today flew by

i'm finding lately that instead of doing things i know need to get done, i'm just sitting down on the floor and playing with my baby.  i loved her a month ago, but honestly, i can't say it enough, my parents are baby whisperers because baby girl is soo much more agreeable and happy and fun loving ever since our trip to atlanta.   so instead of vacuuming (i honestly can't tell you the last time i did that) i just read more books, do more puzzles, and play with more little people toys.  i don't have to do a lot, but just sitting down and playing along side of baby girl makes all the difference to her.  it is amazing and i'm soaking up every bit of it.  i love it.

so that's what this morning was, even though we should have ran errands because we've been out of whole milk since saturday and baby girl ate her last banana for morning snack.  i didn't really care though, we had a really fun morning here at home.  then it was lunch and nap.

i put her town for nap at two... exactly 3 minutes before the previous young women president came over to meet with me and give me the low down.  baby woke up at five.  and at 5:30 we said goodbye to the yw pres  (yes, we met for over three hours and i still feel just as overwhelmed) and started on afternoon snack and making dinner.  what is it about making dinner that gives me anxiety and makes me eighty million times more add than i usually am?!?!  it's supposed to be a quick and easy corn chowder soup and i think i made it over the course of an entire hour.  not exaggerating.

honey came home at 6:40 and grabbed a bit of soup along with some hugs from baby girl and then took a conference call from 7-8.  honey and baby had some quality time reading books in their favorite red chair and then they went up for bed.  honey came back down and we watched the debate (those things make me squirm... i can't handle contention) and then an episode of big bang theory and more political commentary on the news.  now it's 11:30 and time for bed, scriptures, prayers, and sleep.

i swear i'm gonna be eighty before i know it.  every day goes by so fast.  time really does fly when you're having fun.
