That's Right... I'm back to post my 10 ;)

...on Thursday.
So I've been a little tied up. ;-) The little mini is doing superb. A little KJ, that's what she is. She sleeps for 4 hour stretches thru just about any noise, nurses quick and hard (like she's scared that I'll put them up and not offer again), and wants to see everything when she's awake and does a cute half smile when she sleeps. We're completely in love.
Now here's my 10.

1) Dealing with customer service from my couch stinks. On my "I hope to never deal with you again list" is Regions Bank (still working out stuff from the car accident... from OCTOBER!!!) and Walmart Vision Center (stop holding my contacts hostage!!).

2) The movie Atonement starts slow, but is kinda good. I wouldn't have given it 4 stars, but it'll definitely tickle your mind.

3) When KJ's in charge of groceries, he comes back with the best snacks. The things that I tend not to buy, like oatmeal cakes, donut sticks, and gingerbread men cookies. Yum.

4) I'm becoming quite a professional phone-tagger. I tend to leave a lot of messages and then miss the return calls. Seriously, don't give up on me folks.

5) I whipped out the ole juicer and created white/purple grape juice, apple/pear juice, and tangerine/orange juice. A gentleman from church brought us a huge fruit basket that even I couldn't finish off. So far, all my creations have been wonderful... I just need to find a defrother so that the juice will appeal more to the masses (and by masses I mean KJ).

6) The movie, No Country for Old Men, is psycho. Whoever the main actor is, he plays the role to a tee. So good that just his face was enough to make me cover my eyes. KJ recommends this movie. Me, I'm going for happier movies from here on out.

7) I'm having to practice multi-tasking. I have a bad tendency of dividing my attention up unevenly, which is why I've nursed my poor child's neck and ear more times than I'd like to admit.

8) I've discovered that there is no limit to the amount of HGTV that I can watch.

9) My most comfy pants have all come from Colleen. The pink pair she gave me when she got married (bride's maid gift) and the black pair she gave me when I got married. That girl has a knack for finding the most comfy soft clothes ever.

10) Who am I kidding, you all are only checking in to get word on the mini. hehehe Nope, her site's not up yet, but it's coming. In the mean time, here are a few recent pics and I'm going to try and load a little video.

Happy Thursday all!

Glad to hear from you!!! Just remember to snack while feeding because it can be really draining. Funny how we end up watching the same movies. I gave up on No Country for Old Men because it just didn't make any sense to me. Maybe it requires too much patience for me. Yeah, you are right it is PSYCHO.

The "mimi's" facial features are sooo adorable to me. Loving the big eyes!!!!

Colleen said...

Hooray! She looks so much like you in the video, seriously. And those sweet little rosebud lips! Oh, what a girl!

Girl you guys have all the good stuff oatmeal cakes, donuts, and a juicer. They all sound so good as I babysit my 8am sweet tea.
Also, I am checking in to see about you and little mini. (Post some mamma and baby pics) =)

But since you did post pics of her, just look at that sweet girl.. She was seriously trying to talk, and those bright eyes.

Look at the little diva. I cannot wait to see your. To me it looks like KJ did all the work to get her; she looks so much like him. However she is more beautiful. Sorry KJ.
