We all know being a mom is hard work! I am so very thankful that I had such a great role model in my mom growing up. She became my mommy muse for what type of parent I want to be to my kids. My mom is so very patient. She hardly raised her voice to her children, instead opting for a more gentle approach. I never wanted to disappoint my mom, and any time she said she was disappointed in a … [Read more...]
TJ has been sick this past week. A huge shout out to my Mother in Law, and my husband for staying home from work with him while I went to school (we only had 2 weeks left)! I hate seeing my little guy sick, all he wanted to do was watch his favorite cartoons Mickey Mouse and Jake and the Neverland Pirates. Of course his best bud is never far, Eli also enjoyed the lazy week! … [Read more...]
I am thankful every single day that I am a mom. I had been dreaming about being a mom from a very early age, but it wasn't until I was 31 that I became one. My son has made me a more patient, caring person. I have a lot more tollerance towards people now that I am a mom. The best parts about being a mom are when TJ looks at me and says, "I love you mommy." Sometimes he will also blow me … [Read more...]
I am so absolutely blessed to be a mom! Today was the best day ever, the only thing missing was my mom. Living so far away from my parents is very hard, especially when it is a holiday. I thank my mom so much for teaching me manners, right from wrong, and how to be the best person I can be. I hope that I can pass along those things to my son. My entire life I have wanted to be a mom. … [Read more...]
I am still in shock that my little man turned two last weekend! It seems like just yesterday that we were looking through a book of Baby Names trying to figure out what we were going to name him! Of course I had to pick the perfect theme for my little guy and he loves nothing more (except for his daddy) than Mickey Mouse! I wanted to do something else, but I just couldn't when I saw how much … [Read more...]
I can not believe that it has been two years since you were born. I walked into that hospital with so much anticipation, wanting nothing more than to be a mom. What I got was the most beautiful, kind, sweet boy full of life who has made me much more than just a mom. Being your mom has made me a more loving, compassionate human being and I can not thank you enough! This year you have … [Read more...]
TJ found his Easter basket from last year and decided to pretend that it was the hottest accessory on the market. My husband grabbed the camera for some fun shots. Its times like these that I miss being so far away from my family. I love that they can still see how beautiful TJ is through pictures (as you can imagine I have sent some large file transfer emails to my parents) and by visiting … [Read more...]
Just in time for his Mickey Mouse themed birthday! Thanks Grandpa, I will see you next week! … [Read more...]
My husband and I have been doing a lot of work on our house. The ice-storm caused some damage outside and we have been in a frantic rush to finish painting the interior before TJ's birthday later this month. My parents are flying in and staying with us and this is about the only time we have people over at our house because it is just so small. We have outgrown this little house. I am in … [Read more...]
When we found out that we were having a boy, I thought my husband and I would have to go through marriage counseling after trying to decided on a boy name. It was a difficult decision to name someone. We didn't want the name to be too cutesy because he would have to live with it for the rest of his life. We also wanted the name to be classic but not a name that we hear all the time. And … [Read more...]
