Out in the Snow!

Most people here in the wonderful state of Colorado are complaining about the snow however, I was so excited to see it fall and quite a bit of it too. I couldn't wait to get Rex all dressed up in his snow pants and heavy coat and head out to see how much fun he would have. Last year he really didn't care for it much but this year I think, if yesterday was a sneak preview, that he is going to love it! I think not only my excitement to have fun in the snow with Rex but the fact that my husband works for a roofing company snow is a plus for me. It means that he gets to stay home all day with us and not actually have to work the whole time! I love winter! Here are some cute pictures from our 'Out in the Snow' experience.


He was so proud and excited to get in the snow. He couldn't stop smiling!


His favorite thing to do on anything that is half way soft is to free fall into it face first of course. So I guess snow of the frozen ground looked soft enough!


It must have not hurt because he's still smiling and this was his favorite thing to do while we were out in the snow.


I helped him make a snow angel but he fell back into it the wrong way before I could get a picture. He didn't really care about making one.


He soon discovered that snow taste good and started eating it. First he just starting sticking his face in it. Then we started having a snow ball fight (yes I started it with my 2 year old and the lucky duck through one right in my face) and then he decided that it was more fun to eat the snow balls than to throw them at Mommy. Thank goodness! With his arm and his aim I was in trouble. I won't be joining him for too many snow ball fights as he gets older. He will kick my butt! 

I'm so excited that winter is here and that we will hopefully have more snow filled fun days coming soon!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Changing My Lifestyle!

Well not only walking but just in general changing my lifestyle. I am currently overweight according to the doctors and the horrible BMI chart by 60 pounds. I seriously don't think that I will ever loose that much weight ever again. If I do great but not my goal because I want something attainable.  I have tried some many different things to lose weight and it just never works. Before I was pregnant I was right where I am now. My body has changed since I was pregnant but the weight is still the same. The good news I didn't gain anything after the pregnancy but the bad news is I still need to do something. So I'm going through the Made to Crave book and I love it. I have decided to change many different things about my lifestyle. I want to be able to have the energy to keep up with Rex and enjoy my life and right now it just doesn't seem to be everything it should be.  So here is what I have started doing...I eat only things God created. Fruits, veggies, healthy...

Frumpy or Fabulous?

Staying at home can create a sense of comfort. Allowing to stay in PJ's all day, enjoying just lounging of the couch and eating bon bon's. However for most of us homemakers we do not have this luxury of lounging and bon bon's. We have things to do with our children, house cleaning to do, and many thing outside of the house. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning just seems pointless. Excuses like I have to clean so why would I put on my 'nice' clothes or the baby is just going to spit up on me so I should just stay in my pj's since I will have to change later anyway. These are valid reasons on some  days to stay in our pj's but most  days we should get up and get ready just like if we worked outside of the home. It shows our husbands that we care about him and we try to make sure that we look good for him. It also shows are children good habits of getting up and getting dressed and ready for the day. If you read in Proverbs 31 you will see what a wif...
