Don't Be A Clown! Put The Cigarettes Down!

And that's just what he did!!


I am now the over joyed wife to a NON smoker!

I couldn't be more proud! Matt has been smoking since he was 12 or 13 years old!! Just a few short weeks ago he made the commitment to quit and went to the Doctor to start taking Chantix! It has worked wonderfully! He has thankfully had no side effects or problems while taking it! He is rounding out his first month and is on week two of not one, stinky, chemical filled, bad breath making, cigarette!

He says he is glad that Colby will never remember that Daddy smoked! I am just glad he quit! Now if we could work on his eating habits...

One step at a time!!

Two thumbs up for MckLinky!

I am pretty new to blogging. and I have no following! Which is fine I do this for me and my own entertainment! =) So I won't be putting up a MckLinky! But it could come in handy some day down the road! and who knows someone that stumbles by here might need it!!

So I introduce you to MckLinky!! It is an awesome new "linky" service! MckMama along with Brent Riggs invented this neat new tool! If you would like to see it in action head over to MckMamas blog on some beautiful Monday and check out all the Not Me! Monday posts! All wonderfully listed on the new MckLinky!!

Link on everyone!!

Happy Half Birthday!!


I can't believe that today my sweet baby boy is 6 months old!! At times it feels like just yesterday he so heavily blessed my life yet I can't imagine a day without him! He brings me unmeasurable amounts of joy and smiles! He amazes me each and every day! Waking me with the most beautiful smiles and coos! Filling my days with laughter and kisses! And winding down my nights with grins and cuddles. He is such a blessing to my entire family and I am so very thankful for him and all he has brought to my life!

He is changing and growing! He can now smile, roll all over, laugh, sit up all by himself, blow raspberries, give kisses, yell, spin himself in circles on his belly, scoot backwards, put everything in his mouth, and melt my heart!

I love watching his personality shine through! He is very happy and easy going! But he has no problem letting you know when he's ticked! He loves to sit on the floor and play! He really enjoys music, books, elmo, swimming, and bath time!

I am doing all I can to enjoy every moment!

















and I mean every stinkin one!

Lions,Tigers , and Bears! Oh My!

Colby took his first trip to the zoo!!

We had a great time! The weather turned out to be beautiful, all of our kids were well behaved (daycare kids, friends kids) and it wasn't over crowded!

I tried to get him to look at the gorillas but, he was only interested in what the other kids were doing! I tried to get him to see the elephants and he was sleeping! That's ok though! It was only his first trip to the zoo! There will be many more trips! I can't wait to take him back when he is a little older!

I also hope he waits until he's older to do this again...


Oh man! I don't know what to do with him!


He is most definitely a keeper though!!

Park!

This past week we have made a few trips down the street to the park! Colby thinks it's great fun!! He just loves watching other kids and checking things out! He has also become a fan of the park swings!! =)






I just can't get enough of this beautiful blessing! Everyday he brings more and more joy into my life! I am so lucky to be his Mom!
