Mommyhood

I know, I know.  I've been very negligent of the blogging world, not that anyone is reading this.  Is anyone reading this??

Life has been crazy.  I've been in and out of the hospital for a kidney stone and another embarrassing problem.  I've been tossing around the idea of blogging about my embarrassing problem but so far I've decided not to.  Solely for the fact of whose hands that information could get into and who torment would result from that.  For these reasons, I still have not made it to work.  But when I receive the clearance to go, I am ready.  I prepared myself physically and emotionally (for the most part) last week Tuesday but I couldn't go because I was in too much pain.

I've also been busy with other projects, as well.  We had professional photographs taken of Payton.  I was still with kidney stone but after my emergency room visit.  But they came out beautifully.

I also recently joined Groupon so I can take advantage of all the wonderful things that families should be doing.  I joined shutterfly and made a book of photographs of Payton from his first three months.  Did I mention he is three months old?!  Just turned 12 weeks yesterday.  I can't wait to see the book but most of all, I made it so Payton will always know what he looked like when he was a baby.  All the precious moments and silly faces that he made as a newborn... you just can't replace that.

I also joined the Museum of Science and Industry through Groupon.  It's something I really hope to take advantage of as a family.  This first year is going to be important in Payton's development and I want to expose him to the world!

My next project.... a new tattoo??  I want to get one for Payton.  I think I've decided on the content but not the location.

My tattoo won't be quite this big!
