Thursday Thirteen

13 recent happening in the Pauly household:

1. Julia can get into a sitting position by herself.
2. Her 6th tooth popped through this morning.
3. Sam ate his first strawberry from his garden.
4. He is now consistently telling us when he needs to sit on the potty. On vacation of all places he started staying dry all day.
5. and it only got better -
He did his first #2 on the potty in Denver. Today he's told me three times that he needed to go. Maybe that's my cue to lay off the fruit for a bit.
6.
Our Christmas tree is FINALLY out of our front yard. (How pathetic is that?)
7.
Our luggage arrived from Denver so....
8.
Let the laundry begin (it wasn't lost - just riding home in the van with Brian's parents)
9.
Julia had her first taste of Brewer's Yeast and cherries (yes, I know I'm not suppose to do more than one thing every four days, but sometimes I get too impatient)
10.
Julia is starting to put her butt up in the air and rocking back and forth - she's sooo close to crawling!
11.
We tried out (with success) our new Aroma Turbo Oven that we plan to use instead of the microwave.
12.
I, by chance, figured out the video function on my digital camera - at least how to get 18 second video clips.
13.
I scored big time at my Aunt's Garage sale. (117 Name brand dresses, outfits, Columbia snowsuit, sweaters, and shirts combined to be worth over $3000 new)

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able. Please be sure I can get in touch with you through your blog and/or an email address. Thank you for covering my dear friend and her family with prayers!

Shabby Apple Giveaway!

Spring is in the air and that means it's time to start thinking about changing over our closets from Winter to Spring. I don't know about you, but that also means it's time to look for a few new pieces to bring new life to what I wear year after year. Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d...

My Birthday Wish

Today is my 33rd birthday. So far I've celebrated by cleaning the kitchen, vacuuming, and washing clothes. My birthday happened to fall on a Monday - the day we set a few hours aside for me to do some of the cleaning that I just don't have time for during the work week. I love it. I get that immediate sense of accomplishment. I see results. I finished a task. Oh how that makes my heart happy!!!!! In my line of work it can be months before I can check a project off my list. All the while it nags at me and weighing me down like a ton of bricks that projects are waiting for me. Don't get me wrong, I love love love my job, but I also love that instant gratification that comes with checking something off my list. So when Mondays roll around I am happy to pick up my dust cloth or a basket of laundry....even on my birthday. I don't have any great birthday reflections for today....maybe another day. Instead I want to share my birthday wish with you dear readers. What I wan...
