I started writing in a book. A small black book -- and no it doesn't have boys phone numbers in it that I use to date (thank goodness). It has a few words, a few sentences, just thoughts of mine that I randomly write down. I won't write everyday but when I feel the need, I have a place to write. I will write of things for that I am thankful. Things like coffee, toilet paper, Oaks smile, he belly laugh that makes me so happy I could cry, or when Cory takes out the trash without me asking. I just want something, one thing that I can go to when I feel like everything is terrible, we all know we have those days. I want something to read that I have written of things I am thankful for so that I will snap out of my fog and see how truly blessed I am.
I hope that when Oaks is older and I'm not longer on this Earth he can read my little black book(s) and say, "My Mom was amazing - she was funny, kind, thankful, graceful, and Godly."
Try it out! I got my little black book on sale at the ASU Bookstore for under $5!
Happy hhhhumpppp day, friends!

Catching Up
Hello friends, it has been a long time. I apologize for my slacking the past few months. I have said so many times lately -- I really need to blog about that but I just haven't found the time. Oaks is now on the move and keeping us very busy. I forgot what it was like to lay him in the floor and him not move. Having a mobile infant is definitely a life changer.
Oaks is 9 months old now. I can't believe it, 3/4 of a year. It doesn't even seem possible that my baby is growing so quickly. I now understand why so many people tell you to take it all in because it really does fly by. I miss my sweet baby who was so small and cuddly. Oaks will cuddle with me at night and on occasion when he is nursing or tired but he would rather be throwing toys, standing up, or crawling.
I am hoping to get back into the blogging routine. I need to be better about it, I have a lot of things to say and talk about that I haven't had the chance to blog on. I write myself Notes often in my phone about topics, silly things that happen, or random facts that I want to include on my blog. I'm back though, I'm here and I'm going to try to let all of know what is going on in my mind. Well, not all but some.
