How Landry has grown

First Week Back

Well my first week back wasn't as horrible has one would have thought it would be. I did ok, I didn't get all mushy or cry at all. It helped that I knew that baby girl was going to be with her grandma and cousins and getting love all day. I think I would have been more emotional if Landry went to a babysitter that wasn't family. Landry got spoiled daily and that is what made me feel better about going back to work. I think my co-workers were more concerned how I was feeling and if I was ok with being away from baby girl. They seemed to have asked me daily if I was ok and if was getting easier to leave her in the morning.

Now that I have started week two of being back to work I know our schedule for the morning and what to our routine has to be in order to us to make it out the door in time. Sadly, Landry doesn't know when the weekend is and is still on her schedule but that's ok. As long as she is a happy baby, like she is daily I'll take it. This morning was hard to want to get dressed because little miss just wanted to be around me, she was the happiest that way. When I went to do my hair she got fussy. So this morning it was hard cause she just wanted to be with mommy. I know there will be days that will be harder to go to work than others but hopefully those are few and far between.

2014 Theme

As I listen to a personal trainer/life coach talk about what it believes we all need to motivate our selves to want to be better he asked a great question......."What is your theme for the year?" That is an amazing question. What is my theme for 2014/ I had such a great 2013 with so many memories and so many new adventures. But after some thinking I think i figured out my theme PROGRESS.

The definition of progress is: 

1. Movement, as toward a goal; advance.

2. Development or growth: students who show progress.

3. Steady improvement, as of a society or civilization: a believer in human progress. See Synonyms at development.

4. A ceremonial journey made by a sovereign through his or her realm.

intr.v. pro·gress (pr-grs) pro·gressed, pro·gress·ing, pro·gress·es

1. To advance; proceed: Work on the new building progressed at a rapid rate.

2. To advance toward a higher or better stage; improve steadily: as medical technology progresses.

3. To increase in scope or severity, as a disease taking an unfavorable course.

In this goal I plan to progress in so many different areas. I want to progress in my relationship with my family, Mark and friends. I want to progress to be the best mommy to Landry. I want to progress in my work and passion for agriculture. I want to progress in becoming a better well rounded person. Hopefully I will be able to do this daily.

I think picking a goal for 2014 is a great idea and a way to strive to have a goal. I think this is WAY better than doing a new year resolution. I think from now on it is going to be picking my yearly theme. I look forward to seeing how this theme plays itself out and how I do progress.
