Its been awhile....

It has been a long while since I have updated.

Danica is still healing. Every Tuesday we hope to get the vacuum off and hopefully that will come true very soon. Of course after that she will then have dressings that we will have to change here at the house, but things are coming along.

Addison is getting a little bit more personality everyday but we still haven't been able to catch a good smile with a picture yet. My mom and dad came up this last weekend for a visit, dad's first with Addison here. It was a good time and I am sure grand parents enjoyed it even more than we did.

With the spring coming I have decided to focus more on my health and fitness and I have planned to start a couch to 5k routine that I go on my ipod on Monday. Have high hopes for it.

My goals are coming along better but I still need to focus on better time management and getting into a routine. Finally finished the Facebook Effect and have moved on to Bureaucracy: What Government Agencies Do and Why They Do It.

Well have a headache and a crying baby so time to go.

Happy Valentine's Day

Goals

As we float along here waiting for Danica to heal it has been easy to let routine fall by the wayside and with that also good habits have gone and bad ones have cropped in.  With this in mind I will make 5 goals that I will be working on over the next few weeks and also at least one way on each on how to achieve that goal.

1) Eat better (I know its vague right?)
   - A piece of fruit a day. More veggies less red meat.

2) Better management of time
   - Stop getting sucked into the vortex that is instant queue on Netflix and DVR.

3) With said time set aside an hour a day to read and/or work on HTML/CSS lessons.
   - Utilizing the swing for Addison during this time will be vital, to allow me to work and for Danica to sleep

4) Read one book to Addison each day
   - Do during evening or morning active period

5) Cut back on phone usage. (this will be the hardest)
   - Take phone off of silent so I can receive calls and texts but when in living room leave it on table away from my seat.

These are my goals for the next few weeks to work on. Hopefully I can make some progress on them.

Superbowl Sunday and First Sleep In...

We went out to the in-laws house to watch the Steelers lose the Superbowl, fun times were had by all.  Ate a bunch of food, watched Ben "Overrated" Roethlisberger throw away the Superbowl, and we had Mel watch Addison overnight, all of these lead to a very good night of sleep had by both Danica and I.  We got her back today and gave her a good bath because she had two diapers that decided they need not work correctly.  Things have been going pretty well, Addison is having the beginnings of smiles and is developing more and more by the day which is fun and exciting.

Have a doctor appointment tomorrow for Danica and then I have to get some work done on the car. Then on Wednesday I am getting 4 fillings, all on the left side of my face, trust me it wasn't me that scheduled that little diddy. This appointment is at 8:50 in the morning. So basically Wednesday will be awful until like 4 in the afternoon once I get some feeling back in my face.

Well that's that. Below are a couple of pictures of Addison that Mel took at her house today. She is wearing a headband that her sister-in-law on Talyor's side made. She's a little a cutey. And I in no way mean Mel. You can find more about the headbands on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Little-Divas/179042942126696.
