How much did YOU get done before 7:15 a.m.?


This morning I got up, let the dogs out, baked 6 batches of my famous peanut butter kiss cookies and balanced three bank accounts ALL before 7:15!! Talk about speed racer!! I LOVE mornings. I manage to get so much done. The house is so quiet. Yesterday I worked out, fed Adrey and then Adrey and I went grocery shopping... ALL before 8:00 a.m.!! Yowsers!! I love it!!

Well, today Sarah, Allison, Adrey and I had lunch at Silver Spoon. By the end of lunch, Sarah and I were laughing so hard we could hardly stand it!! The lunch was so chaotic it was comical!! Adrey was content, but making this annoying "ehhh" sound... repetitively, the ENTIRE hour. Seriously, it was "ehhh.... ehhhh.... ehhh.... ehhhhh.... ehhh... ehhh" nonstop! So, picture that in the background and then this... "Allison, get off the floor"... "Allison, get the fork out of your hair".... "Allison, put your shoes on".... (ehhhh.... ehhhhhh.... ehhhh... ehhhh....) "Allison, eat your macaroni".... "Allison, get out from under the table".... (ehhh... ehhhh... ehhh) "Allison, don't double dip, you're sick"... Our phones were ringing, text messages coming in.... and THEN... to top it off, I spilled an ENTIRE glass of water all over EVERYTHING. Seriously, when that happened Sarah and I were about to pee our pants we were laughing so hard! I got a small glimpse of what it will be like with two children!!

Adrey and I almost finished our Christmas shopping today. He was SO good. I absolutely LOVE my days off with him. He's so fun... I know that sounds silly because he's only 4 1/2 months old, but he seriously makes things "fun"! I love talking to him and making him smile. He thinks John and I hung the moon and I love that. Words can't even begin to describe the joy and fulfillment that Adrey has brought to our lives. This will be the best Christmas yet. Hands down.

I can just picture that lunch. It was so funny just reading about it, I can only image the gigglefest of being there. Any Mom can relate.

Adrey has such happy eyes... even though he is a mini John, I think he has your eyes. Am I crazy?

As always...you're super efficient and on the ball Baby! What a wonderful mother. I love the pics of Adrey!! I finally saw a pic where I saw a lot of Dudley! We'll have to go through them together. Adrey just looks like he DOES make everything fun to do as long as he's with you. Love you and can't wait to see you. Merry Christmas!! XOXOXXXOOO
