— Here’s What I Have to Say —

18 Weeks…Yesterday

June 20, 2012Dannie(0)
Yesterday I was 18 weeks along with Baby #2. I called Maddie “Thumper” when I was pregnant with her because she was such an active little thing. Well, it turns out, Baby #2 is no different. For a couple weeks now, I have felt some sporadic kicks and movements. Yesterday morning, though, I was laying...

City Select

June 19, 2012Dannie,Products & Places(0)
After lots of research and looking in person, we bought a new stroller for when Baby #2 gets here. We purchased this beauty. A friend of mine has one and she loves it. I know when I said it was for Baby #2, you probably assumed that it holds two kids. OH IT DOES! Look...

Ball Toy

June 18, 2012Maddie,Products & Places(0)
A friend was having a garage sale, so Maddie and I meandered over to see what they had. One of the things I bought was this ball toy. It has four balls and when you hit a button, air shoots the balls up. It’s pretty amusing to watch Maddie with it. Here are a few...

Maddie’s New Room

June 17, 2012Maddie(0)
I have been dying to switch Maddie into her new room. We decided to move her because the room we are moving her to is above the garage and has two outside walls. So it is colder in the winter. Something Maddie can handle just fine, but not the best for a newborn. I did...

Teavana

June 16, 2012Food,Products & Places(3)
A friend of mine has raved about Teavana, so the other day I was in the store getting a gift for someone and I thought I would try out some things. I’ve never found a tea I like, but I would like to like it. I tasted a sweet tea they had as a sample...

Maddie Randomness

June 15, 2012Maddie(0)
I have a number of pictures that don’t really need their own post, but I wanted to make sure I got them on here some day. So here’s a bunch of random photos for your enjoyment. Maddie has been getting teeth for what seems like months. She loves ice cubes. She likes to hold on...

Some Days

May 31, 2012Maddie(0)
Some days your toddler will yell at you about everything. Some days your toddler won’t want to eat lunch. And some days the only way to get your toddler to eat lunch is to give in and let them hold their doll so they will at least eat strawberries for lunch. And the Cabbage Patch...

Sarah’s Key

May 23, 2012Books(0)
Last night we met for book club. The book we read was Sarah’s Key. It seemed to be a big hit with everyone. Here is a summary. Paris, July 1942: Sarah, a ten year-old girl, is brutally arrested with her family by the French police in the Vel’ d’Hiv’ roundup, but not before she locks...

The BIG Pillow

May 18, 2012Crafts,Maddie(0)
Chuck’s wonderful mother, Linda, tackled another project I have wanted done. We went to a friends’ house one night and they have this HUGE pillow on the floor for their kids to play on. She sent me the information on it and I knew I was too cheap to pay for something like that. So...

15 Months Old

May 16, 2012Maddie(0)
We just went to Maddie’s 15 month check up. The doctor was quite impressed by her. (I’m happy even if the doctor tells that to everyone!) She was 32” tall (long?) and weighed 19 pounds 7.5 ounces. She’s just a tiny little thing. Well, tall and tiny. It’s a challenge to find pants. She is...

Blocks & Blankets

May 14, 2012Maddie(0)
I just thought these pictures were cute. She was playing with the blocks and a blanket. Then she put the blanket inside the block. She also appears to be talking (or yelling at the blocks). My favorite picture She was very into something on tv.

With Love, From Maddie

May 13, 2012Maddie(0)
Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful moms and moms-to-be! I traced Maddie’s hand and then had her do some coloring for her Mother’s Day cards. They turned out really cute! We did make some small step while coloring. Maddie usually likes to eat the crayons. This time she just licked them and then tried...

In Need Of Hats

May 12, 2012Maddie(0)
Maddie likes to put things on her head. Toys, jackets, baskets. Blankets. Blocks. Buckets (sorry, bad pictures). Seriously. I think the girl could use some hats.

My Not So Sweet Girl

May 11, 2012Maddie(0)
As a follow up to yesterday’s picture, I thought I should also share this one. Yep. Maddie has found her nose and it’s apparently lots of fun to stick her finger in it. I’m not sure if you can tell, but she has a HUGE smile on her face because she is so proud of...

Rearranging

May 9, 2012Dannie,Glendalough,Maddie(0)
Last weekend, we started cleaning out my craft room. Which has really turned into the room I throw anything I don’t want to deal with at the moment. So I lovingly call it my “Crap Room.” Before too long, we would like to move Maddie into that room. She hasn’t slept over night anywhere but...

Chairs & Boxes

May 3, 2012Maddie(0)
A while back, I bought Maddie a chair she could sit on in the porch or driveway with us. She loves it! She sits in it all the time and pushes it around. These pictures were from quite a while ago when she was playing outside on a chilly afternoon while Chuck was building the...

Every Day

I found this quote and thought that everyone out there has had a day that wasn’t great. But sometimes you need to look at the bright side. Have a fabulous day and look for those good things every day!

On Thursday, April 26th at 2:07 pm, Chuck became an uncle, I became an aunt and Maddie became a cousin! Chuck’s sister, Paige and her husband, Brian welcomed their little bundle of joy into the world! She weighed 5 pounds, 9 ounces and was 19 inches long. She is the most precious little thing. When...

My hubby and I watched this show (Silo). I didn’ My hubby and I watched this show (Silo). I didn’t know until it was over that it was a book…and a trilogy at that. I will say, I think I liked the show better. I know, I know, that’s the opposite of what an avid reader usually says, but I just couldn’t get into the book. Maybe because I knew what was going to happen, but the events weren’t nearly as compelling or dramatic as they seemed in the show. It was good, but just not as exciting as I was hoping. I’ll sure I’ll read the other books at some point, but I’m not in a huge hurry.

Check this one out if you want more detail from watching the show.

I squeezed myself into my wetsuit and helped chuck I squeezed myself into my wetsuit and helped chuck move our big lift out deeper. The water is so low and in the hopes of not getting the boat stuck on the lift and maybe getting a couple more rides, we managed to get it out a little farther. Thankfully we had a dock section we could move so we could make the lift deeper and still get into the boat.
