The Various Doctors
So the last three days I have spent part of my day in the doctors office. So much for a nice relaxing spring break! First C had her 15 month checkup, then I got a sinus infection, and now C has pink eye!! It never ends. Besides running back and forth to the doctor, I have been laying around because the sinus infection I have is very bad! The whole left side of my face hurts including my teeth. So I can barely eat. I was supposed to be working on lesson plans and so forth this week but I guess that did not happen! oh well that is what a spring break is for, to take a break! Thankfully my child and myself choose to get sick during this time when I am home. Well hopefully next week will be better.

Hello
Hello,
I have started this blog because I read a friends and was inspired. I thought I can do this too! I entitled my blog the big picture for several reasons. One of them being my beautiful 15 month old daughter. She is the big picture. She is pure happiness wrapped up in pretty pink dresses and handing out baby kisses. No matter what happens in my day, C ( my daughter), is one of the only things that matters in the end. Another part of my big picture is my husband. M (my husband) is my support system, my cheerleader, and my best friend. Our big picture is our family with years to come with happy memories, eventually more children, friends, and family. The big picture is not what happens that makes life difficult today but what could happen tomorrow and knowing that my family is happy, healthy, and safe.
A little about me. I am graduate student getting my masters in Education. I live in Northern Louisiana. I am currently spending my days student teaching so that I can graduate in May!! I am a stay at home mom at heart, but with ambition to have a career. In other words, I am always between a rock and a hard spot! I have stressful days that require me to see the big picture, which is usually my toddler doing something funny to make me laugh!
Enough about me! Lets get into the interesting part of my life- my child! Who knew right? Today C had her 15 month check up and is right on cue besides the fact that is she very tall! I have no idea where she got that from but you know genes are crazy sometimes. Anyway she is perfect the doctor said and I am doing everything right. As a mother that is amazing to hear! However she did give me a surprising twist to today. She said my 15 month old is showing signs of being ready to potty train!! The only thing is I am not ready to potty train. I know, I know you are thinking " how can you want to keep changing diapers?" and it is not that I want to change diapers, but I feel like I would loose my baby. We have already given up bottles, baby food, the swing, the bouncer, the baby stuff! The only thing left besides the crib is diapers, and while this may sound crazy I am not ready to give that up yet. The bright side is the pediatrician said even babies who are ready at this age still usually don't get it for a while longer. Maybe in a few months I will feel completely different. Either way they always grow up, and to me it all seems to fast!
