Well, I suck. Big time.<br /><br />There has been SO much happening in my life lately. I started my new job on August 1st and I absolutely LOVE IT! Like, can't even begin to describe how much. My coworkers are amahhhhhzing and my boss is great as well! I still miss my old office and it's been about a minute since I've been in there to visit! It's hard to believe my "90 days" are almost over. But I've never been so happy about a decision before and I thank God everyday for this great opportunity. <br /><br />I know about 10000000001 people who are pregnant right now! What is the deal people?!?!?! I'd love to get down on whatever they're drinking but that'll still have to wait. I'm so happy for all my friends/family that are expecting and can't wait to snuggle those sweet babes! <br /><br />Brogan turned 3 in September and has been a pistol ever since! Oh my Lordy does this kid keep us on our toes! With my new job, I have Fridays off so it's nice to spend 3 straight days with my boy (and hubs on the weekend). But sometimes, by Sunday, this momma is READY for Monday morning!!! We decided, with Brogan's help of course, that he'd be a train conductor for Halloween and this kid is SO excited! This Saturday our zoo has what they call 'Boo at the Zoo' where you can trick or treat around the zoo. We are taking B in the morning and his daddy is even making train costumes for us to wear. Brogan doesn't know it yet but I'm stoked to see how excited he'll be!<br /><br />I am so so tired that I don't know what else to write about. Hopefully I can get better with this..but let's not hold our breath.<br /><br />Happy Fall Ya'll!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-8092999543223797482011-07-29T20:49:00.002-05:002011-07-29T21:19:58.278-05:00I'm a Beast!When my husband showed me the house that would be ours after we got married, I was extremely worried. This house was a P.O.S. Granted, it had been gutted so of course it was not as 'sexy' (can a house be sexy? I dunno.) as I had hoped. But they did a wonderful job at making this house really be SEXY! Haha! So jump forward 5 years: we now have a child and way too much stuff for this 2 bedroom/no basement or storage house. Our loft area (that I once had a vision of a cute little nook for reading/office/movie watching) has sorta turned in to a storage area. We finally got rid of this GINORMOUS desk we had and that helped open up the loft a TON! My parents gave us a cute little desk that used to be my grandma's and it is an absolutely perfect fit. However, with all the moving around of furniture to get that big a** desk out of here, the loft again turned in to a cluttered mess and it was just U.G.L.Y. (You ain't got no alibi! -- yeah, I totally just typed that.)<br /><br />Yesterday, I had enough of the clutter. I attacked this loft like a BEAST! And I dominated it...fo sho (<--I say this A. LOT. Like too much. But what can ya do?). I moved SO. MUCH. HEAVY. STUFF (ex: a couch with a hide-a-bed in it). And anyone who knows me, knows I am not a manual labor type girl. I don't like to get dirty and I HATE to sweat, which I do a lot lately cause A) It's hotter that Haites in Kansas this summer and B) I've had a child. Anywho. I'm so proud of my handy work! I moved some of Brogan's toys from the living room up here and he loves it! It's his own little play area. He can watch his movies up here and play with some of his favorite toys. There are a few things that need a 'place' or stuff we probably could get rid of, but for now it's cozy and comfy and it works. I'd show you pictures but I have yet to do that. Lame, I know.<br /><br />It's amazing how rearranging a room or just tackling a project that has been on the back burner can make you feel so good! And it's a great way to handle stress...not that I would have any right now. *insert sarcasm*<br /><br />I'm am, however, happy to have my cute little nook for reading, an office, and a play area for Brogan.<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-34899095754899702842011-07-29T08:56:00.002-05:002011-07-29T09:01:36.702-05:00Giveaway!! from Little Miss MommaIf you've never heard of Ashley aka <a href="http://www.littlemissmomma.com/2011/07/cool-story-and-tiffanys-ring-giveaway.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+blogspot%2FvlrRO+%28Little+Miss+Momma%29&utm_content=Google+Reader">Little Miss Momma</a>, head there NOW.

Weird, right? Normally Friday is the day people can't wait for throughout the week! I'm normally one of them. But tomorrow, I'm not.<br /><br />Tomorrow is my last day at my current job. I've been working at this office for 8 years and have honestly loved it. It's ultimately going to be the hardest day of my life (so far). I'm so freakin' grateful for my boss and his family. They have treated me like a member of their family and been there for me and my family. My boss is like a dad to me and he has been more than understanding of my decision. I know I'll always be welcome in the office and whatnot but it won't be the same.<br /><br />I am, however, excited for tomorrow a tiny bit because it's an excuse to have a FOOD DAY! And those of you who know me, know I LURVE me some food....for reals. They actually give me a hard time at work regarding food days and my on going love affair with them. <br /><br />So, as horribly emotional as tomorrow might be....at least I'll have the food to keep me happy! HAHA!<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-83907282210749660782011-07-27T08:56:00.001-05:002011-07-27T09:00:49.835-05:00Test.Kim is <s>a loser</s> totally awesome.<br /><br />(I did NOT type this, b.t.dubs.)<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-35408762794446779142011-07-27T08:35:00.004-05:002011-07-27T08:43:48.556-05:00No More Binky For Piggy, or Brogan.One of our fave books right now is "No More Pacifier For Piggy" but we change the words. We say No More Binkie for Piggy...it flows better and Brogan calls his pacifier a binkie. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-f6YOOEw20yg/TjAU1WmOJcI/AAAAAAAABjQ/1Ul8hvcJNhs/s1600/no-more-pacifier-for-piggy-bernette-ford-hardcover-cover-art.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 201px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-f6YOOEw20yg/TjAU1WmOJcI/AAAAAAAABjQ/1Ul8hvcJNhs/s320/no-more-pacifier-for-piggy-bernette-ford-hardcover-cover-art.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634026040672003522" /></a><br /><br />Anyway. <br /><br />Since Saturday, Brogan has asked maybe once a day for his binkie. He doesn't cry and whine about it anymore; just asks where it is. He's been sleeping through the night just fine and naps are getting a tad bit better. I'm SO super proud of our little guy! I think that Saturday for his "week anniversary", I'm gonna do something fun with him! <br /><br />I'm gonna leave you with some pictures that have become my favorites lately!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-O1OqdWEBMSA/TjAVWS6ALgI/AAAAAAAABjw/mMGj-ib1PVo/s1600/230386_10150272546699175_502974174_8748085_4054692_n.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 247px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-O1OqdWEBMSA/TjAVWS6ALgI/AAAAAAAABjw/mMGj-ib1PVo/s320/230386_10150272546699175_502974174_8748085_4054692_n.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634026606616915458" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GxyZjInYj2Q/TjAVWE6pdqI/AAAAAAAABjo/Rq1pFv3HICk/s1600/224273_10150272545069175_502974174_8748056_7253832_n%25282%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GxyZjInYj2Q/TjAVWE6pdqI/AAAAAAAABjo/Rq1pFv3HICk/s320/224273_10150272545069175_502974174_8748056_7253832_n%25282%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634026602861524642" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lc2U3_LkpJc/TjAVWIu9ujI/AAAAAAAABjg/w0mRCftSvoc/s1600/209263_10150254022859175_502974174_8591063_2168581_o%25283%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lc2U3_LkpJc/TjAVWIu9ujI/AAAAAAAABjg/w0mRCftSvoc/s320/209263_10150254022859175_502974174_8591063_2168581_o%25283%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634026603886262834" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GULoshRvTM8/TjAVVxnh3LI/AAAAAAAABjY/wbRkZFgeoE4/s1600/201631_10150254018514175_502974174_8590996_6786763_o%25285%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GULoshRvTM8/TjAVVxnh3LI/AAAAAAAABjY/wbRkZFgeoE4/s320/201631_10150254018514175_502974174_8590996_6786763_o%25285%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634026597681061042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mtZmLpz9550/TjAV2XCeMxI/AAAAAAAABkI/dHBHxi4sm2I/s1600/262435_10150348475149175_502974174_9462354_5849954_n.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 314px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mtZmLpz9550/TjAV2XCeMxI/AAAAAAAABkI/dHBHxi4sm2I/s320/262435_10150348475149175_502974174_9462354_5849954_n.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634027157481992978" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QAqv_nmndpM/TjAV2KuMYuI/AAAAAAAABkA/D9Z0PS4EofU/s1600/262012_10150329679334175_502974174_9252126_514287_n.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 215px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QAqv_nmndpM/TjAV2KuMYuI/AAAAAAAABkA/D9Z0PS4EofU/s320/262012_10150329679334175_502974174_9252126_514287_n.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634027154175714018" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YvayG-Nl2IA/TjAV2BTgGjI/AAAAAAAABj4/-CTTK4r4bTw/s1600/219040_10150272545954175_502974174_8748072_8165706_o.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 282px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YvayG-Nl2IA/TjAV2BTgGjI/AAAAAAAABj4/-CTTK4r4bTw/s320/219040_10150272545954175_502974174_8748072_8165706_o.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634027151647840818" /></a><br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-37441307800115626632011-07-26T08:56:00.003-05:002011-07-26T09:12:40.016-05:00I Don't Do ChangeYep. Second post this week...back to back. WHAT WHAT?!?!? <--I don't know.<br /><br />So I just got a text from one of my best friends, Jenna. She doesn't know how emotional I've been (re: leaving my job of 8 years for something completely knew and different) this last week. But yet she tells me "I know this week is going to make you sad, and possibly question your decision to leave, but keep your chin up and remember you will be going to a place that you will love what you do!" Instant tears folks. Instant. I know I'm making a great decision for myself, my family, and for the future. But holy freakin' cow, it's SO hard to imagine me not sitting behind this desk next week. And for the weeks to come. This has been a safe place for me. I don't do change very well. But we all grow up and move on and I'm not the only one in the universe who's ever gone through this. <br /><br />Before the text, I also got an email from Jenna this morning regarding a new song I should download. Totally made my morning as well! It's titled "Booty Work" by T-Pain. Very inspirational if you ask me....haha! I told her that I wanted to dance like those girls when I grow up (b.t.dubs: there is a ghetto girl inside this little white girl). It's talent ya'll...pure. talent. Look it up on YouTube. Trust me.<br /><br />Anywhos. Thanks Jenna for helping me in more ways than one! LOVE YOU OODLES AND OODLES!<br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-16030188437087196222011-07-25T10:45:00.006-05:002011-07-26T10:22:46.543-05:00I've been here the whollllle time.Let's not talk about where I've been or why I haven't blogged. That'd just be a silly topic and I'd rather pretend it hasn't been half past FOREVER since I've logged on to good ol' Blogger.com.<br /><br />I have, however, still been blog stalking (courtesy of the wonderful Google Reader) on my hiatus and everyday feel guilty for not keeping up with my own blog. Not that I'm THAT interesting, but ya know...I could be if I tried. I'm funny...can I say that? (inside joke...lame I know)<br /><br />So anywhatsit. Let's at least get down to what we did this weekend.<br /><br />Spur of the moment Friday afternoon, I text the hubs and through out the idea of finally breaking our sweet little boy of his binkie. His beloved and always faithful binkie. I figured if we don't "rip it off like a bandaid" (sick) then it's gonna take ME a long time to finally get it done. So...that night I told Brogan about how the next day the Binkie Fairy was going to come to our house and get his binkie to give it to a baby who was sad and didn't have one. I explained that this was because he is such a big boy now and big boys don't need binkies. I was hesitant but did it anyway. Saturday morning, I let him have his binkie longer than usual (he normally would put it away right when he got up) and both daddy and mommy reassured him he'd be ok without his binkie and had him say his final goodbyes. Enter emotional mommy here. MAN THAT WAS FREAKIN' HARD!!!! You'd think it was MY binkie that was getting taken away. I made a quick trip to Walgreen's to pick up a little something to leave in the binkies place. I know, bribery probably isn't the best parenting tactic, but lay off me, mm'kay? It's what I needed to do to make myself feel better. Haha! We went swimming for about an hour trying to wear our little monkey out. Come nap time, I honestly was nervous. We showed him what the Fairy had left him and read him the note she left as well. He only cried for about 20 minutes...not. bad. at. all. Except....he woke up 1 1/2 hours later (on a good day, this kid will sleep for 3+ hours). SCREAMING -- So much for wearing him out.And that lasted a good 45 minutes. I felt horrible. But we still held our ground and after his tantrum, he was fine. <br /><br />Saturday night we headed to Lawrence for dinner to celebrate my FIL's birthday. Brogan was PERFECT! We don't go out to eat much due to a very antsy and busy child. But we were able to eat some fantastic Chinese food and then my BIl, his GF, and my self took Brogan to The Toy Store (family owned! DISCOUNT BABY!) down the street. It was fun for Brogan and for me too...ya see, my BIL works there and on top of getting a family discount, we also get lots of free/discounted goodies. So I was going around making my list of things Brogan needed. Yes, needed. After playing for a while, we headed to the local froyo shop. DELISH. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WOiDAdXLKSM/Ti2Uo_RGf8I/AAAAAAAABiI/lZAdMYLeBnk/s1600/photo1.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 239px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WOiDAdXLKSM/Ti2Uo_RGf8I/AAAAAAAABiI/lZAdMYLeBnk/s320/photo1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633322140809199554" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-68tE7mL0R50/Ti2UpoFYZuI/AAAAAAAABiY/TF2bOcze4A4/s1600/photo3.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 239px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-68tE7mL0R50/Ti2UpoFYZuI/AAAAAAAABiY/TF2bOcze4A4/s320/photo3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633322151765894882" /></a><br />Brogan was in sugar heaven! We headed home and put B down for a LATE bedtime. He asked Tommy one time for his binkie but that was it...out like a light.<br /><br />Sunday morning, Brogan so graciously slept in till 8:30 (cue angel chorus) and asked me one time about his binkie. Again, I told him about the Fairy and that was it. I totes broke out my Cinderella waffle iron (wedding gift from my in laws...5 YEARS AGO and this was the first time it's seen light) and made some shitey waffles. Whatevs. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-na2DC3ns9K4/Ti2Up99ndYI/AAAAAAAABig/Kj3GZfrkL9Q/s1600/photo4.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 239px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-na2DC3ns9K4/Ti2Up99ndYI/AAAAAAAABig/Kj3GZfrkL9Q/s320/photo4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633322157638907266" /></a> <br />Brogan didn't hardly notice since I put Nutella on top. That afternoon I had a date with my besties daughter (we saw the movie Zookeeper...Hi.Larious.) so I left Brogan at my mom's since Tommy was working. She said nap time was a littttttle rough and he only slept for a little over an hour. Sweet Baby Jebus, I hope this napping thing gets easier/better. Our evening was low key and again, bed time went fine. At least he's sleeping at night, I guess. All in all, this weekend was great!<br /><br />Today marks my last Monday at work. I was offered a great job so I put in my 2 weeks and this coming Friday is my last day (after 8 years...EIGHT, PEOPLE). Maybe I'll do a post about all that jazz...but honestly, I'm so freakin' emotional about leaving that I don't know if I can. Whatevs. That's life, right?<br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-72504852568355390472011-05-09T09:23:00.004-05:002011-05-10T14:09:42.092-05:00Mother's Day {2011}(Hopefully I can get some pictures up by tomorrow)<br />I had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday! I'll be honest and say the last few haven't been the best. God bless my husband, but it took an almost all out brawl (I only joke) last year for him to understand that yes, I'm not his mother, but I did birth his child and until Brogan is 15 and can do things for me by himself, it's Tommy's job. Anyway. I woke up to a loud little boy wanting to get up! Tommy got up also and got Brogan fed and dressed while I got ready for church. After church, we were welcomed to Tommy grilling out hamburgers! I was pumped! I love me some grilled hamburgers, especially when Tommy makes them. Tommy had to work at noon so it was a quick lunch before he had to leave. I did get a sweet card from my boys and a very nice gift card to Barnes and Noble! I have already purchased 2 books for my NookColor. One being Two Kisses for Maddy by <a href="http://www.mattlogelin.com/">Matt Logelin</a>. While Brogan napped I was able to relax on the couch and read. I was planning on sleeping while he slept but it didn't turn out that way. I always seem to find other things to do besides sit and relax. I ended up cleaning the toilets! Ha! So when Tommy got home, I was able to sneak in a little bit of a nap before we started our afternoon/evening plans. I got to pick where we ate dinner but before that, we headed to Gage Park to ride the carousel. Brogan LOVES the carousel! We also played on the play groud until we were all sweating to death! It got hot on Sunday! I was a little nervous to go out to eat with Brogan since we haven't done it much. But he was perfect! He ate so well and behaved himself. After dinner, we headed to Tommy's dad's house to have tapioca pudding and enjoy some more time outside. By the time we got home, Brogan was SO sweaty and sticky! Bless his heart. It was definitely a bath kind of night for that boy! He was so ready for bed too!<br /><br />All in all, I had a wonderful day! I am a very blessed momma! And I'm blessed to have such a wonderful momma! She spent her Mother's Day sungglin' my niece in Kansas City. Lucky :)<br /><br />Maaaaayyybbbeee I'm hoping to possibly have/almost have another little buddle of joy by next Mother's Day. We'll see!! <br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-20530774754788916562011-04-26T10:09:00.007-05:002011-04-26T10:35:53.574-05:00Easter Weekend {2011}I started off my 4 DAY WEEKEND with chores around the house. But I was definitely ok with that! I wanted to get all the laundry, cleaning, dishes, etc done before the actual weekend so I could spend plenty of time with my family. I got to run a few errands on Thursday, one of which included buying my boy some new clothes for Spring/Summer. The Children's Place was having a great sale AND I had a coupon. I love that store! We didn't get home and down for a nap until close to 2; Brogan usually goes down between 12:00 and 1:00...oops :) He finally fell asleep around 3:15 and then slept till 6 pm! Thursdays are the days when I don't see Tommy till after 9 and Brogan doesn't see him at all, unless we're up watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse when Tommy leaves for work. I was definitely ok with Brogan sleeping till later. He went to bed 30 minutes later than normal time but slept like a champ! My kid is definitely one of those that NEEDS an afternoon nap or else he will not sleep at night. Sounds weird, but so so true. <br /><br />Friday, Mr. B got a haircut and we had lunch at Panera with one of my besties, <a href="http://jennalechner.blogspot.com/">Jenna</a>. We had a great time just chattin' away and watching Brogan be silly. I've found that having a relaxing girls lunch doesn't happen with a toddler but we still found the time to catch up. Jenna and I have had our issues in the past but we really have overcome some HUGE obstacles and become crazy close. I love that girl SO much and she's a friend who I know will always be there for me no matter what. She may not check her voice mail, but I love her none the less ;) Plus, she owns a gun AND a walkie talkie....holla!<br /><br />Friday night, Tommy and I went to celebrate one of our dear friends 35th birthday in Kansas City at Dave and Busters. If you've never been, YOU NEED TO GO! It's a restaurant AND a huge arcade. I've never been one to play a lot of video games, but I played my heart out! And won tons of tickets! I got Brogan a stuffed pug and naturally he named it Gus, after our pug.<br /><br />Saturday, we spent time inside and out. The weather wasn't great so it allowed me to get lots of house work done. I rearranged some things on the kitchen cabinets that just makes me feel more organized. I love that feeling! It's nice to not have clutter all over the place. It was a low key night since I had to get up to sing at church on Sunday.<br /><br />Brogan got to find his Easter basket before church and he loved all his goodies! He wasn't sure he wanted to leave every thing at home while we went to church. I was asked about a month ago to sing on the praise team for Easter Sunday. I got to sing with our youth director (AWESOME lady with such a talented heart!!) and a friend of mine from high school who I've always enjoyed singing with. I'm gonna toot my own horn and say that we KILLED it! I felt so on fire for God during that service and loved every second! We are going to try to do this once a month and I couldn't be more excited. I get so much more out of church when the music is awesome; I've always been like that. It's my passion, what can I say! After church, Brogan and I headed home to change clothes and get Tommy. We headed up to Tommy's grandma's house to do lunch and Easter egg hunts. The kids had a blast! Brogan even took a nap in a 'big person' bed and did great! After spending most of the day at grandma's house, we headed to my parents house so Brogan could find his Easter basket. Brogan LOVES to help Gramma and Papa in the yard (or wherever he can) so my parents got him a toy shovel and rake. He decided it was a great idea to dump out the fake grass in his bucket and rake it up. Such a big helper! On our way home, we made a quick stop at Tommy's dad's house to see everyone and ended up staying for dinner and a makeshift Easter egg hunt. Brogan sure did make out good between money, candy, and toys. <br /><br />I have a feeling we'll be eating hard boiled eggs and candy for WEEKS!<br /><br />Here are some pictures from our Easter afternoon. I didn't take a whole lot of pictures AFTER we left Tommy's grandma's house...oops!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DuFlp5LZps4/TbblkCDjwHI/AAAAAAAABhM/wrFKpZCVuZg/s1600/224738_10150254027249175_502974174_8591111_5355081_n.JPG"><img style="display:block;

Let me tell you a little about this lady. Danyelle is about the nicest person you'll ever meet. She's had her fair share of 'not good' relationships but we always knew that when she found the one, it was going to be someone outstanding. And she has definitely found that. Her fiance, Beau, is just as nice and caring as she is. They compliment each other so well. We were all so stinkin' excited when they got engaged! It's hard to believe that her bachelorette party is already over and the wedding is a week from this coming Saturday! Time flies when you're in love! I was honored when she asked me to be a bridesmaid and to sing at her wedding. I love that girl so so much!<br /><br />I gotta say, Saturday night was the funnest night I've had in a loooonnggg time! We met at Danyelle's house for food, a couple games, and gifts. Then we had a kick ass party bus pick us up for our night on the town ;) Let me tell you, this bus was decked out! And it was clean! Haha! We hit up some bars around town and then ended up at Danyelle's favorite dance bar. This girl had the time of her life and I know the bride did as well. <br /><br />Here are some pictures of our night out. I can't wait for the wedding! It'll be epic, I'm sure!<br /><br />Danyelle and her momma<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OxVERyowiFo/Ta2T01u1G6I/AAAAAAAABdU/7-iXwv382RU/s1600/205718_10150247471134175_502974174_8522553_560615_n.JPG"><img style="display:block;

The last couple months I haven't been able to due to our schedule but this last Monday I got to go hang out with the Monday night girls bible study (GOF = Girls of Faith). It wasn't their typical Monday night setting; this week they were helping out at the church making the meal for Wednesday's Lenten dinner. Not all the girls were there but I did get to meet a few of them and they were adorbs! They seemed to like me too, which is a good thing if I'm going to be around them more :)<br /><br />Every summer, the youth group from Faith (as well as all the other YG's from the Lutheran churches in Topeka) takes a week long trip to Woodland Park, CO. The camp they go to is called LVR (<a href="http://www.lvr.org/">Lutheran Valley Retreat</a>). I LOVED going every year! It was the highlight of my summer. We stayed in cabins, did strength building activities, had amazing bible studies, and just had a freakin' blast! Well, Tuesday morning I got an email from Audrey, the youth pastor @ Faith, and she asked me if I'd like to go as a sponsor this year, FOR FREE! Um, excuse me??? A week long vacay in CO with amazing kids/adults for NOTHING OUTTA MY POCKET???? Like seriously, I pay for nothing! Except for snacks I may want during the week. I was beyond thrilled! I talked to Tommy and he was definitely ok with me going, as long as it was something I wanted to do. I was so excited to tell Audrey I would go!<br /><br />Then last night I couldn't fall asleep 'cause I was thinking of all the stuff I'd need to take, outfits to wear, the responsibility I'll have. Then I panicked. I'm going to have to be RESPONSIBLE!!! Not just for myself, but for a cabin of girls. I have to lead a daily discussion in our cabin about stuff. I have to watch my mouth. I have to be....wait for it.....an ADULT. As freaked out as I am, this makes me oooooober excited! I want to be the sponsor that these girls look up to and admire. I want to be the girl they want to be like (not trying to be conceded). I want to be fun and silly but they know when I'm serious and mean business. I look up to Audrey so so so much and she's ALL of those things. <br /><br />Another thing I'm looking forward to on this trip, is the fact that I'll get so much more out of it NOW then I did in high school. And that's such an awesome thing.<br /><br />Now, as excited as I am....I'm totally not looking forward to a week without my boys. I think they'll be just fine and will have fun...but I'm secretly hoping that they'll miss me a whole bunch.<br /><br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-90015080619449016172011-04-12T16:00:00.002-05:002011-04-12T16:16:17.097-05:00{oh hey...}It's totally been about a minute since I've posted last. But here's the thing. I just don't have much motivation lately. So to fix that, I'm going to revamp my blog name! I love what I have but I feel it could be more "me". I'm not only a wife and a mom, but I'm ME. And I want to feel I have an outlet to discuss ALL things in my life. And to be honest and angry and happy and silly and stupid and crazy. <br /><br />Hopefully I'll start posting more often. Now, the hard part will be to figure out what kind of "blog title" I want. <br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-78837283548645246082011-01-18T16:03:00.002-06:002011-01-18T16:18:53.183-06:00{untitled}Brogan has been doing slightly better with the whole binkie situation. It still takes him a little bit to go down at nap time, but at least it's not a screaming match for 3 hours. (Ok maybe that's an exaggeration but you get it). I totally had a 'mommy moment' last night. Ok, wait. Back it up. Yesterdays nap time was NOT a success. My mom said he cried/talked in his bed until 3:45 (he goes down between 12:00-12:30) and only slept for an hour....AN HOUR! Anyway, back to my story. Last night on the way home I wanted to stop by Dollar Tree to get some crafting supplies. I told B he could have a balloon if he behaved and let mommy quickly shop. When I was trying to put him in the cart, he was refusing to sit in the designated seat. Ok, I chose my battle and moved on. I tried to get him to SIT in the big part of the cart like he wanted. He wanted no part in sitting. O.M.G. I told him that if he wasn't going to listen to mommy that we were just going to go home with no balloon. He still carried on. So, in front of a whole store of people, I said nope and walked out the door. I have NEVER had to do that before but I also didn't want to be "That Mom" who made everyone in the store suffer and listen to my screaming child because I wanted to shop. He threw a huge fit in the car and I kept telling myself to breathe so I wouldn't break down. We were fine when we got home and the rest of the night was alright. <br /><br />My best gay, Ivory, is coming over tonight to hang out for a bit and I'm so excited! He came over last night to watch The Bach and drink wine. We are going to try to make it an every Monday occurrence. We need to see each other weekly. Speaking of Brad. Oh. My. Emily. If he doesn't marry that girl, he is one crazy S.O.B. She's a DOLL! And that Michelle b*$&%, holy CRAZY TOWN! I'm SO excited to see next weeks episode!<br /><br />I hope to get better at my blogging. Obviously I've been sucking at it. Hardcore. I'm SO addicted to like a BILLION blogs and I check my Google Reader seriously like 10 times every hour. I just don't think to update mine very often. Oh well. Such is life!<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-39711778397026345772011-01-15T12:18:00.002-06:002011-01-15T12:35:24.470-06:00Binkie DilemaWe are having WW3 here at the Guffey household. Slowly but surely we are trying to rid our boy of his beloved "D" aka his binkie. My sweet Brogan boy has been attached to his "D" from day one. It's never been an issue and I guess technically it still isn't. Our doctor did tell us that until he is 3, they see no problem with him having it. We've done pretty good in the past with getting him to just have it at nap and bedtime. Well, when your baby doesn't feel good or is just so distraught over not having his only vice, sometimes it's easier to give in. Enter: me. I think I'm mostly the problem, I don't always feel up to sticking to my guns and it's such an easy fix to just give him the bink. But something came over me on Thursday. I decided I'd had enough. I knew the way to ween him off the binkie was to do just that; ween. In the past with his bottle and sippy cup, it was a whole lot easier to ween him off little by little. I ended up cutting 2 of his binkies and he absolutely HATED it. And still does. Naptime on Thursday was a nightmare. He cried for an hour and a half and slept for a bout as long. This child normally takes a good 3 hour nap. I wasn't going to deal with that again at bedtime so we decided our best bet was to give him his 'normal' binkie that way we all get a good nights sleep. Yesterday, my MIL said he did just fine at naptime...figures. But today, we've been battling again. As I type this, he is crying in his bed, cut binkie tossed out on to the floor, and I'm trying to drown him out so I don't give in.<br /><br />I was in tears before his nap because I don't know what to do. Am I doing this the right way? Should I give in to him since he is still little? I feel horrible because like I said before, it's his vice, his blankie, his stuff animal. I've thought about just throwing them away all together and just dealing with it. But that action would be out of anger and frustration and not logical thinking. <br /><br />I knew parenting was tough. I know we haven't even hit the tip of the ice berg yet. But holy cow! We NEED to get this binkie sitch figured out before we start potty training and I'd LOVE to think it'll all be figured out before baby #2 comes along. That's sorta my 'goal'. But I also know not to put a timeline on this either.<br /><br />If anyone has ANY advice whatsoever, please please please help me! <br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-71281524142020229682010-12-01T09:28:00.005-06:002010-12-01T09:50:27.972-06:00A few of my faves...I am VERY in to a few things right now and I just felt like sharing!<br /><br />China Glase has 2 colors that I've been obsessing over lately!<br />Ruby Pumps (my ALL TIME FAVE Christmas color)<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZqDn_gtFI/AAAAAAAABbQ/4DM2p66IbUA/s1600/ruby%2Bpumps.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 275px; height: 275px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZqDn_gtFI/AAAAAAAABbQ/4DM2p66IbUA/s320/ruby%2Bpumps.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545736601660863570" /></a><br />And Lubu Heels:<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZqQh6ckeI/AAAAAAAABbY/gJzLwVZLwRo/s1600/263D330C.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZqQh6ckeI/AAAAAAAABbY/gJzLwVZLwRo/s320/263D330C.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545736823367307746" /></a><br /><br />I love my new holiday Scentsy burner! I have it on ALL THE TIME! I believe the scent I have in it is Snoberry. The scent I have in the kitchen is Christmas Cottage and together they smell SO GOOD!<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZr54nsR6I/AAAAAAAABbg/EvMGdfc1nus/s1600/DSW-SNOR.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZr54nsR6I/AAAAAAAABbg/EvMGdfc1nus/s320/DSW-SNOR.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545738633348925346" /></a><br /><br />I have also been mildly obsessed with Shutterfly! I ordered our Christmas cards from there, started a family website, ordered some pictures, and made some calenders! It's definitely a great website!<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZsMV-YI3I/AAAAAAAABbo/CbQv6G2QWRY/s1600/logo_header_full-v12579720310002037.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 160px; height: 47px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TPZsMV-YI3I/AAAAAAAABbo/CbQv6G2QWRY/s320/logo_header_full-v12579720310002037.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545738950466347890" /></a><br /><br />There are lots more things I've been enjoying lately but I thought I'd just share a few. <br /><br />I can't believe it's already December! This year has flown by, that is for sure. I still have more Christmas decor to put up but for some reason, I just haven't had the motivation. Maybe I will finally get it all done tomorrow on my day off. But I won't hold my breath! Ha!<br /><br />I did get most of our cards addressed last night and I'm hoping to get them done tonight so I can send them off by Friday! It's definitely one of my fave things to get done this time of year. There is something about sending them off and knowing I'm ahead of the game. Makes me happy! <br /><br />I'm totally copying from one of my besties, <a href="http://jennalechner.blogspot.com/">Jenna</a>, and making a CA-UTE card holder! Check out her blog to see what she did (she is ALWAYS making the cutest things and I am beyond envious! LOVE YOU GIRL!)! I cannot WAIT! We got our first card in the mail yesterday so I need to hurry and get our holder done before the card flood gates open!<br /><br />OH! I totally just remembered! One of our friends got a group of us tickets to the NYE Laughing Matters again this year. I cannot wait! We had huge group go last year and had the best time! I know this year will be just as fun! We are beyond blessed to have such wonderful friends, who happen to also be our theatre family! <br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-88381119619997519892010-11-29T15:53:00.002-06:002010-11-29T16:16:24.198-06:00Thanksgiving FestivitiesWe enjoyed our 4 day break, that is for sure! I was not ready to head back to work today, especially since yesterday I started to feel yucky. This could be from the over eating and lack of sleep...oops!<br /><br />Thursday we headed over to Tommy's mom's side for lunch and man oh man was everything delish! We ended up with 6 pies and like 3-4 other desserts. It was a dream come true! I actually made an apple pie this year. But not really. I used Pillsbury pie crust and my SIL's apple pie filling she had made a couple months ago and canned. Either way though, I put it all together, added a few of my own little touches, and baked it! It turned out delish! I was proud of myself. Brogan had so much fun playing with his cousins as well as anyone else who'd give him attention! The girls on Tommy's side (MIL, SIL, aunt, cousin, and myself) decided this year that we were going to head to Legend's Shopping Center in KC on Thursday night. We left at 9:00 pm and had an absolute blast! We stood on a few lines out in the cold but it wasn't too bad. We hit up Carter's (majority of my money was spent there), OshKosh, Rack Room Shoes, Old Navy, The Rocky Mountain chocolate place (DUH!), and a few other little places. OMG, was this a freakin' BLAST! We decided that this was the start of a tradition.<br />I failed at taking pictures on Thursday. I was so busy chasing Brogan and eating and just taking in the family time I didn't care much for taking pictures.<br /><br />The last few years on Black Friday (minus last year and the year after B was born), my MIL, SIL, and myself venture to Lawrence to just have a fun day shopping. It's so nice downtown cause the stores are unique and normally aren't packed. When we first got down there, we stopped off at Michael's to waste time while my SIL got her car worked on. And that is where I scored my most favoritest Christmas (or birthday) gift! The Cricuit machine! Michael's had them on sale BF for $60 and they still had plenty left so I snagged one up! I've been secretly, but not so quietly, wanting one of these! I kept hinting to Tommy about it and was SO excited to get it at such a great deal. I also got a few other things but they don't amount up to my Cricuit. I can't wait to take it out of the box, but I'm being a good girl and waiting till Tommy wants to give it to me.<br /><br />Friday night after Brogan went to bed and Tommy went out for a bit, I got down all our Christmas decorations and went to town, sorta. I was so tired from the last couple days that I mostly focused on the tree. I purchased shatter proof ornaments this year since SOMEONE (a cute little 2 year old who lives in our spare bedroom) broke most of our ornaments last year. It looks so good and I love dimming all the lights in the house and just having the Christmas tree lit. I have, since Friday, gotten most everything out and placed, except our stockings cause I ordered a cute new stocking holder that is BACK ORDERED!!!! Soooo frustrating! <br /><br />Saturday we had Thanksgiving with my side of the family. We had a great time. Brogan took a wonderfully long nap that allowed this momma and daddy to have a couple glasses of wine, eat a delish lunch, and visit with family! After little man woke up, we played at my parents neighborhood playground. He had SO much fun! We all slept great that night! Sunday morning, my sweet hubbs let me sleep in and I stayed in that bed as long as I could before feeling guilty! Although, I did wake up with a headache and that's when the yucky feeling started. I really hope I don't get sick and that plenty of rest, water, and vitamins will help! FINGERS CROSSED! <br /><br />Last night, we had dinner at Tommy's dad's house for my SIL's birthday. I ate SO much pizza and tapioca pudding! SO yummy!! We were able to get a game in, which is always fun with this group of people. Tommy's brothers GF played with Brogan so that we could play the game. Soooo sweet of her!<br /><br /><br />Tonight, I'm helping my sweet momma decorate their house for Christmas! I love doing stuff like that, especially with my bestest friend!<br /><br />Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!<br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-52888975053482560062010-11-23T08:35:00.003-06:002010-11-23T08:42:37.842-06:00Craft Morning with the girlsThis last Saturday, some of my best girlfriends got together for coffee and crafts. Chelsey came up with a great idea to make our GF Melisa cute onsies for her baby girl Delaney, who is set to make her appearance in just a couple weeks! They turned out so cute! We had such a nice time catching up over coffee and then continuing the fun over at Chelsey's house. Some of us (mostly me) got frustrated with the freezer paper project and went straight for the iron ons. BUT they all turned out SO CUTE! Here is a picture of all the finished projects (Chels, I stole this picture from you!! It was much better than mine!).<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOvSDDURgVI/AAAAAAAABbI/OShE0ZxWY0s/s1600/154802_499543099918_513049918_7130735_549495_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 179px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOvSDDURgVI/AAAAAAAABbI/OShE0ZxWY0s/s320/154802_499543099918_513049918_7130735_549495_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5542754716281307474" /></a><br /><br />I'm not exactly sure where Chelsey found the freezer paper tutorial, but I know I've seen it around on some other blogs. And it's such a cute, cheap, and fun way (as long as you don't have an very detailed stencil) to make shirts. I'm totally trying this again, maybe with less espresso in my system (right Jenna!?!?).<br /><br />We all decided that as each of us have more babies, we'll do this again and again. It was a blast girls! Now, LET'S GET PREGGERS! ;)<br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-16279637127460687992010-11-19T17:37:00.002-06:002010-11-19T17:47:25.129-06:00Youth Group Bound!Yesterday, I had a meeting with my church's youth pastor, Audrey (or DCE is her official title). It went WONDERFUL! And it got me SO EXCITED! Audrey walked me through all the activities the youth do and holy smokes does it make me want to be in the youth group again! And they still do things that we did way back when! That made my heart happy. There are so many places and ways to get involved but I think my heart is leading me to get involved with the girls bible study. They meet every Monday night and Audrey told me that would be a great way to get to know the girls. I'm going to pray about it and see if this is where God wants me. There are plenty of other ways they could use me also, when I'm ready. I can't wait to really get in the mix of all this stuff! On a side note, Audrey said I'd really be great with this youth group especially with all my sass! And if you know me, you know I can have some sass (and can get a little ghetto too, but that's for another post).<br /><br />I'm not sure when I'll start helping but I would love it to be soon! But I also don't want to jump in and get overwhelmed. I also think that helping with a bible study of some kind will be good for my own heart as well. I've been wanting to be a part of a bible study or group and even though these girls are SEVERAL years younger, I know that I will get something out of this one way or another.<br /><br />Anywho...this makes me excited and I just ask that maybe you all (whoever still reads this since I'm so MIA all the time!) say a little prayer for me that I'm making a good decision! I'd totes appreciate it, for real. :)<br /><br />Happy Weekend!<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-87811321735624377412010-11-17T14:34:00.003-06:002010-11-17T14:47:28.376-06:00Winter is coming!It's officially snowing in Topeka, KS today. Actually, it's more like rainy, slushy, snowy mix...but still there is snow in the mix. Which means one thing for this gal!!!!<br /><br />WINTER DECOR IS COMING OUT! I wonder if my husband knows exactly how much 'winter decor' his wife has. He might be completely shocked when he gets home!<br /><br />I'm so excited for tomorrow! I have a meeting with my churchs DCE (Director of Christian Education) to discuss how I can get more involved with the youth. I really think this is something that God is calling me to do and seriously, I'm so excited to get involved in this way. Now, I might just help out every once in a while but I could also be taking on more than I think. Either way, I trust that God will lead me to do what's best for me and Him.<br /><br />And tomorrow is also Tommy and I's kidless night! I love Brogan more than words can say, but Tommy and I need some one on one time. Like I said in yesterdays post, we could very well just sit and vedge on the couch but whatever we do, we'll be together with no distractions.<br /><br />Give someone a hug or big smile today...they might need it more than you think!<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-7327658447151837522010-11-16T09:31:00.005-06:002010-11-16T09:51:42.872-06:00Christmas Cards!Every year, I like to get our Christmas cards out at least the week after Thanksgiving! And this year, I decided to use Shutterfly for our Christmas cards! This will be the first time getting cards from them but it won't be the first time I've used their website! I absolutely LOVE Shutterfly and all the stuff they offer.<br /><br />All of their designs are SO cute (go here to see for yourself: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards) and I love how many choices they have. They have folded greeting cards, flat stationary cards, or flat photo cards. I most likely will go with the Flat Photo Cards this year. Here are some that I'm thinking about:<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlNDoybCI/AAAAAAAABag/ty61xZl6wEU/s1600/PHOTOCARD-103-4237-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128209213200092216.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlNDoybCI/AAAAAAAABag/ty61xZl6wEU/s320/PHOTOCARD-103-4237-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128209213200092216.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540172135352396834" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlMmrkHKI/AAAAAAAABaY/Dm21AzTxyGQ/s1600/PHOTOCARD-103-4235-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v1282092191000104380.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlMmrkHKI/AAAAAAAABaY/Dm21AzTxyGQ/s320/PHOTOCARD-103-4235-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v1282092191000104380.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540172127579413666" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlMXMLyrI/AAAAAAAABaQ/7p84QmgdPxY/s1600/PHOTOCARD-104-4297-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128209215400091347.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlMXMLyrI/AAAAAAAABaQ/7p84QmgdPxY/s320/PHOTOCARD-104-4297-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128209215400091347.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540172123421264562" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlL7lGCsI/AAAAAAAABaI/xwjjLGHTDZs/s1600/PHOTOCARD-103-411-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v125210396500067333.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 231px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TOKlL7lGCsI/AAAAAAAABaI/xwjjLGHTDZs/s320/PHOTOCARD-103-411-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v125210396500067333.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540172116009552578" /></a><br /><br />Our color scheme for our pictures were black, gray, and blue.

Life has been busy and I've been lazy. I also have been using Google Reader to read all my blogs and I since I don't have to sign in to Blooger anymore, I just don't feel as obligated to blog. Hopefully that'll change (but that's not the first time I've said that!).<br /><br />Here's what's been happening in a nut shell:<br /><br />*Tommy has been SO busy with the play he is in. It's called 'Rumors' and OMG. HILARIOUS! I saw it this last Friday and am also going again on Sunday afternoon. We're so very happy he'll be home more often. Brogan and I have really missed our time with him. This Thursday night, my MIL is keeping Brogan over night so us lovebirds can have some alone time. I'd love to say we're going on a romantic date but I have a feeling that we'll either stay home and lounge on the couch, or go do some crazy Christmas shopping (which I'm almost done with, thankyouverymuch!).<br /><br />*Tommy and I have had some ups and downs lately, if I'm being honest, and we really have figured some things out. Our relationship is so much stronger than it was even 3 weeks ago. I love him more than words can say and I'm so thankful for my husband!<br /><br />*Brogan is sill on. the. go. CONSTANTLY! But I love every second! There are evenings when all I wanna do is not play the mom and just go to bed right when I get home. But then I think that he isn't as tired as me and totally deserves 100%! We have so much fun together and he truly is a gift from God.<br /><br />*Saturday, we had our Christmas card pictures taken by our sweet friend Sara. She took them last year too and they turned out great! I'm so excited to get them edited and get our cards ordered!<br /><br />*This last Sunday was my niece Sloan's baptism. My sister and BIL asked if I'd be her Godmother and I was so honored! Hopefully I can get pictures uploaded this week. She wore the baptismal gown that all 4 of us kids wore (even my brothers). She looked darling! <br /><br />*I'm SO excited for Thanksgiving and Christmas! I want to decorate for Christmas RIGHT NOW but Tommy put his foot down and said that it's not appropriate till after Thanksgiving. I had my pout session, but I'll deal. He did say, however, that if it happens to snow before next Thursday, that I could at least get out my stuff that's more 'wintery', like my snowmen and such. I did get some new decor for our tree and I'm so excited to get it all put together!<br /><br />*This coming Saturday, us Diva's are meeting at a local coffee shop for breakfast before we go to Chelsey's house to craft! We're making onsies for our girlfriend Melisa's bundle of joy, Delaney! She's due in December and will no doubt be an absolute doll baby!<br /><br />I can't think of much more to gab about! I'm sure as the holidays get closer, I'll have much more to blog about!<br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-26645779503892150022010-10-14T14:55:00.003-05:002010-10-14T16:17:56.857-05:00Pumpkin Patch!We woke up to a beautiful, chilly Fall morning this morning and I decided to take Brogan to the pumpkin patch! We met our friends, Nib and her daughter Kenadie, there and they kids had SO much fun! We got pumpkins, apple cider slushes, rode the little train (mom's included), and jumped and jumped in hay! Brogan couldn't get enough of the hay bales! But he kept insisting on riding the train. So...we did. WE did. He wanted no part in riding alone so being the nice momma I am, I hopped in! The thing kept making squeaking sounds but the 'conductor' told me it was normal. Thank the Lord cause it almost gave me a complex!<br /><br />Here are a few pictures from our morning! We hope to go back this weekend or even try our a bigger patch close to here!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhPqohYZI/AAAAAAAABaA/DY85r9hxKNs/s1600/MissK.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhPqohYZI/AAAAAAAABaA/DY85r9hxKNs/s400/MissK.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527993989390754194" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhOvn03hI/AAAAAAAABZ4/sU5szcTc7Xw/s1600/PumpkinPatch2010.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhOvn03hI/AAAAAAAABZ4/sU5szcTc7Xw/s400/PumpkinPatch2010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527993973550145042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhOF1vrzI/AAAAAAAABZw/jc0pZV0d9-w/s1600/PP2010.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhOF1vrzI/AAAAAAAABZw/jc0pZV0d9-w/s400/PP2010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527993962334236466" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhNMIkATI/AAAAAAAABZo/5WD6Toe_yPo/s1600/HappyFall.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhNMIkATI/AAAAAAAABZo/5WD6Toe_yPo/s400/HappyFall.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527993946843906354" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhMkTgdYI/AAAAAAAABZg/s5vaJmZkkY8/s1600/Buddies.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TLdhMkTgdYI/AAAAAAAABZg/s5vaJmZkkY8/s400/Buddies.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527993936152393090" /></a><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-83212786751717368792010-10-08T10:25:00.004-05:002010-10-08T10:39:26.319-05:00Our Night With Baby Sloan!Last night I got to babysit my niece, Sloan, for the first time! I was slightly nervous because Tommy wasn't going to be home so it was just me, Brogan, and baby Sloan. We did GREAT! I only mildly panicked for a second when trying to figure out how to entertain a 2 month old who doesn't like to be put down for long AND how to do our normal bedtime routine. I had a genius idea and it worked! I quickly downloaded a noise machine app on to my phone (have I mentioned how much I'm in LOVE with my iPhone! It's a must have!) and set it on the oscillating fan noise. I put the phone in the pack-n-play with Sloan and got Brogan to sleep no problem! She just layed there quiet as can be, just listening. Thank. The. Good. Lord.<br /><br />She was a doll baby and my son was so gentle and loving with her! I was so relieved! Brogan LOVES to love on and give hugs, but he doesn't know his own strength most times and loves a little to hard. But like I said, he was gentle and very helpful. I'm hoping this is a sign that he'll be an amazing big brother when the time comes! <br /><br />Here are a few pictures I snapped with my phone last night. <br /><br />Sloan smiling at whatever Brogan was doing<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85pLBpw2I/AAAAAAAABZI/phVhXC7mMpo/s1600/66791_10150089825309175_502974174_6807378_3646106_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 298px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85pLBpw2I/AAAAAAAABZI/phVhXC7mMpo/s400/66791_10150089825309175_502974174_6807378_3646106_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525698647304029026" /></a><br /><br />Brogan LOVED turning the vibrate on and off...over and over and over....<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85o5cIQ1I/AAAAAAAABZA/ejQGMnKnDgU/s1600/63204_10150089825379175_502974174_6807379_2184194_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 298px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85o5cIQ1I/AAAAAAAABZA/ejQGMnKnDgU/s400/63204_10150089825379175_502974174_6807379_2184194_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525698642583241554" /></a><br /><br />Such a sweet baby!<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85pulQ2aI/AAAAAAAABZY/-5rKyY162qM/s1600/65890_10150089862224175_502974174_6807923_5122755_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 298px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85pulQ2aI/AAAAAAAABZY/-5rKyY162qM/s400/65890_10150089862224175_502974174_6807923_5122755_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525698656848632226" /></a><br /><br />Brogan helping again!<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85pcMIaiI/AAAAAAAABZQ/Z5LmkRd0Kx8/s1600/37184_10150089862119175_502974174_6807919_2973241_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 298px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK85pcMIaiI/AAAAAAAABZQ/Z5LmkRd0Kx8/s400/37184_10150089862119175_502974174_6807919_2973241_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525698651911383586" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804533532484048309.post-5410658575617404262010-10-07T12:38:00.003-05:002010-10-07T13:02:15.879-05:00Lately...There have been a lot of "life discussions" going on in the Guffey household lately and it's starting to stress me out. But I know God has a plan for us as a family, and individually, so I have to trust He'll take care of us! These are all good things we've been talking about but I tend to be antsy and want things to happen NOW. I've been praying for patience. Alot of our changes have to do with my hubbie and I know how stressed and worried he can get. He's an amazing man and I know he only wants what's best for us and our family. <br /><br />Brogan has been talking up a storm in the past couple weeks! He says something new each day and most of the time we have no idea what he's talking about! I just love how independent (sometimes...haha!) he's getting! It's amazing how their little brains work, isn't it? We've been trying to decide what he should be for Halloween...we have some options (thanks to our amazing and generous friends!) and I'm hoping we can narrow it down this weekend! I'm normally very on top of decisions like this but not this time I guess.<br /><br />I've been taking pictures left and right lately with the new lens Tommy got me for our anniversary! It's AMAZING! The zoom on it is ridiculous I totally feel like paparazzi when I use it! Ha! <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK4K2Q5os5I/AAAAAAAABY4/G6gT5Cl7h14/s1600/IMG_3747.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK4K2Q5os5I/AAAAAAAABY4/G6gT5Cl7h14/s400/IMG_3747.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525365720196101010" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK4K2H-WKOI/AAAAAAAABYw/WWP2BdBNKEo/s1600/IMG_3737.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK4K2H-WKOI/AAAAAAAABYw/WWP2BdBNKEo/s400/IMG_3737.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525365717799938274" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK4K14eNlyI/AAAAAAAABYo/iC-ISAp0S6I/s1600/IMG_3741.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wdJW_FHL4CE/TK4K14eNlyI/AAAAAAAABYo/iC-ISAp0S6I/s400/IMG_3741.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525365713638627106" /></a><br />I've had our house decorated for Fall since September and as much as I LOVE my decorations, I'm ready to take them down and get started on Christmas! I know, it's only October but I LOVE Christmas time in our house! They aren't over the top but I do tend to buy new things every year, whether we need them or not, so the house tends to fill up quick! One thing I have been thinking about is our tree. We got a new tree last year and it's a lot bigger than our previous tree. I do not have enough matching ornaments to fill the whole tree, especially after last year. A little boy who will remain nameless broke most of our 'nice' ones. CRAP. So, I'm trying to think of a color combo. I would kill to do something oober chic and girly, but I think my husband would nix that completely. We'll see what comes about....<br /><br />Today is my second day off this week and I've been so grateful to spend them with Brogan! I've wanted to be a SAHM for a while now so it was nice to sorta experience that. Tonight, I also get to experience what it would be like if we had an infant and a toddler. My sister is dropping off my niece, Sloan, so she can go to the KSU football game with my dad. I'll only have her for about 4 hours but I will be all by myself so this could get interesting! Brogan LOVES baby Sloan so I know he'll be more than excited; I just hope he's gentle! Hahaha! <br /><br />Today is also one of my very best friends birthday! We're celebrating Saturday by having a girls lunch at a local Italian restaurant! I'm super excited! Saturday night, we're going to celebrate some more with all our friends at Laughing Matters. It worked out that most everyone will be there either working, seeing the show, or in the show. Tommy and I always have the best time when we're there. We were lucky enough to get an overnight sitter for B so we can stay at the theatre and hang out after the show. <br /><br />Now that B is down for his nap, I'm going to finish watching my shows from last night and do some crafting! I've really gotten in to doing little things here and there! It's quite the stress reliever! <br /><br />Happy Thursday!<br /><br /><p><image class="centered"alt="post signature" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/frenzynae/lindseysignature.png" /></p>Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11901151616013821642noreply@blogger.com1
