Stress test.
Ohhh nice. I spent my free time learning how stressed I am. I Stumbled Upon it and had to try it out. (Stumble has some reallllly cool stuff on it -- check it out -- but only if you have free time. Beware -- you may waste a lot of time of that thing.) Now I understand why I have a cold. Lol whopsies. Speaking of free time, that is over. Now to go get the missy taken care of, make lunch for Dominic, appointments this afternoon, errands to run, job searching to do, things to do this evening. If I'm lucky maybe I'll get to watch Grey's Anatomy tonite, after the next 9 hours of crazy. I have become obsessed with that show. It's amazing, for those of you who haven't seen it. But gotta run!
Just a real quick one from Christmas from a different camera. =)

Your Results
You're highly likely to develop a stress-triggered illness due to everything that's going on in your life. However, your coping skills and the efforts you make to reduce stress can minimize this risk. Talk to a mental health professional if you need treatment. Support groups and convenient online forums can be beneficial, too. Common stress-related illnesses to watch out for include:

At this moment...
--My hoodie pocket consists of 3 tissues (I already need another one), my phone, a suckie, chapstick, "wal-phed", and a finger puppet toy. Full pocket I'd say. My life as mommy.
--Riley is right at my feet, trapping me in my spot on the couch.
--Dozer is in front of the heater.
--Dominic just went back to work after his lunch break.
--The house is a mess.
--I have a huge to-do list.
--I am thinking of a list of people, I wonder what they are thinking about.
--I hear 1/2 Grey's Anatomy, 1/2 baby whine.
--Kayden is in her bouncer, she can't figure out what kind of mood she's in today. So far, she's been choosing the grumpy mood.
--Now that I look up, she looks exactly like this:
(I got one! =D)
These are from the other day, but it is too cute when she does it! I better go put her back down for a nap...she hasn't been cooperating with those today either, she's having a rough day. As am I. I've been sick the past couple days and have realized that it doesn't matter how crappy I feel, I still have to clean up her crap. I'm not to fond of it at this moment lol. I lean over to pick her up, play, tickle, change her diaper, whatever the case -- and yummy snot drips out of my nose. It's sick. I'm sick. I hate being sick. I rarely get sick. But I'll try not to whine about it anymore...for now at least ;-).
Notice her sweet sparkly silver kicks.
Notice her sweet sparkly silver kicks.
The other day she was spun around and I've been trying to get her attention by her name, so I was calling her from behind. She gave me this look:
And then this one: =D It looks like a mad face but it is the happiest face in all the land haha.
She's too cute, I can barely handle it.
Oh hey girl!
Yesterday Dominic was about to give her a bath and comes running into the living room cracking up. "Look babe! Look!! We're the same whiteness!" HAHAHA! He's so funny. They are both very white! But I can't be the one to talk...with my ghost legs...and ghost...everything. Dominic gets tan in the summer when he is constantly outside, but I think she may be screwed if she gets my skin. That little whitey baby. I love her little rolls on the side. And check out those chunka thighs! =D
This is what happens in the bath now:
She is not down for laying down, and wants whatever you are trying to do. She at least is distracted with a toy when she's sitting up:
And just one of our anniversary flowers that Dominic got for me. =) I forgot to take some pictures sooner, so they are already a few days old, but still gorgeous!
He is so good at picking flowers! And now that I've gotten him to include a little "flower tag" card -- I'm a happy camper. ;-) He used to always hate to write anything, everything. He says he has "bad handwriting". But I love all that "memoir" crap ;-). So I finally think I've got him convinced that a little note card ain't so bad. I've been working on this awhile now (years.) and he finally started doing it. This past anniversary I told him he didn't even have to get me anything, just a love letter. He got me flowers, and a jam-packed 2x3 note card. I'm not complaining. ;-) We'll see if some day I will get flowers and a 3x5 card. Haha, just kidding. He's the best.
I've noticed that I take a lot of pictures of Kayden in her bouncer, and I've been trying to spice it up a bit. But she loves that thing. And it makes it easier to step back and take a picture. Anyway, I'll try to get some new and exciting ones soon. Maybe we need another park trip...

Just one.
Of the little tater-tot and me. =) She rarrrely rests her head on me anymore now that she can hold it up, so this is precious. She was so sleepy and cuddly so I was soakin it up.
Another thing that melts my heart is when she rests her head on her bouncy toy. It's the cutest thing in the world. I'll have to try to get a picture of it soon.
She's getting crazy at rolling! We put her down on her little mat and instantly she is across the room. We're in trouble!! She's getting very good at sitting up too. Doesn't even lean on the couch anymore (in the corner). She's such a big girl. (I have mixed feelings about the previous sentence. ;-) (=)/=( )

A walk in the park.
It was such a pretty day out today, the kind of day that you just have to go to the park =).
We are lucky to have a park literally less than 2 blocks away, on our street. It's going to come in handy! So today was the day!! Kayden's first park day! =)
She wasn't so sure of it at first...
But then discovered that it was in fact, A BLAST! =D
She spotted some kids playing near by, and wouldn't give me the time of day from then on out. ;-)
"Ohhhh!! Will this go into my mouth?"
Daddy pushing. =)
And her first slide! Wahoo. She wasn't very interested.
The sun was going down fast, but hopefully we will get to go again soon!
I love that munchkin, and that man.
A busy week. We haven't really been up to much in particular but..it's seemed busy for some reason. Here's just a few randoms of the girlie.
Happy New Year!
Hold that cheeky up.
Unexpectedly, Dominic had to stay in Arizona on Wednesday night. So this is what we did:
laid on the couch with blankies and movies. =) She loves that little blankie bear thing and was so content like this for so long, sucking on the corner silky part, and hanging out with Mom. Precious.
Haha! This one cracks me up because of Dominic's silly face. She loves to do this! I can't wait for this at baseball games, the fair, etc. ;-) (But I can wait, she's already growing so fast!!)
She's so funny. Leaning wayyy back to look at ... somthin. =D
Nom nom nom!
Lil precious thing. She scratched her nose =(. Umm...that's a vest!! So freaking cute.
Holy Moly - I can't believe how fast she's growing! It's tripping me out! To think...in less than a month she will be half a year old! I was writing about the labor the other day and it's bizarre that it's already that long ago. I'm already planning her birthday party ;-). I've been collecting cookie cutters too! =D We need to weigh her soon...we don't have a scale at our house so I never think about it when we're around one. She's getting big though! I tried to put her size one shoes on the other day that we love(d), and nope, no way was it going on her foot. Lil munchkin, stop growing so fast!!
Having a blasty blast eating bananas with pops. She's a crack up! ...And a mess.
Yesterday was our 3 year anniversary of being "facebook official". Haha. Just joking. But anyway, made these cookies. It was a good day! We took the munchkin with us to eat dinner with some gift cards we got for Christmas =) (after all, us being together..made her...haha). We grubbed down! Then just spent the evening enjoying each others company, doing what we love to do -- playing video games, catching up on our latest Netflixed season (Grey's Anatomy), and after the munchkin was asleep for the night, a few drinks. =) I love to hang out with him, he's my bestie. Can't believe how time flies, it's been a wonderfully wild ride!! Thanks babe! =)
Today is a lazy day - I love it. Just hanging out. And this morning...Kisses on the chin...
"Heyyy!!"
