Hot List

The last couple of weeks I have seen and discovered a few things that I LOVE!!

1. Finally something that I can get down with from Miley Cryus! Now, I'm not saying that I love her...I still think she needs to join Sarah Palin and Adam Lambert on a deserted island somewhere..but I am digging this video.

30 under 30

So...over at Alyssa's (http://suburban-chic.blogspot.com) Suburban Chic blog, she made a list of things that she wants to do while 30. I think this is a fun idea and kinda like the 101 list in 1000 days idea but much more attainable. I will turn 30 on October 28, 2013...yikes!!! Hopefully the world doesn't end in Dec. of 2012...:)

1. read the bible all the way through.
2. Start (and keep up with) Molly's scrapbook.
3. Teach Molly to swim
4. Make a t-shirt quilt (made from my old tees- I have 1000s)
5. Have 2 more kids :)
6. Get my masters in school counseling
7. Get tenured at school
8. Build a house
9. Teach Molly to shoot a basketball
10. Move up to high school coaching in basketball
11. Go to Normandy, France

I need some help!! What would be on your list? Leave me a comment and help out!!

Total Cuteness Overload

Last Sunday, we tried to take some pictures of Molly because she was totally cute in her purple dress and poof hair accessory. The picture below is before we fed her....


We also tried to take a family picture. You see how that turned out. The dress had spit up on it and it's "Dry clean only"...what kind of store sells "Dry clean only" cloths? Gymboree, that's who...but it's too cute anyways.

Here's the pictures we did get!! How cute and adorable is she!? Totally hamming it up for the camera!!

Then we put her in the Woombie and put her "down for a nap"...this is where ended up. I know we are bad parents!

I was doing some laundry and cleaning our closet out and when I came back in the living room...I found this! So cute!!!

You're going places baby!!

So since I'm kinda busy right now...in life....I use the weekends to catch up with the blog world...(hence the reason I have like 14 posts in one day)...but I noticed today that one of my favorite mommy bloggers is also a fan of mine...Thank you so much Kendra...her son is totally too cute and was born just a couple of days after Molly...I'm so excited...check her out at kendramendez.blogspot.com.

She's nominated me for a couple of blog awards...I've already received the Beautiful blogger award but thanks so much for it again!!

So without further ado...

The rules are simple, you have to blog about where you want to be in 10 years and then tag 10 fabulous blogs that are worthy of the award... so let's get to it.

Where do I see myself in 10 years?...

It's kinda weird b/c if you would have asked me 10 years (or more like 5 probably) where I would be...I would have said "Teaching, starting my masters, married with a baby"...and that's where and what I'm at. So, in 10 years, I'll be 36. I would like to have at least two more kids...I would like to be a high school counselor at Ozark. I would like to be living in the "last house" that Justin and I will live in...hopefully it's the one that we have thought about long and hard and built...maybe on 10-15 acres with a pond....oh and hopefully be an aunt (to my brother's kids) It's not a lot.

I would like to tag:

1. Mrs. F @ mrsforeste.blogspot.com
2. Melissa @ melandjimmyatkinson.blogspot.com
3. Leah @ leahandross.blogspot.com
4. Ashley @ thedomesticwannabe.blogspot.com
5. Mrs. Southern Belle @ mrssouthernbelle.blogspot.com
6. Meredith @ vivalabuenavida.blogspot.com
7. Heather @ 2thornberrys.blogspot.com

Time with Daddy

So this week, Justin started his paternity leave. He's a had a full week...he and Molly have gone out to lunch with his mom and dad, he's gone shopping...and he's been really good and taken some pictures.

They have snuggled...

Had some tummy time... Rocked the leg warmers... Played on the Baby Einstein playmat...Swaddled...Laughed...cried...and rocked out the Boppy... Speaking of being swaddled...Molly has not been a big fan of it. Really though, let's be honest...who would? Then last week, I was on the Bump (my secret obsession) and some posted something about this things called the Woombie. Now, I may be behind a couple of years, but I checked out the website and thought it looked kinda weird..but b/c I LOVE to try new things (and buy things for Molly :))....I bought one...it came this week....

AND SHE LOVES IT!!!

I'm not kidding...she slept the first night we put her in it for 6 hours straight...that's record! We could have driven a MACK truck through the living room and she would have never known!!

I think I might order another one...not only are they stretchy (so she can move more, and get her hands where she likes them, all the while keeping the startle reflex away)...but they are light weight so we can use it this summer. Plus they are comparable to other swaddle blankets. Check out the website here.

(The Woobie Company did not give me anything to say what I said...good-to-honest product review)

Okay...so you have seen a couple of pictures of Molly kickin it in some leg warmers. Now, she's only got 3 pairs (mainly b/c I've been afraid Justin would make fun of me if I got her any more) but I love them. The idea behind them is GENIUS!! Changing diapers are easy. So, why am I telling you this? Mrs. Atkinson (aka Melissa) over at The Atkinson Family's blog has a giveaway of the REAL leg warmers. BabyLegs is the true baby leg warmer brand. The ones that Molly has are from Target so I toally hope that I win this one. I've not won a giveaway yet. SO...stop reading my blog and head over to Melissa's and check it

Kisses!

It's Saturday!

And Justin and I are leaving this little angel for the first time since she was 2 weeks old. She is going to stay at Nana's tonight. She's excited! I'm excited! Nana's excited! Pray that it all goes well.

"I'm too cute for my own good!"

God Bless! I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Happy Tax Day!

Thursday was tax day! I hope you got your taxes in. As the daughter of an accountant, I've come to love April 15th. It's the day that my dad breaths a BIG **sigh** of relief. Molly will come to love it too! (b/c her she LOVES her g-pa!!) Plus...now....since Justin works for my dad, I have it x2. Justin has had a pretty good tax season though...well, you know...with the birth of his daughter and all.

To celebrate the end of the 2010 tax season...my dad and mom took us to Fire and Ice for some good fun and fellowship. Molly got to wear a new outfit (courtesy of Nana)

From Gymboree
With her daddy...he's sooooo tired!

Of course...the shoe shot!

The bow was a gift from one of my kiddos.

"Happy Tax Day!!"
