Our little Lauren is 9 months! I can't believe how fast time flies. She is really enjoying the heat by swimming in her new pool. We bought her a fuschia pink swimsuit from Gymboree adorned with ruffles and a built-in diaper cover. (We still use a diaper on her though!!) Lauren loves splashing in the water and kicking her toes.
As for me, life is really really good. I never thought I'd thoroughly enjoy staying at home. I really do. It was a blessing in disguise. Every evening dinner is ready for John when he gets home. The bathrooms are always clean and the living room and bedrooms are clutterless. I think that by having me stay at home it has helped our lives as we are relaxed and comfortable. None of this "racing around trying to get everything done". When John is at work and LL is napping, I am usually cleaning the kitchen counters, dusting, folding and putting away laundry. Then when my daily chore(s) is/are complete, I have time to get on the computer and surf the internet. (Always with a hot vanilla latte in hand!)
Life really is great to me and our family. I am a member of two great mom's groups and we have so much fun going on outings with the little ones. Lauren has made some great friends and so have I.
