5 Things I Can't Live Without

I usually hate doing these things, but I thought, hey. Why not. So here goes, in no particular order:

1) God. Without faith in the Lord, I honestly do not know where I would be. To live in a world without God would be a world not worth it. How could you live everyday without the security of knowing that Jesus has your heart and future in His hands? Although I don't always walk the best walk, I always love God and remember Him.

2) Friends. The show, not the people in this scenario. I love love love my Friends. It's there always, whenever I am in the dumps, it's there when I need a laugh, it's there when I need some familiarity. I love this show. I could never go without having this. When I have had no cable, suffering through without entertainment, it was always there to save me and keep me laughing, no matter how bad I was feeling at the time.

3) Books. I could never live without books. I crave knowledge and willingly read as many books as I can. If I could go back in time and tell my younger self to love books, I would have graeduated validictorian of my class. I love history books, educational books, and opinion books. Just depends on my mood.

4) Dave Matthews Band. I sometimes take a vacation from you, but I always come crawling back. I would be sad to live in a world without you, Dave. Your music has spoken to me on a number of levels, from sadness to happiness to depression. Just when I think I have heard enough and moved on, I always realize how great you are, beg for forgiveness, and go see your concert.

5) Peter Panda ( my stuffed panda ). He has been hanging out in my closet for the last, oh, 10 years or so, but I couldn't imagine him not being around in some capacity. Peter was my lifelong friend, and besides my parents, has known me longer than anyone, including my sisters. He is had been told secrets, watched me grow up and sat so patiently as I disregarded him and threw him on the floor when I got old enough to not care anymore. Peter needs some repairs, he is dirtier than he used to be and needs some stuffing. But my child will get him someday and he will love them just as much as he has me.

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this!  I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...
