Okdiokie...so I have neglected....Okay! Completed ignore and forgot about my blogging. I know. Here I was so good and now, I lost ya..*sniff* But I am really sorry, and I have a new post for you right now! And it goes perfectly with the Halloween theme here! :D
My brother is so going to kill me. One more I have had an evening doing nothing and low and behold my brother was doing nothing as well! With Strawberry content to watch the magically spinny thing from the ceiling called a fan, I had my way with my little brother. With my fingers ready his face was my pallete! Bwahahaha!
Here are the pictures and sorry bro!

Don't trust nature!



(Sorry none of my pictures this time.)
Ahh! Another month! And time has quickly gone from the Hot summer days of the midwest, to cool foggy mornings with the sun rising putting the Autumn leaves all in a glow.
I love those long days where you take a long drive through the back roads of no where with nothing but open fields in front of you and hills filled with layers of trees flowing in oranges, yellow, reds and purples.
With Strawberry in the back softly cooing to herself, (she was probably cooing to her new skill of grasping her tiny little hands. Too cute!) this moment could not have been more perfect. I was driving with my windows partly down, so I could hear the soft sounds of nature along with my daughter who was amusing herself. The moment began so beautifully and even got better like a orchstra hitting the climax of a some heart throbbing and breathtaking song. (The moments to follow would be VERY breath taking.) Suddenly a soft curtain of leaves cascaded before me in a vail of a gorgeous glow of purple and yellow and bright red leaves. I was in aw at the perfect moment. The leaves blew around the car as it hummed lowly as I slowed down to take in the view of God's hand in nature. The car was passing under a pretty tree that helped in the beautiful flow of leavesIt would have been more perfect if Strawberry or my hubby was next to me to enjoy it. A perfect moment in fall! ....ANd just like that odd tuba that blew at the wrong time and was very out a place came the big puff of bright leaves! It came too fast! Like someone has released the heavy curtain from a stage, a curtain of red leaves suddenly fell across my window shield covering my entire view. I come to a screeching halt with a totally naked tree behind me that I had once been driving under admiring its beauty. Out of breath and heart throbbing, I swear that stupid tree had it all planned! And to add to the moment, when the car came to a halt Strawberry let out a squealing giggle, like she had some part of this grand plan to scary mommy! One of these days I am going to find out about some conspiracy against me.
Anywhoalls, just wanted to share my little adventure on back country roads. Never trust nature I had to post at least one of my pictures of my baby girl. :)

Random Day Random Photos





I really like picture. Especillay odd ones that people don't normally see.
Usually just of odd things, like maybe spilt nails, maybe an accidental close up picture of pretty green eyes, or maybe how the glass left out on the front porch and the sun hit them just right so light bubble dance across the porch floor. *sigh* nope don't have a picture like that, but you can still wish ya did. Here are some extra photos oa pretty things.

The messiness


No sure how the world keeps turning. I mean it was just one of those days. The world should have stopped, just because I felt stressed and important enough for the world to pause....The bills were piling up, the laundry reaching the sky, dishes were over flowing. Baby needed a bath...really needed a bath and the fridge had nothing in it...and too top it off I was running on three hours of sleep!

...I can hear the world's smallest violin playing for my little pity over here....


So what is it I do? You would think I might just buck it up and deal or make a plan to fix my problems...Nope. I ignore my pile of laundry, dishes, bills and pack up baby and live in the car until that reaches its point of looking like a meanie version of the apartment!


And when your hubby asked,"Um...hey honey...I love ya....I really do love....And I understand you are busy....But do you know if you washed any of my socks this week?" pause to look in the fridge. "And we go grocery shooping today too?"


Yeah...By then my head is hung and it time. Hey, our lawn looked better then the inside.

So time to buck up and deal. Time to make a plan, set goal! STOP AVOIDING THE MESS!!!...

*hangs head* Yeah, I really miss those cleaning fairies when I lived with Momi.


Until next time.

Old time Photos





Did you ever like old time photos? Throwing on old clothes or just taking your everyday pictures and making them into black and white photos or sepia tone?
My siblings, my older sister and younger brother, (yes, I am the middle child) and poor dears they are, had to endure about 3 days of torture of me running through the bedrooms, diving into the closets to try and come up with close-enough-time-period-clothing to take pictures of them. I wasn't sure what time period, but as it turned out, they were from the 1920's or around that time.
My poor sister, had the worst. First, I tackled her and begged and pleaded, for her to allow me to take her pictures. Then I had to "bribe" her a bit so I could chose and raid her closet. In the end we go wonderful photos and here are just a few.
*lookes at her husband* I think I need new photos of you too
How I get the pictures to look like this is the free website pixlr.com is a free photoshop that allows to do pretty much anything to your photos. I found it by accident, but since then I am addicted to it.
*looks at her sister and borther-in-laws*....Hum.....hum......*evil grin*......
Anywhoalls. Just thought I would share some photos and my what I have been doing of late.
Until next time

Baby take the Apartment!!!

Its the starting of a new month and here we are once more in our tiny apartment and I am wondering how far from a box I am living. I don;t mean to complain, but hey when your workout every morning on a big bath towel in the middle of the tiny kitchen floor you begin to wonder.
As we move around my small home, I realize, Hey! I do have room. Hubby and I had plenty of room. Not lots of space, but enough space to live comfortably for two.

....And there is our problem....two...We are no longer two. I would say three, but come on! She is only barely half! Of tiny 12 pound baby she sure does take up every space we have. From the bassinet that has replaced my bedside table to the carseat sitting on my couch. But all the toys are in the toy stump!...But all her blankets are scattered across the apartment, because she likes to spiddle and we need those things at hand at any moment!

Baby wash clothes have become bathroom decor along with winnie-the-pooh clock. Oh! and we can forget that spot on the bed. You see right in the picture of my partially made bed there is a soft blanket with a nootisy and rattle. Yeah...that spot right smack dab in the middle of the bed.
Some how I think the space perfect for two has become the perfect for extra baby storgae, becaue this is only what is at our home. This does not address the stuff our little Strawberry has stored at both Grandma's houses, and in the car. I don't even get to keep a purse anymore...My baby has "graciously" given a pocket of her diaper bag for my wallet and cell phone.

Yep. Our Strawberry has taken pretty much everything for us, including our hearts...and my brain...But its so well worth it.

Anywhoalls.
