Woo Hoo!

I had been wondering when and if the big 1-0-0 was ever going to happen and it has! Alot more quickly than I thought too! Im amazed. I hope I still have some readers. I know Ive been a bad blogger. I dont have alot of time anymore and I apologize. I know my lack of time makes for a boring blog. Im planning a small giveaway soon so stay tuned please!

99 Followers!

Almost at the big 1-0-0. Thats pretty amazing to me and sad at the same time because I seem to have less time for it. I thought I would post more when my mom was here but I spent most of my time just enjoying my kids and squeezing in the *me* time. (My me time included going shopping by myself! All you mamas will understand that one. Catching up on season 4 Army Wives. Hot baths and a good book. I also got my haircut and eyebrows threaded which was a whole new and strange experience for me haha!) When I do reach 100 followers I plan on having some form of a giveaway so stay tuned!

Hope everyone out there in bloggerworld had the bestest of holiday seasons! Things were good here except for on NYE my son hurt his hand and we ended up in the ER for xrays. *sigh* They said nothings broken but his thumb and pointer finger is still swollen. I have a feeling the ER and I will get to know each other quite well for this kiddo.

A Very Vintage Book

To-day's Stories Of Yesterday - edited and pictured by Frances Kerr Cook (copyright 1925). I have had this book ever since I can remember. Some of the pages have become brittle and have fallen out but I have managed to keep them together and covet this book. My favorite story has always been "How the Tulips Came to Have Bright Colors" because its about baby pixies using the tulips as cradles. I have no clue how I aquired this book and when I googled it nothing came up. Someone out there in vintage bloggerland has to know something about this book!

Nothing New.

Not much has changed since my last update, except Im more tired and the kids are a growin'! Its been almost 3 and a half months since my mom was last here to visit and seriously..Im losing my mind! I need a break so very bad. She gets here early Saturday morning and by Saturday afternoon I predict that Im locked in the bathroom taking a bubble bath while reading a book. My lil man is 2 and a half and the princess is coming up on 10 months soon. TEN MONTHS! It doesnt seem that long ago that we brought her home from the hospital *sniff sniff*. Anyways, I havent really gotten a chance to buy anything, although I still have a few things Ive been meaning to take photos of for a long time now. So since I enjoy blogs with pictures and equally enjoy showing off what good lookin kids I make, heres some pics..



Taken a few months ago in the fall.

First Halloween.

Wish mama had lashes like that.

This is a very old one because lately my son has become really hard to get a good pic of, plus hes so darn cute here.

Also taken a few months back in the fall.


There you have it. Also a big thanks to the new followers! XO!

An award, 9 followers and some news!

Wow. I havent posted in over a month and in that time La Dama from Vintage Passions Just Like Mine gave me this award!

Probably undeserving but mucho appreciated. Thank you!
Also Im thinking maybe I need to walk away more often because I gained 9 followers without blogging a thing!
On to the news.. here goes.. the stress I was feeling about my son was due to waiting on referrals and appointments for evaluations. Evaluations for autism. Although Im still not 100% convinced in my heart Im happy to say the developmental pediatrician does not think he is autistic. He does have a speech delay and hes been in early intervention since July and has recently got into speech therapy. He has been progressing really well, especially since Daddy deployed, which is strange because I thought since it was just us everyday he would regress more but thankfully he hasnt. Thanks to all who has stuck with my blog. Your support is sincerely appreciated.
P.S I finally joined Facebook! haha! Yes..I gave in.

Busy Bad Blogger Deployment Blues

I have been gone FOREVER in the blogger world. Yes I know. We are 45 days into the deployment and Im exhausted between being mommy, daddy, and everything in between. At some point I may explain further why Im not around much anymore, but today isnt the day. Besides the deployment Im also dealing with some stuff about my son and Im stressed beyond belief. Ill be around so dont stop following! I just may not be around as often as before. Hope ya understand.
