Change

A lot has changed since my last blog, including the title. Reed All About It, a clever play on my last name. Alright, maybe not so clever but I sure thought it was a cute way to tie in my name.

Karoline has grown into such a fun little person. She smiles and laughs and also puts up the best nap time fights, as she is right now. I'm trying to do this to keep myself occupied. She has been feed and changed, I know she is tired but man can the girl put up a fight.

Tim and I adore our sweet baby girl, she truly is such a miracle.

I am so blessed to be able to stay home with her and watch her grow. I wouldn't trade all the riches in the world to have to send her off somewhere every day.

That being said, I have found a job that I can do after she goes to bed at night. I am proud to announce that I am an independent consultant for Pampered Chef! When we registered with Pampered Chef for our wedding I came to LOVE the product. I'm looking forward to selling a product that I know I can stand behind.

A great new aspect to being an independent consultant for Pampered Chef is the "catalog" party. Which basically allows anyone anywhere to have a "virtual" party through my personal Pampered Chef website. I am beyond excited about this, I know I will be able to help furnish the kitchen of many friends who are not in Colorado. So, if you are interested in hosting a party or you would like the link to my personal Pampered Chef website please email me: jamie.elizabeth.reed@gmail.com

Hope you all have a great day and that it is Just Right!

I hope you dance!

I have a new daily goal!

My plan is to make sure that when I go to bed at night that I know I had a good day. That's not to say that every day is going to be "perfect" but, I will attempt to have the perfect attitude about every day.

That being said, I do believe that Karoline is teething, she sure did make my first day of having a better attitude a bit difficult. But, we weathered the storm and have made it through most of the day. Poor girl, she really isn't feeling too well.

When I get the choice, I'm going to dance, smile, laugh and love ... so that every day is just right!

To do lists ...

Do you ever find yourself wanting to do so much but for some reason or another you just don't do it?

I always find myself thinking that I want to do so many things and get disappointed with myself when I don't do them. The schedule that my husband is on for work I think plays a part in this. By the time we get up and going it's mid to late morning and when he is home I want to spend all of my time with him. This leaves me with the option to do things once he leaves. Well at this point in time I have already made breakfast, lunch and packed his dinner box, not to mention all of the other ins and outs of taking care of Karoline. And well, I am just about exhausted.

However, I've found that if I make myself a list of the things I want to do then it doesn't seem like I am as overwhelmed by these things rolling around in my head. Often times the list is actually shorter and more manageable then I think it is!

I'm off to make my list, I hope your day was just right.

Mommy/Wife

The mommy/wife dairies starts here ...

The first few months of becoming a new mother are a roller coaster! The highs and lows of everyday life occur in such a speed in which it makes the ride seem like a blurr. I am thankful that the ride is always a fun one.

Today my little peanut was a bit gassy, I was a little tired and together we were a force to be reckoned with ... my poor husband. I'm off to bed to try to avoid being sleepy tomorrow. Good night world, I hope you all sleep well!

Learning

Thank goodness for the internet! How did parents before the world wide web survive? I am so thankful that every question I have can be typed into the google bar and ta dah, there's an answer. What a neat and wonderful parenting tool.

Looking forward to this weekend. Tim has two full days off, woohoo! We plan to go golfing, watch a few movies and have dinner with some family on Sunday. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Smiles

I am so blessed to have such a sweet baby girl. Her smiles make every day a new adventure.

Love

Today was a wonderful day! When I woke up I was greeted by a toothless and beautiful smile. My first thought was that I am so thankful that I woke up and so did my daughter. She is such a blessing in my life and I enjoy every minute I get with her.

Babies are such a blessing and joy, I pray all babies are loved.
