I really am a mom.....

Well yesterday was my defining moment as a mom. You would think the nine months of housing another human being, the morning sickness, the labor, the delivery, the past three months of diapers, feedings as well as a host of other things would have clued me into the fact that I am a mom..... but no. It took something totally different, something that I never really thought of. Something I did everytime I saw one of my friends' moms at school, church or somewhere in town. I walked into Landon's daycare, two little boys about the ages of two and four had beat us there. His babysitter was in the other room fixing pancakes when it happened. The four year old took one look and me and bellowed into the other room (like only a four year old boy can do), " CHERYL, LANDON'S MOM IS HERE!" Yep, thats it ladies... I am no longer Ashleigh, I am now Landon's Mom. My defining moment, it took a four year old to tell me. I looked and Landon at that moment and thought to myself, Wow, I really am a mom.... I have to start being responsible. Who would have thought, me, responsible?!? :) I guess I don't have a choice anymore!

I know this isn't a "how we are kind of post" but I thought you might like to read about my moment.... XOXO Love you!

Don't expect me to be good at this... :)

Well, because I love my cousins so much I decided to go ahead and start this thing. Please don't judge, I am not a great writer and not doing this because I am... it will simply be a place to write what we have been up to and how our life changes. Right now I am waiting for my sleepy husband and son to wake up so I can try to convince them that driving to Bolingbrooke (spelling?) is a excellent idea.. I want to go to IKEA! :) The good news along with that.. Landon slept in his crib last night for six hours before waking up!!! He has been sleeping through the night since he was 7 weeks but the Dr. had him sleeping in his carseat due to some Bronchitis issues... sleeping in his crib hasn't been so great, so last night was AWESOME!

Yesterday we spent the day at Grandma's eating fried fish and chicken. It was an excellent time had by everyone. I think they enjoyed seeing Nick and I, but I am feeling a tad left out because I am no longer the one they want to see... Landon has taken that role over! ***Note the picture!

School is going great, although it's importance level has dropped a tad since October. Hopefully, this semester will go a little smoother and I will feel like I have my head on straight again. However, I won't be suprised if that doesn't happen again for the next 18 years or so... my poor students. :)

Well that is all for now, I don't really know what else to talk about, but I will try my best to keep you informed. Miss you bunches!
