Happy 2nd Birthday Noah !!!

Projects

This past weekend I was sick but needed to get out some craftiness in me so I had a couple of projects I have been waiting to do.....It was my first attempt at making a pillow.....with a gluegun....and lets just say...who needs a sewing machine when a gluegun is just as good other than the burn marks left on my fingers. Just battle wounds, but so much fun. I am about to re do our bathroom and bedroom so stay tuned for before and after pics !!!!

Inspirations

I have been searching for a while for something to do with my blah khaki walls in the guest room, and I have found it.....Painted walls.....this should thrill my husband when I tell him my new project. I love these walls !!!

Playroom finally done

We are finally done with Noah's Playroom and it turned out just the way I wanted, although the color green is not the grass color I was going for I am pleased with how it turned out. He has a fun reading area and he loves his chalkboard wall. The next project will be our bathroom and the master bedroom.

Im going to start blogging again I promise Its just been a while since I have had the time to dedicate to sitting down and writing about our life and my many projects I have in my head right now.

The hunts are doing great and Noah is growing into a little boy quickly before our eyes. I wish I could hold back the time to embrace every hug and sweet kiss because I know before to long they will be few and far between.....

First for everything

When you have a baby and they start growing up you begin to celebrate the firsts for everything....first words, first steps, first real food....we get excited and celebrate each and every first....but this week we did not celebrate this first......First Hospital overnight, first surgery and first IV.....

Monday began with a trip to the Dr's office for a fever and an infected bug bite and ended with being admitted to the hospital for surgery. Nothing hurts a mothers heart like hearing your little one has to have surgery. As we walked through the halls of the Childrens Hospital we passed several hospital wings full of children sick....families stressed and moms and dads dealing with there own firsts.....

I realized at that moment that our children really are in God's hands...there was not a thing I could do to protect him...keep him healthy or kiss away his bobo...It was up to God to take care of him and trust that he will be ok. So after it was all said and done.....I have been able to now celebrate this first...The first time I truly trusted God with Noah...and he was faithful....as he always is ......

I'm Back

Wow...its been a super long time since I have blogged...and to be honest I have really missed it. Noah is 16 months old and in such a fun stage right now. He needs Jesus as much as the next kid and will hopefully decide to follow him at a young age...but until then we will just enjoy the awesome sinful little child of God that he is.

My baby is to big

Wow, sorry it's been so long since my last post, not that anyone even reads this but it has been a while. I feel like I haven't really written an update on what Noah is up to at his sweet age of 14 months...so here is a recap

He walks really well, everywhere

He loves his stuffed animals, Douglas and Brodie

He loves to eat, especially blueberries

He is an emotional kid ( wonder where that came from) if a kid cries, he cries, if someone looks at him weird he cries, he loves to give hugs and wants to make friends with almost anyone

He is still taking 2 naps but most days its only 1

He can say juice, mommy, dada and duck

He is such a joy and I love that little guy more than life....he has stolen my heart.
