Name Changes, New Laptop, Etc...Basically Just Some A Lot of Randoms

***I have decided I couldn't see this little one in my belly kicking around and making my bladder go ca-razy as an Addison. It just wasn't vibing with me....you know? We have now decided on name number three. Which is Madalyn. I'm not sure of the spelling yet...but at least I have a name that won't have me up at nite wondering if it is the name. I think I have officially lost my mind....

***My laptop...yes...that was a lot of fun today. Isabella wanted some strawberries. I think this was bowl, oh, number two? I get up and as I am slicing them I hear a loud noise. I call out to her and she comes into the kitchen with a look of panic. "Uh-oh" is what she tells me. Hmmm...this can't be good. I go and see my beloved laptop on the ground. The screen is ruined. Leo is going to get all the photo's off (thank goodness!! we should have done that a looong time ago) and he went and bought me a new one. I love that man! And I love my new laptop!

***This week has been crazy. Insane. Remember I told you our dog ran away when Leo was in Orlando? I decided earlier this week to go on Craigslist...I wasn't looking for anything, really. I see the lost and found tab thinking maybe? Maybe Chewy will be on there? And wouldn't ya know...there he was. The woman that found him took him in and really liked him. He is a pretty good dog. Oh--she even groomed him! He was due for a haircut....too. funny!

***I am really tired lately. Like exhausted. I think with Isabella's tantrums this week and the early waking up and the crying at nite have pushed to my point of exhaustion. And the fact that I can't fall asleep at nite no matter how exhausted I am. I need my sleep...I'll be 32 weeks on Sat and I have been stressing enough about all we have to do in the upcoming weeks. It's Leo's three day weekend this weekend, so I'm really hoping to sleep. And sleep. And sleep.

***Isabella has now started saying "hhhmmmm" when looking for her things. If I ask her, for example, "Baby, where's your paci?". She'll look at me, puts her finger up to her lips and says, "hhhmmmm"! It cracks me up!! Cutie little girl!

***She can count to ten now!! I am so proud of her. She still wants nothing to do with the abc's. Anytime we start to sing them she screams this piercing scream--but you can tell it's a joking one. It's really funny! I guess those will have to wait until she's a little older....

***She calls Leo Daddy now. And she called me Mommy for the first time today. *sniff* My munchkin is getting older. The next thing I'll know she'll be in kindergarten....

***She's terrified of bugs. Even when they are on tv. She was watching Oswald and there was a fly buzzing around the penguins head. She freaked out. I had to change the channel! We try to show her that bugs aren't bad--even me, who is terrified of anything creepy, crawly, flying and buzzy. I hope it's just a phase...

***My sister is going camping this weekend. Well, it's camping to her...she has a cabin, electricity and water. Oh--and a bed! I keep teasing her about it bc if you know her you know she is NOT the camping type. Today I text her: "Are you in the wilderness yet? Don't be turning all Man vs Wild on me now....". To which she wrote back that they were waiting at her friends' house and she was scared. I hope she has fun--even though it's a work thing that is lasting for a few days. I love you, sis!!

My sister just had her second child and named her Madeline (little different spelling than your name). Love the name. I'm a little biased, I know.

Isabella is too cute!

I love the new name! Everyone is naming their little girls Addison...I know of 5 Addison's under the age of 2! Not even kidding. With Carter I was so afraid I would look at him and think that he wasn't a Carter, but lucky for me he did!

Hooray for new laptops. I wish that was in my near future anytime soon!

Madalyn is a cute name, and I love the spelling you've got in this post.

I also love that you spell nite the same way as me!

Hi Chelle, enjoy reading "all" of the things going on at your house! Sounds like a LOT! Your mom told me of the name change and I love the name Madelyn too.. However you spell it. Sure sounds like that little sweetie (Isabella) is learning so much, so quickly!
Can't believe how fast the time is flying by and hope you will be able to catch up on sleep soon. Are you starting your appts. every 2 weeks now? Know it's about time.
love you gma (and gpa)

Leslie said...

That's a good name choice. :) I like the way you spelled it too. Glad to hear that you found your dog too.

Jill and Rick said...

Yes I love the name Madeline too! Of course I thought that Addison was really cute too. Whatever her name, she'll be precious and we'll love her.
