C is for calories:)

Today started off with Emersyn and I going to the allergy doctor. They were running behind and it quickly ran into Emersyn's nap time. Good thing the doctor loves kids because I was so worried, but he held her and bounced her and played a pretty good game of peek-a-boo!! So an hour, 108 dollars worth of meds, and 5 prescriptions later---let's hope I can breath tomorrow!!! By the way I am on 1 month of antibiodics----I think I have a super-human sinus infection.

Sunday night Emersyn made a great breakthrough and slept in her crib without waking up from 8 until 5 in the morning. That is a Velentine MIRACLE!!!!!! I tried to figure out what I had done differently, and the only thing I could think of was that I read my scriptures before I went to bed (not a habit of mine). I decided I would read my scriptures all day if she would sleep through the night. Last night though I read again and she only slept till 3---I guess we should have had family home evening:). Still ok, but I like 5 better.

Anyway....after a good night of sleep she enjoyed our trip to Craft Warehouse and Costco and REALLY enjoyed her new favorite. Juice!!!! I opened one for myself and after she tried it, there was NO getting it back.

I would also like to mention that yesterday AND today my little girlie was wearing 12month clothes. That makes me have little tears for the loss of my baby---is she tecnically a toddler now????

Ok--enough about the little cutie girl. Here are my favorite C's

1. Cats--I cannot help it. I just love them. Kittens especially, but cats in general. When I was growing up, we always had farm cats. I always loved them and got so darn sad when the coyotes got them or they got ran over. I couldn't help getting attached to them though. Once I hit a cat with my car on the way home from a date. It was past midnight, but I made my mom go out and look and make sure it was dead and not just suffering. My mom is the best and put on her sweats and walked down the road in the middle of the night to check on a dead cat. It was in fact dead:( so sad!!!

2. Calories. I love to eat. Oprah always says that people eat because of emotions, not because of the food. I don't agree. I love the way food tastes and sometimes I eat it just because I like it. Like brownies. I don't eat them cause I am sad, I just hella like brownies, so I eat them.

3. Carbs--you get the picture.

4. Camaras. I love taking pictures of stupid stuff. I love looking back and remembering everything. You have seen the blog--you understand.

5. Cowell, Simon. The judge from American Idol. I love that he doesn't lie. I think if you suck, there has to be someone to say "dude give it up--you suck." I am watching it right now and I wish he was being meaner. Plus, once I saw him give away a bunch of money on Oprah and he actually has a big heart. I loved it when they went to Africa--I wish I had millions of dollars to give away to AIDS victims too.

6. Cowboys. They are just so hot. Dirty jeans, boots, bull riding, what is not to love about them???

7. Craft Warehouse. I love that they have directions for me to follow. I have made many crafts that I would never have tried without such good instructions. Amy and I should really do the commercials for them because we practically own them now I would think.

8. Cars. Hey they pay the bills baby (even the craft bill).

9. Cereal. I would eat it 3 meals a day if I didn't have a Todd to feed. I really love the sugary stuff like captain crunch, but I don't eat that anymore. I like the healthy stuff too. My current love is Special K cinnamon and pecans. Holy cow--throw some pecans into cereal--BRILLIANT!!!

10. Color Crayons. I love coloring when I was growing up and I love it still. I cannot wait to color with Emersyn. When do they stop EATING the crayons????

I am sure there are tons of forgotten C's, but these were the ones jumping around in my head tonight.
