Big boy bed!

Yesterday I, yes I, converted Calebs crib to a toddler bed. Its one of those convertible cribs. We got a guard rail to put up. We were kinda nervous thinking he might fall out but he did great! I cant believe how grown up he is! He will be 2 in 2 weeks and I just cant believe it! Time flies fast! It has been the biggest joy of my life. To create this baby and watch him grow. Being a mother is the biggest blessing in the world and being Calebs mommy is the blessing of a lifetime!


Great find!

On my MT forum I found a cool book site. www.paperbackswap.com. If you have a ton of books, like I do, that you havent read in forever, or dont ever plan to read, or just need to get off your shelf- ck out this site. You can post those books and get credits for posting them. With you credits you can pick out books that others are getting rid of. They notify you if someone wants one of the books you posted and you ship it to them and vice versa. So you only pay shipping but it comes out even bc the books you order are shipped to you at their cost. I think its great and cant wait for my books to come. Oh and every time you ship a book and they receive it you get another credit! CK it out!

Check this badboy out!



So I was watching the Everyday Italian on the Food Network and saw this recipe and had to make it. Oh so yummy! I am so proud of myself. I am getting out of the "Hamburger Helper Box". Trying to mix it up a bit. Josh was totally impressed and it actually tasted fantastic! Yeah, so proud of me! Oh, its called Pork with Sweet Onion Marmellata. Mmm mmm good!
Josh plated it for the picture! Great job baby!

He went potty again!

So Caleb was tugging at his pants and I could tell he wanted to try and potty. I sat him on his potty thinking he wanted to poop (because he gave me a few good grunts) and then pee started shooting out. The new potty chair we got him doesnt have a very big shield, so he doesnt fit in it unless he leans forward. I was so excited!! Hes pooped in the potty and now peed! I thought potty training was going to be a nightmare but its pretty fun. So anyways we took the top off his old potty and set it on our toilet to see if he would poop and here are the pics. Too cute!

Pizza Night!



So last night we decided to make pizzas instead of order out. Josh and Ashton made a SUPER cheezy pizza. Too much cheese if you ask me! I made my favorite pepperoni, mushroom and black olive and it was perfect! It was really fun too. We had a great time! I think it ended up being cheaper too!

If only American Idol could catch on! Hello!!!!

Your Dominant Intelligence is Musical Intelligence

Every part of your life has a beat, and you're often tapping your fingers or toes.
You enjoy sounds of all types, but you also find sound can distract you at the wrong time.
You are probably a gifted musician of some sort - even if you haven't realized it.
Also a music lover, you tend to appreciate artists of all kinds.

You would make a great musician, disc jockey, singer, or composer.

Motivation

I am trying to get motivated to get more school work done throughout the day. I honestly thought I would be done by now or next month, but second half of the course is taking me longer. I had no idea what it would be like, so I am not upset that its taking longer than expected. I am upset that I am not making more time to get it done. The sooner I finish school, the sooner I can start working and contributing to our income. My motivation is big. I want to be able for us to get into a larger duplex or rental home by the time our lease is up in Sept. I also hope to be able to start trying to grow our little family by around that time as well. So anyways, I say all this to motivate myself. I have alot of reasons to push me forward. Please say prayers for me that I will be diligent in my work and be proud of the quality of it.

He did it again!

A few weeks ago at my parents house, Caleb pooped in his potty for the first time! He hasnt done it since, but he does like to take his pants and diaper off and sit on the potty. He did it again today and actually pooped! This is the second time hes pooped on the potty! Never thought Id get so crazy over POOP! Hopefully he will be potty trained by 2, less than a month to go! Heres a pic of him on the potty.This one is with his Pull-Up on. What a big boy! PS thats chocolate on his mouth. He got a cookie as a treat!

Calebs First Snow Day

When we woke up we found that it had snowed! So we took Caleb out to see it and play! He loved eating it. We had to dig out alot of grass and leaves from his mouth, oh well! Heres some of the pics:

INFATUATION!

I am so totally infatuated with my son. He is a dream child and I just think he is the cutest thing I have ever laid my eyes on. I am so blessed to be his mommy.

Also, I have never been more in love with his hot daddy. Last year was a very hard time in our marriage and we came close to quitting. I am so glad we didnt and pushed through. The valleys are so tough, but the mountaintops are so awesome! I am a blessed woman!



Womens Ministry Classes

So, we have been attending a new church, Heartland Workd Ministry Church. The pastor, Steve Hill, is from the Brownsville Revival in Pensacola, FL. Anywhoo, his wife is starting a Womens Ministry Class that is going to last several weeks. We will be learning from several different women in different aspects of ministry: prayer and intercession, worship, evangelism, missions, etc. I am really excited to go and even more excited that God has brought us to this church. Totally different than our last church and I feel more at home here. I am so excited to learn from these women, especially since I feel that my call is to women and worship. Boy do I have a lot to learn and a long way to go. For you who pray, please pray that 2007 is a year of refreshing and renewal in my relationship with the Lord!
