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!
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...
Great perspective. Have fun at the zoo!
