Productivity

Oh my little girl. She is such a looker...so much a looker that one gentleman said she had "bedroom eyes." Not gonna lie, that creeped me out a little bit, but what can I say, she's mesmorizing! lol.

It is not easy being as productive as I'd like to be. I still have things that haven't been checked off the to-do list from when I pregnant with Gianna! Some days, I feel very productive and other times...not-so-much. Let me explain. See, I used to be able to jump in the car at 11am, check out of the grocery store at 11:25, stop at the NEX to check out a pair of shoes I'd been eyeing, get back in the car at 11:35, get back on base and fill up the tank by 11:50, drop off a package at the post office at noon and then get back to the house by five after. NOW, with a baby in tow, it takes me that ENTIRE amount of time just to get ready and packed up in the car. So now, when I'm at the grocery store, I get a little frustrated when we have to entertain EVERY person that stops to admire those beautiful blue eyes and those sweet chubby cheeks. It takes 10 minutes just to go down 3 aisles! But...I should be thankful for those beautiful eyes. I am a mother. A stay-a-home mother. A homemaker. And my life...my life is now her and my husband. Everything for them. Although it takes more time to do the things of life, it forces me to slow down. To see and cherish my daughter's "beautiful blues" each and every time a new person comes to admire them, just as if I, too, were seeing them for the very first time. After all, I am blessed to be able to be at the store with my little girl...to be with her every day and watch her grow.

Thank you for working so hard, Craiger.
