I Am Winning At All The Things

Can I get a what what?? Thanks for that one Erica. 

Today the Nub finished his applesauce, pushed the bowl towards me and said "Mom, I totally killed it", and I realized that I am truly winning at motherhood and life because my kid is awesome. 

My birthday happened. Yeah, I'm 31. I bought myself several things from the Target and felt good about it because I am wise and seasoned and I know where they hide all of the clearance items in the home goods section. My in-laws got me new dishes for my kitchen and I was totally excited about it which means I have successfully crossed the chasm from young and hip to tragic and turtlenecks with seasonal sweaters. You know what I'm talking about, so does your 3rd grade teacher. Unless that teacher is in Utah because most of the teachers in Utah are like 22 and still pretty attractive... until they teach for a year or two and realize the state of Utah pays them as much as the average parking attendant makes anywhere else and they go and get married and pop out a few kids instead or leave for greener pastures. The future is bright for the children of Utah! But really, thanks teachers who stick around, you guys are heroes. 

Did you have a happy Thanksgiving? I still haven't stopped eating and it's starting to get gross, there's just so much bloat. I've worn leggings for 2 days straight because zippers are the enemy. Also, I finally got to see the new Bond movie (in my leggings of course) and it did not disappoint. Not one bit.

My eyes are starting to go crossed because I forgot my glasses at Connie's house yesterday where I was trying to read a book after dinner and then realized that was stupid because I had an open invitation to nap at will, which is when I set them all on top of the piano and did just that. Tomorrow I have to wake up early and bake something for the annual "Thanksgiving 2 days after Thanksgiving" family party that pretty much I can't wait to attend.

Or can I.
