Our week in a nutshell!

I can't believe I haven't posted that much this week. This past week has been quite crazy... here's what the Schiff family has been up to! 

• Sunday, the 22nd, was our 1 year anniversary!! 
• My in-laws (Jesse's dad and step-mom) gave us a car to use! :) 
• We had a delicious steak dinner for our anniversary! 
• Gabe started sitting up a lot more on his own... 
• He also has been going to sleep in his crib on his own and not crying...what a big boy! :)
• Jesse had mine classes this past week... 
• He FINALLY started full time... 
• Which means a $10.00 raise...HECK YES!
• We finally heard back from our insurance company about our Jeep...on Thursday!
• Only after I made several phone calls and spoke to several supervisors did this happen... 
• I guess they were tired of hearing me complain...hah! 
• Gabe had a Doctor's appointment... 
• He is a whole 13 pounds! 
• And healthy... 
• And more advanced than most preemies his age! 
• Oh & just in case anyone had any doubts... his doctor told me that I am a GREAT Mom... 
• Not that I ever doubted it... 
• Just nice of him to compliment me... seeing that Gabe is way ahead of where he should be... 
• So, yes, I AM a Fabulous, Great Mother! 
• I got to spend time with my mom and niece, Emeri! 
• She always makes me smile...:) 
• Jesse and I watched the movie "Real Steel"
• It was a lot better than I anticipated.. 
• I highly recommend it! 
• We also watched the movie "50/50" 
• Wow!! It was awesome!! 
• I definitely recommend that one! 
• Our laundry room shelf decided to collapse this week! 
• That was GREAT! 
• It's finally almost back to normal! 
• Gabe loves his doorway jumper thing... (not sure on the correct term) 
• He literally jumped for about 45 minutes today! 
• SO, SO cute! 
• Gabe is also talking up a storm... 
• He laughs a lot too... 
• Actually, it's more like a scream/laugh... 
• It's hilarious! 
• Rylee really needs a bath... 
• Mommy is just really tired! haha. 
• However, Gabe still LOVES bath time.. 
• He sat up the whole time in his bath tonight... 
• And then preceded to splash himself and Mommy in the face.. 
• I also swear he said "Mommy" the other night... 
• But then, it could have been my imagination! haha. 
• He's also finally getting over his little cold... 
• I'm so happy... 
• Thank God for humidifiers! 
• It helped... A LOT! 
• However, Mommy and Daddy are now sick.. 
• Gotta love that cute, little boy coughing in your face! 
• Oh well, we're finally starting to feel better.
• We watched "Erin Brockovich" tonight... 
• Man, What a great movie...it never gets old! 
• Did I mention that I love Julia Roberts... 
• Oh & George Clooney and Will Smith, too!
• Looking forward to next weekend... 
• Hopefully catching up on some much needed time spent with our good friends! 
• And possible a date night...courtesy of our movie gift certificates... 
• We both really want to see "Into the Grey" 
• Because Liam Neeson is pretty much amazing.. 
• Ok, maybe I do like him a bit more than George Clooney... 
• I started a new diet plan today... 
• I made Jesse help me come up with a plan last night... 
• I WILL lose 30 pounds by April 
• And another 10-20 by my best friend's wedding in June... 
• Today was day one of no sweet tea, soda, or just sugar in general.. 
• I've had a headache all day... 
• I know it's bound to get better... 
• And that's pretty much our week in a nutshell.. 

Night ALL! :) 

Mommy's sleeping boy!

All Smiles! :)
