{1} Zone Bars.
I bought a big pack of these bars from Costco a couple weeks ago and I wasn't expecting to like the fudge graham kind as much as I did! I would seriously rather have it than a candy bar right now! It's got a slight cinnamon taste to me and it is just so good! I usually have one when I get hungry right away at the office and it really hits the spot!
{2} My Momma
I hope I'm half the Mom to the girls when they are older that my mom is to me. I'm not a neat person, I'm not gross and dirty (well my sister might say I am) but its not horrible! I'm just not tidy. Especially my car. My grandparents are coming up from Iowa today and then my parents, grandparents, the girls and I are heading up to Fargo for my nephews birthday party. Well my mom suggested we all take my car since we can all fit in it, which I'm totally on board for. Then she goes, well maybe I'll just take it home and clean it out too. I mean I guess if you have to.... just kidding yes please! ha! This was right after she brought me some subway for lunch :)
{3} Health Field Professionals
I've wrote about it before but Dixie is pretty delayed for her age, especially in gross motor. She is just over 2 and not walking by herself. She will walk behind a wagon or toy stroller but not by herself. This has caused a lot of tears and worries. Lots. She finally got set up through the school district for Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy and we have been seeing some great progress. I distinctly remember tearing up to the special ed teacher and saying could there be something more? Could this be bigger than just delayed and they both said they would like to wait and see. Well I was completely blind sided to where she wanted to get Dixie re-evaluated at a children's hospital. Which I'm completely ok with, I think the more information the better, but I was just so sure everything was going to be ok with the progress she has been making. It brought me right back to 6 months ago where I would cry and cry and worry about it. I bawled to both Dixie's Physical Therapist and her Doctor. Bless their hearts for comforting me. Parenting can be a scary road sometimes. I feel 100 times better now that I have talked to Dixie's doctor but it is still just so scary to think it couldn't be something "more". I just need to remind myself that Dixie is just so darn happy and that is what I need to focus on. We are ramping up the PT and OT sessions in the mean time to see if that helps her break the barrier and start cruising on her own!
{4} Family Time
The last bit of summer and this first bit of fall seems to be just packed with activities and I'm not digging that! I am ready to just sit back and relax, but in the mean time we did squeeze in some family time and that is my favorite! We are just so lucky with the girls!
{5} Decluttering!!
This has been my goal for the last 3 weeks except we have just been too busy. I'm nailing it down this Sunday - next Sunday. My husband has a huge dump trailer for work and I'm loading that bad boy up. We have so many toys that are in awful useless condition. Remember how I told you I'm not tidy? We have used our basement as a landing space for all our junk over the last 5 years because we don't ever use our basement. We have a king size mattress down there that the kids just jump on. I meant to sell it on a swap site and never got to it and it just never got moved. For real it looks like we are hoarders down there. I'm treating myself to some pumpkins and giant mums after this is all said and done to decorate the front entry way! I'm really hoping Costco still has some big mums around!
{Bonus}
I've seriously been wanting to cut my hair sooooooooo bad lately! I love it long for braids and top knots, how sad is that! Its so long it looks kind of gross straight. Both my sisters cut their hair and now I'm itching to do it too, maybe just not as short. I'm so torn!
