It’s a hard time of year to lose weight. I had been doing quite well actually. I lost about 30 pounds in 4 weeks after Myles was born, but then it just stopped coming off. Argh! Course I hadn’t been doing much to help it out, it was just the natural postpardom loss, so I …

Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope you all have enjoyed your today! I have! The one thing that I really miss on Thanksgiving is not getting to watch the Macy’s Day parade. For some reason that was always my ‘thing’ growing up, well my thing besides the black olives and pickle snitching before the meal. 😉 We don’t have …
Becoming a “Yes” mommy in a “No-no” world
Recently I have felt like I chase my little 19 month old monkey around the house saying things like, “no-no”, “put that back”, “don’t touch!” to mention a few. I realize that at his stage he wants to explore AND push his boundaries. However, I don’t want to be a negative nag all the day …

Brothers
Our little dudes are getting so cute in how they interact with each other. Of course most of the interaction is on Qade’s part, but Myles is starting to respond. He is becoming more and more smiley and he just has the CUTEST grin!! I love toothless baby grins, they melt your heart! Anyway the …

Yesterday was a fun day with the family and Stuart got to visit a church that had sent some kids to camp last summer. He went to their evening service and even got to give a short “blurb” about camp and such. The pastor is interested in supporting us, which was a totally unlooked for …

So the last 2 days I braved the unknown and took both my boys for a walk. I decided that this was something in my day that I needed to do for me. 🙂 We get to get outside, which is good for all of us, but I get exercise which I really need, and …
I can be so braindead sometimes
Indeed, I know it’s hard for you to believe, but it’s true. 🙂 Today for instance, in fact I just realized less than 5 minutes ago when I was looking at the timer to see if the bread would be done soon, that I forgot to put the kneeding paddle back in the bread machine, …
Baking and more baking
Okay, so today I had quite the list of things that I wanted to get done. I wasn’t sure it was going to happen at first, but things worked out pretty well. I got up around 7ish this morning, and actually had a morning shower! Then I looked out the window and, low and behold, …
I should have believed!
It snowed last night!!! Woo-hooooooo!!!! It’s not much, but it’s white. Everyone sing with me now, “IT’S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS…” 🙂
Yogurt and Apples
Today has been a great Sunday! My amazing hubby handled the service at church as a one man show so amazingly well!! Makes me wish I could preach too. 😉 He lead singing, preached, did announcements and then when we were all done we had fellowship over the muffins and bread that I had baked. …
