La Bella Vista

I am a recent college graduate but have chosen to primarily be a stay at home mom for now. I do work part time but thankfully my wonderful husband is able to keep my beautiful Little Bit. I have 2 cats whom I love VERY much!

things


sometimes i get to thinking about things. here are 2 of them:
everytime i reach for little bit, no matter what she's playing with, she immediately drops it and reaches for me. i wonder if she thinks of each time i hold her as an adventure and she just can't wait to see where we're going next.

the things that we are doing right now are going to affect our kids from now until forever. if our kids end up in therapy, it'll probably be a result of something we did or did not do. how scary is that? anyone watch the real world? paula has a lot of issues and said that some of them stemmed from her childhood. that's scary! i know i have a need to fix everybody's problems and have been told it is a result of not being able to fix my parents' divorce when i was a child.

we're going to look at a house tonight at 6pm. we looked at one last night but it was only 1100 sq ft and on the upper end of our price range. the reason is b/c it came with all stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors, ceramic tile in the bathrooms, marble tile in the kitchen, and a 16x20 shop. it was a cute house that needed some yard work and landscaping but kinda high for 1100 sq ft. we don't want much bigger than that (about 1300-1500 would be ideal) but i know we can get a house for a better price than that. the one we are looking at today is 1330 sq ft, in a nice area (good schools), looks like it has at least a partial basement (which i love b/c i hate bad weather), 3br/2bth, hardwood floors/ceramic tile/carpet (new a year and a half ago) so i'm excited. b liked it (from the outside), i like it, and i'm sure little bit will (except for those hard floors on her little knees) so if we like it from the inside and all goes well with selling this place, then we'll probably put an offer on it.

here are some new videos. little bit now spits...nonstop :) and yes, she is growling in parts of it (she also does that nonstop). she also went swimming in my parents' pool for the first time this weekend...speaking of that...we had just gotten in (barely gotten wet) and we heard a HUGE crash from around the circle and then LOUD SCREAMING so we all jumped out, my husband took off running, my step dad jumped in the truck and come to find out, some kids from around the block had been riding in their golf cart (which they do ALL the time) and flipped it. there were 5 of them on it, thankfully they were all ok. the oldest one lost the front ends of his 2 big toes but the rest of them were just kinda banged up. anyway, VERY scary to hear a crash and then screaming like that.

Missed you today, you probably needed the rest though after last night and this morning with AnaGrace keeping you up. I sure hope things work out for your housing situation. I have been praying it will. Crazy about that golf cart crash, those things with kids are dangerous. Hope to see you soon. Blessings!

Little Bit is so cute!!

You are right; the thought that everything we do affects our children is such an overwhelming and sometimes scary thought! I always pray I'm doing the right thing.

Good luck with the house hunting. I hope you find just what you are looking for!
