Really Really Important Things

Well the most important of the important things to start us off…you guys, I ate a multi vitamin yesterday.  It was a woman’s gummy…and I gagged.  My cousin Rebecca loves them and says I’ll learn to love them too, but it made me gag…multiple times as I chewed it.  A gummy vitamin!!!!  Today I am going to just swallow it whole.  Gagging averted.

I know May the 4th was Star Wars Day, but maybe more importantly than it being Star Wars Day it was also Mumford & Sons release day for Wilder Mind.  Oh man, oh man.  It’s good.  Real good.  I ran my heart out yesterday morning to their sweet new sound accompanying me the whole time.  It was magical.

Also, yesterday was National Cookie Dough Day.  Nah.  But it should have been because I was a cookie making machine for teacher appreciation and self appreciation.  I ate spoonful after spoonful while patting myself on the back.  Good times.

We had chili yesterday for dinner and it’s in the 70s around these parts.  Send help.  #stuckinadinnerrut

Amon said he needed to potty.  Then proceeded with “I do it myself.  You stay!” Raising his hand like a crossing guard to halt me from leaving the table.  He also told me after school, “Look at my picture.  It’s cool.”  Whaaaattt?!?!?!  He can’t tell me things are cool…he doesn’t even know what cool is.  And he’s getting a haircut Friday.  He has the finest hair in all the land and needs regular visits to get it cut because it grows fast and wild and large.

Do any of you mother’s out there never realize your kids have out grown their shoes because they put their own shoes on and then one day realize they have waaaaaayyyy out grown their shoes, but are still cramming their feet in said shoes?!?!?!  Yeah, me neither.  But if this ever did happen and I found these shoes at Target and actually remembered what size shoes the boys wore I would totally buy them and end this shoe saga.  Shoe saga continues…

I love how Pinterest recommends pins for you now.  They usually pretty much nail what I’m looking for…desserts or HIIT treadmill runskind of an oxymoron…but the other day they recommended a “Gentle 1st Postpartum Workout”…I even wrote it down for accuracy and then I laughed.

I have officially unofficially purchased 83 bags of this stuff.  If you know me at all I will eventually gift you with this.  I want to eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Clearly I have nothing whatsoever resembling a popcorn problem.

And I’ll leave you with this…Josh Kelley trying to figure out how to knit…to show Harper…because I couldn’t get past step one…and now we’re sending her off to her grandmother’s house because Nene actually knows how to knit and we might have wanted to punch the knitting kit in the face. #thankscourtney

Happy Wednesday!

    I love your blog and your heart for Jesus! Just wanted to say that the yarn in that knitting kit is the WORST to learn with. Get some non-fuzzy yarn and it will be much easier!

  2. At 7&8 I hope my boys would tell me if their shoes are too tight but I know I still would not get told right away! Knitting and I don’t get along either…
