Hanging in there

Tweet I would love to be able to tell you that the last several days have been full of busyness, and that I have tons of pictures to show and stories to tell, but really? I’m just not myself these days. This pregnancy has been hard, and days with my kiddos long. There are lessons [...]

Is It All In My Head?

Tweet Let’s talk about food for a minute. Really I could talk about it all day, because… well, I pretty much think about food all day. I’d like to blame my recent food obsession on this baby I’m growing. You see, I can’t wait until I’m hungry to eat. In fact, I haven’t experienced hunger [...]

A Sleep-Deprived Rant

Tweet I’d like to apologize, in advance, for the tone of this post. I usually am good about keeping this a no whining zone and I promise not to make this a regular occurrence, but I need to vent while my kids are eating lunch. I’m exhausted. We discovered yesterday that Noah’s cold has produced [...]

Sick and Tired

Tweet First it was a stomach bug that knocked me out for three days. The three days after Thanksgiving. I slept so much during those three days, thanks to the fact that Ray was home and is more-than-usually-amazing when I don’t feel good. Come Monday, I felt okay. Just okay. If you want to call [...]

“Where’d my baby go?”

Tweet Last night I tried to cuddle with my baby. Okay, it’s hard for me to admit, but Noah’s not really a baby any more. Sure, he’ll always be my baby, but you know… As I was saying, I tried to cuddle with him, as he squirmed and tried to escape my cuddles and kisses. [...]

Shoes

Tweet I must find and secure 6 pairs of shoes any time we leave the house, not to mention a pair for my feet… But, why is it that we can never find the right shoes, especially when we’re in a hurry? We can find one shoe, but not the other. The shoes that don’t [...]

Robbed

Tweet Last night I slept like a baby. It had to be that I was dead tired by the time I climbed into bed (more on why later), but I seriously got one of the best nights of sleep in months. So, I was incredibly surprised this morning, when I woke up with a pain [...]

I am weak, but He is strong

Tweet Do you ever get that feeling like you just need a break? Well, by Thursday night I was there. I had had a long few days, with very little time to breath. The week went by so fast and I didn’t seem to accomplish as much as I would have liked. By Thursday night [...]

Babysitters

Tweet They just don’t make ‘em like they used to. I remember as a young girl being so excited for the day that I could babysit children besides my siblings! I remember taking a CPR and first aid class to become Red Cross certified. I remember counting down the days ’til I turned 12 and [...]
