7.21.10

Well, a date for surgery is set for tomorrow morning.  It's an outpatient procedure, and takes about 72 hours for recover,y, so having it on a Friday is a good move.  Problem is that during that time I can't drive, or pick anything up, like say, my daughter.  So, game on for Daddy Erich this weekend.  Luckily he already picks up the slack as needed, so this shouldn't be an issue. 

Took Harper into work for the first time today; she did really well and slept most of the time.  I always said I'd never bring my kids into work, for fear of germs and whatnot, so it's funny that in the "now" I didn't think twice about it. Might as well get that tolerance built up before she heads to daycare, right?

Ahh daycare, something I don't want to even think about, even though it's right around the corner.  I like the place we chose, but am still leery of letting someone else take care of her.  I mean, she'll be spending more time with these people than us, and that's a scary prospect.  Ahh, to be independently wealthy so I could stay home with her.  I don't know how people with multiple kids do it, it's expensive with just one.  I think if we had more than one, I'd definitely weigh the pros and cons of us both working. 

Here are a few more pictures from our daily photo shoots...we do bathtime, then she's in a great mood so we take pictures in cute outfits...enjoy!

Groundhog's Day

So, welcome to 2013!  January was full of busy-ness in the Kant home, what with potty training in full effect, work being super busy and, well, I'm just really tired.  Plus we moved out office into the basement and let's face it, out of sight, out of mind.  And despite the ipad and iphone within arm's reach, I can't figure out how to post from the damned things, so there you have it.  Like I said, January went by in a blur, but luckily the groundog (and more importantly, my mom, whose birthday is also today) didn't see their shadows, so yay! 6 weeks until Spring.  Harper has begun potty training (well, has been in panties full time since late December) and is doing great with the potty piece of it.  The pooping? Not so much, and what sucks is that she really couldn't care less when she drops one in her panties...this mom, however, could do without shaking poop out of panties multiple times a week. Our only saving grace is that she goes to the same place ...

Booker's First Birthday

While he didn't get to go to Disneyworld with us, he did get a pretty high flyin' party.  I may have gone a leeetle overboard with the party.  But hey, you only turn once right, and he may be my last :( Our theme was, Time Flies, and we used my Uncle's vintage toy plane for the invites.  Pretty cute kiddo.  It was also pre haircut, so he still looked like a baby. Of course I can't find that picture, so here is this one.  He's still cute.   Just a small party with family, and he had a great time.  He has already changed so much since this day.  He was just starting to make words and now can say Mama, Dada, Harper, Abs, Dude, and a lot of signs.  He also loves to dance, and is seriously the most cuddly sweet boy you will meet.  We love our little Bubba!

Back at it

When I started this blog, I knew my number one issue was going to be consistently updating it.  I didn't think I'd take a 4 year hiatus,  yet here we are... I stumbled into a friend's post, which motivated me to get back into the writing vs just scrolling--i.e. Facebook and Insta etc.  I make no promises to be timely with posts, but I'm hoping with Booker in preschool in the mornings (and school full time in the Fall-gulp) I may be able to make a better go of it. After a lot of deliberation with Erich, I decided to leave my job after 14 years.  It was a tough decision, because I really enjoyed the people, but the work itself had dwindled due to other circumstances, and I was bored.  So bored.  And the more I sat in front of the screen, the more I grew to hate the job.  So it was time for something new.  I had always wanted to be a stay at home mom with Harper, but financially it just didn't work.  Fast forward 6 years and we found we could ...
