Keeping Busy

First off I would like to thank everyone for the comments of encouragement and also I am glad I was able to help a few people out there that needed to hear that they were not alone and there are ways to get help. I definitely feel a lot better knowing people have gone through similar things as me and I am not crazy just need some adjusting. Things are going good I have had a few bad days lately but with Moss help and remembering what people have said I have gotten through them. My dear friend Kristi gave me a awesome book and cd. I turn on the cd when I need a little pick me up and it is amazing what it does to me. I had forgotten how much I love good wholesome music and how it effects me in such a positive way. Thanks for the reminder Kristi!

I have been in the mood to do a lot of projects lately which is a good sign so here are some of out latest. I have been putting off doing the extra shelf in my pantry because I wasn't too confident in my skills when it was going to be holding up important stuff. I finally got brave and went to work. Moss helped a little bit but for the most part I did it all by myself. It made me feel good:)

Next we started on doing some of the plants in the back yard. Moss has been working at night more often so the bud and I have to find something to keep up busy. I am now an expert at drip systems and digging holes in really hard ground. Here is the result...we will fill it in with gravel eventually.

The most fun thing I have done recently it taken the time to have some me time and get my hair done. I wanted something drastic and I got exactly what I wanted. I LOVE it! Moss says I am officially a Mom with short hair but a cute Mom so it's all good. Amanda Visser did it and it was so fun to chat with her and watch her work her magic. I highly recommend going to her at Fancy Hair.

Brenden has been busy learning to copy pretty much everything I do from putting on my makeup (which Moss isn't so sure about) to wanted to help with everything. He recently helped mop the floor...

But he eventually gets tired and will just conk out at random which I think is so so cute!
