{WHW}: Currently

Hey gals! Sorry for being MIA, this week has just gotten away from me and I didn't have time to pull together a post (story of my life as of late I know!)

Before we get into everything, how is today already the last day of February??? What gives? January felt like 400 days and February felt like a week.

Anyway...

Food:

Oh my word, I've been eating all the things lately it feels like! The InstantPot is still a favorite over here and I've been trying out recipes here and there that I find that look relatively easy. So far, we haven't really had any duds which is huge!

MG and I decided on Saturday night on our way home from dinner (with Ella) that we wanted brownies for dessert, so he went out and got the mix, and made them while I was feeding Ella before bed. Added bonus? Whipped cream. Gosh I love that man! :)

Baby:

Somehow my baby will be 10 months old on Friday (I'm basing this off of if February had 30 days). Ella started for real crawling--where we saw it--this weekend and she's off and moving! She's also a little wiggle worm on the changing table now, which makes it OH SO fun to try and put a diaper (or clothes) on a wiggly, flipping, turning body!

She's still the cutest thing ever, too. Duh.

Health:

So I got the distinct "joy" (sarcasm), of experiencing what it feels like to have a cyst in your breast drained by a needle. Yes, you read that right! Ahh the joys that breastfeeding has brought to my life! I had a cyst last week that basically quadrupled in size and was causing me some pain. I got referred by my OB to a breast surgeon/specialist and luckily he was able to see me Friday. The process wasn't so bad, he removed 7 cc of fluid (gag), and it wasn't very painful.

Oh, and did I mention that he was incredibly good looking? Of course he was...

Really hoping this is the last bit of "fun" I get to experience with breastfeeding. Otherwise, I may be saying deuces to it sooner than I'd planned.

Watching:

The Bachelor...begrudgingly. I know I say this a lot but I really want to be done with this show.
The Bachelor Winter Games....I will say this was kind of a dud for me. I was expecting Paradise, but it just wasn't. It was ok, and I liked the ending for Claire and for Ashley. But the rest was pretty meh. I fast forwarded through a LOT of these episodes.

Summer House.....Oh the drama and I love love love it!!! I still don't understand the appeal of Carl. Just no.

Married At First Sight.... I have lots of thoughts on these couples--but I don't think many people watch this show so I won't get into it here.

Real Housewives of BH....I strongly dislike Dorit. I think she's SUPER fake, a liar, and a pot stirrer. No thank you.

Drinking:

In addition to our brownies, MG and I had a bottle of wine that he picked up at our local grocery store. Super cheap and tasty!

Also a recent discovery at Target: California Roots! This is a good one for the cost ($5!) We basically have a bottle on hand all the time at our place!

Nerves:

Tomorrow MG goes to register Ella for "preschool" (aka daycare). I guess it's just hard for me to imagine her at 16 months (in general), and being in a tiny little classroom all day. We've been spoiled by having my friend watch her, and having that comfort. MG is somehow totally ok with this, and maybe it's a mom thing, but I just feel like she's SO little...

I keep telling myself that if we end up not liking it, we can always find another in-home daycare place....it's just so hard to hand off your baby to someone else.

Work:

My lazy coworker strikes again! An email Monday morning at 9:07 telling me that goals for a student are being sent home that day and could I write them by the end of the day? 

CAN I? Yes....Did I? No, I surely didn't because this is the FOURTH time she's requested that I do something 1) last minute and 2) that she's completely capable of doing herself. It would never dawn on me to put something on someone else that I could just as easily do in the time it takes to write and send an email about it. 

So I didn't, until the very end of the day, when school was over. And then I wrote the other teacher and explained how I was told about it last minute and that's why they goals weren't in (in case she told her that it was my fault). I'm sick of her laziness and it falling on me!
