So, as most of you know, HD has been in Boise all week training for his new job. I guess I'm just a big baby but it's been kind of hard for me. Baylee's been missing him too. If I don't let her hear his voice on speaker when he calls, she'll grab the phone from me and try to figure out how to talk to him, and then when it doesn't work she'll get frusturated, throw the phone and cry, and then I have to call him back so she can "talk" to him. She's a smart little girl. Today she actually hit redial (I think by accident) after I talked to him and then she got to have a turn to say hi. She doesn't usually say anything she just smiles at the phone and holds it really close to her face. She's also been really clingy this week. Normally, she won't let me hold her for more than a few minutes and then she wants to run off and play but this week she hasn't been letting me put her down. Today was especially hard for her because she had a doctor's appointment and got 6 shots in her legs. She was pretty tough about it but I could tell that it was bothering her today. She falls asleep in my lap and gives me a lots of kisses (the really slobbery kind) which is cute but kinda sad at the same time. The most difficult thing for me has been just sleeping when HD's not here. Poor Baylee has been stuck sleeping with me all week because I just can't sleep by myself anymore. I think I'm going to have a hard time when he's gone for a
month. Although, not having HD around has made me realize all the things I love about him being here. I don't want to go into it too much because I know it'll just be too cheesy and lovey for everyone but I definitly realize how much I love HD when he's not here. The carpet definitly gets vacuumed a lot more when he's home :) He has a bit of a fettish with that. I also even miss watching ESPN with him all the time, and how cute it is when he plays with Baylee. I don't know. I'm and emotional wreck though. On Sunday at church I ended up passing out right when the relief society president came over to see how I was doing. Luckliy she caught me, but it was pretty embarrassing sitting there in the hall on the floor in my dress with a bunch of people asking if I'm okay. But because of that the relief society president has been sending people in our ward to my house every day to check on me. I definitly don't mind the company and they always seem to bring fruits and veggies from their gardens. There are a lot of really sweet people in my ward. One of my neighbors who goes to the student ward has been SSSOOO much help to me this week. Her name is Mary. She has a daughter Emily who is about 6 months older than Baylee and they have been coming over to visit me every day this week too. We went to the library and got some kids books on wednesday and baylee's been having a lot of fun with those. She also made me dinner a couple of times, she goes walking with me in the mornings and she even watched Baylee for me a couple of times, once because she could tell how tired I was and insisted that I take a nap, and another time when I was having a bad pass-out morning. It's wonderful having such good friends around me. Even though HD leaving for a week isn't that big of a deal as I think it is, my ward and my friends have definilty made it easier on me. Anyways, that's just some stuff I've been thinking about this week, but now I am definitly tired so I'll go get Baylee and go to bed.
Here's Baylee cuddling with daddy when he got home from work today. I thought it was so cute. HD was pretty tired.. he's still sleeping now :)
Baylee likes to put our clothes on her. This is HD's shirt being worn like a cape. She also likes to put shorts on her head.
This is Baylee trying to get the camera from me.
This is when I wouldn't let her have it.. :)
Baylee decided that she had to walk with a cup on her foot.
Posing for the camera
She's really good at smiling on demand, unlike HD and I :)
Here is Baylee eating corn. I don't know why Britany wanted to show you this, she just did. I feel like a missionary again any time she eats something different we need to take a picture and send it to our parents. This led me to a different thought why is it that I could go away for TWO YEARS with one set of nail clippers and come back with the exact same pair. Now that I am Married we have like 10 and I cant find a single pair when I need them! Oh and with Britany not working, now she has a lot more time on her hands and is trying to occupy it with learning how to cook. Here is her first pie. It tasted good I will give her that. Normally it take a few tries. And no we did not give any to Baylee or I bet you would have gotten a picture of that also. Now you know why she has the rolls. All she does is eat on our blog. Another thing that just came to mind, Britany is now starting to get a bigger belly. (even though she has dropped about ten pounds since she actually got pregnant. I thought I would throw that in so she doesn't kill me for saying she has a belly) Ok but she is pregnant so she can have a belly. But she has a pair of pregnant overalls that she feels invincible in I think. She will roll around with the dog in the park, Play in the dirt with Baylee, but the best thing is she cleans in them. I kid you not today she was looking for them and the grout on the tiles UNDER the stove got scrubbed. It is like that any time she puts them on. She just feels like she needs to be on the Dirty Jobs show. I told her the other day that she looked hot in them so that the house would get cleaned more often like that. Any ways that just came to my mind. So husbands that actually read these blog things, go try it out. Maybe behind your toilet might get cleaned like mine is.
So a recent thing of Baylee's is to climb into the little cupboard next to the oven, but this time she couldn't get back out again, and it was pretty funny to watch so we filmed it.
Here she is sharing her toys with the dog.
Here she is eating cake on her B-day. As you can see she tried to get the whole thing in at once.
