The Reason

I have two confessions today.

#1 The reason I cloth diaper is because they are so cute.

#2 The reason I had kids is so that I would never be alone. The reason I had so many is so that THEY would never be alone.

Kids are good. Xander is getting big as you can see in the photo. Cloth diapering is going well, we are using them 90% of the time. And by we, I mean me. Breastfeeding is going great too. Before long he will be able to eat rice cereal. At about 5-6 months or so. This time I am making my own. And the other day at Target I bought re-usable grocery bags too. Mark asked me what it was like to be so crunchy. I laughed. Though Emma did tell her father he was not doing any help to our environment by getting a plastic bag at the store yesterday. Maybe I am a bit more green than I thought....

My other baby boy will be four in about 2 weeks. FOUR?!?! Where did the time go? Of course that girl of mine will be EIGHT in March......when did I get so old?

OH, Abby, how sweet!!!

I love the diapers, although when he gets older he'll never forgive you for posting pictures of his butt for the whole world to see. LOL

My oldest son will be 4 in a few weeks (well, about 8 weeks) too. But I was just writing things in my planner, and realized that not only will I be 30 this year (ACK!!), but my daughter will be 13. How. Did. That. Happen?

Abby, he is getting so big!!! I absolutely love those diapers! What kind are they??

We cloth diapered Kiddo and I am planning the same for newbie who is coming in April. I need some newborn stuff though and haven't decided what to get. Did anything work better for you? Just curious about your experience.

Thanks for sharing pics. You have a beautiful family.

I'll Do It Better In My Next Thirty years

Today is doomsday. At 9:05 a.m on this very day thirty years ago my mother gave birth to me. I have done the "Holy crap, where did the years go?" I have done the "When did *I* get so freaking old?" I have cried and been mad and upset. I have looked at my life and realized it was NOT what I thought it would be at thirty. In both good and bad ways. I have run the gamut, so to speak and frankly now I am worn completely out. I am done. I went through getting old sucks . I spent time reminiscing about Swatch watches from back in the day. I have shed tears over my babies not being babies anymore . I tired to stop thirty from coming and realized that it was inevitable. I even got my friends to realize that we are indeed getting old. So today, as I move on in life and have to start checking a new box on forms, I still stand by my very first post on getting older. I think Tim McGraw has it right. My Next Thirty Years I think I'll take a moment, celebrate my age The en...

It Is Official...

I am now officially a participant in the NaBloPoMo . What is this you ask? It is an alternative to National Novel Writing Month, otherwise known as, NaNoWriMo . The goal of NaNoWriMo is to write a 50,000 word novel during the month of November. Since I lack focus, which some like to call adult ADD, there is no way I could do that. So, enter NaBloPoMo. Besides sounding funnier, it is a much more doable thing for me. The goal of this? Post an entry to my blog every day for the entire month of November. You heard it folks. You will be blessed with some random something from me EVERY DAY for the ENTIRE month of November. I am even on the Official List. I am, really. You can go look. Now you may be asking yourself how you got so lucky. And I can not give you the answer to that. All I can say is that you can look forward to me rambling about basically nothing for the whole month. So sit back and enjoy the ride. Now, if I could only figure out how the hell to put up my button and get it to hy...
