Tiddly Bits!

Hey you guys! I have a lot of little things to write about, so I thought I would throw them all together into one big post! I love reading other people's little tiddly bits, so for those of you who feel the same - this is for you! (And for my future memory!) Let's start with a li…

Ahead of the Game.

I have found myself super prepared for the arrival of this new little guy and the busyness of life that promises to hit afterward. He is coming at a time when things get very busy, so instead of floundering and panicking then with a precious newborn in my arms, I have started preparing t…

Crime Fighting.

Bless my Husby's heart. He's tired. Make that ... exhausted. When he gets home from work in the late evenings, he plays with Levi, eats supper and then usually falls asleep on the couch until I wake him up and make him go to bed. Five in the morning comes entirely too early fo…

Redheads Unite.

The intro paragraph has nothing to do with the point of the post ... but it was cute and it happened that day, so I had to share. One day a couple of weeks ago, Levi and I had a day out with my Mom. On our way to meet her, we got pulled over by a policeman. I was going 73 in a 65, and h…

To Splurge or Save.

Gift cards are such a great thing to receive. The possibilities of what to do with them are endless and shopping with "free money" is one of the most fun things in the world! Some think that they are an impersonal gift, but I sure don't. I love them. What better thing to…

On a Tuesday Night.

Phew! The holidays are over and life is slowly regaining some sense of normalcy again. I was so ready to tear down the decorations this year and get the place back to it's regular state that we got them down and up in the attic the day after we got home. I can never truly enjoy the …

How Much Fonder Can My Heart Grow?

Every marriage and family has their share of sacrifices, and each of those sacrifices looks different for each relationship. For some it may be financial, putting careers on hold, time constraints, giving up self wants, and the list goes on and on. For each season of life, new sacrifice…

I Feel The Earth Move

Friday night at about 2am, I was fast asleep in bed when Husby started yelling, "WHAT IS THAT? WHY IS THE BED SHAKING?" I jumped up and screamed, "Is Levi in here?!" .... as if he could shake our bed at the magnitude it was wobbling at. I woke up at the very end of th…

Two Things.

Well, folks, this weekend changed my life in two ways. HeyTell & Coupons First of all, a friend introduced me to HeyTell and I spent the entire weekend walkie-talkying my friends and family. It was hilarious. And so much fun! Do y'all use it? It's an iPhone app where you ca…

Catching Up!

Oh guys, sorry I have been MIA! I have been N to the A to the USEAS! Oh my lanta, it has been brutal. I haven't been blogging because when you feel like cruddies, everything sounds like cruddies. Even blogging. My Dad hooked me up with some great vitamins that have helped with the si…

Potty Time.

Well, folks. We have embarked on the overwhelming journey of Potty Training. Levi has shown signs for a while that he is ready to go in the potty, but I have been waiting on a few things before we jumped in full-force. It's funny that it doesn't matter how ready for something a…

A Mother's Sick Day.

I woke up last week with one nasty stomach bug. When I laid down I was super nauseous, and when I stood up it triggered ... le vomiting. (Putting "le" in front of anything makes it a little more classy, right?) When you have a two year old (very active) little boy, laying down…

Small Town Superstars.

There's a little diner down the road from our neighborhood that prides itself in their open face roast and gravy sandwiches, black bottom pie and ... karaoke. The place is hoppin' most every night and though the food is pretty darn tasty, I think it's the open stage and free …

The American Idol.

I've felt convicted lately about my time management. Specifically, time spent on my phone. More specifically, time spent on Facebook and Twitter. A couple of weeks ago, as I was going about my daily routine and something happened, I immediately thought, "Oh! I should share tha…

I Tried To Help.

A few weeks ago, Husby was outside mowing the lawn and remembered that we needed to get the oil changed before the place closed at 5. He looked at his watch and wouldn't you know, it was 4:30. He ran inside and asked if I would go get the oil changed while he finished up outside and…

What'cha Been Doing?

We've been ... Kickin' our feet up ... Cooking out with the Grill Master ... Playing in the creek ... Testing out lawn furniture ... Getting the bad guys ... Hanging out with Glam*Ma & Papapa ... Spending the night in hotels ... Playing at the splash pad ... Helping Grammy coo…

Bitty Bits.

Confessional! I have been away from my computer/blogging all of last week and (besides posting the vacay pictures) the majority of this week, too. Whew, that's like a record for me! Truth is, the longer I'm away from it, the more I don't even think about it. It's not that …

More Answers!

i would love to know what a typical day in your life is like, as in your routine with levi... also, i would love to know how he is doing developmentally at his age. it seems like levi is advanced for his age in some areas like language development, so i was curious to see what all you do …

ANSWERS! (Part One)

Several of you asked the same questions, so instead of copy/pasting each individual question related to that topic, I am going to answer in categories. HOME PICTURES Alrighty, so many of you want me to do a home tour of my home and my mom's. There are several pictures of my house (an…

Thoughts for Tuesday.

Okay, my brain is too jumbled and overcrowded to come up with a sensible blog post today, so I thought I would spew out some of what is swirling around in there to make some room! * We got home late Sunday night from a long weekend in Nashville, TN to visit family. We drove through tumul…
