My hectic month!

So the month of March. Well March has been busy and full of ups and downs. Yes we are only nine days in and I understand that but a lot can happen in nine days people!

So I will start here... (be prepared that I might creep back into the month of February just a bit)

Last week was a pretty emotional one! My mother is a person who jumps the gun on everything. (And yes I seriously do mean EVERYTHING) She overreacts, loses her cool, and all this usually happens after she has picked up the phone and called me! Yes, I get the pleasure of being on the other end of the line while she spouts off! Usually it is about my little sister and how she is doing this or how she has done that! And then come to find out later my little sister didn't do any of those things and my mom yet again jumped the gun! So that becomes a taxing point in my life!


We have been spending a lot of time with my little sister lately. She doesn't really like being home with my mom so for the most part on weekends she is with us. And it has been such a blessing to have her in our house! She has asked to move in with us and it pains me to turn her down but we just don't have the room. Now that she comes up almost every weekend she comes to church! It is so great to watch God work in her life! It has been a wonderful opportunity to minister to and help her. And my realtionship with her has improved ten fold! I now have a better understanding of who my sister is and we are really starting to become quite good friends!



I have recently decided to start a vegetable & herb garden. Yes, me with no green thumb at all has taken on the task of container gardening! Pictures of my families little endevor will follow! My SIL Holly sent me a bunch of great seeds to get started! I am excited to get them planted but now am in need of more containers! Hoping that I will be able to find some at publix or other such stores! Or if anyone has any buckets, containers, anything that dirt and some seeds could fit in please pass them my way!


I have also recently become a fan of TBW and Diaper Swappers. I love wearing my baby and love that I have these sites to guide me. My husband says I'm silly, but I say I'm informed! I have recently purchased my SIL's Iris for the price of a didy purple waves! Which was an awesome deal! Also I decided to go one step futher and purchase another wrap! (it is quite addicting and I couldn't help myself!!) I purchased a Girasol Green Tea blue weft 4.6! I am so excited for it to get here sometime this week!!! I can't wait to put Ethan in it! Then take a ton of pictures! So those will follow as well! But I do have a cute picture of him in my Iris. So here it is!





I have also been turned on to swagbucks! I am half way to my first amazon GC and am super excited! This getting something for nothing is great!!! All you have to do is use their search engine to do everyday things and just like that you obtain swagbucks! Again my husband thinks I'm silly but I'm not hurting anything I tell him :) So try it out and see if it works for you!


So this month of March hasn't even began to be busy! We are booked every weekend until the end of this month! Hoping that this month will be a good one and that hopefully in Apirl I will get to finally go up to my friend Jess's house and see her! I so hope that all works out!


Ok I am now going to go back into the month of February please bare with me! Alot has happened! So last month was my birthday month and we had a tone of Fun! For my birthday weekend we took Austin and my little sister to Disney! Here are some pictures from our weekend spent there!







And with that this ends my really long Blog!

slim in 6 will be the death of me!!!

So it has been a long time since I last babbled anyone who reads this to death! So I figured it was only fitting to write a post to of course babble!

So I have just started (monday 8/3) this new workout program called, slim in 6 and lets just say that I hurt everyone you could possibly imagine hurting! (not kidding in the least!!) So well this work out program is really fufilling it is also very painful! I am way out of shape! I always think to myself when I am working out, Thank God my husband is asleep and can't see how silly I must look! Slim in 6, is a 6 week program. So I am hopping in 6 weeks to lose 36 pounds! I don't know if that is possible or not but at least some weight lose will be better then none.

On a different note. Jon and I have decided to finally take Austin to Disney World, or as we call it DW for short since we don't want Austin to hear us discussing it. For Christmas last year we recieved 3, 3 day passes to Disney, so we figured that it is about time that we use them! So for Labor Day weekend we will be spending some time in Orlando. I am very excited, because I have only ever been to Disney once in my life and well it wasn't the most memorable experience since I was sitting with my little sister the whole time well my mom and ex step dad decided to go on all the adult rides! My sister was 5 and I was 14! Not my idea of fun. So it is like I get to re-live my childhood when we go next month! We have been saving up money like crazy for our hotel rooms and our gas and for whatever Austin will want well we are there.

Random thought for today, I wonder if I can grow Basil?? Hmmm, I have been wanting to grow a bunch of herbs fresh and dry some out and keep some fresh to cook with. My husband and I have a cute little porch garden going! We love plants so much! I can't wait until we finally buy a house so that I can set up beautiful gardens all around!
