Whoa....

Whoa...Where did the time go??

New year...new beginning...time to move on.

2010 is going to be great. I've already decided. The end of 2009 was stressful to say the least, so it's time to move on. Over the course of my life I have had many many broken bones but no surgeries to speak of. I had surgery when I was an infant, but since I don't remember, I don't think that counts :) Now I am less a gallbladder (and VERY happy about it) and been through a D and C (and not as happy about that). I've figured out that I am a VERY light weight regarding anesthesia and if you are upset when you go into surgery, they tend to keep giving you more....haha!

The child who didn't want to talk, now doesn't stop talking. If you ever want to know anything about anything, just ask Taylor. He now talks about everything... Counts everything (in English and in Spanish), tells you what color they are, asks if he is right about what it is, asks you what you think it is and then wants to know why you aren't talking to him or answering any of his questions. We are also potty trained!! Whoo Hoo!! We only sleep in a pull up and we now make it through the day with NO ACCIDENTS! Not as bad as I thought it would be (knock on wood).

While Taylor has moved forward on the talking, we are still battling eating. I know I know...look at the kid...he's growing fine. He has FINALLY learned that he has to at least try what we offer, and usually he does and then follows with "That wasn't so bad!" Then you ask "Do you want more??" and the most polite three year old I know says "No thank you Mommy." Gotta take what you can get :)

I have also started doing embroidery for a local shop in Maryville, Dandy Lions. I LOVE IT. I was blessed enough to have the opportunity to buy an industrial home machine and it is wonderful. I am still working on redoing the examples and the font book, but everyone should send ALL their embroidery and monogramming to Dandy Lions. I am still taking orders from home, but if you live in the Maryville area just drop it off at the store. I pick up Mondays and Thursdays. Still trying to sell my wonderful old machine. Know anyone who would want it, please let me know!

One of my resolutions is to blog more. If it is written down, I am more accountable. If you have already read it, then I have to follow it. So for the handful of folks out there who might still check this site...here we go!
