Laughing at Landon!

Yes this is about my hilarious nephew! Ok so as I was typing up my recent post, Tammy was talking to Landon about our fish, Black widow. Yes I know that fish has a strange name but there's reason behind it lol. Well Landon was telling her how he fed the fish and Tammy and I ask him "uh.… how much did you give him?" Landon said, "I shook it ten times!"

Tammy bolts to the fish tank and starts laughing. I walked out of my room to see what she was laughing at and asked "so how much did he feed widow?" she replied "well uh he fed him enough."

So I look in the fish tank and the whole top layer of water was covered in fish food! I turned to look at Landon and I asked "are you trying to kill our fish?" He shook his head yes lol.

I had to laugh and share this because the small story behind this goldfish is that we bought him along with 9 other goldfish. We brought them home and next thing you know all our fish wound up belly up. Well all but him. So we went out and bought him some more buddies. Same thing happened. So we did it a third time, but this time we watched closely… This little fish is EVIL! It killed the other fish! So from then on his name was Black widow. We make jokes on how long is this fish going to last but who knows! Lol!

Decisions, Decisions.

So this past year I have been awesomely given the job of mommy. Though it has crossed my mind for the past ten months on weather I get a job or take on the duties of a stay at home mommy. Well let's be honest I would love the opportunity to spend each and every day with Scott to enjoy all his firsts. And so far I have, but I still felt bad about not bringing any income into the house. So in April I found a job as a dishwasher. It wasn't great but it was still a job and it made me feel better knowing I could buy things for my boy. Well as time went by every time I was at work all I could think about was staying home with Scott. I'm not spending enough time with Scott.

So I ended up leaving my job, well I was fired under ridiculous circumstances. Though I felt like a failure, my love had said "don't worry everything will be ok, just focus on Scotty." I felt very uneasy about him saying this because deep down I really knew where he was getting at. Stay at home mommy. The thought raced through my mind for weeks and I felt like I was unsure. I want to give him the best and I feel that way if I'm working, but maybe being super mom isn't whats best? What if god had intended me to be a stay at home mom? I was unsure of this for quite sometime until here recently my love had got a new job. He had told me that "if you want to go to work I won't stop you, but I would prefer you stay home with our son."

That very moment everything was clear. I knew in that very moment what would be best and what I thought was right. I have made the decision to stay home with my baby boy. I'm sure a lot of people think it'd be better for me to work but my mind is made up. Plus he's only this small once. And I wouldn't miss it for the world!

Exciting Firsts For Momma!

So here it is 12:50 pm and I'm waiting on my boiled eggs to cool so i can dye them for little Scotty and the rest of the kiddos for Easter tomorrow. I will admit I'm supper excited for his first Easter! I know its silly but hey, hes only going to be this age once so why not?

Well lets get into the exciting first time mommy experiences....so my little man just turned 8 months old the other day and I'll admit I really can not believe hes that old. The time has flown by so so fast. Makes me want to tear up a little... Well any who, on April 1st his first tooth pooped through! I couldn't believe my eyes! My little baby boy got his first tooth. Its one of the bottom ones. Now I know this sounds so mean of me to say but I really can't help but laugh when I see him smile now because i am so used to him with no teeth. Now to see him with that one lone tooth its really hard not to laugh....

Another awesome thing he did this week was he pulled his self up on my leg. Yay! hes just a growing so fast it blows my mind. And to make things more exciting is that boy is mobile! Yes I said it, mobile! Hes crawling everywhere and there is no stopping him. Hes also built up his word book to three words. I'm so proud my baby is so so smart! He knows Mama, Dada, and Nana. I bet his next word will be no considering he gets into everything and that's pretty much the only word he hears.

So these past few months have been an amazing gift and I wouldn't change it for the world. Now I have to finish the eggs for the kiddos...So good night peoples! God Bless!!

Words Of A Sleep Deprived Mommy.

Lil man still will not fall asleep. Its 2am! sheesh normally he goes to be by 11 and is out for the night,but ugh....I'm tired and the little butt wont go to bed dang it. But seriously I am dead on tired. And from the looks of it, its going to be a long night.

Random Laughing And New Foods.

So today as I'm cleaning the bathroom, I hear just random baby giggles. Peeking out the curtain that covers my bathroom, I see Scotty just laughing away at absolutely nothing. Really? Now I'm confused as ever. Who or what could this lil man be laughing at? A few people say hes talking to the angels and his uncle and poppa. At this point I believe it! I sent my hubby a txt telling him our son has been laughing for no reason, johnny txt me back "That's my boy lol"

Yesterday when Scotty's grandma came home and broke out the swiss rolls! You should have seen his face...he saw it and eyes got real wide. So Grandma gave him a taste of the cream filling, he went wild! He looked a little like this.
