You Capture – Work

February 11, 2010 by Elaine

It’s someone’s WORK to drive these… It’s someone’s WORK to wear this… And these… It’s my WORK to fold these… It’s my WORK to make these… It’s my WORK to play with these? NAH! It’s a walk in the park compared to putting on that fire suit. Who has the more difficult day at WORK?…

WW – Proof that My Husband REALLY Loves Me & He’s Not Just Acting Like It

February 10, 2010 by Elaine

This is what my hair looked liked yesterday morning when my husband kissed me “Good Bye.” He didn’t say a word and I didn’t notice it until after a sideways glance at myself in the mirror in our half bath, an hour or so after his departure. I have NO idea how he was able…

FUN Children’s Music – Artist Joanie Leeds CD Giveaway

February 9, 2010 by Elaine

****THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED**** Music is a pretty big deal around here. Tim and I are both singers and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that at least one of our children will follow in our foot steps. Recently I was given the chance to review a new CD by singer/songwriter Joanie Leeds. Since I’m…

Two Winners!

February 9, 2010 by Elaine

Let’s keep this short and sweet! The winner of the Halo Sleep Sack is sweet Audrey from The Lewis 4. She said she will give it as a gift which I think is a fabulous idea! And the winner of the Suave Kids body washes is Zak from Raising Colorado. She has a couple of…

4 Months, 6 and Half Days & Some Hours and Minutes

February 8, 2010 by Elaine

As I hold my 14lb. 2 oz. baby girl or when she stretches out her 25.25″ inch little body, it’s a kinda hard to believe that 4 months (and then some) has already passed. In some ways it feels like less time since she became part of our family and it’s like we are still…

Running Back in Time

February 5, 2010 by Elaine

I went to the gym tonight because I wanted to try to cancel out the dessert I already knew I wanted to eat… oh….like yesterday. Oh and because exercising is FUN! WHEE! (just a hint a sarcasm there) And I did pretty good. I ran a total of 10 minutes, in five two-minute stretches and…

You Capture – Faces

February 4, 2010 by Elaine

My Favorite Faces… I love them all but this last one is my favorite. I was in awe that he was still for that long for me to take this beautiful picture. P.S. I LOVE my camera. P.P.S. Yes, I know two of the pics are cut off on the sides. I tried the new…

WW – It’s LIke He’s Growing Up or Something

February 3, 2010 by Elaine

The B Man caught me off-guard a little today when he walked in the kitchen while I was attempting to cook dinner and comfort his fussy baby sister (it’s apparently called “multi-tasking” and not “stressful” – whatever). He was starting to unzip his school pants while saying “Mommy, wanna see something funny!?” I was inclined…

Weekly Weigh In – Week 5

February 3, 2010 by Elaine

I’m becoming a broken record around here. My weight DID NOT change. Again. I’m not even going to post the number because, me personally, I’m tired of looking at it and you probably are too. Again, I did not GAIN weight but AGAIN, I did not lose. My theory is that I’m still taking in…

I Still Got It

February 2, 2010 by Elaine

I actually ordered some prints of the baby’s earliest days a couple of weeks ago and Sunday night I actually sat down at my desk and did a little bit of scrapping. It felt good. Especially putting pictures in the book that my friends pre-made for me – I felt extremely accomplished with that! HA!…
