Photo Update

I had so much fun finding other blogs through Laura's link up on Monday! If you're hear from that, welcome :) I'm always happy to have new faces!

Cleaning our house yesterday was my #2 priority yesterday, (Jillian being #1 of course), so I actually didn't even check my email until early this morning. We had some dinner guests and one of them is allergic to cats. I made sure everything was dusted and vacuumed so that his allergies didn't bother him. We had a fun time and I think his allergies were kept at bay!

I feel like I haven't posted many pictures this year, so I thought I'd share a few of my favorites from the last week! Since I got my iPhone in December, I've taken most of my photos with it. In case you missed it, I post most of my photos on my Instagram page. {username: courtcog}


{I'm ready for my Mom-of-the-Year Award!}
{Jillian got stuck between the sofa table and the wall. Being the awesome mom I am, I took a photo before I rescued her ;) At least she wasn't crying at the time!} 

{Jillian's hair is getting so long in the front! I used just a clip to pull it back for the first time the other day. She looks so grown up to me!} 

{She really likes the clips on their cardboard container}
{Also, please excuse the Halloween pj pants. I don't have many to choose from} 

{Jillian has been trying to put her sunglasses on herself lately! This particular time, she missed and they got stuck on the collar of her onesie ;)}

{Watching Winnie the Pooh with her Winnie the Pooh Bear <3} 

{This is the closest to standing independently that I can get her. She is just not interested right now, and that is perfectly ok :)} 

{Looking like a big girl in her new Osh Kosh overalls!}
{Still very jealous of her eyelashes too} 

{Having fun in the new tube I bought her!}
{She had so much fun with the one at the library, I figured it would be worth looking for one. I found a decently priced one at Toys R Us and she is having a ball} 

{I feel like I need to explain this one.}
{This is in the middle of me cleaning yesterday, which included mopping, (hence the mop in my hand). We have a handful of light bulbs that are burned out and we haven't had time/money to replace them yet. So, in order to load/unload the washer and dryer, and do other miscellaneous chores, I have to wear my new headlamp I got for Christmas. I'm sure this looks ridiculous, but it gets the job done ;)}

Happy Wednesday y'all!

    1. Oh no problem, and thanks for stopping by!
      Thank you so much :)
      He actually is not. He just got his PhD and is doing medical research for a local start-up company. He just enjoys being called Dr. because it took him 6-1/2 years to finish his degree.

But I Know What It Feels Like

This post is going to be awfully vulnerable and hard for me, but I really want to finally say it out loud. I got permission for my daughter ...
