...that it's already November. Where the hell has the past 10 months gone?
...that I have a 9 month old child. Seriously, where the hell did the past 9 months go??
...that I resisted all urges to splurge on Halloween candy, only to ruin my success by eating half of a Hershey's cookies and cream bar that some kid dropped on our front porch. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with me?
...that even though I now have the most amazing view from my office, I sort of miss my old cozy office. Having all this space is kind of creepy...not to mention it's freezing next to this giant window.
...that I actually enjoyed the pulled pork BBQ sandwiches we made for dinner last night. I actually lean more towards the side of "hate" when it comes to anything BBQ (ribs, pulled pork, brisket, etc.). But something about making it at home made it super yummy...that and the fact that we used the leanest piece of pork roast ever sold, so there was no disgusting fat hanging off of it.
...that I jinxed myself on facebook by saying I had my great sleeping baby back, because sure enough, he woke up at 3:00am crying.
...that I actually turned off the monitor when he started crying, and passed back out. Todd was the one that eventually got up to go in to Nick's room. whoops.
...that I let Nick sleep in the bed with me from 3:30am - 7:30am. I told myself I wasn't going to let him sleep in our bed anymore for fear of him never wanting to leave our bed, and us never being able to give him a sibling. But dammit, I was tired, and that was the only way I was gonna get some extra zzzz's!
...that I went to Old Navy yesterday with the green light from Todd to spend a little $$ on myself (ok, so it was $10 because we had rewards coupons and I was already going to return stuff anyway), but I didn't buy myself ANYTHING. I did, however, buy lots of socks for Nick...which he needed...but could care less about...so in hindsight, I suppose they really were for me.
...that I have to write Nick's 9 month post...didn't I just write his 8 month post??
...how fast this year is flying by. SLOW DOWN LIFE!
...that I actually said the above statement. Had you seen me 9 months ago, you would've found me on my knees, praying for time to speed up just a bit...hoping Nick would get the hang of sleeping, eating, pooping, gaining weight, etc. I couldn't wait for him to get a little bigger...be a little more interactive. And now I'm kicking myself for wishing away that time. And now that he is bigger, more interactive, and basically the cutest, most fun baby on the planet, I just want to freeze time. Just for a little while...
...that I can't freeze time. :(

I've always been told I'm a freak for not liking BBQ...glad to hear I'm not the only one ;)
I've been told the same! I've never been into BBQ. I actually really love BBQ sauce, but all meat items that are generally made to be smothered in BBQ sauce make me gag.
Where is the blog with Nick in his costumes? xoxox
Thank you.
