Savvy Toddler Mom

Alright, folks, I already miss my Diet Coke… and all I’ve done so far is cut back to ONE a day.  It’s pathetic.

I got home after a crazy day of birthday lunch (Happy b-day again, Katie!), meetings at the office, and north-bound rush hour traffic (ARGH!!!!) to find myself with a serious migraine headache and PINING for a Diet Coke.

It’s probably 90% mental.  Right?

I took some narcotics and managed to feel well enough to go see my friends and their new baby tonight.  Congrats again, Phil & Tiffany!  Your little guy is so adorable.  Sorry – again – that it took me three weeks to come and visit.  (I have issues…)  I will do my best to make it up to you with food and gifts.

ALSO (and I really will put this in a regular card for you, too), thank you so much for the awesome birthday present — a gift card to Heartland Paper Company.  As gifts go, that’s a home run for me.  Thanks, guys!

I got my craft room unburied over the weekend and actually did some scrapbooking, too!  I am seriously starting to think that my hobby isn’t the scrapbooking… it’s the taking of the pictures and the buying of the paper and other embellishments that I love.  Oh, and albums.  And pens.  And things to punch holes with.  Oh, and to haul stuff around in (I got one of those amazing totes for Mother’s Day last year).  Ya know… anything but the actual scrapping. 

It’s sort of an irony, I think.  Scrapbooking REALLY got fun when the toot was born.  But, as soon as he was born, I didn’t have time for it anymore.  What is THAT about?
