On the move

So it is official Skyler and I are moving to Missouri. We will only be an hour and a half away, in the Springfield area. This decision has been the hardest but the easiest decision I have ever made. I am not running to or from anything. I have found an AMAZING man who is a wonderful father and I know will treat me and Skyler the way we deserve to be treated. This is my decision for me and Skyler, for our happiness and our future. Call me selfish, call me dumb...I know in my gut this is right and it will work. I am so blessed and I feel so content and right on track.

If it's arriving right on time

You'll never know if you can fly"

The walking path

It's TRUE my little monkey is WALKING! yay!!! She has been trying for a couple months. Every time we would go somewhere someone would say "Oh, she is going to take off any day now! I bet a week!".....well NO, but finally YES! She is all over the place. yay! for not having to carry around a 25 pounder anymore!!!

She is so amazing and she brings so much joy to my life. Before having Sky I had my days were I questioned where my life was headed and regretted decisions that I had made. But I know now that going through the "crap" made me a stronger woman and mother. I can not remember the last time I questioned "why me" or regretted something. Life is what it is...the good and the bad change you and allow you to grow as a person. I try daily to turn the negative things that cross my path into something positive and I dang sure do not hold on to them like I did in the past. These are things I should say I TRY to do because of course I have my moments of being bitter because of something that has happened and there are days I struggle because I get overwhelmed but at the end of the day I never forget to be thankful for my life and the people in it.

The Possible Sling Shot

So I guess I am officially a blogger. I think this is a good way to keep everyone updated on our life and what's going on in it. For example tonight lil Miss Skyler ate with a SPOON! I made Skyler's plate and chopped up her food and had it on the counter cooling off and Nanny put her in her highchair and gave her her plate with a spoon. When I noticed that Nanny had did this I instantly panicked, picturing the whole plate of food on the floor but what I saw was Skyler using her spoon (the wrong end, of coarse) trying to eat her mac n cheese (she loves her mama's homemade mac n cheese!). I went over and helped her with it and she began to eat like a big girl.

It is amazing to me how they figure things out on their own. I thought just last week that I should start trying to have her use a spoon. Dreading it of course because I thought it would be more like teaching her how to use a sling-shot! Which all who knows me...knows this would stress me out. Food slung across the room! EWWWW :/! But it went well and from now on miss Skyler can eat solid food with a spoon or fork...but not anything too runny! lol

Good night, Sleep tight...
