Five on Friday

ONE

How about this post?  I haven't been able to do any real blogging lately.  The only thing I've kept up with is my So What Wednesday posts.  I've just been so busy these past few weeks.  Hopefully I'll be able to start blogging and reading regularly again soon.  
 
TWO

We are almost 100% moved into our  new house.  I have been working like crazy to get everything unpacked and organized but that's been hard with the two kiddos up my butt every second of every day.  The shitty part about not selling your home is that you don't feel any urgency to really move out of it.  We are renting our old house to a friend and he doesn't move in for another week.

We are hoping to get everything out of the house and have it all cleaned for him this weekend.  Then we will be all moved out.  Now we just have to organize everything.  I can't believe how much crap we had in that little house.  We are filling up the new house very quickly!

This little giraffe has been a big hit in our house so far.  The only problem with her is that the kids fight over her.  The little guy likes to chew on her but Ashlyn wants to play with her too.  Why?  Because it's a new toy and it's for her brother and she wants it.  Lesson learned.
 
 
 
FOUR
 
Let me just pat myself on the back for making my own baby food.  I finally started doing it and it rocks!  It was so much easier than I thought it would be.  I started off with apples and sweet potatoes because they seemed easy.  The little guy gobbled up the applesauce so I guess I did ok. 
 
I can't wait to make more.  And all of the stress over a dam blender?  I got an Oster blender from Wal-Mart for $25.00 and the thing is awesome.  
 
 
 
FIVE
 
We got a lot of gift cards for Christmas and they were just sitting here not being used.  I finally sat down and ordered some things.  Some outfits for the little guy from Old Navy and Kohls since he's already wearing 9 and 12 month clothing, a new comforter set from Boscov's, a new camera for the monitor system and some more clothes for the little guy from Target.  And now we wait for it all to arrive.

    YAY! So happy the food worked out and was easy to execute. LOL that the teether has become a quick favorite. Ashyln knows whats good. I bet Chunk has a lot of clothes he didn't get a chance to wear because he grew so fast like a good little baby. As long as you keep up with your so what wednesday's and friday letters, I'm okay with whenever you login and blog :]

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

Big News!

We have been trying very hard to keep this to ourselves for just a little while longer but I can't wait anymore!    Baby Miller #2...due 09/01/13!!!!!!!!! I am 8 weeks and 1 day I have known since Christmas Eve I am much more tired and much more nauseous this time around I haven't gained a single pound yet, unlike last time I am not so secretly hoping it's another girl If this one is anything like Baby Girl, he or she will be born mid-August I've been leaving hints all over the place but no one noticed! I am so excited!   I've already had one doctor's appointment but I was only 7 weeks so there wasn't much to do.  We couldn't hear the heartbeat or anything so the next appointment will be much more exciting!  My next appointment isn't until February 11th so that's when I'll get to hear and possibly see my next little monster!  So exciting!   PS:  Notice the blog title?!
