Are You Laughing At The Point I’m Trying To Make?

Scott headed out for Arkansas earlier this week, and one thing I’m sure of, I am SO thankful for that man.  I honestly do not know how single moms do it! 
Tuesday night I was dealing with Dwight and boy, does he know how to push my buttons sometimes!  We’ve had to keep the house [...]

Hilariosity

I got a few good laughs yesterday and just had to share. 
1.  I saw hubby whack his face into his car door.  It knocked his hat sideways and everything.  You know I had to open the door and yell, “I saw that!”  It was so cute.  Kind of reminded me of our so-called “first date” [...]

Thanks and Giving

Life has been rough the last year.  Real rough.  I’m not even going to pretend it has been easy!  Life with Dwight has been SO HARD.   He has really been struggling and there are days I think that he’s pushed me past my limits.  Maybe that’s why I finally got him enrolled in some counseling!
I’ve [...]

If you have boys…

get ready.  This is the kind of stuff they’ll do!
See how the door is sticking out more on top than on bottom?  That’s because Dwight and Patrick pulled the door off its hinges.  Yup.  Dwight thought it would be funny to shut the laundry room door on Patrick while he was in there, so Patrick [...]

Monday, Monday

Ahhh, it’s taking some time, but maybe today I’ll get this birth story posted.  I don’t know what it is about Mondays since the baby has been born, but this Monday was just as hectic as last Monday!  Scott called me at 8 a.m. to tell me that he was rear-ended (but was okay).  Good news [...]

The Church Mafia

First, an update:
My mom made it here and Madison was pretty much all over her.  Yes!  So were the other kids, and I wanted MY turn!  So I talked her ears off for a while…telling her about the last week.  I probably should have let her talk more…  Good thing she’s here for over a month!
Scott is [...]

24 Cans of Redbull + Hormones = ???

I had quite the shopping experience at Costco today.  I’ll try to blog about that tomorrow. 
But today, I am proud to say that I was able to purchase 2 24-packs of redbull for only $23 per pack thanks to the 2 $8 off coupons I got in the mail!  Woo hoo! 
Even the baby was jumping [...]

38 Weeks and 3 Days – And I’m Not Ready Yet!

I had another OB appointment today.  I LOVE my doctor.  He has been so supportive of this VBAC birth and even pursuing a natural childbirth.  If only more doctors were like him!  He truly is a blessing!  I haven’t had him check me, just because (and we both agree), the benefits to checking me don’t [...]
