Auntie came over Sat. night to hang and chat. Ofcourse, she didn't come empty handed...she rarely ever does. Kiki sent her with an early Christmas gift for the P-man. He was so excited to open it. Christmas this year is going to be so much fun now that he's in to the unwrapping. He got the cutest

Mommy thought it would be fun to see "nap time" from P's perspective. I'm lucky I didn't break the mattress. P thought it was pretty cool that mommy was in his sleepy time place. In fact, now everytime he goes to sleep...he thinks mommy should get in too. I must admit, it was pretty cozy.

J & I are HUGE shoppers; however, we usually don't battle the BLACK FRIDAY crowds. I say "usually"...because this year we made an exception...and went to see what it was all about. I can't say we got much shopping accomplished. We purchased a few Christmas presents and called it a day. P got a

Hey Sweetie-I hacked into your blog and uploaded this video. I hope you are not mad. I wanted to give you a little surprise for our 4 year anniversary. We've overcame many hardships and often times I don't deserve such an aweome wife, so I am so thankful to have you in my life. Did I mention

P was so excited that we were putting up a tree...INSIDE! He loves to play outside and I am pretty sure that he thinks this tree came from our backyard. He kept pointing and saying "uh", "uh". Like "mommy, how did you get that tree inside our house?" He was totally cute helping daddy. I just sat

We have officially started to decorate for Christmas! J spent most of Sunday evening getting down our decorations from the attic. I opened the garage door to find him...half in the attic and half out. Him climbing the latter completely stresses me out. I always ask him if he needs my help and

NOW...or I'll smack you! (look at his little deceiving grin...don't be fooled...I caught him in mid-smack!) ROTTEN! P loves his Klay Klay friend! He has learned how to give out hugs...and guess who gets most of his lovin'? Nope, not mommy. Miss K! I'm assuming he likes her more than me because he

Hallelujah! I haven't been updating you too much on the house plans, but there's a reason. We went through a period of a few weeks where we had the perfect house plan drawn up...and no roof! What I mean by no roof, is our architect was having a hard time figuring out how to make the roof work with

As most of you know my hubby has 2 blogs of his own: Good Financial Cents (his money blog) and Financial Dad (his daddy blog). He takes blogging very serious folks. :) In fact, most of our conversations over the last 6 months have had something to do with blogging (hence, why I started my own). I

Last week P got his fourth haircut! Daddy was due too so it was a father/son day at the hair salon! He usually does so good sitting still and this time was no different. Miss Layne (our hair stylist) decided he deserved a sucker! Unfortunately, while mommy, daddy, and Miss L were gossiping away...P
