Some things...

I feel like all I ever do is post pictures of the babe so today I am just going to write. I like to think that I use this blog as a journal so I really need to start writing more. Don't get me wrong...I love posting pics of my sweet girl but I find that I never really write very much about what is going on day-to-day with The Bowens. So, forgive me if this becomes a little bit random.

Let's see, I have been back at work for a few months now and I have to say that it is going really well. I am able to work 4 days a week and either my mom or Rob watches Payson while I am gone. I do enjoy having a little bit of time to myself and since business is still slow on The Cape right now, that is exactly what it is...time to myself. I think that I am ready for some customers to start coming in...I am starting to get a little bit B-O-R-E-D!

Rob and I finally bought our tickets to Florida! We are really excited to get down there but I am petrified to be "the ones with the baby" on the plane. I tried to plan our flights so that we wouldn't be traveling when all of the business people are traveling...but I am not sure that is really going to make a difference. Any advice on flying with an infant is totally welcome! My poor husband can't wait to get his feet back on South Florida soil. He is really only living on The Cape for me and I love him so much for that...he is really needing a dose of sunshine and warm weather. Not to mention some quality time spent with his Florida friends and family. Payson is so excited to meet and play with her cousins too.

My healthy lifestyle is, well, not really...healthy. I do great for a couple of days and then not so great for a couple of days. Why am I so inconsistent...I just can't seem to ever follow through with anything. It is very frustrating! I even read a book on ADHD because I think for sure that I have some attention deficit disorder. I shouldn't say that I really read the book...I read parts of the book because I couldn't sit and concentrate long enough to finish it. But, in the parts that I read I was able to diagnose myself with ADD. I do all of the same things that the patients in the first and second chapters did. Oh, and I have been noticing recently (since my diagnosis) that when I fill out addresses in our UPS book at work I will fill in the name, then I will jump over and fill in the weight of the package, then the town, then the product description, and then the street address. My mind just jumps all over the place. And no, this is not a mommy thing. It has been going on for a long time. Anyway, getting back to my healthy lifestyle...Lily Bee, Payson, and I have been taking some nice walks lately. Now that the weather is better I am more motivated to get us all out in the fresh air. Here is the amazing part, yesterday I ran 2.6 miles. I am NOT a runner but for some reason yesterday I decided to pick up the pace and surprised myself by running the whole rest of our route. I really shouldn't say run as it was more of a really peppy walk. Calling it running makes me feel better. So, maybe we can continue our healthy lifestyle for more than just this week...We'll see! My walking/running route goes right by The Staff's house so I was able to stop by and see Sabrina and her gorgeous children. They are on Spring Break right now and visiting with the grandparents so hopefully we will be able to meet up again before they head home.

Have I rambled enough today? Well, if you have made it this far, I will leave you with a confession. When Lily Bee needs a bath she gets in the shower with me ?!?! Happy Thursday!
