2 years

My word I cant believe it has been 2 years! I am not a blogger but there are so many moments that I never want to forget. I've been meaning to write down all the silly things my children say or do. Marlee is going to be 4 soon. I can hardly believe it.

The other day she ran out of our bathroom furious. She found her new blueberry lip gloss in my makeup bag. "Mom, what's this?!" "Why is this in there?"

My son woke up crying before school and told me he had the worst dream ever. I grabbed him and held him close. It must have been a terrible dream! I asked him to tell me about it. With huge tears rolling down his cheek he stated, "Someone stole my ipad." I couldn't help but laugh.

Just a tease

Ummmm wow! I cannot believe that it has been this long since I have....well said anything. Life has been crazy! My Jack just graduated from VPK and Mar is 1.5 years old. Where the heck does time go. Let me fill you in on a little bit of what I have been doing. Yes Im talking to you my 3 followers heehee.

 

Thats right! Remember that obsession I have with my new snazzy camera? It turned into so much more!! I have so much to say and share but I am tired because....Marlee STILL doesnt sleep through the night. Yeah I know.

Tutu Cute

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas! I leave you with a little slice of heaven. See you after the holiday!

Broken

Broken

Ever since the 14th Ive been in a constant state of sorrow. I have a tingling in the pit of my stomach, my heart beats faster and it takes twice as much energy to smile. My heart is broken.

 

Broken for the mothers who are sitting in their children's empty room. Smelling their clothes, their pillows and wishing that tomorrow they will wake up to realize it was all a dream.

 

Broken for the fathers who are fighting back tears while picking up his tiny baseball mitt, grieving because he will never see that tiny face again.

 

Broken for the siblings. The little sister that doesn't understand where her brother went. The big sister who lost her closest companion.

 

But mostly broken for the children. Not because they are gone, they are with the lord now, but for how they left. How scared they must have been. How badly they must have wanted mommy and daddy.

 

Broken for my children because of the world they live in.

RIP

Wishing and Wanting

And my Christmas list goes as so

1. a lifetime supply of magic erasers

2. a life time supply of scented candles

3. Get out of free... sex coupon

4. Channing Tatum

5. The winning lottery numbers

6. My 18 year old butt

7. A maid

8. and Children/husband that cleans, feeds, and bathes themselves

 

I honestly feel like that isnt too much to ask for!

 

And lets get real...Am I the only one who thinks that little stalker elf is creepy? My only thought is what is that creeper doing while I sleep. I mean, what if he is a perv? Just saying, It is a possibility.

 

Target! I see you. I see you upping your prices on produce and whats up with stating "sale" and when I look under the "sale" price its the exact same as the usual price. Please tell me you have more faith in us than that.

 

There are many things that I love about the holidays such as: Hot chocolate, peppermint lattes, how much closer everyone is and how thankful we are for family. Its our first year of having our complete family of 4. We are so blessed and I cant wait to share our Christmas morning pictures.

just a thought...How fun would it be to do home birth photography!!!?

According to husband it is perfectly normal to look at another attractive person even though you are married. Phew!! Glad he agrees. Enjoy!



Photogpraphy Maybe?

I just got a snazzy camera and I have become obsessed with pictures, pictures and pictures! I might have to dabble a little in photography. I know, I know....everyone is a photographer but I just cant help it. Husband is 100% encouraging me to explore it as well. I say What the Heck! It cant hurt!

 

This picture was taken as she was trying to swat at the lens. People are always questioning me about her eye color. Truth is, I have no clue what color they are. She is full-blown walking and has 6 teeth. 4 coming in...well NOW.

this one is blurry BUT I love it. I will admit to making pretty eyed babies! I cant wait to capture life through MY photography!

Randoms

Random thought.

 Sometimes I think that I am failing as a mother, wife and just a human being in general. I mean I cant even comprehend how other mothers have a spotless house, well behaved children and perfect hair. What I want to know is, what are your children doing when you are making your house spotless and your hair perfect? And don't get me started on the homemade EVERYTHING!! It has to be a sick joke you are playing on me.

 

Cooking

I loath cooking. Nothing about cooking sound appealing to me. Especially the part where my 10 month old is dangling from the back of my pants all while screaming bloody murder.

 

Drinking

I need to do more of that! Rumor has it people who drink red wine are much healthier and possibly less moody.

 

smoking

Only if its the good stuff. Other than that please stop blowing that shit in the direction of my children. I will also give you the look of death as you are sucking in that cancer.

 

Family Pictures

We got them today! I am a little concerned with how my hair is going to look. I actually fixed it but the humidity may have destroyed my 20 minutes of agonizing labor that I put into it.

 

Blogs

After looking at a few blogs I have realized that I just don't get it. My blog will never be fancy and I will probably only have 3 followers forever....and I'm ok with that

 

Today

I get to go to Chuck E Cheese. Jealous??!

 

Soon

                             I'll be posting our family pictures as soon as I get them! I cant wait.

I was testing out my new camera, which I LOVE!
