1 already?!?!


Happy Birthday to my sweet, Bobby!

I can't believe a year has gone by since my last baby was born! He was our surprise baby, and I'm so happy to have him! He completed our family and has continued to teach me new things everyday. Here are a few things I love about my sweet boy the most!

*He loves to cuddle!
*His smile is seriously the BEST smile we've ever seen!
*His eyes, they are seriously gorgeous and you can tell exactly how he is feeling
*The way when he wants to crawl fast, he tucks his head and looks at the ground and takes off...the kid is made to be a racer! lol
*His laugh...his daddy is the only one who can get that boy cackling!
*Every time I go to look for him, he either has a car in his hand or he's playing with the dogs (or dog toys)!
*His hair! He is getting blonder by the day...crazy, I know! The last few weeks after his bath his hair starts getting curls in it! I have curly hair and wanted so badly one of my babies to get it, and I think he did!

There are so many things I love about this little boy! He really has changed me over the last year and forced me to slow down. I usually go a million miles a minute, but with 3 kiddos under the age of 4, it's impossible to go that fast! And guess what?? I don't even miss it for a second! I love being a Mama and I'm so blessed to spend 24hrs a day with them!

I love you Bobby-saurus! I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for your life!

My Italian Stallion


Hello all! I keep saying I'm going to get better on posting, and then I let like 2 weeks go by...eeek! I really am working on it, for real :)

My hubs and I do try and get each other a little something for Valentine's Day, and to kick it off he bought me a cookbook called, "The Pioneer Woman Cooks." She is the awesome lady who lives on a ranch with her 4 kids and her husband known as "Marlboro Man." She was a city girl who went country when meeting her cowboy. She has saved my life when it comes to cooking a roast...as task that I hadn't been able to do well in almost 7 years of marriage. I love reading her blog because she's so honest and down to earth, but most of all because she is madly in love with her Marlboro Man and speaks often of him. My husband and I were looking at her cookbook last night, and I said that I should have a nickname for him on my blog. We laughed over some silly ideas and then I told him I have the perfect name for him...Italian Stallion! I know you're thinking, "wow, that's real original!" Here's how I came up with it and why it fits him perfectly.

First off, he is an Italian and I love that about him! He's strong, loud, passionate, opinionated, loves a good meal, touchy feely, and when he loves, he loves you with every ounce and soul of him! When I think of stallion, I think of the most beautiful, masculine, strong horse. We all know dolphins are my first love when it comes to animals, but if I had to choose my second favorite it would be a horse. I love the way they move and I love how sweet and loyal they are. That's my husband, I love watching him walk across a room and I love watching how he is ALWAYS the life of the party. He can control a crazy situation in one second! He amazes me with his physical strength and how much of it he has! He's played hockey since he was 5, and his legs are the best thing ever!! They are the strongest legs I've ever seen in my life! He will forever and always be my Italian Stallion whom I love and I have the privilege to call mine!
