Meeting Addison Jane

Last week something happened that I have been waiting, hoping and praying for, for a very long time! My dear friend Audra had her first baby girl, Addison Jane, and I got to meet her and hold her for the first time!!!! I was BEYOND excited!!!!

I can't come up with words to adequately describe what it was like to hold her for the first time! She is such a little cutie, and she was so light! and so tiny! She dressed in a special festive outfit for our first girls lunch and my birthday lunch! This might be my favorite new picture :)

Or maybe this is! A self portrait with the three of us!!!!! So exciting!! And yes, I have mad Auntie Skillz, I can hold a baby and take a picture at the same time. 4 years of practice with Snugglemuffin :)

After lunch we went to the living room and snuggled and sweet little Addie Girl just slept and slept in my arms.

Cub Cubs Wasn't too happy about his snuggle buddy snuggling someone else!

You just can't take enough pictures of babies sleeping. They are so precious!

Sleeping Beauty.

It cracked me up how Addie liked sleeping with her arms up. Doesn't she look like a doll? I kept staring at her, she was just so perfect that she almost didn't look real!

And then, right before I left, she was thinking about waking up and grabbed onto my finger. She was holding my hand! erm, well finger. It was so sweet, I just about cried! Sweet little Addie Jane! I am so excited you are finally here! I can't wait to get to know her and her personality and watch this precious little girl grow!

January Recap

Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window. BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it. I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea

It's me, Charity
