Friday's Random Thoughts

It has been a busy week so lots are going around in that crazy head of mine. In no random order........

-I am so tired today because i was bad and stayed up WAY too late last night drinking wine, watching Grey's and chatting with some of my closest friends, especially my neighbor. Love her, I love that we can talk about our husbands, marriage and sex like I can with no other friend that I have!

-I got the opportunity to stay in an AMAZING house on monday night. I was in Indy visiting another franchise like the one i work for and the owner is a close friend of my parents. I stayed with him and his wife in their 10,000 sq ft house.....yes i put in the right number of zeros!!! It was unreal!!! Seriously like an MTV cribs house. Half court basketball court INSIDE with the Virgina Tech logo on teh floor and wall...I mean COME ON! Two outdoor fire places and the most beautiful decor I have ever seen! I wish she could come decorate my house. I honestly cannot imagine living in a place like that! CRAZY

-We have definately had our ups and downs in teh potty department the last week. We took some steps backward over the weekend and had to put her on a non constipating diet because she was backed up from not wanting to poop on the potty which then caused her a lot of pain when she finally did go..this happened twice since last Thursday...so i have really been watching her fruits and juice intake and limiting and restricting her dairy...it has been helping but she still hasn't pooped on the potty since the first time....if she doesnt poop today i will be adding some myralax to her juice to help her because i really don't want to see her in so much pain, it was awful to see. I swear this potty stuff has been the most challenging thing I have done as a parent other than teh sleep deprivation and colic that came with the first few months. I am really hoping things get better, although so far the latter part of this week as been much better and she has gone back to peeing on the potty regularly instead of holding it all day long like she did last weekend.

-Fall is finally coming to MI and there is a part of me that is excited for jeans, sweaters and I love that fall smell in the air. I am looking forward to heading to the apple orchard as well in the near future. Fall is such a great time of year...until it brings winter....

-I was so proud of Iz last night. My uncle is in town from CA and we went to a resturant that i had not been to in years...we walked in and i was immediately stressed b/c it was what I would call a pretty upscale place, not a place for a toddler AT ALL. I was worried about how she would do and I am happy to report that I had nothing to worry about. She did great. She ate and sat during the meal and we were there well over an hour. I even had waiters coming up to me to tell me how well behaved she was. She even went potty 3 times while we were there (i think she was using it as excuse to get up from teh table but she did pee all 3 times even if it was just a little)

-DH has been out of town since wednesday and he doesn't come home until tomorrow night. I have no idea what Iz and I will do tomorrow, no plans...we will have to come up withsomething good...i have pawned her off a lot on my mom this week, not really on purpose just due to curcimstances so I am looking forward to picking her up today and spending the day with her tomorrow
