mommy mush

last night i am trying to get our almost 5 month old son to stop fussing and go to sleep so that I can go to sleep, when suddenly i have one of those moments that for some reason you know you will always remember.

its just about pitch black in our room. i am snuggling wy against my chin and collarbone (such a good spot:)) and just like that he closes his eyes and falls asleep. i pray for my sweet little boy and the great man he will become. and despite the exhaustion only a parent with an infant can understand, i am just instantly filled with mushy mommy feelings- its so incredible how babies know their mommies. how wyatt knows me. he cant see me, im not making a sound, he just knows its me by smell and by feel. only mommy loves him and holds him and soothes him this way. 

only mommy. only ME. 

i love him so much. i kiss his soft sweet little wrinkled forehead. his weight feels so good on me, that i am almost sad to put him down. almost. i mean give me a break, i havent slept since february! :)

    it's the best feeling in the world. even now, when i hold my "big" boys - it's the greatest feeling in the world. for all the frustration, i wouldn't trade my crazy life for anything in this world! miss you lady, xoxo

what Jesus wants us to do

Romans 6 Dead to Sin, Alive to God   1  What shall we say then?  Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?  2  By no means! How can  we who died to sin still live in it?  3  Do you not know that all of us  who have been baptized  into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?  4  We were  buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as  Christ was raised from the dead by  the glory of the Father, we too might walk in  newness of life.   5  For  if we have been united with him in  a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.  6  We know that  our old self  was crucified with him in order that  the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.  7  For  one who has died  has been set free from sin.  8  Now  if we hav...

letting jillian kick my bum again

in a desperate attempt at finally losing my baby weight leftover from big man i met up with my old frenemy jillian michaels this morning at 6AM in my living room to do the 30 day shred workout. it worked with A and i have confidence it will work again, if i can only carve out the time for it. im hoping that getting my body back on track will inspire me to regain selfcontrol in other areas of my life like spending quiet time with God and organizing our home and trying to stick to a budget and on and on. all great "things" to aspire to, but overwhelming when i feel like i need to "fix everything" at the same time. im not one to make resolutions with the new year. i know myself much too well for that:) but i can start small and if i stick with this working out dealy- its gonna require me getting up early (because both my babies are early birds) and committing to doing it even when i dont feel like it- i CAN lose my extra 10ish pounds by W's birthday. Which was my g...
