Alphabitty Moments - the letter i

Sorry for posting this week's Alphabitty Moment so late. We are entering that time of year where the three jobs we do collide with a different version of each of those jobs. Vague I know, but let's just say that I've got two computers running at the same time while I listen to a video on Maple Syruping and search Pinterest on my phone in the downtime between page loads to find one last MorningMischief program for our Saturday programs in the park. It will all be worth it come mid May when my entire camping season is all laid out for me and I get to do the fun part of programming - the programs themselves, the kids will be wrapping up school & I will be putting the finishing touches on the last blog books before I take the summer off, and PapaBear will be working much closer to home. It will be worth it. I just keep telling myself that. :)

Anyway, on to the 'i' word for this week:  I is for "In The Air".  I had to dig through the files on my external harddrive to find this one because as nice as the camera phone is, it can't handle an action shot like this. Hoisting almost 30 pounds up in the air is hard enough so I can see moments like these becoming distant memories before too long. Elsa loves doing this. It doesn't matter if we let go, and actually we don't all that often. It's more of the swinging part that makes her giggle with glee - especially if we are dancing to a children's CD in the living room.

    I love this. Its one of those things we "do" as parents, but rarely "capture". You have always inspired me to "capture" the little daily moments before they slip away.

"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!

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute. Could this mean we're getting close? Could I actually go early for a change?I turned to Google and learned that labor could be hours or days away. I feel I should warn you - if you decide to Google mucus plug be prepared to see photographic proof. Why people felt the need to post pictures to Google images is beyond me!  Moving on..... Just in case I ended up being one of the lucky ones who only had hours to wait until labor started I kept up with my clean...

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...
