Lifesize Sponge
Is anyone else as confused as I am….Hannah Montana is she the same person as Miley Cyrus….which one is blonde/brunette? All this time I thought that some Spears offspring was behind all this. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles isn’t this confusing…..although I do constantly have to ask which one is the blue one…
We got a new TV today. Bobby and I have never really bought anything “techie”. It’s 50 something inches. It’s like have a movie theatre in my living room. I’ve got to admit, it’s pretty cool. And I can’t help thinking how great SpongeBob is going to look on it.
I’ve been sneaking in art in-between diapers. Brain,Child’s spring issue is almost wrapped up….I’m painting a Tampa Bay jersey with a friend’s nephew’s name on it and I just ordered a huge box full of chipboard (wow, exciting!)…it’s what I use for the postcards. I’m happy to say my creativity has stuck around. Yet it is tainted a little with the lack of uninterrupted sleep.
At Christmas, Jamie asked me what I wanted. I replied that I just wanted for him to love his new little sister (and I meant it). Really, mom, that’s it? It’s been one month, he LOVES his little sister. And Colin does too. “Hello baby Anda,” he says. Could this be the bliss that I poo pooed in earlier entries? I’ll take it. We are all enamored with this cute little girl. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you Santa Claus.
Random Words
More “key”/tagged words that pull up this blog:
Barry White, Alcatraz, Napa, CafePress….sounds like the making of a weird short story….
Lobby or Level 1?
Right now I am in the middle of the “nursing” drama. With all 3 kids I have had to climb Mount Everest and back down again to give them the best start. It’s hard. I don’t quit even though my boys think their little sister is a barracuda (yes, she is)…I don’t quit because I am stubborn. My husband thinks I’m crazy (and this is true) and I wonder too…..here’s why I will continue to troop foward in these next few months….yes, it is the best start for my little miss….but what I always think about is this:
What if I get stuck in an elevator and I have nothing to feed my baby?
Voila:breastfeeding.
Yep, that’s what I think about.
From the mouth of Dave
After Christmas, my sister Claire and her boyfriend Dave were up from Norfolk visiting us and the new babe. Jamie brings out Super Hero and friends memory game…a cute 3D memory game where you have to match up figurines of The Thing, Spiderman, Spidergirl (didn’t know she existed) and the like. Their torsos separate from the legs (fun in itself) and are placed under cups, you have to match the two. I have played this with Jamie and have lost miserably every time. It’s not just that I don’t know the characters at all (I defer all superhero questions to Bobby), I just can’t remember ANYTHING!
Dave has been chosen to play (pway as Jamie pronounces it). Dave looks up and asks the ultimate question, “Is this going to make me look stupid?”
Oh yes, Dave. Oh, yes.
Classic.
Isn’t she lovely….
Got to brag…..my little girl is the cutest, smartest, coolest, kindest, prettiest, bestest gal around. No really, I am one blessed mother.
Now it’s off to bed…artwork will come around soon. There’s going to be a strong “pink” influence, be warned.
I just love the music in those Jimmy Dean breakfast commercials…the one with guy dressed up as the sun? The simple melody…sounds like childhood. Can you tell I am “post-partem”?

I had a lot of requests…we’ll see how CafePress does for now. I just ordered my own:)
She’s here!
Soooo…it was you who went with me sightseeing to Alcatraz on that beautiful San Francisco day. It was you who walked with me along the North Carolina beaches last summer. It was you who went to the B-52’s concert in 100 degree heat at Wolf Trap (don’t worry I drank plenty of water and the sun eventually set). It was you who danced at Carrie’s wedding. It was you who hung out through Christmas so as not to dissappoint big brothers (who have been counting since October)….it was you. So glad to meet you, finally.
December 30, 2007….6am….hello Baby Anna.
