on my mind

It's 12:00 and I can't sleep, so why not blog? I have lots of things running through my head, so maybe if I type all out my head will clear and I can get some much needed sleep.

1. It's about time my little monster gets her first haircut. Is it that long you ask? Absolutely not, but she's growing a baby mullet, and we need to get the back evened (does that look right to you?) up with the top. Plus the child was cursed to have unruly hair just like Nathan and me, and the child already has split ends.

2. I am oh, so fat. I have gained, are you ready for this? 50 lbs since Nathan and I have been married, and it's about time I started losing it. Sadly, none of this is baby weight, so I have no excuse. I start dieting every Monday and by Tuesday morning the diet is over. My bf is getting married in June of 2011, so that gives me a year and a half to get my ginormous booty in shape. Although, I hope I don't lose the booty cause Nathan kinda likes it.

3. I love Nathan. He's perfect. I don't deserve him.

4. I love Maya. Right now she's sleeping soundly in her crib, and I just wanna go wake her up and snuggle her, so I think I will.

Good night!

Christmas Eve

It was a fun Christmas at the Hawk-Mathews-Beadle home. The pictures are completely out of order, but cute nonetheless. We have a few Christmas traditions in our family. One of them is opening pajamas on Christmas Eve and another is decorating cookies. Maya definitely enjoyed eating more than decorating. Here are some pictures of our day. Pictures of Christmas day coming soon. Hopefully.

only an aunt

So, I found this picture while I was looking throught my mom's photos, and I died laughing. I'm not sure what happened here, but somehow Megan ended up in the tub with Maya. Maya sure loves her!

one year and 18 days ago...

my beautiful baby girl was born. We had a ladybug-themed birthday party for her on the 19th, and she had a great time. She definitely enjoyed being the center of attention, and she got LOTS of presents. Our living room is now flooded with toys. It's been such a wonderful year having her in our home. I don't know what we ever did without her. She's been such blessing to us, and we look forward to watching her continue to grow and learn new things.

This cute chick...

will be home Saturday, and I can't wait!

My Little Ladybug

Just a couple pictures of my little lady on Halloween.

And she's off...

Maya took her first steps a few weeks ago, and she is harder than ever to keep up with. She still falls down a lot. Sometimes I don't think she's going to live to see her first birthday, but even so I can't believe how well she is doing. She's such a cutie and this is such a fun age. I love watching her grow and learn to new things, but it's sad to see my baby turning into a toddler. Where does the time go?
