Okay, so you don't all think I am absolutely insane, I am the PROUD mom of 4 beautiful babies!! I absolutely love being a mom and yes, crazy as it sounds I loved being pregnant and even giving birth. My husband had a vasectomy almost a year ago and throughout the year I have had quite a few down moments. I am so blessed to have the 4 healthy babies I have and most days am so glad we are done. But, its hard to explain, but now that he has had the vasectomy I feel so sad that I will never be… Continue

Is anxiously awaiting the arrival of my son, who is 3, who just went to his first "Movie" in a big movie theatre with his gramma and big sister. I love how in AWE kids are and excited they are to do these things. I wish we could bottle it up!!!

But how dare me think that way or figure that I have an actual say in… Continue

I thought I was daydreaming as it had been a very quiet day, until my boss came to me and asked me to do loan paperwork for this gentleman.

He would then write in the loan documents that they must have a date with… Continue

Soooooo, it is a rainy day and the kids were up early. I swear they do it on purpose!!! Since the weather is crappy ( mostly for the twins) or I would be out puddle jumping with the big kids. Marshal isn't too fond of water, so I don't think a torrential downpour would suite him very well. Well, now to figure out things to do for the day. Is it reallllllllllyyyyyyyy so wrong to let them watch TV all morning??



Okay, okay. I decided to bake with them. We have done this lots before, but… Continue
