I can't believe I still haven't shared Sawyer's Birthday!!! Where has the time gone? I was so excited to put together this fun Mickey Mouse 1st Birthday party thanks to Party City. I had a really hard time picking a birthday theme and spent a lot of time on some birthday sites and often found myself on Party City because they had all the themes I was considering in one place. Not only that but … [Read more...]

{Wordless Wednesday} Baby Bunny

Last week I was so excited because all my plants and seeds were growing great! Then the other day I went into my garage and found all plants like this and was so upset. We figured a chipmunk was in the garage again. We leave all the doors open a lot so it's happened before and it's such a hassle to clean up from. Not so much. It was this adorable baby bunny rabbit. Isn't (s)he … [Read more...]

He Won’t Sit Still!!! Thank Goodness for Huggies Slip-Ons! #firstfit

My little guy isn't a baby anymore. He's a toddler. I keep trying to deny it because he'll always be my baby. Then I see pictures like this and I see the little man he is growing into and he's clearly a big boy. While he loves his mama and won't let me be far from reach- he prefers to be down and exploring. He doesn't want to be held down and he certainly doesn't want to have to slow … [Read more...]

{Wordless Wednesday} 18 Miles

On Mother's Day I wanted to go for a long bike ride. Hubby wasn't feeling it and neither was Gavin so Johnny and I took off to do our entire bike trail. However, Johnny managed to talk me into taking the new detour. They've been attaching all the trails recently and now most of the trails connect to other ones. We ended up going through 4 towns and a total of 18 miles! (this is the RuKeeper … [Read more...]

Keep Clean with LYSOL Power & Free! #PowerandFree

I'm so glad that winter is behind us. I'm so sick of being cold and lock in doors. I'm so happy to finally be able to crack open the windows and start cleaning. I know that sounds crazy but in the spring I always get that urge to purge and it's great! I always start with the closets in the house and toss out lots of expired items. I do this through my kitchen and and my bathrooms. I also take this … [Read more...]

Seed Your Garden with Egg Shells

Some how over the years on Mother's Day weekend I've ended up not seeing my mom on actual Mother's Day but we see each other the entire day before. We went downtown to the big city Farmer's Market and we get a bunch of plants for our yards/gardens and split them up. When we got back we went back to her shed and green house and inside she had a bunch of old egg trays filed with seedlings. Since … [Read more...]

I’m sick of being fat.

I almost left this post titleless. In fact this is the fourth time I've written this paragraph because well, really, who wants to admit we're fat? I wasn't always fat either and I still wouldn't call myself obese. At least I don't think. I'd like to consider myself pleasantly plump. I'd also like to tell you that I'm happy with who I am and what I look like but then I'd be lying to both of … [Read more...]
