It's one of those mornings that I just want to sit and snuggle and play with my baby. It's snowing. We did all most our grocery shopping yesterday and have no place to go today. Weatherman said 3-6" by Wednesday but we already have about 5" and it is still coming down. It has been a rough week to be a mommy.

She is changing her napping schedule and has had two nights in a row where she woke up for a "snack" (nursing) … [Read more...]

But it gets better.37 of those already include stamps and are addressed!Only 37 of them are that way as you have to have them addressed to get the stamps included. I … [Read more...]
More Random Facts About Me You Never Knew You Wanted to Know
Remember this post? I have decided it is time for more random facts about me. -I hate unsolicited advice. With a passion.

Drives. Me. Nuts. -I have to have some form of chocolate every day or else my day is not complete. -I sew because it is cheaper to make what I want then to try to find … [Read more...]
