Okay so this is a kinda new topic for me I guess.But I have major cabin fever as I call it.I think being a stay at home mom makes one restless for vacation time.I think (everytime I see a commercial on tv or a picture around the house of us on a previous vacation.)man I need outta Toledo I need a vacation.Funny part is I wasnt half this annixious for vacation while working full time at the clinic.OH well one day soon right???just agree with me.
I started saving change and birthday money(my own)and the disney dollar I had around from 2007 and our last visit and started a vacation fund weather it be for disney world or for someplace else:)anyways I just wanted to share.
God bless and I hope you have a great day.

lingering cabin fever


I would love to know that the urge to be on vacation goes away the longer I stay at home with Josiah But somehow I am doubting that is the case.My siblings well three of the nine are visiting Va beach come next week and I am a little restless and would love to join them.I am acctually getting to travel to Pa this coming weekend we are going for two days to get my husband Joss's mother and bring her back for a week or so,then we are taking her to Frankenmuth MI to bronners giant christmas store.Would this calm the cabin fever in me?I guess slightly,But I long for a beautiful beach and sunshine and cool ocean water and waves:)Maybe some parisailing(never done before but would love to)and heck I will try snorkling and jet skiing too,after all its my imagination vacation.Oh lets make it even more fun lets do all this in Hawaii.
I am so greatful for the gift my husband has given me to stay home with Josiah I almost feel angry at myself for this cabin fever.I know it is pretty unattainable for now anyways.Maybe I will save and surprise him years in the future by taking him somewhere.
Oh I got him the best 5 year anniversary gift shutterfly sent me a coupon for a FREE photobook,all I had to do was pick picture and sayings if I wanted them and make a book.I only paid shipping that was slighlty more than I would've paid for a card but oh well much cooler!and since I still had a little of my own money left from when I was working I was pretty stoked.It turned out so pretty.
OTher Topic:
I am really struggling with Bible study right now I feel GOd has laid it on my heart I need too But I lack the knowledge of where I should start and I find it incredibly hard to understand most of it.And I dislike that that makes me uneager to do it at all.any ideas/tips on bible studying???I need to really motivate myself I bought a book at family christian store about 6 months ago called "the daily God book" by Erin keeley marshall.in Hope that would help with the study problem,and it did slighlty but somedays its hard to fit in bible studying and reading a excert from abook also..Just pray I can conquer this.

I will rebuild you.YOu will again be happy-Jeremiah 31:4

My new life!


I decided to start blogging since I have a little more time these days.mostly while my baby naps.

I am loving my life I recently quit my job as a receptionist at a busy clinic,to be a stay athome mom to my beautiful 16 month old Josiah Dean.He is the highlight of my life(well him and his daddy) and soon to be one more highlight! I love the new found freedom of not being tied down to a job I wish everyone could expierence their children this way I truley fell blessed to have been given this chance!

As we speak I am holding his as he naps I havent known the feeling to well since this child was 8 weeks old!!So precious and so sweet!

He likes having me home as well,He will come grab my finger and drag me over to his stroller to tell me it is time for a walk!He is able to play with his own toys at his own house and dosent have to be up at 6 something am everymorning to start the crazy commute that was our life.Anyways

I look foward to posting many stories about my Josiah and his many accomplishments over the next years!thanks for reading hope it wasnt a bore!
