Basically, our personal blog here has been and continues to be neglected. The only reason, no time. Any online time I have had has been going to de-cluttering my email inboxes and posting over on the SIMPLE moms. My goal was to get all my required, pending posts done on SIMPLE this week. I can’t […]
4 weeks flew. lots of tears too.
It was 4 weeks ago today that we said good-bye to our boxer, Abbie. I sit and remember all the wonderful times we had with our dear Abbie (see my post HERE for the full story). After all, she was with us for 12 years. Although 12 years seems like such a long time, it […]
saying goodbye…
I know she is just a dog, but it’s crazy how quickly they grow in to your life and put a stronghold on your feelings. Today, our sweet Abbie girl is going away. It pains me to write this, but it’s even more painful to know she is in pain. Being an adult sucks. LOL! […]
3-day potty training {day #2 update}
I went in to day number two with VERY low expectations. Given Preslee’s older sisters and how they did, it’s was never good. I cried. They cried. We all cried. Not good. LOL!! However, Preslee is the bomb diggity and rocked the second day! ZERO accidents. That is not normal by the way. Day two […]
3-day potty training, at it again. {day number one}
Preslee is my third child to go through the regimen of 3-Day Potty Training. I was talking to my dad this weekend, telling him about the plans we had for this week. When I told him we were doing the same schedule that we did for her sisters, he assumed it was a couple week […]
glimpses {week 1}
I have been following Diana Stone on Twitter and Instagram since I went to Disney for #DisneySMMoms. She recently went through a massive loss of her son. I have shed many tears for her and her family, and continue to read along…because what a beautiful family they are. She recently started a *Glimpses* series and […]
wordless wednesday :: a little girl or a little boy, that is today’s question!
We have WORDS on Wordless Wednesday…GASP!! Totally necessary words of course. 🙂 We are having our ultrasound to see our perfect little munchin’ and “hopefully” find out if we will be having a little boy or little girl. If you didn’t see my other post with some Wive’s Tales I did, be sure to check […]
4 is 4 is 4…
I blogged over on the SIMPLE moms, on a topic I typically talk about here. I wanted to be sure to post this here as well for all the family and friends who check this out more than SIMPLE. {Side note, you shouldn’t by the way…SIMPLE rocks too LOL} Anyways, here are a few excerpts […]
6’6″, 7’4″, 8’5″ and… {plus other ramblings}
If you don’t know by now, I am pregnant. I am thrilled and so very excited. Praying for a healthy baby, whatever sex God blesses us with. But look at the title. Do you see a pattern? Those are the birth weights of #1, #2 and #3. Ummm…does this mean I’ll be having a 9 […]
she walks…I react. obviously.
Preslee is 16 months old and our latest walker. We weren’t concerned as she was getting around just fine with her little walker and crawling. When people asked if she was walking yet, we would smile and laugh with a simple no. Well, the day finally came the other night. And she has continued waking. […]
who has your vote? #election2012
In all honesty, I am not sure who ever is voted in will be able to make a ton of change on what has happened over the last 4 and even 8 years. However, my choice for voting this year rested on morals and values and what I BELIEVED was the right thing. I have […]
