Figuring Me Out

Figuring Me Out

Sometimes, as women we get lost in our relationships... lost in all the roles we assume on a daily basis. I know I've posted a couple of times recently about who I am and perhaps you all are getting tired of reading about my process of figuring me out, but ...

Potty Training? Um, No.

Potty Training? Um, No.

Zoe has developed a nasty little habit. She will "boo boo" and then decide immediately that she wants nothing to do with her diaper. So she takes it off. Imagine a 20 month old professional climber making her way up the side of my executive desk with a huge grin ...

How To Change the World

How To Change the World

This morning, I saw a tweet about Saddleback's online campus. For those who are unaware, Saddleback church was created by Rick Warren using his amazing church model, which is wrote about in his book Purpose Driven Church which now is an official ministry of Saddleback Church and actually has its ...

There Snow Place Like Home

There Snow Place Like Home

Yesterday morning, it started snowing... well flurry-ing... In Louisiana, that's a major deal. We can just about run around in shorts all winter. It gets cold for about 10 minutes and then it's summer all of a sudden. There's no fall and no spring. LOL Here is a photo of ...

My Girls :)

When the kids miss the bus, I often use our time stuck in the car line to snap a few shots of them before school. Here are a few of Avalyn, Talia, and Briyana from a few days ago:

Fibromyalgia, Tumors, and Me

Fibromyalgia, Tumors, and Me

I've had a surprising amount of dialog lately about Fibromyalgia. I have to say it's refreshing to have so many people know what it is... and relate to me. Being diagnosed 18 years ago, I grew up accepting that I had a disorder that no one understood - that many ...

Jealousy and Dreams {Life}

Jealousy and Dreams {Life}

I can't honestly say I don't get knots in my stomach when I listen to some of the newest music artists. Having a singing career has always been my dream, but as life would have it - I've had no real opportunities to pursue it... I sometimes am jealous that ...

The Me That I Am

The Me That I Am

With life as busy as it is, I admit there normally aren't many chances throughout the weeks to stop and seriously consider who I am... or what I am doing. I'm one of those people who - no matter how much I try to plan and schedule - typically ends ...

Well, we did it. It’s all finally here and everything is falling into place. Barry signed with an agent he is satisfied with and has MUCH faith in. He has trusted the Lord to get us this far and to guide our decisions and Barry has been able to decipher the right path to follow. I am so proud of him. He had a chance …

Y’all they are the best kids. You would not believe how well behaved they are and just SO sweet. We took them to get some shoes and walked around the mall, got a picture of Barry with them done as a sketch in a booth there. Barry and Kylan and Kaleb were all in heaven with each other. It was great… seems like things are …

UGHHHHHH Update……

I just made a long update… was almost done! Had written all about what I have been up to, and had a section for each member of my family as I always do. Well, the FRICKEN power went out for like a half second here and the PC turned off. I hate it when I lose stuff like that DERNIT! So anyway, I am not …

I am doing fine… working on the company’s website a pretty good bit, and actually almost ready to upload it to the actual site (it’s at my own personal server right now). Other than that, nothing real exciting going on with me.

Barry is doing great with the season… he’s still averaging 8 tackles per game with 48 total, and is still leading the team in …

I went to take her milk at the daycare at 3pm and when I walked in the baby room, the girl had my baby laying in a bouncy seat with her bottle PROPPED in her mouth with a blanket!  It was not even propped good- it was bouncing all over the place when she sucked so Ava was sucking air mostly!!!  I was extremely ticked …

Wow- Ava had me up last night from 1-4am… I don’t know if her little belly was upset or what.  She started daycare on the 11th and she is doing great there but I have been having a problem pumping enough milk for her so we are supplementing Carnation Good Start formula and that may have something to do with it.  We walked around the …

OK I am making a vow to myself right now to get DONE with my house. I have been doing the bare minimum lately, with no real desire to do more… and I have to make myself go through and finish. It has gotten to the point where I have about 5 loads of clean clothes sitting in baskets in my living room, and about …

What color eyes should you have???
brought to you by Quizilla
BROWN EYES
- Independent – Spirited – Down to Earth You’re down to earth, honest, and stubborn…
You’re intelligent and you love intellectual situations.
You’re very opinionated… when you have an
idea or belief, you stick to it and never back down!
You’re independent and you seek freedom.
You’re full of spirit and charm.

I’m boring??? Well, I may be… yeah, that just may be so. But I’m happy being me. And it seems like more people should work on that. My life isn’t all parties and hanging out and blah blah blah… it’s more like kids, hubby, sleep, newborn, work, grocery shopping, online journals, email groups, cooking, cleaning, field trips, snacks, homework checks, etc… but it’s MY life, …

Update on the family…

I’m waiting for Barry to get home so we can clean up… BORED as all get out, and feeding Avalyn. Tre is gone with him, and the girls are cleaning their room (supposedly, but they are more than likely playing LOL)… Ava is 5 weeks old today. Time goes by faster I swear each time you have a child! It’s like WOW five weeks seems …
