December already!

I can't believe it's December already! And I can't believe that she is almost 1 month old. Holy shit! She continues to grow and change every day. The past week she has been fussy. Not really crying so much just squirmy and seemingly uncomfortable.

I finally figured out how to put together the Graco swing, after hours of frustration...I was trying to put the feet onto the actual legs of the swing rather than the arms that attach to the bottom. Really irritating but in my defense, I was working off of 2 hours of sleep.

I was very, very moody and hormonal today. Very pissy with Preston...very pissy with the world...I took my frustrations out on a very filthy bathroom. Preston does not deep clean...I am not complaining- he does general pickup and keeps our apartment looking tidy...but deep cleaning, organizing, etc are not his cup of tea. I am ok with that...however, I think my little cleaning escapade may have harmed my bits...technically I am still supposed to be taking it easy while I heal and I know I over did it. Not having too much luck in that department. Yesterday I showered and got soap there....that'll make ya jump. I was pretty uncomfortable for the next 5 hours.

I am gearing up for the holidays =) It's my favorite time of year by far...I really get homesick around this time...missing all of the traditions like going to Grammys on Christmas Eve and eating a nice dinner, opening gifts...I hate to see Addison grow up so fast, but I look forward to creating our own Christmas traditions.

We may get our tree tomorrow (a real one of course). I am going shopping this weekend for our Fall Creek Falls TN trip, which is a tradition for Prestons family that has been going on for years and years. Every other year the clan gets together and spends a few days up there...good food, good company. Unfortunately this year will be spent without Sally, Prestons grandmother. She passed last month from stroke complications. She will be very missed. An outspoken southern belle, she always had a quick wit and slight sarcasm that made my day. This blog is dedicated to her.

It's 1:18am...time to try and get some shut eye.
