Snow is overrated

wow, I haven’t blogged in a while.  I’m sorry!

what have I been up to?  Well, I’ve been doing laundry, reorganizing, cleaning bathrooms, sweeping, mopping, washing dishes, playing with Isabela, reading baby books, singing annoying songs from annoying toys and having them stuck in my head all day, folding lots of teeny baby clothes, trying to plan Isabela’s first birthday, cooking, Bible time, church stuff, slowly getting the house ready to sell next year, dusting….changing lots of diapers, cuddling with my dream  baby…attempting to be creative…

did I leave anything out?  I’m sure I did. Basically, I have been being the bomb-diggety stay at home mommy and house wife.  So, yes. I’ve been busy and for a couple of weeks, I had to choose between spending my time of facebook or blogging, and I chose facebook, lol.

So, it seems like it took me about 9 months to get into some kind of productive schedule that actually works.  It’s hard, when you have a hubby that works over 60 hours a week, is in college, and has a work cell phone that rings constantly.  (and he HAS to answer it).  BUT…it’s even harder for those single mommies out there, and they are my new heroes, seriously!!!

Anyhow, all is well here in Iowa, except for its still cold, still snowing, still windy, and that makes me depressed – especially when I go into Target and see all the spring lines and bathing suits out.  Just knowing that in other parts of the country, its warm, sunny, and swimming weather makes me jealous and all the more anxious for summer.

So….can you believe that Isabela will be ONE in 2 months and 12 days???  I really can’t!

what a wonderful year it has been!
