"She eats Ruth Chris"

Short conversation with Jake just after purchasing trial dog food from Pets Mart that was $10.99 for a 4.5# bag:

Me: "see I told you it was the other food. I dont think she liked it becuase it was causing her to have allergies and she knew it. I'm glad we got a new kind of food-we dont even have to put water or cheese on it for her to eat it"

Jake: "Well, if I were eating Ruth Chris just like she is at every meal I'd woof it down like that too and I wouldnt need any cheese!"

Me: "well...{couldnt resist laughing so hard at that comment}"

Jersey..you are spoiled!

Thank You Husband!

After craving homemade lasagna for several weeks and really not feeling actually making it Jake surprised me last night after work with a huge casserole dish full of lasagna! I was so excited-sort of hoping for it, but not sure if he did the lasagna or not-I tried not to get my expectations up about it. YES! I was thinking when I saw the pan on the oven! It was soo good-I must say hes a pretty good cook!

Thanks hun, I love you and appreciate everything extra you have been doing for me!

Sleep Envy

Yesterday I was watching the news and they had a segment on "sleep envy". They talked about how women are less likely to fall asleep as easily as their male counterparts and that some of them even go as far as waking them up in the middle of the night if the men are fast asleep and the they can not sleep (which I thought was funny and mean at the same time).

Before we went to bed last night Jake asked me if I had sleep envy...he saw the same segment on the news...and I said, "of you..yeah". Before he hits the pillow hes out and stays out the entire night-even through my many restroom breaks he doesnt even move! I'm a light sleeper while hes a deep/not light sleeper, but its even more apparent now that Jersey sleeps in our room (cough, cough I mean bed). If she moves, sneezes, breaths hard, etc I hear her and think something is wrong-paranoid I know! Jake may wake up, but again, he falls right back to sleep! I do envy his sleeping situation right now, but not enough to wake him up when I'm having trouble falling back asleep for the 5th time that night. After all, I do take a 2 hour nap before work & he doesnt get a nap!

Things I have a hard time doing well lately...

1. Remembering things

2. Getting up in the morning

3. Getting off the couch when I take a nap

4. Eating many vegetables (Yikes! I know)

5. Making it to the gym

6. Sleeping at night

7. Using the restroom a billion times in the middle of the night

8. Buttoning my pants/zipping them

9. Eating chicken

10. Controlling my emotions

Thats just the ones I can remember right now..hopefully I'll be better at these in the next few weeks.

One a different note-Jake told me tonight that he wasnt ready for a mini van!
