13 The Most Cool And Wacky Bedrooms Ever
Mike, digsdigs.comStarting at childhood we dream about cool bedrooms and sometimes we even get them. Here are 13 the most cool and wacky bedrooms we could find around the internet. You’ll see everything from dream-like thematic kids rooms to great romanti…
I feel like the person living in this bedroom might develop strange ocd tendencies.
I love Spring. It’s such an exciting time of year. Everything changes.
My baby girl is 9 months old, soon to be 10! She crawls, she has 2 teeth, she can copy my faces, she eats real food, she can clap, and point, and laugh, and cry really loud. She likes some things, but doesn’t like others. It’s mind blowing.
Here are some lovely little pictures of my sweet “munch” as we like to call her. 
Easter 2012
It’s short, but this is the first time I saw you crawl. Yesterday at after school play practice, on stage no less! The girls gave you a round of applause!

That I want to name my second child Raven if she is a girl?
P.S. My daughters name is Phoenix.
P.P.S No I’m not pregnant.
It’s amazing what few hours of free time can do for you! My husband and I went on a hike yesterday (sans baby). It’s been awhile!
When I was pregnant we used to talk about how important it would be to make time for us. We talked about how we would go on dates at least once a month, plan personal alone time….it’s clear we really had no idea the effects of babies on personal lives.
After yesterday I was reminded of how important it really is to take time to reconnect with Andrew. Even if it is for only a few hours. And, as spontaneous as I would love to think I am, we really do need to put date nights on the calendar! Otherwise Friday night rolls around and the couch is not only calling my name, it’s gravitational pull is so strong that no amount of chocolates, wine, or romance could break through.
Planning in general is important. There are so many things we need to get done on our house and in our personal lives that I thought it would be a good idea to sit down with the calendar and start mapping some of these things out. So, today Andrew and I planned out all of the work that needs to be done on the house, booked 4 trips we would like to take, and set a “move by” date for our big move out of town. I feel like we might actually get to do the things we want to this year! It’s exciting!
So, here’s to date nights, camping trips, home improvement, and moving on up!
Nothing makes your day better than a laughing baby :) Enjoy.
This morning as I was driving down the highway to work at 65 miles per hour my transmission decided it was through. Our 6 year relationship that spanned over 200,000 miles came to an abrupt end with a giant thud, followed by grinding, panic, and useless stick shift. Needless to say I was extremely broken hearted.
I’m just going to come out and say it….WHAT A SHITTY VALENTINES DAY GIFT!!!! WHY!?!?!?
This morning and today I’ve learned a few things.
1. Thank GOD for my Family. I called nearly every member of my family this morning freaking out. I’m lucky to have these wonderful people in my life. I AM BLESSED.
2. The people I work with are amazing! I’m lucky to have a job and work with the people I do! Mr. Sundberg to the rescue in his big truck that hauled my baby to day care and me to work! Not to mention he brought along our school officer who called the tow truck company and took care of all the details!!
3. Where would I be without the love of my friends! One of my good friends has offered to lend me her car for the week so I can get things straightened out in terms of transportation!
I still have to ask, was it completely necessary for me to lose the tranmission in my car in order for me to see how truely lucky I am to be surrounded by such caring and compassionate people?
I beg you, please learn from my experience. Take a moment today, even if you hate Valentines Day, to do something a little extra for those you care about.
And if you know a good mechanic give me a call.
