The realization that the laundry isn't clean and put away, dust is stacking up on furniture, and the house hasn't been picked up in a couple of days has sunk in. Everyone laughs and says that's what happens when you have a baby and all the extras that come with them. I haven't quite figured… Continue reading Lists, Bathtubs, and Faith

Little Q is 1!
Little Q is now 1 year old!! It's surprising how fast that time went and amazing how much we love him even more every day! He has blessed our family more than imagined and want to spend as much time as possible with him. My husband, D and I are grabbing all the snuggles we… Continue reading Little Q is 1!
Holiday Traditions
Santa, trees, and elves! Lights, music, and food! Establishing traditions while little Q's a baby seems like the most appropriate time, even though I'm certain we'll add to over the years. Q saw Santa for the first time this weekend and we are planning to take their picture together soon. To begin with, we had to point Santa… Continue reading Holiday Traditions
Blessed
Laundry is done, however not put away, little Q is teething and is getting over a cold, the house needs to be vacuumed, and we looked up what needs to be accomplished to renew our passports but didn't start it. The house still isn't decluttered, the baby wet through his diaper so his sheets need to be washed again, never got around to planting my potted flowers in the ground for winter, and am unprepared for the holidays. On the up side. We have heat for the winter, a solid roof over our heads, working vehicles, shoes on our feet, food to eat, and clean water to drink. Everyone is healthy (other than colds), we have beautiful fall weather, are both employed with good jobs, have some incredible family and friends, each other, and an adorable adopted little Q. I had a rare weekend to relax with my precious family and even took a snuggly nap with Q. We are sincerely thankful for everything and everyone in our lives. We are extremely blessed!
Toddler Entertainment
We were recently sitting at a restaurant with little Q in his high chair just letting out screams. Big, happy screams mind you, but screams, nonetheless. He then smiles big before more screams escape. At least the table close to us didn't seem to mind or notice from what I could tell. They must have noticed he was… Continue reading Toddler Entertainment
Enjoying Little Q
He constantly entertains us and makes us a better family. Sappy, I know.
Toasted Marshmallows and Wet Dog
Camping with a baby and a dog. I often wonder about our thought process' and parenting skills. Shh, don't tell Little Q!
Pool Party!
My husband took a picture of me last night in a blow up pool erected in the living room who then texted friends to establish if an intervention were required for me. Okay, so it was a little large for the living room, but I intended to purchase a big pool to play in so it was perfect.
