What, in life could be more valuable than great neighbors? Having recently moved here, I am acutely aware of their impact on my daily life. After having our car worked on for the 3rd time in less than a month I was, lets just say, less than happy when it was STILL making that noise [...]
One of the many things Ardmore (our neighborhood) does well is garage sales. Last Saturday E spotted an old church pew sample that looked almost exactly like this:
We were trying to decide on an offer when garage sale lady told us she had just sold it for $15. Dang it!!!!!!!!!
It would have been so cute [...]
I’m contemplating a move back to blogspot. I’m not sure about it yet and I want to be really sure because moving blogs 3 times would just be beyond annoying. Honestly, my biggest motivation to relocate in the first place to LOV was that I didn’t like my old name. I’m sure I had other [...]
**I need to preface this post by saying that despite all the bad, there was, in fact, a lot of good last week. I loved the time I got to spend with our friends and family. It just ended on a bad note.

(Deep breath) I think I would be fine with having all boys. This is saying a lot, because I have always had a passion for french-braiding. However, little 8lb. 6oz. Aubrey Michelle came into this world last night and practically overflowed the girly shaped hole in my heart that craves a daughter. I’m not saying [...]
I can’t begin to tell you how my life has changed and how much joy you’ve brought me this year. It seems as though my day revolves around you now, and yet you’ve just fit right in to our lives like you belonged here all along. I never knew I could love someone like I [...]
Why is running 4 miles behind 50 lbs of toddler easier than 4 miles on a treadmill?
How the how did the remote control battery end up in the recycling bin (which is in a child-proof latched cabinet)?
…fabric.
…my new favorite earrings that Ethan got me for Christmas. They’re peridot and pearl.
…having the day off.
…the quilt Ethan’s mom, Ronda made for me. Its actually kind of what this post is about. Its perfectly me. Its mainly yellow, although it has lots of different colors in it. The back is green and pink with roses [...]
