12 Weeks

I just cannot believe Molly B is 12 weeks old today. Molly is getting such a personality. She talks to us and smiles a lot. She is such a good baby. We have traveled quite a bit and she just goes with the flow. I'm having so much fun being a mom. I love staying home and getting to do things I love. From cooking to scrapbooking to starting a new business; I love it all. The best part of all I can do it all from my PJs with my Molly B. The rest of this month we are getting ready for Jeremy's b-day and and Valentines Party for our Small Group!!! I will post more pics later!

Much Love,
Britt

Jamaica with this bod....


I think not. My wonderful husband has just informed me that he earned a trip to Jamaica to stay at the Ritz Carlton! My first reaction was I can't leave Molly that young, I don't have enough milk saved, I am keeping baby Lauren and I don't want to be in a bathing suit. So, lots of things have to fall in place. I have to get Molly on a schedule, I have to be able to store more breast milk, and I have to loose about 20 lbs. I really want to go and have a good time but if everything doesn't fall into place I am afraid I will be stressed every minute of the vacation. So, If you are a mom and have any suggestions leaving my baby for the first time or loosing the last bit of baby weight and then some. Let me know!
Much Love

Tired Tuesday!

Ever since the holidays, Molly B has not been sleeping very well. Now, normally its not that big a deal cause Jeremy is here in will take care of her and the dogs while I get a nap, but this week Jeremy is "out of town". This is where Jeremy is

That's right the Gaylord Texan for a business meeting all week, but seriously he is only 20 minutes away. While, I am staying up all night and getting up early with the precocious pups, my husband is living it up at this resort. Good thing he pays all the bills!!!
Much Love,
Britt

I still love my dogs!

Everyone has told me that my dogs will not be near as important to me when I have a baby. Well, of course Molly is most important person in my life but I still love my dogs. So, I have felt like I neglected them some, so today I decided I would make them homemade dog treats. So, I am back in my doggies good graces. They love them. The recipe is incredibly easy so I will post it in case anyone would like to try it.

2 tablespoons of corn oil
1/2 cup of peanut butter
1 cup of water
1 cup of whole wheat flour
2 cups of flour
Preheat oven to 350. Combine oil, water, and peanut butter then add flour gradually. Roll dough into 1/4 in sheet and then use a cookie cutter to cut them. Bake on 350 for 20 minutes. Makes 2 1/2 dozen cookies.

This year......



I want to stick to my New Years Resolutions. In order to do this I am going to post what they are, everyone of them. The reason being for this is I just have never seemed to have the will power to follow through with the resolutions I make . Now, that Molly is here it is more important to me that I follow through with decisions I make no matter how small or big they might be. So here we go:
Read my Bible everyday
Pray more
Praise my husband more
Read everyday to Molly
Get Molly on a schedule
Exercise everyday
Cook more new recipes
Walk the dogs everyday
Get my teaching certificate
Start a new business (more to come on that one)!
Get back to my college size!!!
Organize my house
Send Cards on time
Be more encouraging to others
Be Joyful
Be content
With all those being said, 2009 was an amazing year. We brought are wonderful baby girl into the world. Joined a wonderful church and a great small group. New friendships have been found and old ones have been restored. Our family's are happy and for the most part healthy. Praise God for the life I have been given and pray for the wonderful life ahead.


Love and Blessings to all!
