And the winner is...

RYAN NEWMAN!!! Finally, he has broken his losing streak of 81 losses. What better race to do it with than the Daytona 500? Yes! We are back in action. And how about Sam Hornish Jr. finishing in 15th? Not too bad for a rookie. I am so excited to see that Hornish Jr. has made it to the big leagues now that he has "mastered" the IRL. I have a vested interest in the boy for the mere fact that he calls Defiance, Ohio home and that's where I called home for three years. I graduated from college at Defiance College and that is where Chris and I lived for the first 2 1/2 years of our marriage. My first house is in Defiance. I loved living in Defiance. :) Happy memories...but I diverge from the topic. Way to go Newman! Way to go Hornish Jr! I'm looking forward to an awesome year in Nascar.

Scrap Bribing

Ok...so totally liking what Iowa Geek has for her scrap bribing this month. Check the link out that I put at the bottom of this post and leave a comment for a chance to enter. Leave my name in the comment (I thank you if you choose to do so) and I get another chance to win. Post about the bribe on your site and get people to leave your name and you get extra chances to win. Take a look and enjoy my fellow scrap bookers.

Thank You An Iowa Mom

An Iowa Mom posted earlier this week about an $8.98 sale at Steve and Barry's. So, I decided to see if I could find some jeans that fit...I am SO sick of wearing maternity. I found two pair my size. YES!!! I have actual jeans again.

All Packed Up

 

She is so cute all bundled up for the cold weather. I'm still ready for the warm weather though. I bet she'll be just as cute without being all bundled up.

Just for Grandma

 

Here she is with all of her clothes on. She's actually kept them on all day. This is a feat!

In the Waiting

When Chris and I built in Indiana, we had an AWESOME builder! If we could have brought her with us here and had her build for us again...we would have. Unfortunately, that wasn't a posibility. So, we have been waiting and waiting to see this magical house appear. It hasn't! We both are so frustrated and just want this to be done with. So, on my way to bunco tonight, when I heard this song, I knew that God meant it JUST FOR US! I'm sure that some of you have things going on in your life that you could feel like this song is JUST FOR YOU too. Without further ado, here is FFH with "In the Waiting".

Ultimate Blog Party...Again!

I had a blast at last years blog party. So, when I found that 5 Minutes for Mom was hosting another one, I have already decided that I am going to be there. I met a few of my friends...Alexis and Val...through the blog party. Anyway, I hope you join the fun this year and take a few minutes to cruise through some of the blogs. March 7 to March 14 are the dates.

Here is the site to visit to get more info: http://www.5minutesformom.com/2938/ubp-08-instructions/

Who's Who?

Which one is Grace and which one is Libby?

It's been up long enough. Libby is in the top picture with daddy and Grace is in the bottom picture.

On Her Own

Libby has a new mode of transportation and a new house all of her own. Here's a few videos of her independence.

Sleepy Heads

Can you tell who's faking in the middle picture?
