Give Me That Girl!

Give Me That Girl is a country song that I have loved for quite a while. I don't normally listen to country music unless my husband's around and I'm almost certain that it was his favorite song before mine. I bought it on iTunes and have listened to it for months but this morning something all of a sudden hit me. If you listen to the lyrics it's talking about wanting the normal every day moments. I have posted before about dressing for your husband and not allowing yourself as a homemaker to just live in PJ's but today this song stood out to me. My husband wants the normal every day girl too! He doesn't want me all dolled up every day (and thank goodness because I don't do it). One of my favorite lines today was "Give me that girl thats beautiful without a trace of make up on barefoot in the kitchen singin' her favorite song". Why? Well that exactly what I was doing! I had just got out of the shower and dressed and came down to cook breakfast. I turned on my ipod and that song came on and I was singing along! I haven't put on any makeup, done my hair, or have shoe's on yet. Although I completely agree with my other post about dressing for my husband I also see the need to just be comfortable and relaxed too. I'm so glad this song showed me that today! Although I'm getting dressed today (heading out to the zoo) I know that if there are days that I'm not dressed that those are just as important for both myself and for my husband!

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...
