Happy 2nd Birthday Bailey!

Can it really be 2 years since my baby was born? Where has the time gone!!??

I am so blessed to have been given the responsibility of raising this precious little girl. There are so many things I could say, but words just fail to convey what an amazing girl she is and how much Anthony & I love her.

A few pictures for an overview of her short life so far...



Fresh out of mom... one of her first pictures while she was being carried from the OR to the nursery...























This is one of my favorites from the hospital. She was just over 12 hours old in this one.






















Almost one year old. Can't believe how much she has changed and grown since then. Really has gone from a baby to a little girl.























One of her most recents pics, from earlier this month. The smile pretty much sums her up.

Happy 2nd birthday, Bailey Girl!

Meal Plan Monday

I'm sorry I'm such a boring blogger! But really, my life is so boring, you would fall asleep hearing about it. Not that I mind my boring life... don't get me wrong, I love my life!

Anyways, not much going on this week. I'm watching my friend Malisa's baby on Wednesday, so I'm excited about that. Then I have the SF Christmas party on Friday, but other than that, no big plans. Here's my meal plan for the week....


Monday
Pork Chops & Gravy in the Crockpot
Shells & Cheese

Tuesday
Cheeseburger Chili Mac & Cheese (STILL have not had this.... hope to actually make it this time!)

Wednesday
Pizza

Thursday
Chicken Pot Pie

Friday
SF Christmas Party-- hopefully bringing home a plate of leftovers for Anthony :)

Saturday
Headed to VA Beach for a few days

Meal Plan Monday

My life is so crazy right now! I guess Decembers are always like that, but I worked 4 days last week and am working 3 days this week. All you working moms.... I don't know how you do it! My house is suffering big time while I am working. Not to mention how I hate leaving Bailey so much. I think just since she is used to being with Mommy everyday it has been hard on her to be away from me so much... and definitely hard on Mommy to be away from Bailey so much! Anyways, I am really looking forward to Thursday being over so I will be done with working!

On to the (rather simple) meal plan (due to the prior-mentioned work that is draining me and the abundance of Christmas parties).


Monday
Quiz Bowl -- last night!

Tuesday
Loaded Potato Soup

Wednesday
Sausage & Egg Skillet

Thursday
Spaghetti & Meatballs

Friday
Trek Christmas Party

Saturday

Making Pioneer Woman's Cleta Bailey's Toffee Squares for this
