Close to MY Heart

I am so excited! So excited to start something new.....and something that it so perfect for me right now! After thinking, and debating, and talking, and making lists, and all that fun stuff I have decided to start selling Close to My Heart scrapbooking supplies. The product is great and I am hoping to be able to make some more friends through this. I am waiting patiently for my "goody box" to get here and get started.
It took me so long to decide because I was not sure with a baby one the way if this was the right time for me, but my final decision was made because I will now have something that will make me get out of the house and be an adult once in a while! Cannot believe it took me so long to realize that I would need help with that!

So anyone that is interested or has questions let me know! I am more than willing to help or find out answers that I may not know already. Remember, you can earn yourself FREE product and a HUGE discount by booking an open house or a book party! :)

Welcome back to me!

I am welcoming myself back. Back to the living and normal peoples way of life. After what might have been one of the worst weeks for me I am finally feeling human again. Between a HORRIBLE case of the flu and thinking I am going crazy I am rested and relaxed and doing good again. Today is a work day at school and I am getting so much accomplished! That is such a good feeling.....one that I needed!

Things with little Baren are going great! I went to the doctor on Monday and had another ultrasound. It was scheduled because he was not working with us and the lady was not able to see his complete spine until then. Everything looked great and he is growing like he is suppose too. He is moving around like crazy, but it is a such a great feeling! :) He is grabbing his toes in the picture, I am still so amazed! The doctor and I talked about an induction date so that my schedule with school would be easier to work with. I was given May 6th as the date, but I think I will still have one HUGE test with my kids left so I still have to wait and see. Not that I want it over yet, but I love the idea of knowing what and when!

I think I have gotten a creative spot going again and I am going to jump on it! I have plans to scrap all day Sunday and then it is the season 3 premier of Big Love on HBO. My friend Jennifer is going to come over and watch it with me, because I got her complete addicted to it as well. A huge pan of tater tot casserole and Big Love, what else could a girl want?

And of course I have to add some pictures of my babies! They are not the easiest subject to work with on picture taking but this is what I got today. I wish you could see their new collars better. Josh's brother brought one for each of them....a Denver Broncos one and a Seattle Seahawks one. They are too cute!

And my new best friend! I am loving me some Tums with all the heart burn I have been having lately! Oh the joys! :)

Sometimes I need a little reminder that I am actually thankful for some things, and today is one of those days....its one of those weeks! So I am making this when I need to stop and think, and remember....

• I have a WONDERFUL family that loves me uncontrollably and nonstop.
• I have a healthy, fabulous little boy growing inside of me that I cannot wait to meet and love on!
• I have a terrific job with amazing students.
• I have a supporting principal that believes in me and my abilities.
• I have to of the best dogs in the world that are excited to see me EVERYTIME I go home.
• I have a bed to sleep in and food to eat daily.
• I have a good head on my shoulders and a strong heart.
• I have great songs on my IPOD for all those late nights at school.

I know I have other things to be happy about but I just needed a few down to get me through now.....
