Really?

Okay so when I was dreaming up my blog in the shower (funny how I do my best thinking there) I had a great name. It fit what direction I wanted to take my  blog in. My blog was Fitting It All In. Why? Because I was going to tell you how I was getting in shape, while raising 4 kids. It would include all the crafts I do, meals I cook, and things I do with the kids. See how this name fits so much better? I mean I REALLY liked this title.
So two days later I tell myself don't put it off just freaking start the blog. See I am a very talented procrastinator. When I say this I mean really talented, I can do just about anything in less than 24hours. So I sat down at the computer after a full day with my children and set up my blog. So I go to give it a name, Fitting It All In, TAKEN says blogger. Really someone had my perfect blog name? Well it has bothered me in these last two weeks (almost 3 can you believe I have been sharing that long?) So today I decide, "let me check out this blog with my perfect name." I look up this blog today, ONE FREAKING POST, IN 2006!!!  This blog has been inactive for more than 5 years, and at that this person's post is one sentence long. Now I realize they could make it so the public does not see their blog, but really I want to share. Yes I am having a pity party at noon on a Friday over a blog name.
I will share anyways here how I do fit it all in. All the love in everything I do, in everything my children do. I have one more full week in my current living situation, then a week of packing, then a week on vacation (seeing my family), and then I have Christmas with the loves of my life in our new home. I can't wait for the New Year. I hope to be able to share with those willing to listen how things go here.
Can I get my household binder going? Can I be able to work out on a regular basis? Will my meals be healthy and something everyone will eat? Will I get to run my 5K next year? Will I be able to save any money using coupons? You will only know if you read.

Family Pictures

Image
Alright so we are what is considered a big family these days. I am lucky and my photographer loves his subjects as my photographer is my father-in-law (FIL). I had him do some family pictures this month so we could have a cute Christmas card. Our problem is the kids are so young so half the time one or more kid is not looking at the camera and this is often the result. Okay so that is sort of cute. Let's see what else results from a large family. Okay this one is not so bad, other than the face. This is a little better, again so many people and under the lights it can get warm (yes he has professional lights and will have a studio this next year.) At this point. I was sure we were done. However me being mommy we continued on. I did get the shot I wanted. I won't share it, it wasn't perfect, in fact it was less than perfect, however it just screamed this is it. It reminds me of the kids picture with Santa last year, you know one of those moments you just ca

Christmas Crack?

Image
Okay so in January of 2009 I joined a cloth diaper board called Cloth Diaper Nation . I had just found out I was expecting my third child the summer before and after loosing a computer hard drive to Diaper Swappers 's viruses they were having trouble with at the time, I jumped ship for another place to get diapers. See with my second baby I decided I wanted to cloth diaper and just knew I would need loads more diapers after having my third child, and would now have two babies in diapers. I ended up finding the ladies of the board very interesting. I loved that there was no edit button and you had to own what you said there. What I did find strange was their chatter about crack. Heck they even ran a co-op of this crack. I didn't get it at first. I began to understand this was a candy of sorts. So I just pushed it off. So then Christmas came and they were unable to get the co-op run and there were many sad ladies. I again thought nothing of this crack. So this year I am introdu

I Survived

So a couple of months ago on Facebook I had a message from someone I went to middle school/high school with. We hung in the same circle of friends. We however we never really that close, always keeping each other at arms length. I can say she was more of my "bully" than friend. In this message she told me she was sorry. She realizes that her actions and words were harmful to me. She told me that what she did and said all those years ago were not the actions of a Christian that she thought she was. I cried, why, probably because it was the first time in over 15 years someone said they were sorry and meant it. I'm not perfect, I would be crazy to say I was. I come with battle scars. How I view myself is a result of YEARS of being bullied. I don't think I have even talked about how much it still effects my everyday life with my amazing husband. My self esteem is lacking, I have never felt pretty, I think I will always feel fat. This is damage that was done over YEARS of
