Cute friend and a baby

I am not sure if I have made the announcement on the blog, but I currently have a little more time on my hands. I moved from working full time to as needed at work so that I can focus on trying to find another job as quickly as possible and have more availability. I was feeling very overwhelmed and was in major need for a quick retreat and some time away from the house and Sally suggested we meet up at Commerce.

Commerce has some outlets and places to eat, but the best part is that is about 1 hour for both Sally and myself and makes for an easy day trip. So, Sally and her sweet baby Daye came and we all spent some time together. We ate and browsed and found so many cute, cute outfits for Daye. We only bought 2 outfits though, and Sally was experiencing some serious buyer's remorse even thought she only spent 16.00. So, I had to talk her through it and she ended up keeping the cutest tutu for Daye that I have ever seen in my entire life. Here is a picture of the doll baby in it:
I mean, seriously?? How precious??



It was great just to spend time with these two precious friends. I only have pictures of Daye and myself...to bad I didn't get any of mama and baby. I also didn't have my camera so the ones featured are from Sal's blog or from my phone.

I could not believe how much bigger Daye is getting!! It is so amazing to watch this sweet girl grow and mature. She is following people with her eyes and grasping and is such a wiggle worm. At one point during lunch, we looked up and Daye had almost done a complete turn over while in the car seat (not buckled in)....I am sure that takes some extreme strength and talent. It was fun to be able to spend some good time together and it was really good for my heart to be with them for a little while.

Thanks, girls for making the trip.  It was great!! Love y'all!!

On Faith and Suffering

Suffering....it is not an easy thing to bear up under. I feel that as life goes on, I am seeing more and more suffering around me. I have recently been through a tough season in my life. In the midst of difficult circumstances, it has caused me to look to God and question at times. I think sometimes in the Christian life, we are told, “Don’t question. Just believe. God is good all the time.” This, of course, is true but I think there is true beauty in the wrestling. In the coming out on the other side having a deeper faith because of where God has taken you on the journey. I have recently been reading in Hebrews and like God does, He somehow lined up the Scriptures and where I was reading to answer some of my questions right in the face. Questions like... “Why do people who love you have to suffer?” “I understand suffering is for your glory, but we already love you and are about your glory so do we have to go through it?” “Are you really big enough? Good? Faithful?” “Is it ...

Baby Jackson's Nursery

We are awaiting baby Jackson's arrival right now at 39 weeks and 4 days:) so, why not pass the time by sharing a few pictures of his nursery? We cannot wait to meet him and Ryan thinks that with the zoo/jungle theme we have going on in the nursery, Jackson is destined to be a zoo keeper.....we will see! I have had so much fun decorating and putting together his little room and I hope he loves it!!! Here is his crib with letters we made and a mirror that i love!!! His crib is from Target and the bedding is from Serena and Lilly  We got the letters from hobby lobby and then hot glued zoo animals onto the letters and the orange ribbon I was really into bamboo shades and love the way the windows turned out with the brown and white combo. His changing table is a dresser we got from the Pottery Barn outlet and then we got the cover from a shop on Etsy Ryan's dad repainted this rocking chair for Jackson. It was the chair that Ms. Cindy rocked Ryan and his brothe...

Lesson in the Messes

I am having a moment where I need some blogging therapy....been so long since I have hit the blogging scene but today I just felt the need for some bloggin'. At 9 am today, I was covered in poop and headed down the road of a full on melt down (me, not my 2 1/2 year old or my 10 month old---ME). We are in the throws of potty training and my type A self is taking accidents way to personally....am I alone here? I pray not.....Anyways, Jackson says he has to poop but I cannot get there because I am changing my 10 month old's poopy diaper and I tell him just to go in his Pull Up. Which I am going ahead and embracing Pull Ups after an accident soaking the entire couch and another one involving a fairly new rug!! Anyways, I finally got him out of his chair about 30 minutes later and there is poop everywhere- I mean EVERYWHERE...covering the chair, my son, his feet, his legs but I do not realize how much body surface is covered until I get him into his room and start changing him. I...
