Can I please just say that I LOVE being a wife and mother? I have the best Hubby and Baby in the entire universe!!!!

Last night I invented a dessert. Imagine that. And Hubby likes it! Yeah for me! I am calling it "Apple Cinnamon Cheesecake." But...Maybe I need a more creative name? Any suggestions?

I made cubed steak and mashed potatoes for supper last night. My mom asked me today how I was going to top that one for Hubby. So...I guess that I will make my own version of "Rice Planter's Chicken." (Yeah, I try to improve Yesterday's recipes...)

Peanut is asleep. Poor little boy...He is teething. And it hurts. And all he wants is for his mommy to hold him and cuddle him. And his mommy is happy to oblige. Peanut likes the color red - alot. So, I have started to wear more red - and I am going to try to keep my fingernails painted red. Peanut and Mommy spend alot of time singing lately.

I just praise God everyday. There is something so special about seeing Peanut's face light up in smiles when I sing "Into my heart...Into my heart. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus. In today. In to stay. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus." God is so good to my family!

I bought the cheesiest work-out video umpteen million years ago when I had money out the wazoo and a very demanding 60 hr work week plus school classes plus an obsession with running 30 miles a week...(There was no time for sleep. And I wanted to workout more, hence the video because the gym closed at midnight...) I watched it for literally 30 seconds before I decided that it was a piece of cheesy crap. Now I can't run or go to the gym. So, I did the cheesy thing and worked out "cardio salsa" style. And...it's actually kind of fun. Especially when Peanut is on the floor scooting around and staring at Mommy as if she were crazy...And I got to see him roll over!

I am such a blessed woman. God has just showered me with his joy and blessings. And sometimes I feel guilty...because I know that I don't deserve all of this. But I will just sit back and thank Him for it.

If that annoying dog keeps barking...My neighborhood might just have one less annoying dog.

I can't wait for my handsome hubby to come home! I hope to have his dinner hot on the table when he walks in. And I am going to mop the floor - for the second or third time this week. I really like the way bleach smells. And I will vacuum the carpet for the fifth time this week.

Sounds like you're getting lots of house work in!! We'll have to start knitting or sewing or something soon. As the weather changes, I get more and more in the mood to do those things. Work has slammed me out this week. It's been insane. Glad to hear that baby is doing well. awww he's a cutie. :) Maybe you and shawn and baby and me and tyler can all get together soon. :)
