Here are the ultrasound pictures of Baby. I must say that the pictures are quite blurry ‘cuz the little one was moving around like crazy. One of the most active times so far….except for when I play music. Seems this one likes to dance just like the rest of the family. Of course we also [...]
This past weekend we were lucky enough to welcome visitors to our new house here in South Dakota. It was fantastic to see Pete, Anne and the boys. There was lots of laughter & some adventure. One of the things we did was visit the Sertoma Butterfly House. It’s a very cool place to check [...]
Wow, it’s December already. I can hardly believe it’s halfway through the month. In just a couple weeks we’ll be packing up a massive trailer & heading to South Dakota. It will be the first time I’ve lived outside of Minnesota in my life. Not that I haven’t done some traveling but I never felt [...]
I don’t even know where to start….life is moving in so many directions some days I don’t even know which way to turn. We’re supposed to be working hard packing for the move to South Dakota…I say supposed to because it is much easier to promise to do the packing later & go play with [...]
We are staying at my parents’ house for the rest of the week/weekend as we attempt to find housing for the big move which is coming up fast. So far we’ve had lots of great prospects but unfortunately there seems to be something odd or not workable each time we get close….but that’s a whole [...]
For the love of Aunt Carrie’s corset I got my first ever blog award yesterday. My awesome friend Mary over at FitThisGirl was more than kind to award me one of her coveted 10. ”Becci!! I am nominating you for the Honest Scrap award!! I love your blog honest and raw humor, it is refreshing!”, [...]
Haven’t written much lately….I still don’t know what to say & even if I did I’m not sure that it matters. I’ll be honest I’m feeling sad today. I have had 5 pretty good days in a row but I feel my feet slipping on the edge & I am so tired of fighting & [...]
Last weekend when I had my head in the oven (no it was not a Sylvia Plath moment) at my brother-in-law’s house I was struck with the overwhelming memory of me as a very young girl in another kitchen.
I have such vivid memories of the first house I really lived in (the first house I [...]
As you may know (or not in which case you will soon learn) I have spent the long weekend in Missouri helping my brother-in-law move & clean up the old house. It has been a most bittersweet time as the circumstances for moving are not happy but we always have a good time hanging out. [...]
My husband is amazing! He is also so sneaky & patient it stuns me. Our 7th anniversary was August 31st & with everything so hectic & topsy-turvy we didn’t really celebrate. We did have a quiet evening at home & time together is always the best.
Today I got a surprise belated anniversary gift. It is [...]
