Our Little Slice of Heaven

I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures from our vacation! Now keep in mind that these are from a disposable camera since our real camera was stolen. The first picture was taken on our 5th anniversary which we celebrated while in Mexico. Aaron found the book that I'm "reading" from ones you could borrow from the resort and brought it to me. Read the title to see what a sweet husband I have... In case you have trouble reading it, the title is "The Devil in Amber." And boy, was he ever proud of himself.
















This is a picture on the grounds at our resort. It was absolutely beautiful! Aaron and I always love the food everywhere we stay, so we always pack on the pounds. We try not to give our opinion about food since we always love it. It's like asking me if something is spicy or not. I'm responsible for a couple of people's stomach ulcers due to poor advice on that matter. "Habaneros, sure you can eat them by themselves. Just wash it down with some jalapenos."











We are like fish on vacation, so most of our time was spent in these two places- in the pool or in the ocean! My fingers and toes were constantly wrinkly from being submerged. It was beautiful water and sand there, and the water was pretty calm. We met tons of really nice people (especially like the England crew- and LOVED their accents). It was a great break from all of our normal daily stresses and a reminder of how much I really love spending time with Aaron!

Meet Our Little Miracle, Paisley Kate

The post I have been waiting 2 years to write is finally here and I can't really believe it. On Saturday, I woke up at 8:30 a.m. with BAD contractions. By the 2nd one, I knew I was in "real" labor. They were SO different than the braxton-hicks. I got out of bed and decided that I'd take a bath, until water ran down both legs. The pain after that got pretty unbearable immediately and I was having contractions every 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. So, I called Aaron at work to tell him it was "the big day". He decided I was kidding until I nearly leapt through the phone to wring his neck. :) We got to the hospital an hour later and I was dilated to a 4 and having very active contractions. They quickly got me moved to an L&D room. I got my epidural ( AMAZING - we'll talk about this in its own post soon) at a 6 and then my doctor broke my water. (Apparently at home, it had just leaked a pocket of fluid). After he broke my water, labor started picking up ...

Blogging Failure

The fact that I blog less than I exercise is not a good sign.  I miss you all.  And I'm glad to be where I'm at because the problem is that my cup runneth over.  Life is crazy.  The kids are growing and becoming real people and exploring and I'm still struggling to figure out how to parent a VERY challenging 3-year-old. Dear Paisley is actually quite a joy to raise.  She is spunky and energetic and funny.  We desperately struggle to stifle our laughter as we discipline her for things that I never expected her to do or say.  She is the center of attention and loves her baby brother like there's no tomorrow.  I've never met a more opinionated and divalicious child though.  She picks every piece of clothing she wears, which toy she brings in the car, exactly what she is willing to eat, how her hair is fixed, which door she uses to get in the car, etc.  I hear you out there judging me.  I would have to until I gave birth to Whitney ...

It has been WAY too long since I’ve posted here and I’m eager to rejoin the blogging world!!!  The kids are 5 and 7 and super fun, I’m working at a medspa doing injectables and lasers full time and I’m 14 years in to marriage now.   But here’s where life has now lead me!  I have been driven to do a medical mission trip over the past few weeks and I’m very set on Haiti.  Yes, they are currently having a temper tantrum over the increased fuel prices which they definitely can’t afford, but that country needs help!!!!!   So, I’m here to tell my story of how this all goes!  I’ll need lots of prayers and support in this crazy endeavor!
