Jill over at Scary Mommy is having this FABULOUS little contest…she wants to know what it is that makes us [well, me in this case] “Scary Mommy’s.” Say what you want, but mom’s of any age can be scary. There is no denying it. And since the prizes are so unbelievably awesome and I like […]

I dreamed my entire life of having a family. Getting married to a “handsome prince” and having the most beautiful family in the world. It was April 19, 2008 that my “prince” and I said the I-Do’s. And it was a mere three weeks later, on May 9, 2008 that I found out that my […]

Noah had his very FIRST 1st birthday party today. We went to the local park and had cake and chips and dip with my parents and sister, and some friends from church and Josh’s work. The rain came in last night and cooled everything off, so it was in the low to mid-60’s today. It […]

The President’s Nobel Peace Prize came as no surprise to me….found then video when I googled it to read about it. Thought it was interesting. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. If you can’t get it to play here, then you can go here to view it on YouTube. Just something to think […]

I’ve heard this question asked alot. Especially to moms. “If you could go back and do things differently [whether in reference to children or to life in general], would you?” For starters, I think that’s an unfair question. 99.9% of the people that you asked that to would either say a flat out “No” they […]

So. I was in Walmart this afternoon, already kind of frustrated and not in the best of moods. It was just one of those mornings…you know the kind, where you are ill and not really in a good mood and don’t know why. Yea. It was that kind of morning. I was by myself. I […]

It’s been a long week. Busy, but long. Here’s what all went on around my house: +Monday: Noah slept till 9:00 [huge relief as he’s usually up at the crack of dawn]. The refrigerator starts making an even louder noise that it had been for the past 2 weeks. It’s no longer cooling as well […]

I didn’t used to be like this. Really. I promise I wasn’t. Sure things got to me on occasion, but nothing that I couldn’t handle. Most things rolled off of my back. Not anymore. I don’t know if it’s being married that did it. Or having a baby. Or maybe just facing up to the […]

How ironic is it that after my last post, I would run across this online? Haha. God certainly has a sense of humor and a knack for getting my butt into gear. The goal here is to provide Mom’s with a sort of accountability group to encourage us to get ourselves back into shape and […]

My friend Amie has ignited this little “mommy spark” inside of me the past couple of weeks that is causing my brain to float around a very strange idea. She has this beauitful little girl, Avery, who is always dressed in her adorable little outfits and dresses with the cute bows and ribbons in her […]
