So, I am currently babysitting at a friends home. Yesterday, while gathering my two girls belongings to head home for the day, we can't find my oldest daughters "blankie" anywhere. She has had this since birth. It goes everywhere we go. She sleeps with it, eats with it, it is pretty much always with her. I get my littlest ready to go, and then help my oldest start searching. The search goes on for probably 10-15 minutes. We look upstairs, downstairs, around toys, under toys, in toys..it is no where to be found. By this point, I'm getting angry. I had places to be and things to do and could not spend another second searching when.....my boss says, "are you looking for her blanket?" I said that I was...she replies, "It was in Lily's diaper bag." I had put it in there while packing everything up, as not to forget this precious blanket, and had forgotten. All that anger, and it was my fault..what is wrong with me?
After this terribly embarrassing moment, I needed to head to Payless to exchange some shoes for my baby girl. We get there, set the shoes on the counter to go find some new ones. 3 pairs of shoes later and two sets of socks, we were finally ready to go. I tell the cashier the receipt is in the shoe box. She opens the lid and pulls a receipt out, and says, "well, this is for McDonalds" I felt like a complete idiot. Who does that? Who sticks the wrong, way wrong, receipt in the box? Wow. What a day! I am losing it, and I definetely do NOT want to live like this for 100 more years..lol!
I am a Christian, a wife, and a mommy. These three things are what make my life what it is. My faith keeps me going through the hard and trying times. My husband is who I lean on for strength and comfort. And my children are the ones who can turn a horrible day into the best day ever. I'll share moments of my life that are funny, happy, and maybe even sad. I love hearing others stories, and this allows me to share mine! I want to live like this...for 100 more years!

Getting to know me...
This is my 1st blog EVER! So here are a few things to help you get to know me. I just celebrated my 26th birthday one week ago! I am married to my best friend, and we will be celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary in a little over a month. I have two little girls, who are my absolute world. One is 4, and the other is 10 months. These little girls make my life filled with joy, and at times stress. I love watching them learn to do things for the first time. How proud they are of themselves, or mad that they didn't get it right on the first attempt.
They both are quite stubborn, unfortunetely a trait they inherited from both mommy and daddy. They do not give up very easily. Our 10 month old is trying very very hard to walk. She has ended up by our television and dvd player numerous times. We tell her, "no" and move her to a different location. Apparently, she has watched us shake our heads no at her so many times, that she now is mimiking that as well. She spent most of yesterday randomly shaking her head "no" and then laughing about it!
Both our girls have quite a personality. They hear the slightest sound of music and they both start dancing away! Our oldest acts a lot like mommy, and gets a tad lippy from time to time, but is also like daddy..her facial expressions and love of video games..most DEFINETELY come from him! Baby girl looks very much like mommy, but her personality is like mommy and daddy. They are very good mixtures of us, which keeps our life very fun, and very interesting. You never know what you are going to get with these two. They are precious girls, who I am blessed to have call me "mommy." It makes my day, makes me smile, and makes me want to live like this...for 100 more years!
