My First Born
I didn’t want anyone to forget this beautiful face during all this! He’s still his amazing self and growing like a weed. He is so big and the things he does and comes up with daily never cease to amaze me. 🙂 We are now entering that toddler phase I was dreading. He went from having an amazing appetite and loving his veggies to no longer eating his supper, unless it’s pizza or spaghetti night. He’ll go to bed hungry before touching his supper. He’ll pretend to take a bite or a take a small one and before it’s reached his tongue it’s back out and he’s saying “yuck!”. It’s…

Big 24 hours in the A household!
Warning: Brag post ahead. N is on fire the past couple days. We’ve seen it building over the past couple of months & especially this past month. It’s like a switch is going off.

He can’t be overlooked in all this. Where do I find the time to shower? Oh wait, I don’t many days. I’m lucky to brush my hair and teeth daily. And people wonder why I don’t have…

WWYS?
The other day was “National Text Your Ex Day”. What would you say? Mine would go something like this. “You’re just somebody I used to know.” “PS-Your wife seems like a pretty amazing person & your kids are cute.”

NaBloPoMo 2012
So I’ve decided I’m going to take part in NaBloPoMo this month. I always put it off and was going to this month because of everything that is coming up, like Mr. Man’s surgery next week. Then I thought it may give me something to focus on during those long days and nights while my little guy is in the hospital. For those of you that don’t know, NaBloPoMo is “National Blog Posting Month”. I’m really going to try. I need to start taking time for me and maybe this will be the kickstart I’ll need.
