instafriday on saturday~

I am linking up with jeannette for the first time on InstaFriday! Yes, it's Saturday,

but you know.....

I am still learning more and more with my

i phone, but I LOVE it!

So, here is what's been going on on my phone.

 Mother's Day. I got to spend a day shopping in the city with Beka

and while your shopping, you need to stop and have frozen

yogurt at PeachWave. So yummy!

Road construction all week on the road that takes

me from home to work! Waiting for a pilot car, uuuhhhgg!

The weather was fabulous the first part of the week

we decided to have supper on the patio. Eventhough

it was just Subway, it was very nice to be outside!

This was the last week of school for Beka

Beka's grade on one of her last tests in Intro to Chem!

We are so proud of her, she has done really well

her Freshman year!

I ordered some new fabric from

fabric.com

new pillow ideas

Have a GREAT weekend!

mother's day~

I have been a mom for

14 years. Believe me, it's been quite a journey,if

you are a mom yourself you know.

That first moment that they place that little

life in your arms and you look down

at that tiny little person, it all begins.

 Life as a Mom.

I remember the day I became a Mom

like it was yesterday; Sunday August 24, 1997.

I woke up at 3:00a.m. and knew that something

was going on! I quickly woke Rick and said

I think it's time. Right away, like first timers, we

call the hospital in a frantic! They calmly said, "how many minutes

are they?" Well, of course,

it wasn't time and were told to relax and keep them

posted.  I went and layed on the couch and Rick

goes back to bed....WHAT? I thought...we are having a baby

and you are going back to bed!

I saw the sunrise that day, it was beautiful.

When things were progressing, my sweet husband

says to me, "it's a beautiful day to have a baby".

We made it to the hospital, almost too late! It's a good thing

we were only 4 minutes from the hospital, because that's

what the contractions were apart!

At 2:53p.m. we were blessed with our sweet baby girl

all 7lbs 2 oz and 19 1/2"long. She was perfect!

Motherhood has been quite a journey, I am not
kidding when I say that it hasn't
been all peaches and cream. It is certainly
a challenge, but we have this
wonderful sweet girl.

She is growing up so fast and has
become a wonderful young woman.  We are so proud
of her and I am proud to be her Mom.

I hope that you had a wonderful

Mother's Day!

what's been happening~

So, I haven't been around alot lately

it's been busy around here.

I am finally with the times....I have

retired my old cell phone; which was an

awesome flip phone, for an iphone 4s!

Let me tell you, I am in love....

I love this phone so much, where has

it been all my life?? :)

Miss Bailey dog turned 1 on the 5th!

I can't believe how much she

has grown. She is still

such a pup!

 we had pupcakes and ice cream; okay

well "WE" didn't she did....:)

Bailey love the pupcakes!! 

Our hot water heater decided

to quit on us last

Saturday! Yes, why do most

appliances, air conditioners, and furnaces

decide to die on the weekend?

We got it replaced and were

back in business in few days!

I decided on a whim

to repaint the mudroom!

I know...crazy me...you haven't

even gotten to see pictures of it

all finished yet.  Well, it's not completely finished

but I had to change the color. :)

it's called

quiet moments

I really like it and I hope to work on my

gallery wall and then I can share it! :)

So that's what's been going on with me...

how about you? :)

Take care!

Jodi
