buzz...buzz...buzz


Today my little boy got stung 2x by a bee.


He was holding his little swollen chubby arm and crying. It broke my heart. Oliver is 18 months old... I am 25 and have never stung before.


I would rather be stung by 25 bees, than to have my little guy get stung once.


It is true, to be a mother is to have your heart walking around outside your body.


I am so grateful for bee stings...


They made me realize how blessed I am to have healthy children that can run around outside and get stung.

Did somebody day ROTTEN!

Nothing like getting off to a rotten start! Man! I can't or wait yes I can believe it. Let's see...Today Justin and I took a much needed trip to Lafayette without the kids. AAAHHHH...I love my boys, but man-o-mighty did I need a break. I have to get over the guilt that I feel whenever I leave them though. It stinks and tends to ruin the day. Carolyn, my sis-in-law, came home this weekend from ISU. So we have been hanging out with her a bit. She is great. Oliver has yet another ear infection and it is making life cranky for both of us. What else? Oh, I know I left a chicken breast in the microwave to thaw out. I forgot about it for 2 days... and my kitchen smelled like a dead animal this morning. GROSS! Other than that, I should be doing my dishes right now. But alas, I procrastinate yet again! Adios.

Away We Go!!!


Well, I checked out a friend of mine's blog and liked how often she posted. So, I am going to give it whirl. I am going to try to blog everyday for a month. We'll see. I will probably end up fizzling out. Typical...


Question, for anyone that reads this...all 3 of you. I am trying to find a better way to have my devotions. I tried just old school reading my Bible. But, I know that after a day or two, I am getting nothing and just doing it to say that I did it. Maybe this is a heart problem. I tried listening to Demoss... but there are only a few audio posts available. So, suggestions on an audio version of devotions?


I am addicted. To coupons. To CVS. It haunts my dreams. But I love it. I think I annoy the "non-pons" as I refer to them. (Those people that don't coupon...) (and my husband) Because I like to talk about the deals! It is like a game to me... How much stuff for how little money...challenging.


This is a very random post. That is how my mind functions I suppose. I want to put a picture up. So I am including the photo of a siberian baby weighing 17lbs and 1 oz. Thank goodness for my 7 lb babies.


So, tomorrow then. I am out!

You Had Me At Hello...?



Fun in the house...mommy had to get glasses. Oliver likes them too. Liam and I hanging out. Just some pics to share. Better go, Oliver is on the phone and Liam is crying. Oh by the way, Liam rolled over yesterday and Oliver said "cat."
