Virtual Hallelujah Choir

This is a pretty sweet video of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir joined by virtual singers.  Its pretty awesome for me to see a fell blogger and friend Jenna from Mom, the Intern, singing with them too!

 Sounds amazing and perfect for getting in the Easter mood.

Its March!?

Seriously how it is already so far into March!! I am glad the days are going by fast, but I do like to enjoy the month of March.  So many wonderful things happen in march!

Camden's birthday. He turned 3 on the 1st! Three people THREE!! He is just so much fun and love seeing his sweet and crazy personality grow.  He makes the best faces, cracks his own little jokes, has a huge imagination and loves so fiercely.

Baby will be showing up any day now.  We've been hoping sooner than later, but obviously I know a thing or two about delivery at 40 weeks or more so its not surprising baby boy is sittin pretty, and loving the womb.  We are all getting very excited for his arrival and I can't wait to see what he looks like.  His profile looks very similar to Camden's. Guess we'll see. :)


Spring break!!  Kids have two weeks off of school starting the 14th!  Its going to be nice to get to spend time with them, but also its gonna be a little crazy having all the kids home right when baby come too, but i'm glad it will give the kids time to bond with their littlest brother.

Easter is in March this year too.  I love Easter.  I won't be attending in get together's this year, but still it's the best anyway and I just love it so much.

Oh and I guess my birthday is in March as well.  Turning 29 this year, aka: Saturn's return. Only one year left before i reach 30.  It will be so great to get out of my 20's! I've been looking forward to it! Seriously no sarcasm here i'm actually excited about it.

My next post should be more on the exciting side so stay tuned for that.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna I go pray for labor to start and wanting pain to be inflicted on me so I can hold my sweet baby soon.

The breakdown

The other day I found myself feeling just terrible.

This last year has been an emotional roller coaster. So many changes good and bad, so many emotions floating around.

It all came to a peak then came crashing down.

I found myself in the pantry picking out food to make for dinner and I was just a complete mess.  I just couldn't face anything or any one.  I didn't want to leave the room and go back to reality, I just wanted to stay in the pantry and be alone.



I've been able to keep my emotions in check but it was just all too much.  I'm really surprised I kept it together for so long.  I've been on the verge of collapse for quite some time now.

After a good 20 minutes of self loathing, I felt so much better.  Being able to get all my frustrations, sadness, and anger out was everything I needed and more to get through these last couple weeks before baby boy makes his appearance. And honestly it was so necessary for me, because I know if I still had everything bottled up I would not be able to make it through labor with all that extra weight on my shoulders.

Just so you all know, I'm human.  I can keep my emotions in check fairly well, but not the best thing sometimes for me, and I forget about that.  I need to embrace and let things go far more often than I do now.

I have so many more responsibilities right now in my life and if I'm going to be able to make it through adding one more thing (my sweet baby) in my life I'm really going to have to take a lot of mental health check ups.  A check up from the neck up.

Knowing that I have my husband next to me as my support system makes things so much better too.


Thanks for reading friends.
