Love and Hate

pacifiers.  When Addilyn is crying in the car seat or when she is tired and I give it to her and she falls asleep immediately I love it.  When she wakes up at night and can't fall back to sleep I hate it.  If only it was safe to  have it strapped to her face all night.  
my new donut pan.  I have wanted one for a long time and finally got it for Christmas.  I love it, but I don't need another thing tempting me to eat unhealthy.  I've made two different recipes and will have to share the best one. Which of course will take trying out just a few others first.  
childbirth.  Such an amazing thing.  It still blows my mind that Addilyn came from inside me.  But I am still not psychically healed from my labor.  Not to go into oversharing on this blog, but I am having to go to handfuls of uncomfortable doctor appointments, as at six months out, things still aren't healed.  
snow. It was beautiful at Christmas time and I even loved it for a week after.  But combined with the cold weather we are sick of being stuck inside.  Too bad we have about four more months of winter left.  Plus my driveway currently resembles a dirty ice skating rink, which I barely managed to escape without falling while taking these pictures.  

reality tv.  I love reality tv.  It tops my list as my favorite kind of tv.  But just every so once in awhile I really think about how dumb it is.  
video monitors. I'm so happy for our video monitor so we can see Addilyn when she's sleeping and I can't imagine not having it.  But sometimes it makes me crazy because I watch it all the time and when she starts moving a little I'm convinced she's going to wake up and I often look at it like it's a ticking time bomb. 

Jeans with zippers. Nope. I actually still just hate these.  Jeggings continue to win. Everyday.
