funk

I don't know what's going on with me...I just can't get out of this bloggers funk that I've been in for a month or more.

I just don't want to blog...I'd rather be doing something outside or with my daughter and then when she is off to bed, I have other things to do. Dishes, laundry, packing for the next day. Ya know...household chores.

And I'm stressed. Beyond stessed.

And there have been a lot of bigger changes in our lives. I turned 21 on August 8th, Justin and I got engaged *big smile* and we are in the process of becoming homeowners. Wish us luck!

And then there is Laila, who is the most amazing baby ever but times have been tough with her. She has 5 teeth (2 on bottom 3 on top) All her top ones came in almost at the same time. So I'm dealing with a very cranky, teething baby. And I feel SO bad for not being able to take the pain away. Nothing seems to help...at least not for that long. And all the sudden she doesn't want to sleep anywhere but in bed with us or in her swing. I can't even set her in her pack n play without her waking up and screaming her head off.

It's rough and somedays I just want to pull my hair out.

Anyways, what's a post without pictures?

And since I take more photos from my phone...here are some of those.
*taking a nap at starbucks...how she sleeps thru the noise, I have no clue.
*reading her favorite Dr. Seuss book "There's a Wocket in my Pocket"
*playing with her ears during meal time
*standing while barely holding onto anything

P.S. this little girl weighs 17 pounds

Our Weekend - Cell Phone Pics

Our weekend was amazing. The weather was beautiful. The sun was SHINING and it was 85 degrees outside.

This weather can definitely stay!

We went for walks and this made me realize how badly I am out of shape. Time to kick my butt in gear!

She is obsessed with her feet and constantly is chewing on them.

I can't believe she cut a tooth, this scares me. It really makes me realize that I no longer have a newborn and my baby is growing up everyday.

She loves her highchair but HATES baby orajel.

And she had her 4 month check up.

13 pounds 10 ounces (50th percentile)

24 inches (75th percentile, shocker because I'm short)

I can't remember her head size off the top of my head but it's only in the 10th percentile.

(Daddy has a small head)

i'm so sorry.

I've been very absent from blogging. And honestly, I just haven't been in the mood.

AND

Too much is on my mind and I have been trying to relax and spend as much time as possible with Justin and my teething baby.

I'll be back soon, ladies.
