Crawling Part 2

Okay, so FYI-I had to switch back to the old editor? So confused, but I think I got it! Miss P has been army crawling around now. It's funny how now that she's mobile, I can't even turn my back for a second and she's moved all the way across the room (yes, I knew this was going to happen, it's just realizing it is happening is sureal to me sometimes). Ryan likes to call her baby godzilla as she is always knocking things over. He will build a tower of blocks and she LOVES to crawl to it and knock it down. The funny part is that she always looks at Ryan before she does it like "Daddy-can I? Can I please knock it down? Is it okay?". Adorable. She is also getting an opinion about things these days. She doesn't like to eat her oatmeal without fruit mixed into it. She's NEVER been picky about food, but all the sudden now needs fruit mixed into her oatmeal. She also loves to stand and hold onto us and walk around the living room/kitchen. She must think this is a HOOT as she talks the whole time she is doing it. She likes to climb into our laps and over our legs. Apparently we make a good jungle gym. Still no teeth. Seriously. Nothin. Zip. Zilch. Nada. God forbid I have to order this kid dentures. :) Her bottom gums are still swollen, but I can't see much because she always sticks her tounge out at me when I try to look in her mouth. I got back on the treadmill tonight because.....we'll because it's a) been a long time, b) this fabulous girl named Ashley is getting married in August and I truly don't want to be the fat girl in all the pictures, and c) it felt good. I forget how good it feels to get out the aggressions. It actually brought back a lot of memories as before I was pregnant with Paighton and had miscarriage after miscarriage, I took my frustrations to the treadmill. I remember running one day and thinking over and over again "I will have a baby, I will have a baby. I won't let them talk me out of it". I remember feeling like this wasn't going to beat me. I wasn't going to let this win. It was weird, but this was th memory that came back to me tonight. So yeah, it felt good. Hopefully I can keep it up! And finally to give you an update on the sewing. After buying fabric and a pattern, I am on my way to making placemats and a table runner. I'm not promising quality, but you have to start somewhere right? I need to purchase some more pins and an actual pin cushion (wondering if they still make the tomato cushion?) and I should be able to move right along. We'll see. I promise to post pictures as I go. Well, it's been 20 minutes since I started this post and the video is still uploading. This could take FORRREEEEVVVVEEEERRRRR...and since I can't publish it until the video is done, you may not get this until tomorrow. Because I need to do laundry. So, have a great evening/day and enjoy the video! ~S

The treadmill is my BFF! I always forget how much I heart her, too...but then that first real run brings it all back :)
PS They still have the tomato at JoAnn and Michaels :) HAPPY SEWING!!
