Busy Bee

As I began making dinner tonight for myself, Skip, Little M, and Skip's uncle and grandmother, I mentioned to Skip that I had not read any blogs at all yet today. His response? 'Are you feeling okay baby?' Haha. Needless to say blogging has become a huge part of my life. A part I love! But also the part that seems to have fallen at the wayside recently. Having a toddler is soo much more exhausting than a newborn. I may get more straight hours of sleep at night, but gone are the hours of blogging and watching TV while snuggling on the couch with a newborn. Before 9 pm tonight the only times I had sat down all day were when I was in the car running errands and during dinner. And even then I was getting up every 2 minutes to get something for Little M to eat, or pick up something she had dropped. I love, love, LOVE everything about my life and being home with Little M, but boy is it exhausting! I am happy though that a lot of my lack of blogging and commenting has to do with the fact that we have all been spending a ton of time outside recently enjoying the sunshine and warmth. I won't take any of these beautiful days for granted! So I do apologize for my lack of blogging and commenting {though I do catch up on all your blogs at some point during the day!} and promise to find more time to do it!

I also leave you with this cuteness....Little M having her afternoon snack of milk and a donut, relaxing in a short-sleeved onesie. Life doesn't get any better!

    It's funny - I was thinking the same exact thing! I'm sitting here, catching up on my 138 posts I haven't read yet! (I'm skipping around of course) Luckily your husband sounds like a support for you...mine, about 5 seconds ago, said "blogs are a waste of time!" Mmm-K honey. Thanks.

    Good luck getting caught up! :)

    Don't feel bad, I'm always behind in the blog world.

    I'm feeling the same exact way these days. Proof it's 11 at night and I *just* got Isaac to sleep. The difference between a newborn and a toddler is astounding.

    I feel the same way! I get a lot more sleep (recent development) but I am exhausted from chasing after her. I can't imagine how much more tiring it will get when she is walking! It really is making having a newborn seem like a snap.

    It seems like the older they get, the more difficult they become. And to think that I thought having a newborn was so hard!

    Enjoy the nice days! We've been having them as well, and it is so nice to not be cooped up in the house all day!

    Love the picture! :)

Spring Giveaway!

Image
First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
