Happy Leap Day!
To celebrate, here is a list of things I'm currently excited about (in no particular order):

• I have a sugar bowl
• I have a pantry in which to keep sugar
• My baby is finally feeling better and may be able to stop using the nebulizer
• I just had a killer visit with my best friend (she's the greatest!!!)
• It is the end of the day on friday
• My temporary washing machine comes tonight
• Grant has a crib!
• 12 inches of snow overnight means I'm stuck at home and don't have any pressure to go anywhere or do anything
• It doesn't matter if pajama pants are wrinkled
• A bath in the big girl tub
• Warm weather scheduled for next Sunday's parade
• Pizza Friday
• No pumping until Monday
• Spring break means good parking spaces
• NO MORE APARTMENT LIVING!

Hope you have a great weekend!

My 250th Post! If I were a television show, I would do some type of flashback monatage showing scenes from past episodes. Instead, I'll share fun photos of my baby becoming a big boy! Granter rolled over yesterday! Yes, he had been rolling over when he was super little-like 3 weeks old-but then he stopped for about 6 weeks. I think he his weight and size caught up with him and he realized he was a tiny baby and he shouldn't have been rolling over yet. Now at three months he is still a little early in the process for rolling over, but it is more age appropriate. Taylor was home with him while he did it (and of course Mommy missed it because she was at work-the first of many milestones I'm sure I'll miss) and remarkably had the camera in his hand. Here is the action series for your enjoying pleasure.

Please note-no blog entries for a few days. We close on the house on Thursday and then we'll be moving (with the help of JJ up from DC! Can't wait to see you babe!) and so not only will we be busy, we won't have borrowed internet to use anymore! Wish us luck!

Happy post VD! Hope you had a nice one. We did our traditional calzone dinner, though very late because Taylor's had a super nutty busy week at work. Today was his big meeting, so hopefully life will settle down for him. I'm looking forward to seeing him tonight!

Did you know that Christina Agulara is now living in Ozzy Ozbourne's old house-the one from the television show? I loved that show! I could watch it for hours at a time. Remember when Ozzy threw the ham? or how excited Jack was that the McRib was back? That was the kind of quality television you just don't see much of these days! Good for Christina-I think it is a house filled with good karma, and neighbors who are really happy for the change!

G-man is still doing well. Not too much new to report with him. He is loving daycare it seems and I have fallen head over feet in love with one of the little girls who goes there. She is always there when I drop him off and she and I are good buddies now. I think that a four year age difference isn't too much for them to overcome and so I'm looking forward to her becoming my daughter in law in about 25 years! Here are photos of the little guy from last weekend. He likes his Bumbo seat and has also decided he is a thumb sucker!

Praise Be! I made it to work by 1:00 and the Writers Strike is finally over. New television by April and my skid across the ice didn't end up with drama. Two great things to celebrate on this ridiculously rainy and gross afternoon.

My boy is the only kid at daycare today. How sad for Grant (and Grant's mommy). I like to think that just means he'll get lots of love today. It is "Love Month" at Miss Laura's. I need to get Valentines for him to put in the mailboxes of all of his little friends tomorrow. Seriously, even the three year old is going to understand that G-Man didn't write these himself, just like I'm going to understand that he didn't bake the "love brownies" they are sending home tomorrow. He's pretty busy having other people do things for him for someone who is just three months old. It's a tough life bossing around the adults!

I'm trapped in my apartment! I can't make it up the hill in the crappy weather with my crappy car. I am so ready to move! I'm currently a "little ball of rage"!

Today's word of the day is Noun. A noun is a word that is a person, place, thing, or idea.
Grant sucks his thumb. Grant is the (proper) noun in the sentence.

Grammie and Papa came to visit today. They brought Grant a Bumbo seat-he is so stinking cute in it! We'll post pictures soon.

I survived my first week! Going home to pick up my baby boy and not put him down once for the next 48 hours!

G-Man and I do a word of the day every day. We've had some meaningful ones, some silly ones, and some random ones (my favorite is still galoshes!). Todays word of the day is relief and the sentence we'll use to explain it to him is "What a relief that the weekend is here!" Go celebrate family time with your families tonight!

Thanks for the flowers Jenny! You are the best friend a girl could ask for!

I'm Back!

That's right readers, Heather is back! Are you too excited for words? You should be! Writing while on maternity leave was too much, but today is my first day back at work so I thought I would give a quick hello and let you know that I plan to update my blog once more. Now, don't expect it to be a daily blog (despite the name) but I'll do my best to keep you entertained with the antics Heather and the rest of the fam!



For today, it is going to be random list of things that seem strange now that I'm back in the "real" world. What a place to be

• A desktop computer with a mouse and a full size keyboard. 12 weeks without one and I'm a disaster trying to type!
• Fast internet-when you don't borrow it from a neighbor the web is an amazing place to visit
• people outside of my house are talking about Super Bowl ads. I don't remember seeing them and that seems like it was months ago and I suppose it was only days...
• For the first time in my life, my vote counted!
• There is going to be a whole generation of girls who freak out when they find out they can't get an epidural because they have a tramp stamp. haha!
• Take a baby anywhere and you are like a rockstar

CIS is coming to update my computer, so I have to stop for now...perhaps I'll add to the list as time goes on...

and for those interested in seeing the baby...here is my current fav photo! God I miss him!
