Day 3: 30 Days of Thankfulness

Day 3 - I am thankful for this sassy bundle...


Oh how boring life would be without our Sam!  She has been the most expressive and vocal since day one.  Honestly if she is not talking I wonder what is wrong.  She randomly breaks out in song; usually something she is learning at church or her favorite (right now).  Daddy says she gets it from me, but I have no clue what he is talking about (lol).  From what I have been told it is not just something around the house, she is known for it in Sunday School as well.  It is hard to discipline her at times because she flashes her smile and bright blues and all you want to do is smile.  My Sam is a ball of fire.  Very tenderhearted.  Compassionate.  Loves to be outdoors.  Is the girl who names frogs and keeps them in buckets when we are not home so they won't get lost.  The one who tries to hide a lizard in her pocket so that it can go with us to the store.  My girl whose heart is broken when said animals find new homes.  She loves her siblings, especially our sweet P.  Almost every morning she gets him out of bed.  She changes his diapers, even smelly ones.  She doesn't get all grossed out when Mr. P spews on her.  My Sam will make you smile when you least expect it, or when you need it most of all.  I am truly blessed with this special girl.  I am thankful for this little ray of sunshine in our home.

The Countdown Begins...

It has been a very hectic past few months. My oldest is now 6 and my middle child is 3, oh me, time is going by way too quickly! All followed up by my youngest turning 1 in October. eek! So the countdown started yesterday. I gave notice and my last day working outside of my home will be June 30th. Yes a long notice...but I felt like it was necessary. Even more necessary is for me to take on my God given role to raise up my children in the way they should go. I am excited and yet nervous. I am coming home to be a worker in my home - to the most important job that I could ever do! I definitely don't want to mess it up. So not only is the long notice for my current boss, but also so that I can prepare myself for all that awaits me. Things will definitely be changing in our household, but I am sure that they will all be for the better so long as we keep our gaze on Him.

Tuckered Toddler

Webb and I got home one night from a night out alone (few and far between these days) and little Sam had fallen asleep on Cat's bed. Just too cute not to snap a photo.

I want to be a loser

I hate to admit how complacent I have gotten with being healthy.  I know what I need to do which makes it much worse than just being ignorant.  I know how to count calories (or points).  It's a simple equation more output than input.  Add in chaos and the need of convenience and it no longer seems quite as simple.  In addition to the chaos I have a huge weakness for sugar!  Preferably the chocolate variety.  But really any sort of 'sweet' will do.   My hubby and I came to a so called agreement right after Christmas.  I will give up sweets and he will give up soda (his weakness).  "Give up" is so very harsh.  Neither of us has been perfect with it.  He of course has done much better than I.  Unfortunately for him I am weak and when I have given into my sweet tooth I have tended to bring him a Coke.  Oh only upon typing that out did I realize how horrible I have been.  Did it take anyone else back to Genesis?...
