oh, how time flies.

first, my little muffin's first shopping trip. she was such a little angel. everyone was so amazed, as i was i, at how chill she was, not even 2 months old yet, all swaddled up while i did some serious shopping. i had Jay on standby just in case something was to go awry. but my littleface was perfect. there were so many people who wanted to pinch her cheeks, but i'm not ready for that yet. i bought a LOT of stuff. fall and winter are my favorite seasons, so i bought tons of new clothes for myself and littleface. i bought Jay a new winter coat and some other things. i got most of my christmas shopping done for my niece and nephew. i'm kinda stuck on what to get Ava. clothes are a given, but when it comes to toys, i have no clue since she's still so little. she already has lots of musical toys and i have some baby einstein stuff, but that's where it ends. any suggestions?

while we were in the mall, i thought about getting Ava's ears pierced, but i decided not to. for one, her daddy would kill me. and two, i could not handle seeing her cry. but she would be even cuter with little diamond studs in her ears.

and then there were the interviews. not really as interesting as i'd anticipated. pretty boring, in fact.
-the first person was like half an hour late, but she called so she had a +1 in my book, but then she showed up looking like a $2 whore.

no bueno.
NEXT!

-really nice, older lady but she was fidgety. that shit is suspect.

-super sweet, middle-aged mexican-american, with great references, makes homemade empanadas, and she smelled like lavender.

girl, you trying to make me adopt you.

-then we had 2 days worth of no shows. boo, whore.

-lastly, middle-aged black lady with really pretty hair and fell madly in love with my husband and my baby.

hmmm, references are decent. daughter goes to Jay's and my alma mater. offered to start the same day. but i'm really not a fan of bitches flirting with my husband. did you say 'homemade mac n cheese'? sheeeeiiiitttt.

damn, i thought the mexican lady had it fa sho!

so, we went with Josie, the mexican lady because i have a sweet tooth. no, seriously, we picked her because she worked her families for a really long time [5 years minimum] and they all had great things to say about her. the older black lady would've gotten it, but she wasn't sure about her days of availability because her dad is sick and has been in and out the hospital for the past few months.

Josie started today and let me tell you, this bitch can clean like it's nobody's business! when she first got here, she was stuck at the end of our driveway for like 10 minutes because there was a deer that just wouldn't move [that happens almost every morning around here]. she came in with a smile on her face, ready to work. she seemed so surprised that i had breakfast ready and offered her some and that i wanted to help her clean. she was like "no, you sit with your little one. i'll do the cleaning!" i was very apprehensive about letting someone else clean for me, for many reasons, but after only a few hours, i know this one's a keeper. or at least i hope.

my hubby begrudgingly went back to work today. i'm guessing he's extremely busy since he hasn't called or texted me a single time since leaving this morning. i miss his stinkin ass. i love all the extra alone time i'm getting with littleface but fuck! he's my go-to guy. i've had moments with Ava where nothing i do seems right for her and he's there to tell me i'm a great mom and keep me from losing my shit. i need that in my life. and i just love to watch him hold her and play with her and get all those little smiles and big grins. it makes my heart melt and i don't really like all their time together getting cut. i think she's starting to notice he's gone too.

*sad face*
