Nana & Poppy

Connor is loving every minute and keeps asking them not to leave (breaks my heart)

Mom and I went shopping this morning, something we don’t get to do often.  Love shopping with my Mama!  We went to lunch and then Mom and Dad let Terence and I have date night.  We haven’t been on a night out by ourselves in at LEAST 4-5 months!  Thanks Mom and Dad.  We saw World War Z with Brad Pitt and it was really good.  Zombies freak me out though.  Still a great movie, I would recommend it.

They are spoiling him rotten.

We got Connor a cookie with sprinkles at the mall today & my Mom texted me tonight and said she gave the cookie to Connor and he said “It’s so beautiful”

Ha ha!  So sweet.

I’m a Clean Freak #AirSpeedONE

I love to vacuum.  Now, I know that may sound crazy to a lot of you, but I’m serious.  Growing up my sister would make fun of me and call me “Miss Cleany”.  I’m also a tiny bit of a germaphobe and get OCD tendencies when it comes to cleaning my home.  My husband can vouch for me here…but I vacuum at LEAST twice a week.  There is just something about having a clean home that helps me feel better and less stressed.

I was thrilled to try out the Eureka AirSpeed ONE Turbo Vacuum from Walmart.  Putting the vacuum together was a snap.  Literally, it just snaps together and voila you have a vacuum ready to go!  We have hardwood, tile, and carpet in our home.  All of our bedrooms are carpeted and we have two big area rugs in the living room.  Having a 3 year old in the house there are constant messes to be cleaned.  I remember one time he got a cup of red jello and spilled it everywhere!  Talk about freak out.

Yes, Bon and I thought we were pretty funny in those days….fam22Here is our nursery when WE were babies 🙂

We were stationed in Germany at the time, and back then you didn’t know if you were having a boy or girl.  So my Mom planned a gender neutral room.  Sesame Street themed.  It didn’t take long to fill up the room with girly dresses!

I ordered two blouses, the first one fit great and the other wouldn’t go over my bootydoo, so as gorg as it was I had to return.  BUT, you better believe I’ll be getting something else just as fab my ladies. 

Shabby Apple has the most adorable dresses that have a modern vintage feel to them.  I’m not really a dress person, I do wear them occasionally.  I have to dress up every day for work, so I ordered two blouses and they were beautiful!

Love this boy more than he’ll ever know.  No matter what, at the end of the day he and his Daddy are all that matters.

“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declared the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’” (Jeremiah 29:11).

The Bible says that God’s will is “good, pleasing and perfect” (Romans 12:2).

D7K_2060Connor always  has to have little cars in his hands.  He is obsessed with “baby cars”.D7K_1886

Connor and I have had a bout of upset tummies.  Dad’s at the grocery store right now getting food for the week….we love him <3

Horsing Around

The past week Connor’s school brought horses for the kids to ride.  Now all he wants is a horse of course!  Ha ha!

They had the best time and we just love his school.

Here are a few pictures of Connor enjoying the horse ride 🙂D7K_2019

I’ve had a really hard week at work and I just ask that y’all would pray for me.  I know God has a plan for why everything happens & when one door closes another opens.

I’ve always been a positive person and I’m not going to let anyone rain on my parade or my attitude about life.

Everyday is a blessing and enjoy every second, cherish those you love, and don’t take anything for granted.
