I've finally begun making cloth diapers for my Chunkiest Monkey. Oh, and I got the cutest material on clearance -even better yet.
The picture of the boys reminds me of the saying "Sometimes love hurts" -and at the moment it looks like one of em' was feelin' the love! They just love each other and it makes a mother gush with happiness.
The hats were Christmas gifts for my nieces. A gift from the heart to keep them warm this winter. Although with today's weather you'd never guess it is winter. We go from having 20 degree weather to having it 55 degrees.
Tonight I made a quick trip to the fabric store and the warm air reminded me of when I was younger taking night time drives with the convertible top down. I turned the music up loud and sang along. Something about the weather and night time turned me into a teenager again. You know when I weighted 100lbs, had gorgeous hair and cool clothes. When the only thing I thought about was what I was going to wear for the next get-together with friends. What brings back that youthful feeling for you?

Heavenly Peace


The Nativity and all that happened that night 2,000 years ago, still changing the world today. Changing my family like many others over the entire globe. Jacob woke us up Monday morning at 6:00 am and told DH and me that he wanted to ask Jesus into his heart. This has been my heart's prayer that either my DH or me would be able to be the ones who lead our children in this prayer when they tell us they are ready. I couldn't have asked for a more precious Christmas gift. Christ gave Himself as a gift to us and now my sweet Jacob accepted that Gift. Merry Christmas.

No Help


Yup, no help. That's how I'm feelin' about this stinkin' blog thing. Why on earth will some pictures post and not others. You know, the ones you actually WANT to post? I am tired of spending hours on this thing. It's supposed to be fun, not a chore. So, if I can figure this out I will post again. If not, see ya when I see ya. Wish me luck. Or even better yet, if you can help, e-mail me. Keeping my fingers crossed...

Baby It's Cold Outside

Yes it is cold out there. How much colder could it possible get? Wait, never mind I don't want to know. My big tree out back, the one that gives off such cool shade in the summer is now bare. Well as long as we're in here I guess I won't let it bother me too much.

Boys. Ya either have 'em or ya don't. And I've got the sweetest ones made. Jacob loves to squeeze on Jackson. And Jackson doesn't seem to mind much at all. I pray they stay the best of friends and closest of brothers...
