Well, as you can see, my blog has a new title. According to my brother, I wasn't living up to the title of Lazy Mom. Guess I've been busy. So....now my blog is titled, A Windy Day. Very fitting. I am all over the place...sometimes physically, sometimes mentally. What can I say? I am a mom...and a wife and that can surely make us "mental" sometimes. Love you honey. :)
Today was one of those "Windy" days. I don't know about the rest of you, but when we had a child, our house turned into a toy store! Our house isn't tiny overall, but the downstairs is pretty small. We intended for all of the toys to go upstairs, but that never happen. We spent most of our time downstairs and so did all the toys. We noticed that our living room was slowly being swallowed up by all of this stuff. How does one child have soooo much crap??! And she has only been around for 2 1/2 years! I cannot imagine having another kid...let alone a boy who would have totally different toys. We just don't have room! Anyway, today the kid and I were very busy. We moved her kitchen set upstairs to our loft (or second living room). The doll house also went upstairs. This made the BIGGEST difference! It was almost as if we got our downstairs living room back! And the best part is, the kid wanted to play upstairs with the "new" toys. I say new because they are in a different spot and it was though she just played with it all for the first time. Anyway, so this means I had the downstairs TV to myself as well as some quiet time to organize the rest of her junk! Fantastic!! I am so happy that I finally did this. I have been talking about moving her stuff upstairs for MONTHS, but I have just been too lazy or busy working. Well, no more excuses folks! Next we just need to get the extra room cleared out and turned into an office.... By the time that finally happens, I will probably have another kid and we will need to figure out a place for that. I can't believe we are already outgrowing this place. Oh well. We will make it work. We always do.
The kid has been napping for just over an hour and I have a Grey's Anatomy to watch (remember, I have to watch these shows when she is napping because the husband doesn't allow me to control the remote when he is home). Kidding. He just can't stand my shows. Ha ha! I want to watch my shows alone anyway...so when i cry, he won't say, "Are you really crying?" Sor-ry! I'm a girl! I cry!!
Well everyone, have a great weekend. We are smokin a pork butt (or shoulder or something) this weekend. I am sooo excited for that. Only problem is my house will smell like smoked meat for about a week. Oh well. Could be worse I suppose. When i get a chance, I will post the recipe for our smoked pork. The husband makes a fantastic rub and has a great method for smoking the pig (he got that from a friend).
Talk to you soon!

I catch up on all my shows during the day when baby is either playing or napping. Cory doesn't like any of the shows I watch. I too ALWAYS cry at Grey's! I do like th ename change! Isn't it crazy how you probably seem busier now that you are a SAHM than you did when you were working:)
