sanity intact!

i made it..i survived! i just wanted to let everyone know!

with a little ok a TON of prayer, some encouraging words from friends and family, and a huuuuge adjustment to Leighton's schedule i came out on the other side with all of my hair, and still perfect vision :)

ill admit that at times my OCD complete control freak, scheduled out, nap nazi side takes over and i forget the best place to look for answers and comfort isn't through a website, blog, or friends ( although these are all places the Lord has blessed me immensely ) its on my knees in prayer.

He hears us. i need to always remember that...always.

SO little girl was wanting a four hour eating schedule instead of 3, and MUCH longer wake times. She was normally awake for 45mins -1hour. Now its an hour and half! pretty big jump! but she seems happy with it..she still wakes a little bit into her nap, but goes back to sleep pretty quick after! and since she started eating every 4 hours instead of 3, that means she dropped one feeding, she stopped spitting up all over me :) woohoo! i can wear normal clothes again! so all and all were both pretty happy.

its crazy to think how much this will all change again 2 months from now. and how in one month she will be half a year...even with the hair pulling days mixed into my angel baby days..this is all going by so fast! it literally flies by without me noticing.

one more confession. i love winter ( thats not the confession ) everything about it..the cold, the rain, the snow, the clothes..oooo the clothes! the anticipation of Christmas as soon as October hits..all the holidays, the music, the food, the decorations...like i said, all of it! { BUT }

i am soooooo excited about spring and summer this year. i cannot wait for it to warm up so we can go on walks outside, I'm dying to buy Leighton her first swimsuit and sit in a plastic pool in the yard during her wake time! ( if you drive by ACU and see us wake HI ) i can't wait for maxi skirts, tank tops with cute necklaces, BIG sunglasses, and MOST of all..planning the biggest and most AWESOME birthday ever for Leighton..who will be ONE in August. shut up right?! is it bad i already lay in bed and think of themes? hmmm...dont judge. if you know me at-all you should expect nothing less! haha!

well...since all is well in our world again, i have to go WAKE UP this girl from her nap...time for dinner and daddy will be home soon for the weekend! we just love weekends and taylor time :)

thanks for putting up with my spastic moment.
