New Phone

Hi everyone.


I have a new phone and therefore a new number. Please email me for it or call the old number and I left the voicemail to hear my new number. I will try to text everyone my new number.


My phone looks like this.

It is pretty cool for a "free" phone. You can listen to fm radio and the song shows up on the screen. Oh the technology these days.

Blogiversary

So today is my 1 year blogiversary.

I can't beleive that 1 year ago Dave and I decided to make one of the best decisions...
To have a child.
This year has been amazing.
I have been blessed.
God has shown me...
that I can be completely satisfied.
That material goods don't mean as much as spending time with your family.
To say no.
Staying home is fun.
Money can be soooo stressful.
I can live off of 2 hours of sleep. (not well, but it is possible)
I love my husband more and more every day.
I could care less about a business career, and being a good wife and mother means everything.

Noah hearts Idaho

Noah and I went to Idaho this last weekend.

We stayed with Maya.

We walked to the park with Vera

We hung out.

We rode in Auntie Aprils comfortable car.

We went swimming.

Vera and Noah a match in hats.

We visited Titus, Noah's newest cousin.

They got a new tent.... so much fun!

We wore Noah out and he is still recovering, but we had a great time and thank you to all our family for being so great and hospitable.

My brothers could have made a fortune

Being the youngest and the only girl has some disadvantages. One of them being pretty gullable and wanting to impress my older brothers. Oh how they loved me dearly.

We would play outside... I would get to eat things unimaginable.

We would play inside... I would get to eat things unimaginable.

So no surprise when my mom and dad would leave them to "babysit" me, things would happen. Ben would brake an arm.

I would have uncontrollable nosebleeds... you know the usual.

But There were many times that I would spend quality time with them hanging on the doorknob until my parents came home.

Today I saw this on the internet.

The BabyKeeper.

Boys, you were ahead of your time.

Mom Poem

Before I was a Mom…
I made and ate hot meals.
I had unstained clothing.
I had quiet conversations on the phone.

Before I was a Mom…
I slept as late as I wanted.
I brushed my hair and my teeth every day.

Before I was a Mom…
I didn’t worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was Mom…
I had never been puked on, pooped on, spat on, chewed on, peed on,
or pinched by tiny fingers.

Before I was a Mom…
I had complete control of my mind, thoughts, my body,and my time.

Before I was a Mom…
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom…
I didn’t know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn’t know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn’t know that bond between a mother and her child.

Before I was a Mom…
I didn’t know that something so small could make me feel so important.

Before I was a Mom…
I had never risen in the middle of the night,every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.

Before I was a Mom…
I had never known the warmth,the joy, the love,the heartache,the wonderment,or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn’t know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mom!

Work Shmurk

After a lovely holiday weekend I am here at work at the butt crack of dawn.

I miss my baby.

It is lame that we need money to have food and shelter.

Why can't we live off of grass clippings?

I have tons of those.
