True Catholic Girl

In October of 2007, Maddie was baptized into the Catholic Church. And let me just tell you, she is already a true Catholic Girl. The Catholic Guilt is setting in. She walks around the house all the while doing things she is not supposed to do, mumbling to herself “no,no,no,no” shaking her head. It is so funny. I can only imagine what is going through her head. Probably what goes through every good Catholic girl’s head.

“Well, I know this is a sin….but what isn’t around here…I’m just gonna do it and I’ll ask for forgiveness after. I mean, if I don’t sin, how is a girl supposed to have fun anyhow?”

I am trying to get this on video. But it seems I only get either the “no,no,no,no” or the shaking of the head. For some reason I have yet to get it in unison, and that is what makes it cuter than cute.

Today, I shook my finger at her, and she shook hers back at me with a big, devious smile on her face. Boy am I in trouble.

Randoms

Poor little Cam is gassy today and not his usual self. He only wants to be held today. Which means that momma has to sit around more than usual…(thanks Cam for the break!) He is asleep in my arms right now as I type this. Every now and again he squirms and a little, albeit quite stinky fart comes out. blah. Anyhow, not sure what is going on with his little system, but he has also puked a lot today after his bottles. He has already had 3 shirt changes.

He now resides in a cute little shirt that my Mom bought for him and stashed in a drawer in her spare bedroom. (at least I assume it was for him). My sister and I found this said shirt in the drawer with some socks and another shirt purchased from the Gap. I am sure she added on some sale items when purchasing clothes for Maddie.

Anyhow, I have no plan really for this blog post today. But I have this feeling I am just going to blab a bunch of random things, hence the name of the post.

Maddie says “Umm” to mean the word yes now-a-days. It makes me laugh. And I know she picked this up from me, but I am not sure why she thinks it means yes.

Me: “Maddie, do you want to eat lunch?”
her: “Umm” (walking to highchair)

Me: “Maddie do you want to go to Papa’s House?”
Her: “Umm” walking towards the back door.

Me: “Maddie do you want to watch a video”
Her: “Umm” (walking to the living room and sits on her couch facing the TV)

SOO Cute, I love it! She also says the same words for Papa and Paca and Please and Cheese sound exactly the same too. ha. Makes me crack up.
Cameron laughs and smiles so much now. Oh, and does he talk. I was worried since he was a boy that he would not babble much. He doesn’t babble as much as Maddie did, but he still babbles. Enough to make me happy. He also does it in this super sweet tone of voice. He purrs at me too, and that just melts my heart.

My Sis and I are going to pay to get a reading from a Medium. I am so freaking excited about this and I cannot wait! I knew of a medium that I wanted to go see, but I could not find a way to get a hold of her. It is really important to me that it is one who I have heard from someone I trust that this person is ligit. And, I found someone that one of my old High School friends went to see.

I finally got the christmas decorations down… (just yesterday) I know, it took me a while. The funny thing is that Maddie never really bothered with the tree decorations much. Until about last Monday. I think even she knew that the tree should be down. She would take a bulb off and bring it over to me. haha. I was like, OK Maddie, I get the hint!

I am also proud of myself because not only did I take the decorations down, but I cleaned out the old decorations that I do not use each year (gave them to my MIL who is a hoarder) and I organized the decoration closet. In the past few years I have just crammed everything to fit into the closet. Then each holiday when I go in, I have a huge mess to contend with, and don’t even always find what I know is in there. Now the spring stuff is last in the closet, next Halloween/Fall etc. ALso, everything is nicely labeled. It feels good. That is one of the reason it took so long to take the decorations down. I promised myself I would do this organization when I put them away this time. I even made enough room in that closet that I can store some of the bulk paper work/materials I have for my home based business. So that is nice.

I bought the Turbo Jam workout DVDs. They are SOOO Fun. I just got them on Friday, but let me tell you, I can already feel a big difference in my fitness level. Today I was running up and down the stairs. Haven’t felt that good in a while. So I am happy. Oh and the videos are FUN. Infact, I have been thinking about how I can’t wait to do the videos all day now. And that is totally not like me when it comes to exercise videos. I am happy. Now I will be more prepared to start my training for the Breast Cancer 3-day.

mmm, what else? I am trying to think of cute things the kids have been doing. I know there has been many lately, but now I am drawing a blank. This is why I have to blog more often, otherwise I forget this stuff!

I am hungry, but I don’t want to get up and disturb Cam. Plus I have only about another 1/2 hour probably before Maddie wakes from her nap. So I guess I will go surf a bit more- and wait for Maddie to eat lunch together.

“Ho”

I know this post should have come before the Happy New Year one, but what can you say.. I am a slacker.  Here is Maddie on Christmas Eve telling us what Santa says!

It is funny, cause she only says it once.  ha ha.

Happy New Year
