A letter from Awesome Mommy to Awesome Baby

i had my birthday recently!!! Awesome Mommy and Awesome Daddy threw a party for me! Check out the pics below and also the letters Mommy and Daddy gave me!

*** From Awesome Mommy***
My Dearest Awesome Baby,

Today you turn one. The day you were born seems like it was just yesterday. Mama has had many exciting moments but all pale in comparison to your birth. You were so tiny, so soft, and so beautiful. My heart started to melt when the nurse put you on my chest. I know you are an angel from heaven.

You gave us your first toothless grin when you were six weeks old. Daddy heard your first laugh when you were two and half months. You started to grab and hold small toys one week after that. At three months, you had fun by reaching for your feet and slowly pull them into your mouth. Then you quickly learned to flip over from your back to your tummy. At four months, we introduced green peas as your first solid food. Mommy has been preparing all of your baby food from scratch since then. You love egg, fish, chicken, carrot, zucchini, tomato… you enjoy almost every kind of food (expect for beets). Mama knows that is from my side of family :) You were able to sit without support a week before five months. Your first tooth appeared during your first Xmas and you have 10 teeth now. You started to say baba at eight months, which made mama very jealous. You say “baba” every time he comes home and only say “mama” when you cry or want something ;) At nine months, you became an official crawler. You are standing on your own and learning to walk now. For the first time, you opened your little arms and ran to mama with a big smile on your face. You rocked my world!

You are such a social person and always smiling at the people at the park. You clap your hands when you are happy and wave when you know people are leaving. Your love of music has grown exponentially. Your favorite songs are the ones with fast lyrics and songs you can really dance to. You bob your head to anything with a beat. Grandpa promised to buy you a piano when you are older.

Your favorite toys are mama’s laptop and iPhone. You like to hit the keyboard hard to see the screen changes and you like to move your tiny fingers to find where the music is hiding. Everyone has to be completely silent while you are eating or you won’t eat anything at all because you will be searching where the sound came from. You like to play with your food and bang on things with your spoon. You are a messy eater and food ends up all over your face, hands, and clothes.

Awesome Baby, I don’t think it is possible that I could love you any more than I do. You are so dear and special to me. You have taught me so many things. You complete my life and bring joy to our family. I absolutely adore being your mom. This last year has been filled with priceless memories and I look forward to so many more to come.

You are my greatest joy. Happy 1st Birthday!

Love,
Awesome Mommy

Possible Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) – Weird things Daddy used to do




Previously i mentioned some of the weird habits people from the interwebs do. Well, here is a list of weird things Daddy did when he was little. Some of these things he still continues to do. What a weirdo.

Daddy’s weird habits from his childhood (and some from adulthood):

  • Radio volume can never be on 13. If radio volume is at 9 or 11 then Daddy readjusts it to 10.

  • If Daddy is eating or drinking and somebody farts he protects his food/drink by exhaling and blowing a wall of air in front of his food/drink.
  • When drinking soda from an already open can he expels a little bit to remove the “contaminated” top layer.
  • When walking on a sidewalk, Daddy tries to avoid stepping on the lines. If he steps on one then he has to step on another line with the other foot to even it out.
  • When Daddy surfs the TV and happens upon a movie to watch he will continue to watch it on the TV with the commercials even if he has the DVD at home. He feels like he’s watching it at the same time with the rest of the world and doesn’t want to “miss out” on the group experience.
  • In a scary environment like coming home to a dark empty house or walking into a dark empty room Daddy will shout, “Ok you can come out! I know you’re there!” So if there is a murderer hiding he will come out because he thinks Daddy knows he’s there.
  • When eating Lucky Charms cereal Daddy eats all the plain oats first so he can save all the marshmallows for last as dessert.
  • After flushing the toilet Daddy exhales and blows a wall of air directly in front of him to repel the flush particles.
  • Sometimes when handling something that might be dirty or disgusting, Daddy uses only his pinky finger because it’s the least important finger.
  • After turning off the light to go to bed, Daddy will jump into bed from far away so the monsters under his bed can’t grab his ankles.
  • Knowing he can hold his breath for 2 minutes Daddy can calculate how many breaths need to be held until a boring class is over. So a 1 hour class will be done after 20 breaths (with 1 minute break in between). Proceed to hold breath 20 times. Give up after doing it twice.
  • All bills in Daddy’s wallet must be facing the same way and in order from largest to smallest.
  • When eating Cheetos Daddy doesn’t clean his fingers at all so he can build up a large amount of Cheetos powder on his fingers and then lick it all off at the very end as dessert.
  • Sometimes while showering Daddy will peek around the curtain to make sure a monster isn’t there. Daddy now only buys transparent shower curtains.
  • At the grocery store Daddy never grabs the first item on the shelf. He grabs one of the items behind it. Sometimes people grab stuff and then put it back because they change their minds or it’s defective. Therefore the first item on the shelf is more likely to have been touched by a lot of dirty hands and/or is defective.

  • Possible Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)




    Everybody has weird habits. Some of these habits make a little bit of sense and some make absolutely zero sense but we continue to do them anyway. We assume we must be the only crazy person in the entire world that does them. Surprisingly these weird habits are more common then we think. Here’s a list of things people on the interwebs have said they do. Do you do any of these weird things?

    Weird habits people on the Internet say they do:

  • I always keep the radio/TV volume on an even number.
  • Food on my plate must be separated and not touch.
  • I position every bottle in the shower with the labels facing out and parallel to the wall.
  • If I fart while I’m under the covers I flap the covers a bit to let the fart particles (farticles) get out.
  • I always make the bills in my wallet face forward (so they don’t kiss each other) and the last bill faces the other way so no one can sneak up on them.
  • I always check the backside of a piece of paper first before reading it because if I don’t then
  • I can’t concentrate on reading the frontside because I’ll be thinking, “is there something awesome on the back that I’m missing?”

  • I take off all my clothes before I poop. Even my watch.
  • I re-read the emails I send but only after I’ve sent them.
  • Every once in a while I look in the glove compartment to see if I’ve left something for myself from the future just in case I’ve figured out time traveling.
  • Whenever I open a door at home I always make it bounce off the wall in case there is a ninja hiding behind it.
  • Before I go to bed, I would go around my house and make sure that no object was by itself. If there was a lone toy or something on the floor I would move it close to something else of similar size so it would have a friend to talk to at night.
  • Just before going to bed I turn my pillow over so my face doesn’t touch the dusty side.
  • If I spin a pen clockwise then I must spin it in the opposite direction to even it out.
  • I talk to myself while driving in my car but I don’t want to look like an idiot so I hold my cell phone to my ear.
