despite the cough, his mommie and daddy still pulled him away from his crib while taking an afternoon nap to go to his cousin's birthday party. it was at mimi and pop's so all was fine once we got there. double l enjoyed his first piece of ice-cream cake. and I must say, enjoyed every moment.
the romance was just not overflowing at the bday party, so we actually did not celebrate until last night. after double l went to bed, my bub made me a delicious filet, with grilled veggies. it was yummy. he poured me some of my favorite wine and we chatted for what seemed to be forever. it was so nice. but I think I was in bed by 10:00!
now for my vow -- this week I am vowing to be more domestic.
1. I need to make dinner for the family
2. I need to plan a week's menu in advance (but will start later as it's already monday)
3. I need to catch up laundry
4. I need to clean this house -- top to bottom. since we stopped the cleaning service, I have seriously been struggling to keep up.
meanwhile, I really need to get caught up on work too. I know I will do that (which is totally sad to think my family would be neglected). but I am way over do to channel my domestic diva...
any tips on juggling it all :)

we actually did take a walk yesterday, but captain heartbreaker (pjs) couldn't wait and decided to chill out in his stroller for awhile... meanwhile, I love the one slipper on and one slipper who knows where!

Sweet pictures. My little guy also has asthma issues and has to have regular breathing treatments. So glad you found my blog Becoming Me. Thanks so much for your very sweet comment.
It is tough juggling it all. Even after being a stay at home Mom for 8 yrs I still struggle. I do like to follow a blog where she gives great housecleaning and oganizing tips. It's http://simplypersnickety.blogspot.com/. Hang in there and I hope your little one feels better soon!
Juggling it all is an art - that I haven't mastered yet! ;) Double l is such a CUTIE! :) Hope he's feeling better! :)
I don't think I'm legally ALLOWED to give advice on being domestic. If my husband heard the word "domestic" uttered in the same sentence as my name, he'd never stop laughing.
Good luck, though =) That cute little face looks like he's more than worth it!
What a cutie. Hope he feels better soon. I do so much better with my meals when I plan them a week at a time.
Hi Courtney,
I'm so glad you had a fun dinner with your husband! There is nothing more romantic than loving your guy, and being content.

you are so lucky you don't have to cook - does he clean up afterwards as well - or is that your part of the gig??
As for cleaning-we got rid of our service over a year ago as well - it sucks. I really hate to clean - but am a freaky clean freak? Does that make any sense? I can't do ti all at once, in one day - I pick an area each day - and just rotate out.
