Mommy's Musings

I have never been more tired...more overwhelmed... and more frazzled than right now in my life. I am sleepy. My dishes are never completely done. My laundry never stays caught up. Toys are scattered. I cleaned the toilets while Luci was taking her bath last night. My bed is never made. Dinner has been sandwiches more times than I can count. My eyes hurt from readjusting to staring at a computer all day. My pants are too tight. My belly is still squishy. My couch is constantly being scrubbed from spit-up. Sweeping doesn't happen often enough. My anxiety shoots through the roof when I am away from my girls.

I have also never been happier. I am blessed. I am so thankful. My heart is full.

I have a husband who loves me more than I could ever ask for...and daily treats me like a queen.

I have a sassy, smart, beautiful 4 year old who loves me unconditionally despite my ever constant nagging for her to pick up her trash and toys. She made me a Mom...and taught me how to love deeper than I could ever imagine.

I have a chubby legged, smiley, beautiful 2 month old who loves me unconditionally even when it takes me longer to make her bottle than she would like. She taught me that my heart could love another child as fierce and strong as my first.

I am so blessed. I am so thankful. My heart is full.

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we could ask or imagine." Ephesians 3:20

Halloween 2013- Doc and Lambie

This Halloween was probably our best yet...well, at least with Luci! This year was the first year she was reallly into trick or treating!

Mitch, Emmi, and I all attended Luci's "Fall Party" at her school. After the party, Mimi, PePaw, and Nana all came over to enjoy some 2x4 soup and cornbread...then it was time to hit the neighborhood! Luci had a blast! At one point she told me "Momma, I got this" and wanted to go up to the door by herself. She is growing up! I so love making all of these precious memories with my sweet girls!

Our little Doc McStuffins and her best toy side-kick, Lambie!

In case you are not familiar with the Disney show "Doc McStuffins"...here is who they dressed up as! Luci loves the show!!!!
