update...bullet form

no time to blog lately, so here are the updates:
-claire is calling chris, "daddyo." just came all of a sudden-no idea where she heard this
-claire sits and watches when she rides in the car. today we drove past her daycare provider's home after going on a long walk and claire said, "there's maureen's house." i point out her house everytime we go by, but never expected that claire would be able to find it given the fact that we were going home after being rather far from home. what a little smarty pants.
-mya is awesome. sleeps, eats and rarely fusses.
-mommy milk is coming more often via pumping. can't take an hour break to feed. haven't given up totally on bf though
-watching dog whisperer in hopes of learning a few tricks to train sophie. she is making life way more challenging than it needs to be.
-chris gave me the greatest gift today--a 2 hour nap...ALONE! i love sleeping with my kiddos, but i am such a light sleeper that i wake up to every little noise, grunt, etc.
-ordered mya's birth announcements. love them, love them, love them.
-had a great day yesterday. invited some friends to go hiking and have a bbq here afterwards. can't believe i actually did this 2 weeks after a c-section as we truly climbed a mountain, but even feel great today. claire loved their little boys and talked about them all night and even this morning. definitely need to provide her socialization more often now that she is out of daycare for the summer.
-1 pound away from where i was at 8 weeks post delivery with claire. the weight is coming off much quicker and easier this time around. loving this! i hope it continues.
-tomorrow begins my new job as a full-time mommy. chris goes back to work after 2 glorious weeks with us. sad.

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really

4 months

We are potentially down to our last four months in Korea. I say "potentially" because it rests solely on where we are going. If we are heading back to the States, we will most likely be leaving early June so that we can enjoy a full summer with family and have time to get settled before Claire begins school. We caught wind today of what could be our next assignment. Although it is far from official word, all of a sudden my tummy is filled with butterflies. I had the privilege of teaching a little first grade girl who was one of a set of quadruplets. They (she and her sisters) are the most delightful little girls. They are well behaved and truly beautiful inside and out. Anyway, their family was due to PCS (military move) in December. I teased her that I was going to follow her and live down the road. While they were house hunting, I continually asked if there was a neighboring house for me. She'd laugh and giggle, not really sure if I was serious or not. Her Mom thought

Progress

I used to be prompt about scrapbooking in Claire's album. After seeing my sister's pictures piled up three children later, I was determined not to have the same fate. I am sure it is difficult for some of you to believe, but since Claire has been born, my free time has been limited. Really, it has. So, our pictures are finding their way into piles too--5 to be exact. However, I am thrilled to say that I finished (ok, they aren't completely finished, but nearly. I only have journaling to do.) six pages. Yes, that's right, I said SIX!! It was a major accomplishment. Here they are for your viewing pleasure. Only 5 more months left to get through....any volunteers? Jessica???
