Eight days without a computer. Y’all. I never knew how dependent I was on that thing until it died. I am going crazy! While the iPad is a good stand in for so many things, it is just not the same! We ordered our computer and I am checking the status every hour to see if it has shipped. As …
She’s a Barbie Girl.
If you couldn’t tell from her Santa Letter, Chloe is definitely a Barbie girl. Since getting her first Barbie when she was two, she has slowly come to love playing with Barbies. I played with them starting around this age, too. I LOVED pretend play and my sisters and I {and my dear cousin} would spend hours in front of …
20 months
First of all- The Ancient Computer of 2004 has officially died. It was a day I both dreaded and prayed for on a daily basis. I’m not positive of the extent of our loss- I backed up the big stuff like pictures and videos in November, so I know those are safe. And hopefully we will have someone get everything …
InstaFriday
Happy Friday! Here are a few pictures from our week! We went to an indoor bounce house place with Krista, Owen, and Ella. Jack and Chloe loved it! If you missed it, the armoire is finished. YAY! Here’s Chloe with Izzy at her Fancy Nancy birthday party! LOVING this book. It should be on your reading list for sure. Here’s my girl with …
A few bullets for you on this lovely Thursday morning…
While taking the picture above I was laughing harder than I have in a long time. It is definitely one of those “you had to be there” stories but I felt it needed documentation on the blog anyway. I had just walked in from my weekly Sunday Sonic Happy Hour run and we were opening our straws. Trey had his …
Armoire Reveal!
If you don’t remember, I bought an armoire back in November. My best friend Jennifer, who has some major decorating skillz, spotted this beauty at a local resale shop and texted me right away. We knew it was perfect for a large nook in our Master Bathroom. It was $250, so with not a lot of persuading, Trey agreed that it …

HAPPY FRIDAY! Here’s my big boy with his Target prize for no more passy– an Elmo microphone that sings his favorite songs at the moment- “If you’re happy and you know it” and “Old MacDonald”. And let’s talk about that hair! It is so thick and curly. I think he probably needs a haircut soon but it is just so …
Bye bye Passy!
Jack did it! He gave up his pacifier! This momma is so proud of him. We went for a dentist visit and she said it was slightly affecting his teeth, and we were already thinking it was time to say bye, so we did! Dr. Holly recommended that we cut his pacifier and go slow and it worked great! We …
Birchbox.
Confession. I am a makeup junkie. You wouldn’t know it, because I don’t wear a ton, but I love makeup. LOVE. IT. I would buy new products daily if the budget allowed. I wish this was my vanity. Source: thepinkcherries.tumblr.com via Sherry on Pinterest No seriously. The table, the lights, and all of those products. I want! Well, …
We got an upgrade.
Well folks. Here I am typing my first post from our new iPad. Love it but definitely going to need to get one of those wireless keyboards! It is so much more fun blogging from the living room on our comfy leather chair instead of from the guest room on our computer from 1972. Thank you, Pops! We’ve had a …
Reading List 2012
I read a few really great books in 2011. The Hunger Games Trilogy and Sarah’s Key were my favorites of the year. I am counting the days until the Hunger Games movie comes out in March, and our next RedBox rental will be Sarah’s Key! I love it when I’ve read the book before I see the movie. We went …
{almost} Wordless Wednesday
I’m posting on Dallas Moms Blog today, but I had to share some fun pictures of our day at the Dallas Arboretum last week. I love going here, especially when Trey can come, too! Snow White was there and Chloe was so sweet about meeting her!
2011: A year in review.
Source: marian16rox.tumblr.com via Sherry on Pinterest 2011. Where did you go? I feel like the years just go by faster and faster! 2010 was a hard one, but 2011 made up for it in many ways. Here are a few posts that remind me what a year we’ve had!! First, there was the crazy snow storm that left me without …
