Questions About Life

Have you ever found yourself in one of those tin life where EVERYTHING just seems so hard?  I’m in one of those times right now.  For almost all of my life, I have been too busy; then my daughter was born and that changed everything.  She slowed me down, made me value family, and helped… [Continue Reading]

Craziness!

I started the year with every intention of posting at least once a week….and that hasn’t happened.  While I had good intentions, I don’t think I really realized just how demanding writing that much would be in the midst of the rest of life’s demands.  For one, I had no idea we would be attending… [Continue Reading]

Crushing Excuses, Expecting Results

I posted a status on my accounts across the social media world earlier this week that read, “I didn’t accomplish half of what I wanted done in 2010, but I REALLY enjoyed watching my babygirl grow up! 2011 won’t get away from me!”  That wasn’t hype, I was sharing a true resolve for the goals… [Continue Reading]

I’ve had my blog since early 2009, but I have never been really serious about blogging.  Until today, I have mostly shared about my personal life to include interesting situations, professional & personal accomplishments, and random thoughts. Obviously that has not kept me motivated enough to write on a regular basis, so I am mixing… [Continue Reading]

Another round with Candace and me.  She still hasn’t been able to beat me….and I am amazed at her number of excuses. However, I think i am going to have to let her win a dance every now & then….otherwise she won’t want to play anymore and the Wii will be a wasted gift. So… [Continue Reading]

Just Dance 2

Playing Candace’s Wii on Christmas morning. The funny thing is, she is the choreographer & dancer…..but I haven’t lost to her yet.  We have played several times, and she can’t beat me!  She needs to figure out she doesn’t have to dance herder….just move her hand the right way….the game only reads the control you… [Continue Reading]

Nine Months Old

Christina Joy - 9 Months Old

It’s hard to believe another three months have passed!  She is growing SO fast, it’s hard to keep up! To answer your main question right away, no…..she is not crawling yet….but she is VERY close.  She will get up on all fours and rock back and forth, but she hasn’t quite worked out the logistics… [Continue Reading]

Six Months Later

Christina Joy - 6 Months Old

I was doing regular maintenance on the site the other day when I saw it was over 180 days since my last post. When I looked back to see what the last post was, I saw it was the directions & other information I posted for Christina Joy’s baby shower. It’s hard to believe it… [Continue Reading]
