I recently picked up a Scotch Gift Wrap Cutter after seeing it advertised on the tele. I enjoy wrapping gifts and knew this handy lil’ gizmo would be well worth the $6.99 I paid for it. And man, was I right! I zipped through the gifts that I needed to wrap effortlessly making straight cuts [...]

Tennessee Christmas
This past weekend we visited my parents and siblings in TN to celebrate Christmas with them. We were supposed to visit during Thanksgiving, but I felt it would be too stressful on the four of us, especially MK and me, to travel that far. Nonetheless, we wanted to see my folks, since the last time [...]

Stars and Strikes
This weekend we started our Christmas celebrations with Hubby’s dad’s side of the family. We went to Stars and Strikes-a bowling alley, arcade, lazer-tag, and bumper car fun place. Not your traditional Christmas get-together, but just as fun as gorging oneself on turkey and opening presents. We started off with some bowling, ate lunch, hit [...]

Potty Training
Recently, EK has taken the initiative to potty train herself. No complaints here, just amazed that she is doing so well with it. Honestly, I have been procrastinating in this department of parenting because MK still consumes much of my time during the day, and I figured potty training would be one more added stress [...]

Good Morning
The other morning I was blessed when I opened the curtains in EK’s room and saw the beautiful sunrise. I had a spiritual moment; reminding me of God’s goodness, grace, and creativity. I thought I would share.
This is the day that the Lord hath made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalms 118:24

Chattanooga
I started this post last week and am just now getting to publishing our adventure…
This weekend we headed up to Chattanooga, TN. We drove up on Friday afternoon/evening. That was an experience to say the least. MK didn’t eat well or sleep well and was not fun to be around. After hours of questioning every [...]

Same ol’, same ol’
It’s been a little bit since I have added a post, but really there is nothing of interest to report. I am working through the newborn phase; still learning the ropes of breastfeeding, how to read MK, and getting all the gas/burps out. No, MK is not sleeping through the night (I get this question [...]
