Life Without Limits

LOVE this book. Even though it was written more for the teenage crowd. I definitely got a lot out of it. In this book Nick relates some of his trials are how he got through them. He talks about the things he has and how grateful for, like his little left foot and all the things he can do because of it. This made me really think about all the things in life that I tend to take for granted and not even think twice about. This was not really a "churchy" self help book. It was just about looking at the things we have in life and how to be grateful. I loved it. It's definitely one that will have a permanent place on my shelf.

So Happy

Today we are so happy

Productive...not so much.

I did get a good workout in

but that's where all ambition died

Yep as I walked out the building!

Oh well because we are happy and that's all that matters

We are coming off the best weekend

We have been uplifted and edified by the leaders of

Our Church

So no matter how unproductive I was today,

I am still in a land of bliss

after such a wonderful, uplifting weekend

Maybe tomorrow I can accomplish something that I can see.

Because although I did wipe snot and nurse a baby... ALL. DAY. LONG

I can't see that at the end of the day so it's as if it didn't happen!

Ever had "that kind" of day

The kind where you do what you can to survive

just hoping that your husband isn't going to call and say that he is running late.

Your hair is a mess and you took a shower that morning got dressed only to take the jeans off and put the
 pj pants back on 5 minutes later.

The kind where the baby is strapped to the high chair like his getting ready to parachute out of this joint and looks like he is wishing that was the case.

And the kind where you when grocery shopping the day before, came home, put away the cold stuff and left the rest for another day.

The kind where your 2 year old doesn't even ask for a snack just grabs the grabs out of a bag exclaiming, "There you are" and goes to town eating them.

And the kind where you don't even stop him you just let him eat them!

Yep it happened to be "that kind" of day!

Hard at Work

When I let the kid out of his room this morning

I quickly realized he was hard at work in there

Then he came out and found a snack

He wanted that "sheese" really bad

I told him if he was that hungry then we needed to have breakfast!

He was cool with that but didn't want to wait find the baby to finish his breakfast.

Man life is hard when you are almost two!

Out my window

It's a winter wonderland!

We were supposed to get a little rain snow mix,

Nothing more maybe collect on the windshields and grassy areas.

I thought no big deal I still can get out and run my errands and make it to work out group.

I failed to look out the window until I saw that schools were closing

That's nothing here they are always closed.

So I turned on the doppler....it was all white.

I kindly asked the kid to open the window and see what it looked like out there.

YUP!!! All hopes of exercise group and those errands flew right on out the window as the curtains drew back.

It's all good spring should be here by the end of the week.

Winter just needed on last day. That's means I got one last day to lounge around and have a pajama day.

This little snow system was so the snow plows were not even ready so the roads have been trash all day.

I'm grateful I don't commute to my job and today I am grateful my husband leaves much earlier than the rest of the world.

So today you can find me on the couch watching movies with the kiddo!

Book #2

As some know I am doing blogging for books. I love this program especially when I can get children's books

The Dragon and The Turtle Go on a Safari

This is a children's book about a turtle and a dragon who go on a camp out and every noise they hear they think it is an animal that is on the safari. But at first you don't realize that they are imagining it. The deal is that they will stay out all night but with all the noises that are scary they decide to go in the house because they just can't sleep. When they get to the door they realize the sun is coming up and they did make it "in the wild" all night.

This is such a cute book with great illustrations. It is great to talk about what is going on. It's a book that older children can think and imagine right along with it. My 2 year old loves all the pictures and talks about everything he sees in the pictures

AHH Mornings!

This is my morning!

The kids being so good just hanging out doing their own thing!

And in three seconds flat the kid takes his clothes off and pesters the baby

That poor baby is never safe!
