The pathetic looking picture is from a few nights ago when Ella cried for a
good hour and a half because of a tooth coming in. But it very nicely sums up how I feel now.

Two More Days
I am so ready for my husband to be home. These 14 and 7 shifts (14 days gone, 7 days home) are probably my least favourite things in the world. Or at least tied with going to the dentist and shopping for pants.

How I View Sweetness and Love
I'm not quite sure how another month has passed already but its time for the second post of the "How I View" series.
I'm linking up with 11 other wonderful ladies for this bloggy circle. Be sure to visit them all starting with Kelly!
February's theme was "How I View Sweetness and Love".
I was in no way feeling the "love and sweetness" of February. It was a tough month. It was Roy's second month without a job which meant a lot of stress.
However, I was extremely fortunate to watch the love and sweetness between my husband and daughter grow as he got to spend every day with her for almost two months. I know that I am extremely lucky woman to have a husband who is so involved with his daughter and is so helpful. He has such an amazing love for Ella, it makes me love him even more.
We ended the month of February with Roy getting a job but unfortunately it's one that takes him out of town for two weeks at a time. It just makes the photos like these all the more sweet.
DDon't forget to head on over to Kelly's blog to see how she viewed sweetness and love this month!

365 Thursday
Over the last few weeks I've been searching out other blogs that are featuring a Project 365. It's great to see others that have taken on the challenge and to browse through all their fantastic pictures as well. Although I sure love looking at my little pumpkin day after day I thought it might be nice to send you on your way to some other 365ers.
One Beautiful Year features the cute little guy in the picture above who just had his first birthday. Go ahead and check out their picture a day adventure!

101 in 1001
I've been working on a "Project Zero" or a "101 in 1001" for a while now.
In the last couple months I've been able to cross of a few more things!
64. Have a real fondue dinner. This is just the dessert but we had chicken, beef, mushrooms and a ton of veggies before this. So delicious! My mouth is watering just thinking about it right now.
57. Make as many homemade versions of food as possible. I can add butter, pasta, alfredo sauce and tomato soup to this list!
97. Learn to make pasta. Super easy and EXTREMELY tasty.
101. I made cookies and cream ice cream (no pictures because we were too busy eating it...)
My list is now 30.7% done!

Tuesday
The house is slowly getting better. More boxes packed. More walls painted. More baseboards cut.
I started putting photos from my Project 365 into an album. I want to print them all out and have a complete album. No scrapbooking or photobook. Just a plain old album to flip through. I'm loving it so far.
Hubs and I had a little date night to see "Sitter" at the cheap theatre for $4. The movie was RIDICULOUSLY loud until Roy went and asked them to turn it down. Also the 4 people sitting beside us reeked of weed to the point that 4 people went and complained and we had an employee standing in the theatre the whole time watching them. Good times. And the movie was pretty hilarious.
Speaking of hilarity I'm reading "Assholes Finish First" by Tucker Max. Its a "one more page, just one more page" kind of book. If you have a sense of humour and aren't easily offended (aka don't have objections to swearing, drunkenness and meaningless sex) you need to read it. That's what I'm going to go do now.
All Caught Up
I've caught up on my editing of my Project 365. I'm sure I'll get behind again but for now it feels great!
We spent more time at our house today making it "sellable". One room fixed which means only three more to go. Yes there are only four rooms in our house!
Every day Ella is getting better and better at sitting on her own. The smarty pants figured out how to drink with a straw tonight. She's just too tiny to lift a sippy cup but we're ready to start transitioning off the bottle.
At her six month appointment last week my little monkey was a whole 13 lbs 7 ounces and 25 inches long. 9th percentile for weight and 25th for height. But my doctor said as long as there is chub to grab she's fine. She's just petite.
It has saved me tremendously on clothing. She's still in 0-3m sizes. But socks still don't stay on her feet because of her little bird ankles. So she lives in tights and onsies. Looks pretty darn comfortable to me!
