Almost back in my fave jeans!

There's absolutely no reason that should be the title of this post, but I use any excuse to say it! Yes, yes Em will be six weeks on Friday, and I'm back in lots of my pre-pregnancy clothes, but not quite in my favorite jeans yet. I have about 7 pounds to go, but I was kind of chubby before I got pregnant so 12 pounds would be optimal.

Anywho, here's some updated pictures of Emerie. She's just the cutest. She's semi-smiling on her own now, which is beyond cute. I just can't get enough of her. I'm settling in quite nicely to my motherhood situation. Now that we have the boob under control and I've made my peace with the fact that I may never sleep again- we are all good. We're getting out and about some now, so I don't have cabin fever. Family life. Greatness

Let's talk about my thoughts on fall tv so far.

Eastwick- WOW, kinda can't even believe I watched it. It was more than ridiculous. That won't be around long.

Modern Family- Freakin fantastic. Smart. Witty. I love it!

Cougartown- Verdict's still out. It's definitely not a bad show. They just have Courtney Cox (one of my faves) trying to be too funny. She's really quick anyway, so they don't have to try so hard. I'm interested to see where it could go by the 3rd or 4th episode.

The Good Wife- I really liked the first 20 minutes, then I was bored. I'm not sold yet. I may not be smart enough to follow it without any humor.

Grey's, Private Practice, Brothers & Sisters, The Mentalist- All back on my lineup. Love them.

TV and babies- that's all I got. Until next time, it's just another day in the life.

Two Weeks In...

Alright, we're two weeks in to being parents. I've been a mom for two whole weeks... If a picture's worth a thousand words, then I guess we're in good shape. She's still alive, manages to have on cute outfits everyday, weighs a whopping 10 pounds and still eats like a champ! I'd say - so far so good. It's amazing how much she's changed in just a couple of weeks. The top picture is the most recent and they go back from there. She looks so different to me. She has color now and her hair has grown. She also has a little personality, and I fear it's much like her mom's. She's a bit demanding and a little moody. I hoped she'd be laid back and easy going like her dad. Verdict's still out. I'm giving her more time. So anyway- let's talk about the fact that I actually got out of the house for a couple of hours today! Yippe...

Give me a coupon for a free purse at DSW and just 20 short minutes, and I can do some damage. Two pairs of flats, some wedges, a pair of boots and some John and David patent pumps later, I think I got in my retail therapy for the weekend! Oh how I've missed the stores. I also managed to get a pedicure and my eye brows waxed courtesy of my sweet husband, who informed me that I may just have the one eyebrow if I let it go any further. He's such a keeper! It was actually harder than I thought to leave her, but I think I can manage it.

What the hell else is going on? Can someone update me? I've been watching E! and the Food Network, so I know what's going on there. But other than that, I'm in the dark. I know it's time to start narrowing down my selections for Fall tv. With SYTYCD taking up a spot and having a new baby at home, I feel like I can't select too many. Which all that might be a good thing since I'm extremely underwhelmed with the commercials for the new shows. I thought Glee would be really cute, so I watched it the other night. Needless to say- no me gusta. That belongs on the Disney channel or possibly the Family channel. Cougartown looks okay, but I fear it may be a one hit wonder, and all the other medical shows coming out can take their usual backseat to Grey's and Private Practice. Anyone have more suggestions? I do like the Rachel Zoe Project. Big fan!

Anyway, thanks again for all the well wishes, meals and visits. I'll try to keep adding new pictures. Don't expect a birth announcement for about another month! We're taking pictures in a couple of weeks. Until next time,

It's just another day in the life.
