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!

Media Monday: How it affects my child

Media is neither good or bad. Last week I talked about media in our marriage and a little bit about our family and media but today is all about Rex and media. Rex loves cartoons! Right now he happens to be watching Veggie Tales while eating lunch. This is not a normal thing at all. I can't remember the last time he was eating while watching TV. Today we had a crazy time and he asked to watch a movie and I didn't have a problem with it. Plus it's Veggie Tales.  We have a limit (during mommy in charge time) that he is only allowed to watch one movie/TV show each day and some days we don't watch anything. When daddy gets home things change and the TV is on within minutes of being home. Rex normally doesn't care that the TV is on because of our daily activities. He plays or helps me cook unless daddy is watching adult cartoons then he is more interested.  This past winter I found us watching more TV than I planned ever to let my children watch. So once it start...

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 ...

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...
