Busy, Busy, Busy

Sorry I haven't posted in a long time (Hi Mom!). We've been really busy at our house. Phoebe had a show she was in on 10 November. It was Mozart's The Magic Flute. She was fabulous and had a great time. She wants to be in their Winter production, which is Pirates of Penzance. I also just became a Brownie Girl Scout leader and the training and meetings has taken up a lot of my time.

So the big news for today is that I will be platinum blonde for Christmas. I'm at the hair salon right now and getting myself bleached. Can't wait to see it. Also on the fertility front... we're going back to the doctor in January when my insurance changes. It'll be our last ditch attempt to have a second child. I promise to give up coffee, alcohol, etc. for this time trying. I'll be very good and try to be as healthy as I can be.

I'm going to go now and check on blogs and see how everyone is doing. I haven't done that in a long time either.

That's all so exciting! I can't wait to see your hair :) I've been tempted to go chocolate brown but just can't do it...I think I'll always be a blonde!!
Glad to hear from you!

It's about time. I was tired of the same "really busy democratic debate".

Wow, you going to do it (ok, not it)the fertility thing a whirl? What clinic do you use? Now that I realize how frequently I have to go I'm glad that I chose the closest one even though I keep questioning my judgement (should I have gone to the main line one? yada yada).

I'm glad that someone else I "know" will be going through it too. I feel like I'm the only in the the DE Valley.

Take a picture of the glorious blond locks!

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture.  I really like her in red or bright colors.  She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.
