3/4/08 - Shake 'n Bake!!

Well, it's cold again   And it's wet!  Our sump pump kept kicking on/off all night long and kept me up for a good portion of it.  Kindergarten sign ups are today too.....not sure how I feel about that one!  On one hand I'm happy to see her gorw up and experience new things but on the other hand I know she will be our only child and I want to keep her with me for as long as possible!!  I have until August to get used to the idea though don't I? FOOD S:  My usual English toffee latte (still haven't run out of regular syrup but it won't be long!) B:  1/2 cup BBQ pulled chicken  L:  Snicker's caramel nut rush protein bar D:  Taco salad w/o the chips and then I did have a few chips w/ refried beans FLUIDS 8oz coffee 8oz 1%milk 16.9oz crystal lite Tea 16.9oz  Crystal lite lemonade  12oz diet pepsi EXERCISE laundry, vacumning, cleaning up the toy trail!

It is hard to do...but you will love seeing her enjoy this new world she will be entering! I can remember when I took Aubrey to her first day...it was more traumatic on me than her. She could not understand what all the fuss was about! I think seeing the parents with tears in their eyes as they watched their kids walk to the classrooms for the first time scared her more than anything! She thought the kids were not going to see their parents again and that is why they were sad! It is almost surreal now to see her each day waiting to bring her son into this world and experience those feelings. Wow...did those years fly!  Enjoy her until then and once she starts to get into the routine...you will actually start to enjoy that time for yourself and look forward to it!  Good job on the weight loss!   

 im feeling that way about katelyn turning 4. It's killing me.   I just asked todd what I was going to do with all the extra time on my hands after she starts school. I gues she will be my only one, so I have no idea what I will do then!!    food for tuesday s- prochino b=4 peanut butter crackers( was on the road to dr shina appt) l- a cheeseburger patti from mcd's no bread just the patti,. only ate half of that, d- less than 1 cup chili with about four ritz crackers s- fudge sicles( spelled wrong) fluids: 8 oz 1 percent milk 20 ounces water w/ crystal light 20 oz water with crystal light

I can actually see her being one of those children who wrap themselves around the parent's leg and refusing to go in on the first day!  She kinda did this with pre-school the first week or so.  I would go in with her and then once she started to interact and play i'd just slip out without her knowing. I took her with me to register on Wednesday and she didn't want to walk into the library where the parents and staff were filling out the paperwork.  I simply looked at her and told her "fine stay out here but I'm going in....hope you don't get lost"  Usually that's all it takes since she got lost a few months ago at the Lowe's (talk about being scared straight)!

I'm sure it wouldn't take long for me to fill up my time!  I will either go back to work or help my husband with his business doing some of his office work and then do the PTA / Booster-mom thing too.  That part of the deal I'm actually looking forward to!
