I'm not sure when it started but if I have to go to the "ladies room" even if only a little, and I sneeze, cough, or laugh too hard, yes, you guessed it - I pee on myself. Sometimes it's a drip and sometimes I'm oh so thankful that i wore a very large sanitary natpkin that day. Since I've had an upper respiratory infection this week along with almost having bronchitis, I have coughed and had extensive amount of "accidents" this week. Hell I've changed my undies three times already in the last 15 hours. Maybe a little too much information but I'm watching my baby girl play on the floor and have to run to the bathroom to take care of things and I think...this really is the life.
Maybe I don't have EVERYTHING I've ever wanted, but I mean who in the world really does?
Da-Da - everything is Da-Da and that is all I need. She is everything, she's part of me and part of Carey and although I wish Carey and I could run off to Italy (it's my dream) I can't imagine looking down and not seeing Claire's beautiful blue eyes looking at me and her saying "Da-da."
I've been experiencing a few struggles, nothing that I can't get through, just comes with the life I guess. Right now I just wish I could get that credit card paid off. It's been a few months and it's still a lot higher than I would like. Not too bad, but it's there and so anything over $500 is too much. Really anything at all is just too much.
Carey is sleeping in of course. He asked me last night before he left to go play music and of course I had to remind him that every Saturday that is is off, I left him sleep late. Sleeping late for me is 8 o'clock.
As usual I got side tracked. What made me want to write today was last night while watching the movie Burlesque, I heard an old song by Mazzy Star. It literally brought me back to 1997, NLU, Slater hall and listening to that over and over because it's all Amber would play. It's amazing to look back and see how much things have changed in 20 years. And Yes it's almost been 20 years. WOW. Still friends with that all girl too. Miss her dearly and wish the crew could get together more often. Then again, this is life.
Still it's great.
Carey and Gwen

Da Da Da Da
Claire is saying Da-da of course, but talking up a storm, I wonder where she gets that from? Everything is Da-da and occassionally I do get a Ma-Ma. More often that not it's when she's fussing or crying, she has gotten a bit attached to me lately.
She turned 8 months yesterday (Saturday) and I can't believe how quickly time has flown by. She is walking very well with her walking toy and around the ottoman or along the sofa, she LOVES putting anything and everything in her mouth, still very addicted to eating her shoes or my shoes or just shoes.
We experienced her first "pick up from school sick" which resulted in a doctor visit and conjuntivitis. Little peanut was not into the cleaning of her eyes or her nose. She spent the day with Gran Nan (Cindy) on Friday and we are so thankful that it worked out that way. Neither Nana nor Mamere had the Friday off and usually one of them does.
I'm sick now with an upper respiratory infection. YAY. I'm on a ton of meds so hopefully they'll kick in soon. Whether I work from home tomorrow or go into the office is still up in the air. Regardless, Claire is headed to day care.
She has recently learned how to say "Ta-Ta" which for us southerners means "NO, give it to me." So when you say "Ta-Ta, Mama" she hands you whatever it is she is holding and says Ta-Ta. She also says bye bye, which I'll post and "Tigah's" she's a little genius I tell ya.
So blessed to be her Mom, best gift in the entire world. Truly God's most precious gift.
On a side note a close friend of mine is finally pregnant and I'm just so thrilled. It's still hush hush but I'm keeping her and her husband in my prayers for a safe delivery and a healthy baby! Can't wait. Can't wait for Corie LeBLanc Howell to have those twins and excited to meet Henry Kremke, which I'm yet to do. Need to make a trip to Houston soon. I miss my Micheller.
Gave up Facebook for Lent a little early this year and so far it's been great. I'm enjoying the time, I'm yet to pick up a book and read in it's place but still I'm getting there.
Work is work but thankfully I'm super busy and the day goes by very quickly. No matter what, I'm always looking forward to the weekends, especially those that I get to spend with Carey. :)
