Wow, it's been three weeks since I posted anything.  Well, I've been very busy, so that's why this poor blog hasn't had any love lately.

Here's what's up with our family:

John--Still working four days a week at McGuire, then coming home and mowing and finishing up projects around our house.  His Aunt and Uncle from TN are in this weekend and so we have been spending time with them.

Me--Homeschooling five days a week plus making Henry feel wanted and loved plus keeping Miss B busy leave me ZERO time for myself.  That's part of why I haven't been bl

This will be short and probably not even in complete sentences, but I figured I would let you in on the craziness around here.

~Had gum grafting on Tuesday.  For the third time.  No, it's not any more fun now than it was the first time.  Can't chew on that side or use a straw or bite into anything or brush that part of my mouth.  Mom was here, and that was good, because all I wanted to do was sleep.  Feeling much better now.

~Cleaning out the study.  Like, totally out, nothing left in it.  John will be painting Friday and Saturday.&nbs

This week is World Breastfeeding Week!  Because it is, lots of parenting blogs have articles about breastfeeding, but this blog's post made me smile.

If you head over to drmomma.org, she has a list of things that toddlers have said their mama's milk tastes like, and it made me smile.  I thought you would like to see it, too.  Just click on drmomma.org above, and it will take you to it.

Happy World Breastfeeding Week!

Henry loves McDonald's french fries.  I don't know what they put in them to make them so yummy, but I think every kid on the planet must love those things!

Today, Henry and I attended the graveside service of a man who used to attend our church.  He and his wife have always been so supportive of John and me, and we had actually just seen them about three weeks ago.  John's parents were there, too, as were a few other church members and community members. 

Henry and I were headed back to our car, and I asked him if he would like to stop at McDonald's for s

This morning, Henry climbed into one of our dining rooms chairs, dug his hand down into the diaper bag/purse, and pulled out my car keys.  He then climbed out of the chair, looked at me, and said, "Let's go!" and headed for the back door.

I was still in my pajamas (it was early this morning!)

So I asked him, "Where do you want to go?"

His response?  "I don't know."  At least, that's kinda what it sounded like, so that's what I'm going with!  lol

I told him I had to get dressed before we could go and that we had to find my missing

Vacation Bible School starts in less than two hours, and I am flat out exhausted.  All I have done today is try to get the last minute crafts, props, and papers together to start this thing off.  I am tired, and I am having a really hard time finding any excitement about this.  I actually feel physically nauseous from just feeling like I can't get it all done before tonight.  I need to be at church in an hour, and I have to fix supper and get all the stuff to the car and take care of Henry, too, and it's just too much!  AAGGHHHH!!!!!!

I went to the Dollar Tr

Well, it's new to us anyway.  Henry and I stopped by our local Habitat for Humanity ReStore to look for filing cabinets and dressers.  While I didn't find anything I just had to have or really needed, as we were leaving, I saw this.

I don't have a clue how old it is or anything (I'm planning to go a'googling after I finish this post!) but I said, "Look Henry!" and he said, "Ride!" so I let him have a look at it.  It fits him perfectly!  Plus, it's all wood except for the wh

Today is John's and my sixth anniversary.  Six!  Time has really flown by, but I wouldn't change any of it for the world.  Including the eloping part back on this day at like 9:30 in the morning!  :o)  Then, we ate breakfast at the McDonald's down the street.  They actually tore that McDonald's down and rebuilt a new one over the same spot.  It was kind of sad.  I remember sitting in there that morning with my new husband and one of our witnesses, eating my sausage biscuit, looking out the front window at all the traffic.  Time marches on ev

I read a great blog today by Lauren over at Hobo Mama that talked all about involving your children in your cooking.  (Holy crap, y'all, I just made my first link thingy--woohoo!)  And I thought to myself, I said, "Self, that is a great idea for Henry!  He loves to help stir things!  We shall make cake-mix cookies when he gets up from his nap, and we will do them together!"

Henry's new cloth diapers are here, and they are so cool!  They are pocket diapers, like what we already have, but we bought these specifically to use when we are out and about.  They are easier to get on him--and faster, too--and that's a good thing when you can't always choose where you have to change your baby.

I feel almost guilty, though, because they are so easy to use that I don't really feel like I'm cloth diapering.  Which I totally am, because they're still cloth.  It's just they are so easy to use.  I don't know why I always feel like I have
