Born Again!

Okay...so I cannot post the video I want on here. But if you go to youtube and search "born again third day", select the very first video it brings up. Here are my thoughts...look how happy these people are when they are raised. It absolutely thrilled my soul to watch it and praise God I AM born again!!!!!!!

I figured it out!

I figured out how to change the background.

I found my verse s for today...

Jeremiah 29:11-14a
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the Lord, "and will bring you back from captivity..."

Okay, while typing that, some things came to me. First, keys parts to me...1)seek me with ALL your heart and you WILL find me and 2)call, come, and pray and I will listen.

Also, have you ever noticed that verses like this are not written in past tense but instead present or future tense. You probably already knew that but it just came to me. To me, this means that our God IS a living God. He is not dead and only did those things for people of His time, but, instead is alive and doing them for ME!!!!! Hallelujah and Praise God!!!!!!!

Have a wonderful day!

Angry...

I feel angry today. I'm sure that it is a lot of things just weighing down on me...going back to work in less than a week, trying to get personal paperwork organized, taking care of kiddos, trying to keep house clean and laundry done, and most of all trying to my spiritual life back where it needs to be. I know my sisters are going to tell me two things...1)Spiritual life comes first and 2)You can't do it all. So, for you sisters, I am going to the word today...

HELP!

I am trying to change my background and am having tons of trouble. I follow the directions on the cutest little background or whatever it's called but then it doesn't make the changes when I view my blog. Help please!

Yea Friday!

YEA!!!! It's Friday! You may be thinking "What does she care what day it is...she gets to stay home everyday!" True. True. BUT Friday means the weekend is near and I get to sleep more because hubby will be home and HE can wake up in the middle of the night and feed Baby Girl...at least one time. The other times I have to wake up because he doesn't have the "equipment" to feed her.

Some thoughts for Friday...

You know you are a mom when you take a drink of your heavily sugared up coffee and think "man my creamer smells soured". But then realize it's not the creamer. It's you and the dried spit-up that your daughter left all over you and the bed in the middle of the night and you were too tired to clean it up!

Peyton's idea of a quick shower...new diaper, clean clothes, teeth brushed, hair wetted (I'm sure that's not a word!) down with mommy's spray-in conditioner and fixed with daddy's gel, and a nice big squirt of daddy's cologne. Oh well...it's Friday!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Love

Okay, Here are some pictures of some great things that have been going on in my life. I titled this post "Love" because some of these are from Valentine's Day and other are of my loves. I know I always post a lot of pics at one time but that is me...Enjoy!

Here are the gifts that the kids and I made for their daddy...aka my hubby!

And this is how we looked after the project was finished...

Me and my babies.

My blue-eyed girl.

Baby girl's name that her babysitter made on her cricket...or however you spell it. We painted the frame on the wall and then put her name in the middle.

Her room. We are not completely finished with it. We...I...still have to put up decor and clean off the dresser. If you have any ideas for decor, please feel free to let me know. But please know I don't do characters and very little flowers. Yes, we did paint this ourselves...with the help of our lovely babysitter and girls from our basketball team. And it would not be this clean had it not been for my loving sister #3...and trust me it really is clean! I know you are jealous of the paint job but believe it or not we really are not professionals... :)

Sweet baby girl sleeping today...too precious for me not to share.

Snow ice cream that hubby said was nasty and wouldn't even try it.

I really wonder what is going through kiddo's mind right now??

Mommy and kiddo with the finished product.

Snow Day 2010!

Before I begin, I am going to have to post two times just to get the pictures on here I wanted to show you.

Hubby and kiddo with finished product

Our house...I know...we don't have any flowers in the flower bed and it looks really tacky but that is a spring project.

Just a neat picture I thought.



Baby Girl while we were outside playing.

The attempt at Mickey Mouse pancakes on such a beautiful day!

Kiddo's playground covered in the white stuff.

Is this the life for me???

So I have always said that I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom...my mind may be changing...quickly! The past two days I have been at home with both kids. Granted I love both of them very much but I think I have spanked my 2-year-old more in the past two days than in his whole life. Now I have not beat him...you non-spanking believers. But I have disciplined him. How many times and how many ways can you say "get out of the trash", "do not eat stuff that was in the trash" or "quick digging in the trash". Like I said, I love my children more than anything but I think the three months during the summer are stay-at-home-enough for me...I think.

I will try to get a picture of baby girl smiling...it is hard to make a 3-week old smile though.
