My first post...
I love reading blogs, have for a while now. It is interesting to read about people and their lives and realize that there are so many people out there like me. People who are busy, people who struggle with various things, people who are wondering where the time has gone...
About us: my husband is an attorney, we've been together for 10+ years and he can still make me laugh. I know that's why we are still together, he can make me laugh at the silliest things.
We have 2 girls. One just turned 8! When in the world did she go from that sweet baby we brought home yesterday to an almost teenager?? I bought a book to help me to talk to her about "growing up" and I have no idea where to start!
Our youngest daughter is 3 1/2 and lives life to the fullest! She is 100% always. My husband always says "If Callie loves you, you have never been more loved. If she's mad at you-watch out!" She's a small version of me and I have a really hard time disciplining her because I "get" her. I'm the same way! Cal has a life threatening allergy to peanuts and tree nuts. Obviously this is a major focus for our lives. I read labels everywhere I go - I have to, people who do not live this every day often misread the ingredients. I find myself trying to explain it to people, but some don't seem to get it. You have to read every label every time - the tiniest bit of nuts could kill her. I'm trying to balance between keeping people informed and keeping Cal safe and not making my 8 year-old into a freak. She's scared to look at peanut butter. Ah, but we'll continue on that saga later.
Tomorrow we are having a spa slumber party for Taylor. I am supposed to make a cake with all her friends sleeping in sleeping bags. HA! Oh, my sweet Taylor thinks her mommy can do anything, but I am so far short of handling this challenge. Will post pics tomorrow - pray that it does not look too bad.
That's all I have time for now.
