Just A Monday...

Well its a dreary monday morning at work, not much going on, and I felt the need to blog!

Had a pretty decent weekend, although I was a little disappointed in how mothers day went. Nothing really special for me. Was at church from 8:15am to 1:30pm, then we went over to his mom and dads until 7 or so. Had to let the dog off the runner, then Chloe was getting extremely ill. (she had a very short nap and she has a molar coming in giving her trouble) So we went in to try and get her to eat, no go, and Lee had to take her outside and swing on the porch to get her to stop screaming and go to sleep. Sigh. Then I couldn't find anything to eat (I was wanting to go OUT that night but that didn't happen) so that made me madder, and finally I  made us two egg sandwiches and went to bed. So, not a great day. Oh well. I did get a nice card from Lee that said he would take me to Olive Garden or Red Lobster to eat and then to see the Hunger Games, whoo hoo! Maybe we can go this weekend. Although I just thought, we have my neices grad party on Sat and then Sunday is her Graduation. Hm, so we might need to do it this week some time.

Saturday was pretty fun though, we went over to my mom and dads that night for my dads birthday. I got four papa johns pizzas and made him a three layer white on white cake. It was a big hit. We also watched our infamous House Boat Trip video AGAIN, for like the 4th time, haha. Still awesome. I cant believe its been 7 years. CanNOT believe it!

So I mentioned a dog! Yeah, Lee finally talked me into another one. You might remember our schnauzers, Bowser and Missy? Well we gave Missy to Lees cousin, then Lee accidentally ran over Bowser a few months ago :( That was awful...

Anyway, meet Max!

He is a 9 month old American Bulldog. We rescued him. He seems to be a good dog, needs a lot of training since NONE was done on him. But hes sweet. Still, another dog was not something I had to have. Its just another hassle, something to worry about, feed, take to the vet, etc. -_- But I knew Lee wanted another one, so whatever. He is having a lot of fun teaching him to fetch a frisbee.

So, Chloe is doing good. She has been a bit cranky these few days but I think its that molar coming in. She is saying so many phrases now, so funny. She can basically copy cat anything you say. Here's a few:

1. There she is!
2. Its just a
3. I dont know
4. Hold on
5. Just a minute
6. Happy birthday to you (comes out more like happy to to you in a cute sing song voice, lol)

She also went on her first boat ride last weekend! She wasn't too sure about it. She had a life jacket of Lukes on that didn't fit real well and it kept her kind of boxed in around her head, lol. So she just SAT THERE, didnt say a word, move, etc, it was kind of sad! Lol, I finally took her down in the cabin to change her clothes and after I took it off she started moving around and talking, lol! I remember when she was little and I held her ears for fireworks she would be really still. I guess the way to get her to go limp is to hold her head still! Hopefully she will do better next time in her own life jacket and have more fun.

We bought her a potty last week! I have sat her on it about three times now, no pee pee yet but she loves doing it, thinks its great fun. I have her help me pull her pants and diaper down and sit next to her on mine when I go and she thinks is so funny. I tell her okay, go pee pee! And she will laugh and shake her head and say no! in a funny voice, lol, not real heartening but hopefully she will get the hang of it soon. I don't think she will be real difficult. She tells us pretty much every time now when she has pooped, she says shoo shoo, lol.

I broke out the bikini for the first time a few weeks ago! I felt so awesome, it was great. I didn't look as toned as I wanted, but def okay to go out in it. First time ever!! Since then I have been eating pretty crappy so my lower stomach has that bit of pooch now that I don't like, again. Gotta quit eating so much! I wish I could get the tone of my upper stomach into my lower. Sigh. Hate that lower tummy fat! It wasn't as great as it could have been though because the husband did NOT approve. That caused some tension for a week or so. We still haven't really talked about it...we need to. I don't really know what to say though. I mean, ugh, really, really REALLY?? Does he REALLY want me to never wear one again? What bothers him so much about it?! Its not like I'm out there exibiting for anyone, it was just my bro and  his wife and some friends we grew up with. Anyway, thats neither here nor there. I know I need to be submissive and do as he wants me to...just hard!!

Sort of in the same vein, we found out our love language at small group last Friday. Lee and I have the SAME top two! Thats strange for a couple! Our top two are Quality Time and Acts of Service. Then my next is Words of Affirmation, Lee is Physical Touch and Gifts tied. Kinda neat to find out! And very helpful to make our relationship better.

Well not much else going on! Ta ta!
