T.O.T (Ten on Tuesday)

I have decided that it is time that I begin to write more on this blog, mostly because everyday I pick up crumbs, wipe mouths and bums and sometimes feel any ounce of creativity running, no sprinting away! I love my life, my husband and kids and hope that you want to hear more about our crazy adventures too!

This post was inspired by Tanya:

T.O.T (Ten on Tuesday)

1) My birthday was yesterday! 29 years old. It was fun to get to spend another birthday surrounded by friends at Lakeside for the church retreat!
2) One would think that with both the boys in school (Noah full day and Josh half day a few days a week), that my house would be really clean because of all my free time...nope, basically I spend most of my time keeping up with the laundry and enjoying the random babblings of Eden.
3) The fact that Eden is almost 9 months old is crazy to me! She is such a delight and brightens the day of everyone around her. Even strangers stop me to ask if she is always that happy!
4) Joshua is finally slowly emerging from the stubborn terrible 3's! 3 was much worse than 2 for him, but I am really starting to see his sweet spirit. I just love it when he comes up to me with his face puckered up like a fish to give me a kiss...on the lips...on the nose...on the eyes...you get the picture!
5) Noah is almost 6 going on 16. He rides his emotions like a roller coaster and feels entitled to many things now as a 1st grader. We are working on his attitude and thankfulness right now. He amazes us and others everyday with the schemes, plans, and stories that he comes up with!
6) Part of my inspiration for getting started back up with this blog is Noah's dedication to the story he is writing with my Dad. Grampy and Noah are c0-writing a pirate story called "The BBQ's" and it is hilarious to type (word for word) the creative storylines that come out of his little head. I love it!
7) The last week or so has been really great for family time. Dave took some time to spend with Josh, Eden and I a few mornings last week and then we all really enjoyed being together at the retreat this past weekend (minus the abundance of sleep)!
8) Some days I really miss my parents and try to brainstorm ways to make money to go visit them sooner than planned! Today is one of those days...
9) If you have not yet, go check out thepioneerwoman.com, her recipes are amazing and a downfall to my waist!
10) Dave starts refereeing soccer games today, so our Fall schedule is off running!
