1. Love him.

2.So thankful for each and every day that I've been given life. 10,221 to be exact.

3. I couldn't feel more blessed to have celebrated my first birthday as a mom yesterday. Who could ask for anything more?

4. We had a baby food break-through Wed night! I posted a video on Facebook.

5. When I woke up this morning, Emma was sleeping on her tummy. That's a first.

6. I could drink a Chai Latte every day. But I'd be broke.

6. Totally dismayed about the fact that I'm gaining weight at warp speed since I quit breast feeding.

7. We've switched from Target diapers to Stater Brothers and we like them way better! (They're a lot like Luvs.) Still using Target formula.

8. Made PW's Chicken Tortilla Soup Wed night. It was delicious.

9. Stayed up til 11 last night (I know, crazy huh?) finishing the latest Nicholas Sparks novel, Safe Haven.

10. We are kind of addicted to The Big Bang Theory.

11. I need a trim, but I'm afraid to go in because I have yet to meet a hair stylist who understands the concept of needing a trim when you're trying to grow your hair out.

12. I made Chocolate Satin pie for pi day on Monday (3.14), but it turned out more like pie soup.

13. Have I mentioned that we paid off our Jeep!!!!!!!!?!

14. I got the sweetest card from my brother-in-law this morning. It made me cry. He's such a great uncle, and he is so cute because he sends gifts for Emma all the time too.

15. We will have grass in our backyard in a month! Can't wait to lay on a blanket and play with Emma under the tree!

16. I got a cast iron reversible grill/griddle from my hubby for my birthday. Funny how he knows exactly what I want even before I think of it :)

17. Wearing my first pair of rainbows today courtesy of my in-laws. Excited.

18. Also really excited about the set of ramekins I got from my MIL. Can't wait to make creme brulee.
