About Me

My photo
My name is Emily. I am 33 years old and a very happy individual. My husband and best friend of the past 13 years is Keith. Together we have two perfect children (non-biased of course), Sarah 9, and Ethan 5. My greatest pleasure on Earth is spending all of my time with these three people (no joke). The newest member of our family is of the four-legged variety, our pup Belle! Things at my house are never dull.

They are only little once...

Parenting is really not fair. Why can't we be parents to little ones and have all of the time in the world to enjoy them. My kids are adorable and they say the funniest things, but my life right now is so hectic, I don't have the time to take it all in. You go to sleep one night and they are 18 mos. and you wake up and they are starting school. Before you know it, they will be wanting to borrow the keys to the car, and to be perfectly honest, I don't really know how to feel about that. My first born is 7, which is still young, but it was only yesterday that I was cradling her in my arms. How can she be in the first grade? It isn't possible.

Before I had children I was going to scrapbook everything and keep a journal of all of the hilarious things that they say on a daily basis. Yeah right, I don't even have their baby books complete. There is a long list of things I said that I would do once I had baby, and I don't think any of them are completed. I just try to soak them in everyday and make as many memories as possible.

I don't have time to scrapbook at all. It takes so much time and money. But that's why I have my blog. [Though I've been absent a lot lately.]

Its a great way to show off pictures and record memories. And its so easy and fast.
