A New Chapter!

I am beginning my first week as a stay-at-home mom! I don't count the 3 months when she was born as a SAHM because it was necessary and temporary. I went back to work a lot later than expected because both Kenz and I had Pertussis(Whooping Cough.) Boo!

So far today has disappointed me. Kenzie's dad let her sleep in until 10am yesterday, therefore throwing off her whole schedule. I am working today to get it back on track and start potty training FOR REALS tomorrow! She has sat on the potty a few times already and had fun putting her hand in the toilet rather than trying to go potty.

I am also trying to recover from my horrible day yesterday. I went to bed Saturday night with a horrendous migraine, which I had already tried to treat with drugs, and got no relief finally falling asleep some time after 12am. I woke up to my alarm at 4am with the same headache. I got ready for work and headed out, the whole time I was driving I was praying I wouldn't spew all over my car. Long story short, I spent some time dry-heaving in the bathroom at work but proceeded to get out there and work my very last shift. It was tough. I was tired, nauseous and my head felt like it was going to explode. My headache eventually went away but I still felt weak and nauseous the rest of the day.

Oh. And NO, I'm not pregnant! :)

I got asked by a co-worker and my husband. Like I've said before, can't a girl be sick without EVERYONE thinking she's PREGNANT!?!?

A baby will be here in about a year....give or take a few months. We're focusing on getting moved into our new house and settling in before we add to our family :)
I can't believe how fast our house was built. It feels like only yesterday we were checking out the model homes and deciding on which one was best for us. We're still missing the landscaping in the front yard.


Our Kitchen counters were put in finally! They look so good and they still have the protective blue film on them! I can't wait for our appliances to be in to see it all tied together.
I am not too fond of the kitchen sink OR the faucet. My first change will in fact be the faucet and hopefully we will be able to get a nice granite sink some day :) But for now, it will do. ;)

This is my adorable little Paige. She has the roughest life ever ;)

I think that's it for now. I am going to try and blog more, hopefully I will have some fun potty training stories to tell in the near future!
