So as you can see from my last blog I did not keep my resolution of updating my blog once a month like I had hoped in this new year, its now March and time for an update. January zoomed by with no real excitement so I will skip into February. We started the month by moving in to our new house! We spent the last few weeks in January painting every room and doing a little updating. After a ton of help from my dad and the salari/morga moving crew we are all settled in and LOVING it. We truly feel so blessed to have such a nice place to call our home.
For Valentines day or should I say week my wonderful husband truly spoiled me. From Wednesday to Sunday(valentines day) I received one gift a day at my front door, first was a tower of treats from Harry and David, next came a note telling me I had an appointment for a prenatal massage-pedicure-manicure and facial, then on Friday I received a dozen roses and Saturday I spent the day at the spa and Sunday was a wonderful Family day to wrap up my week. He is an amazing husband, Thank you honey so much for always being so romantic!
Baby Salari #2 is growing fast and healthy. I hope Anthony will make a final decision on a name real soon because I feel kind of bad just calling him “little brother”. The names are narrowed down to Colin Seamus Salari, Gavin Seamus Salari or Westin Seamus Salari. As you can see the middle name is Seamus, which is after Anthony’s father who passed away a few years ago. I’m rooting for Colin and think I might get my wish ;)
As for Little Miss Lily she is truly blooming! Every morning after Anthony leaves for work she and I go to my moms house to help feed the horses and chickens. It is very important to Lily to get to spend time with my mom and the animals. My mom and Lil have created a routine of feeding the “hooses” and “ickens” then looking for all of the fresh eggs, usually only one or two is found (which can take 45 minutes because it is such a big job for a one year old) once they come back in the house they are both so hungry from all that farm work, so they scramble some of the eggs they have found and have breakfast! (and yes my mom allows Lily to mix the eggs so they usually lose half their meal on the floor) This little routine of theirs is truly adorable to watch, I often sit inside and watch out the window and feel overwhelmed with joy that my daughter has this opportunity to make memories with her grandmother and that she is surround with such amazing family that would take the time to spend every morning with her.
To start the month of March off I joined a moms group called MOPS (Mothers Of Pre Schoolers) My friend Erin who has a little girl that is just about Lily’s age recommended it to me and I enjoyed it so much. The group meets at a church twice a month for a 2 hour meeting. It is just so nice to spend a little time chatting with other Christen mothers who are just learning the ropes of motherhood.
We have a busy few months ahead so I will have a lot of news next time I blog, hopefully it will be before we have our new “little brother.”
