Busy day!

I have been constantly busy with both kiddos both want to be held and have mommy's full attention all day! I feel like I can't sit down for 2 minutes! Whew! We'll while one was asleep I made some more hair clips!




Ava sporting one of them!


I feel so worn out and it is only 4 in the afternoon. I guess it's because both kids now wake up at 6 in the morn :(. I even tried going to sleep at 8 last night but that was WAY too early for me I woke up at 2 and couldn't fall back to sleep :/... Hopefully I will get some rest tonight!

Motherhood Oh So Fun!!

The good thing about having a child is you NEVER have the time to be bored, or nothing to talk about when it comes to our little ones!!

Kurt and I decided to take the kids outside because we FINALLY had some warm weather and I was so excited to be able to put sage in some shorts no shoes and Ava in a summer dress!! Sage was so happy because he loves the outdoors just like I did when I was little, he was running around and laughing!! We'll Sage came running towards us a little too fast and got his first boo boo :(. He broke my heart to seem his little teeny weeny knees all scrabed up and even the tops of his feet were bleeding. know now not to let him outside without pants or shoes on... here's his little boo boo pic :(





After that little accident we decided to go to Kurt's good friends house, James which by the way they (Kurt & James) are dirt bike fans BIG dirt bike fans! When we got there They had a little mini dirt bike that the 5 years old ride and Kurt put Sage on it because, he keeps on saying Sage is gonna be a dirt bike racer when he gets older! he he (Kurt's dream) He got a pic of Sage on it and he loved it!!




Any who I got a picture of Ava this morning trying to crawl and she rocks lol. The girl cracks me up she scoots backwards and let me tell you I can't even count how many times I have found her halfway under the couch! lol Another thing she does which her Grandmawmaw taught her btw, when you say "Ava rock out!" She nods her had and moves her body and puts a huge smile on her face! It makes me feel that little warm feeling in my tummy because it's amazing that I've created such a beautiful, adorable, SASSY little baby! Moms you know what I mean!! ;)

Crawl! Baby Crawl!




How could that not make you smile? :)

It's Been Awhile!!

It's been a couple of days of me not posting anything up and I apologize to my followers! My babies have been keeping me busy!! This past weekend was fun because me and Kurt got to spend some time together and the kids LOVE their daddy Kurt! hehe, We got to go to my favorite ice cream shop Marble Slab! I got my favorite flavor cream cheese, and added chocolate chips! They were Oh so YUMMY!! I took some pictures this weekend!

She is trying to take her bubba's Noonie!


Aww Bubba giving sissy hugs <3


My LOVER!


Sage loves playing with his Daddy Kurt!


My #1 Man!



Any who I have been working on my sister's V-Day swap!I never thought it would have taken me so long to do, but it has!! I first started off with thinking "Hey I'm going to make my own handmade cards with no problem!" I didn't think about the fact I have barely any money, because I depend on Kurt right now for everything (no child support :() but anyways, no money and 2 kids to take to Hobby Lobby is a pain when I have a 2 year old who wants out of the buggy and wants to grab at everything and a sassy 9 month old who wants to be held 24/7! lol... I didn't think about any of that, so I went ahead and went to Hobby Lobby and looked for all my supplies and the thing I hate is I will have something in my head of what I'm going to do but when I get to the store I loose it and then I get overwhelmed with everything in that store and then have no clue what to do! lol. I made literally about 10 trips in 2 days to the store for this V-day swap! Any who I finally figured out what I wanted to do, spent way too much money, and went home to start it... I finally got ONE card done after an hour of work and thought to myself there is no way I could make 25 more of these with 2 kids to take care of! So, after all that I just decided to take all the million things I bought back , and just went to Target to buy some already made cards! ha ha WOW Next time I will think about this when I just jump into something.... Anyways that is how my weekend went!

How was your weekend??
