OKAY! So time for posting I suppose, but first can I just say Conference has been awesome. I prepared for it like I use to do when I was single (well maybe not EXACTLY but as close as I could with a little one following me around) not to mention I have been on my knees a little more with Jeremy being gone! So it has been exactly what I needed.
So news you ask? Well Jer came home (for like three days) and then jetted off to San Diego. He's there for a conference and he is loving it! He has to look for a car while he's there.
Huh? Oh why does he have to look for a car you ask? Oh because I got nicely rear-ended and totaled the car. Our beautiful, reliable car that was all paid off. We could have kept using it except that the trunk won't open. Oh, and one of the back doors so getting groceries with addie is REALLY a chore now. Not to mention I can't take her stroller anywhere with me (LUCKILY it was not in the trunk cause I had forgotten it that day!)
Though to be honest I feel really grateful. I was all upset about the wreck but while I was driving home I saw a really bad wreck on the road I drive every time I leave the house. Definitely one of those you-are-sure-lucky-it-wasn't-worst moments.
Plus it was a blessing in disguise. We won't have to rent a big uhaul for all our stuff. We are going to get something that can tow instead. What we are still not sure about. Though I am sure Jer has called all his family to ask opinions and such
In Addie news, she completely weened herself. I was really sad and worried at first, but when it turned to a month later and I was going dry because I was only pumping I decided to try formula. Now I am able to enjoy having my body back (Yay for me!)
Also, she is sleeping through the night! I must admit that I had a lot to do with this one. She went through the night once and I thought to myself "if you can do it once you can do it again!" So I didn't get up with her and now she doesn't wake up at all.
I receive grins all the time! I swear (oh and I'm serious) that she said elephant and lion. She might have been mimicking the sounds I was making but dang, it sounded JUST like it.
I still can't get her to say mama, and when I do ask her I get 'dadadadada'. No Joke. But she is adorable and I so am in love with her.
All in all we are good. It is an interesting time in my life. I am finding strength, no rather endurance, I wasn't sure I had in me. But I hear the little one stirring so I am afraid this is the end of this post. I love you all!
