Oh Tuesday........

OKAY!!!!! So I have been on a roll with blogging and it feels GREAT! It's nice to make time for myself to think after the baby goes to sleep. I think about my day, what I am going to do tomorrow and of course wonder how the baby will be tomorrow. He has been out of the house these past two days. Monday- work and today I worked for a few hours and then got together with my sister and my Nana for lunch. I heart them! Lunch was great as usual (vegan style because of the sis) and the company was great. Baby J really seemed to enjoy himself too until he got tired. He has not fully recovered from his cold and to top it all off he has more teeth coming in! Yes..... teeth.... MORE teeth which means he will be drooling and chewing more :/. It also means he will be MUCH crankier than he usually is. Sheesh! How am I going to deal with it?!?!?! I'll figure it out.... I did before and hope it will be easier this time!

After lunch I went shopping with my sister...... I still can't decide if it was a good idea. The thing is, when we get together, we spend money- not huge amounts, but more than we plan. I bought myself some running attire (oh yes, you heard me correctly) because I need to get in shape. It will also get me to go outside with the baby more (which is great for him!). I like being outside, but when you put jogging or any other kind of physical activity (besides swimming), then I don't like it. So........ for the good of the team I must suck it up, force myself to move and tone in the process. Sounds like a lot......

Oh, and by the way my running shorts are environmentally friendly! : P

Today I also got a large rectangular planter and organic potting soil from Target. I plan on either transplanting my herbs into one planter or plant my lettuce and spinach in it. I plan on getting a taller pot to plant my growing tomatoes. I feel like I have ten green fingers than just a green thumb (lol)! My seeds have sprouted and I am ready to plant them. I also have two mango seeds that have started to root (they will go next to the other mango that sprouted a few months ago) and three avocado trees that I hope to plant in a large pot too. I know that the trees I start from the fruit seeds will not give me any fruit, but the leaves are so beautiful and they give me fresh air to breathe!

I have to make sure the plants are out of reach when Baby J starts to walk. He loves to grab the leaves and chew on them. It's okay to do with the herbs but not any of the other plants!

Well I think it is time for me to run off and sleep while I can. Hopefully a full night of sleep is ahead of me and I wake up refreshed! Goodnight to everyone who reads this!

Much love,
-J
