Also Known as “Mom”

I am so proud of this silly little banner I made… It’s for a board that I am an admin on with some really good friends. I wish we could get more mommas in the midwest states there but I have to remind myself in due time. We are just a bunch of friends who have known each other for over 3 years now, I hope people see how close we are and want to keep the drama away and build meaningful relationships with us. I hope and pray that we can continue down that path.

So this site is just another meme that is dead. So I think I’m going to give up on a Monday meme LOL. No sense trying to find another one that leads to no where!!! Guess I’ll think of something of my own.

I recently started entering blog giveaways and I even have talked about 2 giveaways from a site called The Opinionated Parent. Out of the maybe 40 giveaways I’ve entered there were only 2 (both were from ) I really wanted to win. And guess what…. I won one of them!!!This is what I won:

It’s a Littlest Pet Shop Virtual Pet (Alot like a Webkinz) I am so excited because now I’m done birthday shopping for Maddie’s birthday

My little Man tunred 8 months on Sunday so today’s Wordless Wednesday is for him!!! This is by far my most favorite picture of him ever.

Today’s Funny monday Theme was Lawyer Humor!!! So I had nothing in my own brain to share but we can all enjoy a quick and funny joke now can’t we?

A client who felt his legal bill was too high asked his lawyer to itemize costs. The statement included this item: “Was walking down the street and saw you on the other side. Walked to the corner to cross at the light, crossed the street and walked quickly to catch up with you. Got close and saw it wasn’t you. -$50.00.”

Well I went to start this for real this week and apparently the site that does Mana’o Monday doesn’t post a new word every week. That will not work for me so I’ve decided to find a new meme for my Monday’s!!!

I am now going to do funny Monday where a theme is given and I’ll share a funny video, funny joke, funny picture, funny poem, funny comic, funny animation or funny story that represents the theme for the week.

It’s Maddie’s beach picture to be in spotlight… it talks for itself.

So I introduce Mana’o Monday and I was planning on starting Monday, then I never did it DOH… I still plan to do it and get it up. Hopefully today before I do my Wordless Wednesday post LOL

Today I am going to start a new thing called Mana’o Monday.

“Mana’o Monday is a weekly writing challenge. We all have our own stories, but sometimes we get writer’s block or just can’t pull up those interesting stories that lie within us.” I will be given one word or a pharse that can trigger a memory or thought that I will write on. “Mana’o is the Hawaiian word for thought, idea, belief, opinion, and meaning. It’s the perfect word for a sharing theme.”

Yesterday was a rollercoaster of emotion…. I thought that right now I’d be shouting from the mountain top of the joy of a new puppy in our home. But instead I’ve broken my girls hearts and the puppy is back at the rescue foster home

The puppy we found was at Petco yesterday morning and he was 10 weeks old. He was so beautiful and we fell in love instantly. We brought him home and at first it was going great until we turned our heads for 2 seconds and we found him on top of Logan thinking they were littermates. He did not scare or even hurt Logan at all and at first it was kinda of cute funny. But the more he played near Logan the more we realized he thought that Logan was a littermate and not a baby. This scared me huge time and made me realize that even though he was perfect for our family and even almost house trained the timing might be off by 6 months. So I called the lady that we got him from and asked what we could/should do. The decision came down to the big what if I turned my back because Allie is almost potty trained but stills needs the occasional run me to the potty so I can make it and Logan got hurt on complete accident because of the innocent puppy how would I feel then. I was heartbroken with how I realized how it made me feel because I know that if we had found Teddy 6 months later we would have a best friend for life.

We took Teddy back and we really need some prayers for some healing right now because we are all hurting because he stole our hearts and the thought of him not in our home is killing me.
