My Valentine

14 Feb

I was inspired by a friend.  She posted on facebook a poem she had written for her hubby during their dating years.  Not truly knowing if he was it for her.  I am pretty sure I gave this to mine the Valentine’s Day before we were engaged( February 25, 2003). Dreaming I dreamed of growing [...]

Denying the Date

27 Jan

As I sit here at 1:30 in the morning, I am disturbed by the memory that a year ago this time I was at the computer reading up on contractions that were coming 15 minutes apart.  A YEAR AGO?  It couldn’t be. What is it about the second child that makes me yearn for more [...]

YUM!

7 Nov

I know everyone talks about the food when cruising.  They talk about all the weight gain because of food being available 24/7.  It is a convenience thing…you never have to stop doing anything to make a dinner reservation; you always have an option of heading to a buffet or grill.  HOWEVER..the dining room gives you [...]

Dressing Up

7 Nov

I love dressing up…I love wearing clothes I would not normally get the chance to in my everyday life.  So the cruise offered us numerous occasions to do just that. Formal Night Final Night (I’m eating lobster..mmmmm)

I had wanted to get this post done last night; I tried to work on it today.  Alas, as it is with all things computer related, it is late at night and I am just now getting it done.  If you read this it is probably a day later, so I will point out. November [...]

Keeping it Real

29 Oct

Towel Animals

28 Oct

Each day we took pictures of our towel animals and sent them to Asher.  He loved getting the email pictures from us.  Nana and Papa would print them out for him, and he had them up with magnets all over their front door.  Here is your challenge:  Can you identify the towel animal?  Some are [...]

7, 8, 9 months

27 Oct

Wow, it is going by so fast I haven’t been able to post for all her months like I hoped.  I can’t believe she is already nine months old.  I don’t have any recent stats because I am avoiding the doctor’s office like the plague right now.   So here are just a few catch up [...]

Deja Vu?

27 Oct

So at 3:30 A.M. the day of Asher’s birth my contractions came on suddenly and strong. Long story but I had a weird labor with him. Anyway…that was when I woke out of dead sleep and came to the conclusion my body was ready to go. Well this past Monday morning…exactly 3 years later at [...]
