Three Months Today!

I guess baby will technically be three months in a few more days, but he is officially 12 weeks old today! It has been a tough three months, but I think I am more or less used to my life now. My attitude has improved tremendously and my crying bouts have stopped, thank goodness. I must admit though, it still is forking tough! Tough to be 'on' all the time, tough to take care of house and home...and baby. Tough to make a half-assed attempt at cooking a meal. I wish my mom was still here, or that we lived closer to family. Mine, preferably :P

This Thursday is Thanksgiving Day in the states, and I really wish I could be home celebrating this year. The holidays are always tough when you are abroad, but I am trying to make do and develop my own traditions. At least Mexico has some similar holiday traditions as we do, because let me tell you...it was a pain to find ways to celebrate in Japan or Cambodia! (Surprisingly though, easier in Cambo that Nippon!)

I bought a turkey breast for this weekend and will probably go side dish crazy if I can find the time to do so! Hubs wanted to invite his coworkers over to celebrate with us, and I had this glorious menu planned...but it ended up not working out and to be honest, it is probably for the best considering how long it took me to make a pie when I tried last weekend. Oh well...there is always next year! Baby will be bigger and hopefully I will be able to make all of the wonderful things I have planned out in my head. I really miss cooking...I love the challenge of a new recipe and then making it my own. I love how it perfumes the house and gives it a 'lived in' feel. I love watching the ones I love enjoy something I made. I love being able to travel through time and space with just one bite from a beloved dish. I love going to my mom for any little question. I love it! I miss it! I wrote about this already!

Anyway, to summarize, all is well. We are getting into our groove. Some days are harder than others, but for the most part, T is turning out to be a pretty fun little baby.

I'm still sleepy though. God am I sleepy.
