This isn't where I parked....

are the words that just came out of my husband's mouth as he landed in the floor. Needless to say, there was a bit of rough-housing going on between the biggest boy in my house and the bigger boy in my house.

Look at this goodness!

 I'm sure you are asking yourself what this is & let me tell you...delish!!! You MUST try this Cajun Chicken Pasta  recipe! You can find it here. It was UH-MAZE-ING! Why I didn't discover The Pioneer Woman sooner, I do not know! I can't wait to try another one of her recipes!!

I made this for Jimmy's Father's Day Dinner! It is one of his favorite dishes! I wish I would have made him a cheesecake but I didn't have time!!! Maybe I will make one this weekend!

 I am SO happy with how this baby quilt turned out. It was a gift for a new cousin that is due next month. I can't wait to meet Mr. Cooper James!! The picture below is a close-up and it is Oh So Adorable!!! There was a matching set of burp cloths too but I forgot to take a picture.

 So we are moving in the next few weeks and I will sure miss this barn. I love the way it looks after it rains. I love the country feel. I love seeing the cows up around it. I love how it looks when there is a storm cloud above it. The only thing I don't love about it is when the lights are left on at night. It looks like something straight out of a horror movie!

I leave you with this cuteness.......

It's hard to believe that he will be 1 next month!

Oh Wednesday!

i think sleep deprivation has set it.
i'm not loving that.
baby is teething & the last 2 days have been rough.

today was a great day for a nap.
dark skies, heavy rain, perfect nap setting.
but it didn't happen for me.
baby was not having it.
big boy slept 4 hours.

i am loving the rain. we needed it.
i am loving last night's GBG meeting. i love those girls so much.
i am loving that Sunday is Father's Day.
i am loving Modern Family. i do not know why we didn't discover it sooner.
i am loving that most of my crafting is in one room. soon i will have it all in the same room.
i am loving my girlfriends. without them i would be lost.
i am loving my sister who is getting married 4 months from today.
i am loving that we will be eating steaks all summer and we didn't pay a fortune for them.
i am loving coupons.
i am loving my boys. all 3 of them. they make my life complete.
i am loving life.

now i need some sleep. even though the baby is still crying.
we are working on the "cry it out method"
it is not working.
poor big boy has to hear baby cry at night.
hopefully it will be over soon.


night.

From "Mommy" to "Mom"

 

 That's Who I have become.

Well at least to this 5 year old boy.

It has been a very sad realization.

That I no longer hear "Mommy."

I hear "Mom."

Where did the last 5 years go?

I always knew this day was coming.

I just didn't think it would be so soon.

I'm his favorite.

The one that tucks him in.

Kisses his boo-boos away.

Fixes his meals.

Changed countless diapers.

Snuggled for hours on end.

Rocked him to bed every night.

Holder of his bottle.

Lego builder.

Jungle Gym.

He's my baby bear!

I can't believe I no longer shop in the toddler section.

He's a big boy now.

But I have memories.

Memories that I will never forget.

He made me a Mommy.

My first baby boy.

There is no greater love than a Mommy and Son.

I love that he's a "Mommy's Boy."

He will forever have a big chunk of my heart.

I will always be there to tell him "It's ok."

I'm the only girl he needs right now.

I enjoy every one of his kisses.

But believe me, the first girl that stomps on his heart, will get a piece of Mommy Wrath.

And I know that one day I will hear "Mommy" again.

We just have to get "Ma Ma" down first.

Because I will feel the same way when this little Monkey no longer calls me "Mommy."

Cameron & Neyland,
I love you
a bushel and a peck
a hug around the neck
& more than anything else
in the whole wide world.
Love, Mommy

Enjoy every moment, every snuggle, every kiss. Trust me.
