At the pumpkin patch on Saturday Little G ran into the field of pumpkins screaming “BAHWL!!” He thought all of the pumpkins were orange balls and couldn’t wait to roll them around, especially since most of them were too heavy for him to pick up. One of them even obliged and began to roll down…
Ok People, If I Am Gonna Do This, I Need Your Encouragement
I am trying to decide something. The decision isn’t that hard to make. I want to do it. What’s hard is the commitment. What’s REALLY hard is following through. So, the week before last I started thinking about running. I’ve been back to working out regularly for a few months now and it feels great…
Memories of My Granny
Last week I posted a picture and a few words about my Granny and I promised more. Here’s the more… My paternal Grandmother, Annie Zahn Hosek, was born of Czechoslovakian immigrants and raised on a farm in South Texas. I am gonna guess from the day that she started talking she rarely stopped, except to…
Weekly Winners 10/5
September 29 – October 4 There may be a few too many pics this week and they are ALL from the trip we took down to the pumpkin patch on Saturday. By the suggestion of Tim’s grandparents we ventured out to a small town (practically in Oklahoma) to this great farm run by the the…
This N’ That
Here we go with some randomness. Of course I like the weeks when my husband is home but there is one down side. He eats my Skinny Cow ice cream cones. And, when I don’t know that they are gone and…I have worked up my taste buds to have one later after the kids go…
It Was the Last Time & I Didn’t Even Know It
Sometime last Saturday was the last time Little G nursed. As far as I can tell it was the last time EVER. Today he didn’t even try to go there. And now, I am crying. It’s the end of something that at first I wasn’t even sure I wanted. The end of something I realized…
WW – Wordless OR Wordful… Whatever.
This is me and my paternal Grandmother, pictured 15 years ago after my final choir preformance as a senior in high school. I was so proud that she was there to hear me sing and see me “in action.” It was a first. My “Granny” hailed from a teensy town in south Texas and didn’t…
Messy Independence
Little G has always been an independent eater. When he was an infant I tried feeding him baby food with a spoon and that lasted maybe 2 weeks. Let’s just say I was tired of washing it off of and out of everything. Including my own hair. So…. by 7 or 8 months I was…
I’m Feeling All Domestic Like
Yesterday I found myself doing something that I NEVER thought I would EVER find myself doing. It’s not that big of a deal or even that ODD to some, I am sure, but it does seem a little antiquated to me. And this is my blog, so I am asking myself (and you)… who vacuums…
Weekly Winners – 9/28
September 21st – 27th I only took a few pictures this week while on a trip to the park with some of our friends. We were supposedly on a nature hunt. We found some nice trees, a cool rock, a “flower” (a.ka.blooming weed) and a beautiful sunset. Oh and some cute kids! Unfortunately only one…
