it! I envy moms that work and have a life! Maybe one day I will get caught up, have a clean house, all the laundry will be done and all the boxes will be unpacked..but today is not the day!!! I am off to go to Joanns and Hobby Lobby once Josiah wakes up!

FUN!

Friday night Josh and I decided to do NOTHING! We literally didn't sit down all week long so it was nice! We caught up on a few of our shows.

Saturday Jill had Kennedy's birthday party! It was so much fun! Jill did great on the decorations!

Here is the birthday girl!

Josiah sitting at the kids' table! I think I need to invest in one..he loved it! Me and Josiah at the party

Cute cake and decorations

We left the party and went over to Josh's parent's house to get some more of our stuff! I feel like we get rid of a box and gain 3 more! We loaded up the cars and then headed back to our house. Josh's mom, dad and nieces came over and we went to the park!


Josiah has decided that he likes to go down the slide all by himself (tear). He is such a big boy!

This isn't the greatest picture..but look at that smile! He has so much fun on the slide!

Samantha and Taylor

The girls wanted Grandma and me to play with them

After we played at the park for awhile we went back to our house and I fixed some Taco Soup! It was delicious!

Saturday night Josh and I watched the Blind Side! I LOVED it! I thought it was soo good!

Sunday we got up took Josiah to my parent's house. Josh and I headed back to our house to get ready for Church. We are in the process of finding a new church to go to. The church we went to was okay, but I don't think it is the one we will continue to go to. There was nothing wrong with the church, it just didn't seem like the one! Hopefully we will find one to call our home soon!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I know we did!

We are finally getting cable today! Yay! We got rid of a ton of boxes this weekend and it is starting to feel like a home! Now if I can only get Josh to hang up my decorations!

I See the Moon

We are still super busy unpacking and just getting settled into the house! We had a really awesome, busy weekend and I have some pictures to upload, but I am trying to get in bed at a decent time. I did upload this video real fast though. (I promise Josiah wears clothes!)

Good News! We have internet NOW!!!!!!

Taking a break....

Whew...Taking a break from packing!

Ok, I'm lying I haven't unpacked one box today! I have been cleaning and organizing my chaos because some of the girls are coming over tonight for chili.

So really I am taking a break from cleaning...

I am so excited for the girls to get together tonight! Crystal is back in town for a little while so I decided to have everyone over so we could all hang out before she heads to Chicago.

They will just have to get over all the boxes in the rooms! My living room, dining room and kitchen are clean though. It is just really hard to unpack with Josiah. Since moving in Josiah has been super clingy. I think he is a little confused.

Hopefully this weekend we will get a lot more done. I just want everything to be put away right so I don't have to deal with it later.

We have a birthday party to go to on Saturday and I think that is it! I am so excited that Josiah is going to get to play with some other kids! I am also looking forward to spending our first weekend in our house as a family! :)

I love, love, love our new house!!!!!

I haven't posted in a little while and I probably won't until the 11th. We don't have internet at the new house and I feel bad stealing the neighbors (obviously not too bad because I am doing it right now).

I am so overwhelmed....We have boxes everywhere and they aren't going away! It is very hard to unpack with Josiah wanting to be outside 24/7. I try to get as much done during naps as I can but its hard when his first name I shower and then the second nap doesn't last too long! Josh has tons of school work so while he is doing that at night I am trying to get things unpacked. I keep wishing that the unpacking fairy would come visit us, but so far she hasn't.

Anyway, hopefully I will post again soon!

I hope everyone is enjoying there week!!! :)
