all within a blink of a eye. But, I did enjoyed it. I got a mani and pedi, went shopping, enjoyed a movie, took the scenic route, and purchased a new bedroom set. Therefore, I would like to conclude that my weekend was quite eventful, just the way I likes!

t.g.i.f
Its Friday and I couldn't be any happier ... only a few more hours before I can go get my MisterMarley and allow my weekend to begin!
Wish I was taking a road trip!

the boy just won’t eat
he won’t eat at home, at daycare, or anywhere else for that matter. The doctor said he’s underweight but perfect height. I don’t want him to become greedy but I do want him to eat what I place in front of him to eat. It is beginning to irk me …. I’m stressed!
Is this normal!? I’ve heard of kids being picky eaters but my gee gosh.
So to soothe myself, I logged on my favorite parenting website of all times, parents.com and browsed for solutions. After about 20 minutes of staring at the cutest birthday cakes, I ran across one article titled “Tiny Diners” and I found exactly what I was dreading.
Mister Marley is a style four eater: the extremely discriminating dinner eater. The article states: “Your toddler acts as if eating is torture [so like him]. He'll push the food around on his high-chair tray, but he seems to have no interest in putting it in his mouth [that sounds about right].
So my evaluation I must first, look at what he does eat; which includes a lot of milk and juice and a lot of snacks, which states that I am ruining his appetite for the healthy foods he needs. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no more than 16 to 24 ounces of milk and four to six ounces of fruit juice a day for a one-year-old. The only other liquid your child should drink is water. By sticking to these nutrition guidelines, you'll ensure that your baby's appetite isn't obliterated before his mealtime even begins. [I guess I found our enemy source].
I am not the enemy, nor will I ever be, so this weekend my goal has changed. New goal, getting Mister Marley to eat!

pending weekend
It’s Thursday and the weekend is clouding my mind already! Since I have a job, I live for Friday evenings, Saturdays and Sundays. Shouldn’t everyone love the weekend?
This weekend it’s all about relaxing and enjoying my time off. I plan to wake early Saturday and do something I haven’t done in months! Get a mani and pedi… I’m so in need. My current nails are misshaped and so un-fresh and my toes are worse with chipped yellow polish from a month and a half ago …gross! Since I just received one of the biggest checks in my life, I plan to spurge a bit. The weather is said to be high 70’s, I just can’t wait! I also planned to hit the movies with my Mister man Marley and my niece and nephew and maybe a little shopping. With Saturday planned out, I hope to clean house and make sure all of my house chores are done well in advance cause no one like having to do anything on late Sunday evening.
