Milestones:)


First of all my baby is 3 months old already....sniff sniff! It really does make me sad. Anyways, here are a list of facts about Crew just for my documentation:



  • refuses to sleep in his crib during the day (can't figure this one out)
  • sleeps incredibly awesome at night (in his crib that he refuses to sleep in during the day, go figure)
  • has sweaty hands just like his oldest brother, eww!
  • loves bathtime
  • will drink from a bottle when I have no time to nurse him (hooray)
  • loves to stare at ceiling fans
  • loves all his siblings and smiles like crazy when they talk to him
  • likes to be held
  • likes to be outside
  • turned out to be such a happy and good baby when I thought he was going to be unhappy and colicky (thank goodness)
  • loves to sit and watch people
  • hates his binky and will only take it in desperation
I love this little guy so much and he owns my heart. He can't roll his eyes at me, talk back, and slam doors. He lets me hug and kiss him a million times a day and loves it. He's great and I want him to grow up sloooooooooooooow! He's 13 pounds of pure bliss!

Second, Curtis and I just celebrated our 14th anniversary yesterday! This milestone makes me happy. I asked him today if he was going to stay with me for another 15 years and he replied "atleast another 50!" Well I sure hope so because he is the best! Here are some facts that make him so great:

  • he puts up with my insane OCD issues
  • he still loves me even though I HATE TO COOK
  • he works hard to provide for our family so that we never have to go without
  • he puts up with my love for spending money
  • he eats leftovers (this is a big bonus)
  • he'll buy all the embarrasing things I'm too embarrased to buy at the store LOL!
  • he does all the things I hate to do (go to the post office, get an oil change, scrub the toilets, etc.)
  • he's the best dad in the world
  • he's honest
  • he's funny

These are just a few off the top of my head but there is MUCH MORE! I always laugh inside when people talk about how much he hunts and how "good I am to let him!" Really these people just have no idea how much he deserves it. It's not something I "let him do" it's something I want him to do! He is an essential part of our family and we are so lucky to have him. I am so lucky to have him.


Life is great!

SuMmER FuN GiVeAWAYs...


It is officially SUMMER as of June 21st! HOORAY! We are so excited and also for all this sunshine that is coming our way! After 2 weeks of rain we are excited to get outside and do some real summer activities. So in celebration of summer, I am doing a drawing for a "bucket o' fun" and a drawing for some indoor "creative colorful fun" just in case it decides to rain again. Rainy days can be fun too! All you have to do is leave a comment about something you/your family loves to do during the summer. On friday I will put the names in a bowl and have someone in my family draw out two names. YEAH! Now go and enjoy the sunshine!
