  • So, I woke up this morning to learn that our brown lab had chewed a pair of Emmy's Gymboree shoes (never worn), her little ponies hair off & one of her favorite puzzles up.  Gotta love puppies, huh!  Not so much right now!  Bry ended up putting Harley outside at 2:30 this morning due to running down the hall between our room & Emmy's room all night long! 


    So why do we have this puppy?  Great question!  We got Harley for our German Sheperd back on Thanksgiving weekend.  They absolutely loved each other & we know that Mercedes would love a play-mate...but the problem is that Mercedes died on December 12th (causes unknown).  So now we have had our garage destroyed, our backyard destroyed, our lawn furntiture chewed up, Emmy's toys (outside) chewed up, his bed (pulled all of the stuffing out of it - brand new needless to say) & now Emmy's stuff chewed up inside. 

    I felt so guilty keeping this puppy outside because it has been so cold & we just don't give it the attention it deserves...so great idea - let's try to make him a house dog...UGH!  From the moment we let this little puppy in the house, it is non-stop chaos!  Max screams the whole time cause he wants to play with Harley.  Emmy screams the whole time cause she is trying to get away from Harley.  And Bry & I scream the whole time cause you can't hear anything else!


    Our solution is???  We are going to try a dog crate...put Harley in when we go somewhere, when we take naps/go to bed.  Let's see if this solves our problem!  I think we are just not meant to have pets or something.  This causes more stress on me than I'd like to admit!  hohum....

  • I have gotten inspired reading others blogs & have decided to finally take the "plunge" & do one myself...okay, so I have a kid's website, facebook, myspace...hmmm - technology sure has advanced over the ages...which makes me feel quite old!

    Right now I am sitting here thinking about my life & all that I have been blessed with over the years.  I think about my husband & kiddos.  WOW!  How they have changed my life! 

    Bry came home from work early today & I was so giddy about having him home...not that we had any exciting plans or anything - just that he was home early & that I could enjoy him longer today!  Even with the dealing with the kids & dinner & cleaning up...just having him around makes me feel content!  What a guy!  I am sure he would love knowing that I am bragging on him ;)

    And the kids, wow...such little people!  Max has such a personality.  He is ALL boy!  Never wants to sit still - crawling is his thing (or should I say cruising)!  He wants everything that he shouldn't have & laughs about everything!  Max LOVES to be tickled & rough housed with.  Bry was throwing a cloth ball at him tonight & he was laughing constantly, (as I was saying "honey, not so hard - you are going to hurt him..."  I can not believe that my little guy is turning 1.  It makes me so sad to think that he is growing out of the "baby" stage - yet so excited to see him reach all these amazing milestones! 

    Emmy, she is my little diva with the kindest, sweetest spirit!  Man I love her!  The things that she comes up with amazes me!  Lately it has been "Mommy, I sorry - I can't help it!"  or "I too sleepy tired to pick up my toys"...ugh!  Gotta laugh inside though!  She has also decided that she is tired of going to preschool - wow - she has a long way to go!  The other day she was asking me where Jesus is & I told her that He lives in our heart.  You mean he lives in my belly?  No Emmy, He is all around was watching us, helping us, etc...Does Jesus live in my boobies?  No Emmy (how do you respond to that?)  She finally settled on that He was right beside her.  Oh the age of innocence!

    Lately, I have been pondering life & where we are headed.  I miss being in the ministry, "feeling like I am changing the world" - yet, I am always brought back to something somebody very wise taught me as I nannied for them - a mom's place is in the home with their children...training them up to be men & women of God.  I have tried to keep that in the forefront of my brain this last week as I have longed to be "doing" more!  Yet, my main calling in life right now is to be training my children up in the ways of the Lord & praying for & loving my husband! 

    Okay, well I guess that is it for my first post!  Gives you a glimpse of my life a little.
