oh , i'm sorry....

is this not what you do

when you put the kids to bed?

and back to normal?

love you babe!

josh has a new business partner.

he's a little non verbal,

but super supportive.

tid bits.

i made this sign and hung it above my back door.

i'm hoping the message will stick.

we could all use a little more kindness, right?

we made these cute blocks at achievement days.

our activity was preparing for YW.

i thought they were cute.

so if you need an idea for primary or YW, there you go.

you could literally put any image on them.

we ordered ours from "poppyseed projects".

you're welcome.

and last but certainly not least...

a new swing for Griff!

he LOVES it!

he was laughing so hard when we first put him in.

he is pure joy.

have a good one!

help!

ok fellow bloggers, i need some help.

first...some back story.

last summer i was great with child.

i was lazy and unmotivated when it came to my perennial gardens.

i would pull weeds here and there, but come on

did you see me? not pretty.

i am now paying the price.

now they are great with weeds and grass.

i have tackled the weeds for the most part

but the grass is another story.

this is where you come in.

what do you do for this?

it is way too much to pull out.

is there and easy way out?

a spray perhaps?

what are your thought on Preen?

would a picture of it help?

help.

thanks.

2 of my boys and my brows.

dear you,

just wanted to let you know my eyebrows are waxed.

and my boys are cute.

and its friday.

and i'm going to see "the back up plan" tonight with friends.

and there is a wendys cup and 7-11 cup with diet coke in them

on my counter in this picture.( ihaveaproblem)

and have a great weekend.

time to go nurse.(TMI?)

kisses.

em

a few items to start your day.

#1. if you decide to make these, get down on your knees and pray

because eating these feels like sin.

thats all i'm say'n.

#2. i needed a little somethin' somethin' for my door for spring.

tulip and banner fits the bill.

#3. why does making my own bread for my family make me feel like a good mom?

because homemade bread does not a good mom make.

it just feels right.

and my kids and hubby love it.

thanks for the help carrie.

and all of you stop by for a slice anytime.

#4. this little girl was under the weather yesterday and i missed her like crazy.

she brings a toxic joy with her where ever she goes.

sickness for her is no longer an option.

luckily she's feeling all better.

#5. have a great day.

and ps. i'm not a bragger, just an informer.

i knew you were think'n it.

6 months! 6 months! 6 months old!

Griffin @ 6 months you:

*lean for whoever you want to hold you.

we enjoyed some yummy subways at the park.

i didn't feel like cooking after a full day of laundry& yard work.

griff even got in the action with some sweet potatos.

tag.

feeding the duckies is always a must for lizaloo.

off to the races!

and i couldn't resist a group shot.

pretend they are in matching outfits!

it was a fun night!

after we headed to wal-mart to pick up something

fun for me and griff!

stay tuned til tomorrow for the reveal!

Guess who's turning 6 months old this week?

i really can't believe it.

how has this gone by so fast.

i know, i know, he's still little.

but you see, i know how this story goes.

6 months, then a year, then 2, then preschool etc...

he is one of the best decisions we have ever made.

we love. love. love. this baby.

Finally!

some trip pics!

griffy is a little fishy just like the rest of them!

hotel room fun! no rules here!

ok some, but not too many.

griffs sweet beach "set up".

the sand got super annoying for him.

sam's self taught back flip into the pool.

that kids is awesome and daring at that kind of stuff.

enjoying one of our three dinners at cheesecake factory.

what is it with that place?

we love it! especially on trips.

we had the best time.

josh kept saying,

"memories are being made today."

i love being together as a family,

without the interruptions of everyday life.

i'm not gonna lie, it was exhausting,

but so worth it.

the best part, i flew down and home with the baby!

glee is back.

all is right with the world again.
