Almost famous

so my mom’s “step-son”(in quotes for a reason.  if you want to know ask via email and I’ll share) is on his way to becoming a famous SuperModel.  He’s 18 I believe and has been given this crazy opportunity.  Check out his pics if you are interested.  www.newyorkmodelmanagement.com  go to new faces men and then [...]

Pearl of a Day

So today did not begin well.  Grace was disobeying everything and I mean EVERYTHING from the get go.  Becca had a dr’s appointment today at 9:00 for her nine month check up so we had to be out the door early and Grace was just being so difficult.  I mean, why should I have to [...]

Sunday

Sunday morning are the best.  We have a no tv rule for Sunday morning so it’s nice and quiet and I love it that way.  Grace usually gets up and watches sesame street in the mornings while I’m still trying to pry myself out of bed.  Heehee…I’m not always much of a morning person.  So [...]

Weekend Adventures

It’s been a while.  I’m not sure if anything to exciting that is blog worthy has happened but I’ll fill you all in on what’s been going on.
Grace is being more obedient, which is great.  She is learning that mommy isn’t going to allow her to get away with the stuff anymore.  I love watching her [...]

Training her up

My sweet older daughter has a bit of a stong will.  I’ve been feeling lately that I haven’t done well in training her up and then disciplining.  Thankfully she is still not yet 3 years so I think she’s young enough to “start over”.  I’ve been praying for wisdom in how to train her as [...]

class

Fun Memories from Spring Break and Easter

This is a family picture from Easter in New Jersey with Rich’s mom’s family.  There were 4 generations all together in one room!  We had a great time!

Grace had lots of fun finding eggs with the other little girls.  Notice her winter jacket?  It was colder on Easter than it was on Christmas Day!

Grace had [...]

driving fun

I absolutely love this picture of Grace.  Thanks for taking it Jamie!

I can’t believe it’s still there

and yet I think I should believe it!  I just discovered my old blog from 2 years ago when Grace was about the age that Becca is now.  How strange is that!?  If you are curious about what I was like then go ahead and check it out www.xanga.com/jessandrews   Those of you who know me [...]
