Let the good times roll. Wednesday, July 23, 2008. A lot of Useless Information About Me. I haven't been tagged, but I just thought this would be kinda fun and maybe someone will learn something about me that they didn't already know. 100 Things About Me. 1 I dislike most seafood.

Let the good times roll. Monday, January 12, 2009. Jan 19, 09. Tell Kelly thank you for her last letter. Everything she said was so helpful and it made me put things into perspective. Tell her to email me more often. I really enjoy her advice because she just finished doing the exact same thing that I´m doing. Oh yes.and I was wondering.What the heck is happening in Israel? How is troy and his family? I´ve been praying for them a lot lately. Ignore what she said at the beginning. It’s a surprise.

Let the good times roll. Wednesday, August 27, 2008. In the land of Bountiful. 1 Most people either HAVE money or like to pretend they do. There are a lot of nicer newer cars driving around the streets and at least the people I know don't like it if their car has a ding in the door or a scratch in the paint. I'm used to just not caring as long as it runs well. Just kidding. I really have gotten a few pedicures since I've been here, but not just for the fancy flower, though it is a perk :).and I o...I don...

Domestic Diva Domain: Bronze It On
http://domesticdivadomain.blogspot.com/2013/04/bronze-it-on.html
Wednesday, April 10, 2013. I'm so excited to be blogging.from my bed! Why is this so exciting, you may ask. My poor laptop had a battery life of basically zilch unplugged, so I've been tethered to the wall for a good 2 years with this thing. A replacement battery was going to cost almost $100, and for that price, you are on your way to a brand new laptop! So I was avoiding it and making it work, until my husband found one on Amazon for less than half that price! I'm not going to pay for skin cancer.

Domestic Diva Domain: Do I Really Have A One-Year-Old?!
http://domesticdivadomain.blogspot.com/2015/07/do-i-really-have-one-year-old.html
Friday, July 10, 2015. Do I Really Have A One-Year-Old? I feel like someone has turned a page into a new chapter in my book of being a mother. Chris and I were talking after we got home from our Kansas trip and we both agree that Ava seems to know that she is a 1 year-old. She just acts bigger! She learned how to say "cracker". It just sounds like "kkkkkkkkkkkk" at the back of her throat! She's pretty impressed with herself when she says it! She just acts like a such a big girl! She only gets nursed firs...

Domestic Diva Domain: Another Miracle in the Making
http://domesticdivadomain.blogspot.com/2015/07/another-miracle-in-making.html
Friday, July 10, 2015. Another Miracle in the Making. This post was written a few weeks ago, and I am just now publishing it.*. I don't even know how to start this post so I'm just going to start putting my thoughts down. I find it so ironic. That my post from earlier today included a part about wondering how I'm going to store all of Ava's baby things. I found out just a few hours ago that I will only have to keep them in storage for 9 months! Yes, I found out today that I am pregnant.AGAIN! Fast-forwar...

Domestic Diva Domain: June 2015

Wednesday, June 17, 2015. The Only Parenting Technique You'll Ever Need: An Introduction to Love and Logic. I feel it is my duty as a preschool teacher and a mother to share about Love and Logic. This book is a game changer. As a preschool teacher, this was the training that gave me confident control of my classroom. The kids knew the rules, they knew the responses they would get from me, and they began to repeat my motto: "Friends who make good choices get to do fun things! All was good in preschool land.

Monday, July 27, 2015. This post was written a several days ago; I am just now publishing it*. Finally we are 2 DAYS. Away from seeing little peanut! I could be as far along as just shy of 11 weeks and we still don't have a clue what little baby is up to in there! I have been experiencing lots of nausea - round the clock this time. With Ava, it was only in the evenings and I barely ate anything because I hated. With how much she is learning and what she can do. Her vocabulary is exploding! She did it at ...
