It's my birthday! As of midnight this morning, I am 25. Half way to 50, as my sister reminds me ;) But that's okay. It's gonna be an awesome year. Today has been low-key. M over-spoiled me with a cruiser bicycle and a CHI flat iron. We had lunch at Chic-Fil-A then picked up dinner supplies at Walmart....

I guess my 24th year is going out with a bang. I turn 25 in 6 days. 3 of those will be spent bunkering down in the house during this major hurricane. A lot of evacuations are happening on the east coast of North Carolina. So far, we don't have one in my town and until we do, we're sticking it out....

Today... Was not a great day.I am exhausted. Mentally and physically. Lia did really good at her ophthalmology appointment. And, she got 2 lollipops (her first ever). Gotta do what you gotta do! I did absolutely nothing good for my body/diet. But I did wear a cute shirt and my new Lisa Leonard earrings....

Yesterday, M and I were butting heads. Just annoying each other a bit. We hopped in the car a few hours later to run some errands and the clouds outside were dark and dreary. Like us. I was driving along, thinking about how much I love when the weather matches my mood. And when mother nature let go...

 I wrote this last night, scheduled it to post this morning at 9 AM. Instead, it posted late last night and deleted itself from my blog (but not Google reader) at some point between then and now. Thanks, blogger.                                                                                   ...

...was SO much better than this Friday night. This one pretty much blows. Went to work early. Got off late. Spent money on dinner out that was no good and got food thrown on me by my toddler who wanted nothing to do with sitting still. Cable/Internet has been off and on for days. Company sucks and...

Lia loves digging through my bags to find snacks. The other morning, when we were hanging out in bed, she found yogurt and a spoon. It turned into breakfast in bed. Big brown eyes. Chubby hands. Baby feet. Silly yogurt-covered faces.  I live for the little, sweet moments in life....

My babe turned 19 months last week. It's getting to the point where she's looking more like a kid than a baby. I love it and I hate it. L- You are such an amazing little girl. I love seeing your personality develop and see who you are. You are so independent. In the past couple months, you've...

Friday nights used to mean relaxing. And dates. Oh, the dates. I love date nights. Even in pre-Lia times, date nights were special. There's just something about setting aside time and making a point to spend it with a special someone. These days, I always have a date. With a toddler! Our Friday nights...

I actually made dinner tonight. As opposed to our weeks of eating take-out, fast food and Kraft mac & cheese lately. I like to cook in my own kitchen...not so much others. But, we've been spending a lot of money on food and it's getting old. I crave a full bank account and yummy homemade dinners....

I am tired! It's been a very busy morning/afternoon for us. I, being so smart, stayed up until 1 AM watching The Bachelorette. Smart, right? I thought she was going to pick JP - I just hope it isn't a disaster like most of them end up as. Then, we had a busy morning of things to do and places to go....
