A Lesson in Worldliness

The other day I was attempting to clean up Juniper’s room. Well, actually, I was attempting to do as little work in there as possible. Sometimes I can get her to clean it all up mostly by herself. This day though, she was just not cooperating. To make a long story short, I was sick…

One Year!

Today is my sweet little man’s first birthday! I can’t even begin to describe how much I love this guy. I’ve been trying to come up with something special to write for his birthday post, you know, because someday he might get to read this. But all I can think about is how much I…

Happy Spring

I had forgotten how much I absolutely love spring. In fact, I’m not sure I ever even realized how much I adore this season. Sure, as a kid I always got excited when it started getting warmer again, but only because that meant it was almost summer. And back then, summer was definitely my favorite…

Excitements

I am a slightly ridiculous amount of excited right now. See this cruddy webcam photo? Do you know what this means?? My hair is ALMOST long enough to stick it all up in a giant hair bow on top of my head! I finally feel like I’ve got some length and it makes me happy.…

Date Night ?

Thanks to my wonderful mother-in-law, Loverboy and I were able to enjoy a nice date tonight! Date nights are pretty rare because Shaun works nights and rarely gets one off. (Plus we always feel bad leaving the kids with anyone else, because they can be quite a handful.) But a random weeknight off + awesome…

Eleven Months

It seems like I was just writing a ten month old post, can my baby really already be eleven months old? He is growing up so fast, but I love that he still cuddles in my arms like a little baby. As much as I wish he would start sleeping through the night, I secretly…

Just a little update.

Things have been a little quiet around here. I can’t seem to put into words how I have been feeling lately. Well, without sounding like a crazy person anyway, so I won’t even try. So instead I’ve just been taking it easy and telling myself “tomorrow will be great”. (Not that every day isn’t great.…

Meh.

It’s been a little quiet around here lately. I haven’t been feeling well and every time I sit down to do pretty much anything, my brain just stops working. (It’s made work interesting, that’s for sure.) So here I am, curled up in bed with my favorite blanket, drinking ginger ale that my sweet hubby…

Ten Months

The difference between nine months and ten months is pretty incredible. This little mister has FOUR teeth now, can stand up on his own and loves chasing his sister around the house with his walker toy. It’s been a busy month! My favorite thing right now is how excited he is to see me when…

365 Days Outside

I’m pretty excited about this book I got for Christmas from my sister-in-law. I really don’t think I have to explain to you all how great it is for kids (and adults!) to get outside. Even when it’s cold outside, it just makes our day so much better to get out there. This book is…
