The count down begins!

At 10:13am tomorrow my little BoogieBear will be one year old!  Can you tell I'm excited?  There will be a special Mommy prayer going up tonight...

There is no greater thing on this earth than Motherhood, I am convinced.  Cheers to all of us whom strive to do it well; may we strive together always.

Pumped up Kicks and Diapers

So life continues.  This week Isaiah and I have been at home a lot by ourselves.  I'm kind of anti-heat so I wuss out and hide in the house in the a/c during the summer.  The only way to get us out is to catch us DTing from cabin fever or invite out to a place with water.  I would totally be a beach bum if I had more sunscreen and lived closer to the coast.  I actually was a beach bum for a brief moment in time as a kid.  I lived on the point on Emerald Isle.  Get home from school and grab my doggie and walk 200ft to the on ramp to the beach.

But more about hiding out indoors - - so I wake up with Isaiah and we flop downstairs and listen to music on VH1 or MTV.  I have to channel surf a bit to avoid overly sexed videos and the potty mouths that can be found on even the sweetest faces these days.  But we just love to Boogie and I can't ignore my rockin' roots.  This girl's got music on the brain 24/7.  And I think Isaiah enjoys it almost as much as me sometimes.  We like dancing to "Pumped up kicks" by Foster the People.  Not sure of the content totally as I haven't looked up lyrics yet but the music is good and there's no overt cussing.  I've noticed Isaiah has natural rhythm and that makes me smile.  I hope he gets into music somehow and can still avoid the negative aspects of such a hobby like drugs and sex.


Right now I'm listening to "I've got this friend" by The Civil Wars.  You can listen to lots of great music on Spotify.  Check it out if you haven't already. 
Cheers and more!
