"I Ceem"

What is "I Ceem" you might be asking, well, if you have a two year old and an eleven month old... It's ice cream. I took this pictures of the kids eating ice cream with Mimi after supper one night this past week. It was supposed to be Ella's treat, but Cullen had his own agenda too.

Mama "Choose"

This past week we were having some work down to our house, so we have been staying with my parents. Mama took some really cute pictures of Ella playing with my shoes. She kept saying "Mama choose".... so sweet....

Lazy Sunday.... Finally

Sunday's are normally not lazy for us. We are usually rushing around trying to get everyone breakfast and ready for church, late as normal. I'm not very good at getting up early to get things ready. I try to do as much as I can on Saturday night, but Sundays are always hectic, to say the least. At one point this morning, all of us, including Jake (the dog) were in the bathroom at the same time, and it's a really small bathroom. But, we made it to church on time, YEAH! Round one complete. Church ran late, didn't finish until after 12:15, then had to get the kids from nursery and decide on a place for lunch. Since we were so late we decided on Mexican, always fast, right? WRONG! It took over an hour just to order and get our food. Cullen choked on a chip, and then hit meltdown, would only settle down if Michael was holding him, Ella didn't want to eat her meal (but had no trouble with the chips, salsa and cheese). At one point I looked over at Ella and she was asleep, ASLEEP in her chair... so cute. She didn't even wake up when we got home. She's still napping and Cullen is finally down also. ROund two complete. So it's finally my lazy Sunday, at least for the next hour....

Thought for the Day!

Attitudes are contagious; is YOURS worth catching?

Most of the time mine isn't, but I'm working on it. After seeing this on a sign in front of a fast food restaurant where I live, it got me to thinking.

If everyone kept this in mind, how much more pleasant would your day be.....

Here We Go!

Ok, I never thought I would actually start a blog. I'm the one that just reads my friends blogs. I never post anything, because, honestly I'm still learning how... I know, I'm technically challenged!

A quick catch up for those that don't know me, or haven't seen me in a while... Michael and I were married in November 2005, Ella Reese arrived in June 2006 and Cullen joined the family in October 2007. Needless to say, we are busy!

I promise to make an effort to keep this blog up to date, but may need pointers and suggestions from time to time. If you have any time saving suggestions, please let me know.

I have a new camera and need to load the software, once I do that I will be able to upload new pictures of the kids. As for now, the most recent pictures I have are from Easter.

Ok,... here we go.....
