"mommy"

Life as mommy sure has its ups and downs but I do throughly enjoy most of it....Especially when Tori yells "Mommy" from her crib in the morning or after her nap time. I longed so much to have a child yell that out and it being for me...I got it....Now I hear it all the time, and it reminds me of that time, when I begged God for a baby.
Tori means the world to me, and I can't imagine my life with out her. However a break every once in a while has been a true blessing. Tom and I had our first over nighter away from our baby girl. It was faboulous to just have some mommy and daddy time in Grand Bend. We both throughly enjoyed the relaxation.
Tori fills our life with Joy, and just like Nana called her, Baby Joy she is....She is 19 months and starting to talk a blue streak...and recently has learned..."Oh Shit"..... Oh dear, mommy, walk, truck, tractor, baby, go go go...All done, "Baa", Moo", Neeeeeeiiiiiiiighhhh", Grammy, potty, poop.

we have a potty for her, and she is learning the idea of a potty and often brings us to the bathroom to sit on the potty, but it is still a game, hopefully the interest will remain, and we can start the training.
Going out for dinner with Tori, no longer works, and mommy and Tori and all other parties end up frusterated....so we leave Tori at home....with a baby sitter of course.
Life is good.
