Here she comes.....

....Miss Julia.










We entered Julia in a local baby contest last night. It was not at all what I expected. There were only 10 kids in the entire competition and all but 2 were boys.


Being the only one in her age group, Julia took home the trophy and tiara. She also was presented with a trophy for the prettiest eyes. We don't have any pictures of her on stage so you'll have to take my word for it that she was adorable bopping to the music and hamming it up for the judges. Part of the prize package is a photo shoot with a fashion photographer - the catch? - he's in Chicago. Her entry fee into the state competition is also covered. It's hard to know if we should keep pursuing a modeling career for her when she didn't have any competition last night. She's young enough to not care one way or another. She was happy with her shiny new "toys".

    I love the single picture of her super cute curls with the tiara! OH, and I love the dress too!

    I want a tiara!

    Anyway, writing to say internet=bad for me tonight. Haven't been able to get on ALL evening. Just finally did and read a BIT of one of your e-mails (yes, apple pie sounds great, are you kidding?!?) then got booted off. Now I am on, but can't get to Google or my Gmail! Grr...so wanted to write and tell you why I'm absent. Though I'd love to read your messages and write back! Hopefully soon...

"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...
