♥ Tiny Little Love of My Life ♥

                      Mom Alexis

Can I tell you JUST how much I love my little angel baby Alexis Caroline?! Oh my gosh.. she is just the tiny little love of my life!! Every single day I am so thankful for her… just when I think I couldn’t possibly love her any more… I DO!

Her personality is absolutely amazing… she is so happy, goofy, loving, smiley and giggly… I just can’t get enough of her!! No matter what sort of mood I’m in she can ALWAYS make me smile… I can’t even look at her without smiling and telling her how cute she is or how much I love her!! Pretty much all day (whether I’m walking around the house, in the shower, cooking dinner, driving in the car… well… basically 24/7) I am singing songs about Alexis and how cute she is and how much I love her and stuff… she loves them! Sometimes I find myself doing it even if she is sleeping, or isn’t even around at all! haha… I find that I’m more like my OWN mom every day!

She sure does love her big brother and sister too… all they have to do is walk in the room and she thinks its hysterical!! They love to get her giggling so hard she can barely breathe… its the cutest thing in the world! Nothing melts my heart more than to hear ALL my kids laughing together… its like getting a little glimpse of heaven or something! I know that sounds corny, but I’m serious… it makes my heart smile! :)

She makes people happy just by being around… when we go to the store EVERY person we walk by either has to smile at her, stop and look, or have a conversation with me/her over how adorable she is – her beautiful smile – and her BIG amazing eyes! She gets more attention than any baby I have ever seen in my life… I’m flattered that everyone finds her so gorgeous, but it makes for accomplishing anything very difficult! haha…

One of the most beautiful things I have seen is the way my Grandpa looks at her. The last time we went to visit them Alexis was a little bit attached to mommy… but that didn’t make Grandpa any less THRILLED to see her! Every time I looked at him he was just staring at Alexis with a perma-grin on his face… even when she was being crabby or just sleeping! I could see that just being in her presence totally made his day… week… or maybe month for that matter!! I can’t remember the last time I saw my Grandpa smile that much… its been years… and its something I will NEVER forget!!

She truly is the light of my life and I don’t know what I would do without her… I don’t know what I did BEFORE her for that matter!

What a wonderful

gift from God my 

Alexis Caroline is!


4 1/2 Years?! ♥ HOLY COW! ♥

                   Jamie and Jason Together 4 1_2 years TODAY... Married 2 years this month!!

Can you believe that Jason and I have been together for exactly 4 1/2 years today?! That just sort of blows my mind! lol… then on the 23rd of this month it will be our 2 year wedding anniversary!! Wow!! A few years ago I NEVER would have pictured myself married with three kids… its crazy how life changes so much in a short amount of time!!

I’m happy with my life… and although there are some things that haven’t worked out the way I wish they would have, I definitely wouldn’t change anything because then I wouldn’t be who I am, be where I am, or have what/who i have today!! I wouldn’t be the down to earth, light hearted, caring, loving mom/wife that I am… I wouldn’t have a wonderful husband who, although may be a… well… “guy” sometimes, loves me exactly the way I am and would do anything for his family… i wouldn’t have two wonderful kids that just happened to “fall in my lap” but have definitely been the light of my life for the last 4 1/2 years… and I wouldn’t have my little angel baby girlfriend Alexis – the tiny little love of my life! ♥

Although I wasn’t expecting the kids to be here this weekend (for valentines day) I’m actually glad they will be!! I can’t remember when me and Jason have spent a valentines day alone… and you know what, I don’t even mind! Yeah, the day is supposed to be about romance and doing sweet things with your significant other… but its also about love! I couldn’t think of a better way to spend the most lovey dovey day of the year than with all the people I love the most… my family! ♥
