hello to those who read…

from your….muchbetterthanthelasttwopostsfriend…..and from your….iwillneverhaveanotherstressfulweeklikethatoneagain…..and of course your…..ihadablastatthebeachblogger.

i think….not sure…but i think….we are finished toturing small children with parks that have fireants, corduroy & longsleeves in May & an unknown number of words that maybe they are not allowed to say that are guaranteed to make them smile!  …..i just edited all of the 2000 (as logan would say infinity & mia would say infinity much) pictures…. seriously…thanks to my DH…dinner was fixed, kids bathed & bedtime storied….so i got uninterrupted (kindof) time on the couch…with pc in lap…..

so a funny…..couple of outtakes….

also….
read about the shiner here…..

don’t look too close certainly…..

until then, all of my love!!!

hello to those who read…
what a precious time we are having….the camera goes to the beach today to be sure…meanwhile…we are trying to stay quiet as grandparents don’t have to get up this early….whatever we can do quietly sounds like a grand activity at the moment… paired with caffeine we are off to a great start…..
but i wanted you to meet somebody…

be still my heart…this little boy is scrumptious!!! there were tons of yummy littles in dothan….rovers included….but there is something about this one…..
be back soon!

all of my love!!

hello to those who still read…
when my favorite blogs don’t post it is incredibly dissappointing!! i am not sure if you read here often (lurkers….ummmmmhhhhmmmmm)….but i don’t think i have even darkened the backend of my blog for awhile…other than to post the sale!

sale? you ask!? how did it go!?! thank you to all who ordered, called, emailed, or came…..i am so incredibly blessed by your reaction!! You may see it as a great way to get some clothes quickly for cheaper than usual…..i see it as an answered prayer and confirmation for what i do…..thank you from the bottom of my heart….

(insert…don’t feel sorry for me here just being honest….) i asked God to handle last week in totality….all the details and he did…but a little more happened while trying to work & do life….2 kids with strep, i had strep (massive fever)…..2 end of the year parties…the usual household chores…a couple of photoshoots, a bank meeting (stressful) and a migraine, my first one, that i know was a result of an overscheduled week… so 2 shots, 2 migraine pills, more than one sweet friend helping me get to the urgent clinic and my parents swooping in to help… baseball party, last game, & a scheduled service project…

so this week….we are headed to the beach….but along the way a little stop….

my picture deadline for the catalog is this week…today…so i am headed to Dothan….the stickler household and landmark park for pictures….i can’t wait to see Darby and finish taking the pictures for the Fall catalog!!

so with camera in tow….i will be here again soon with an update and a sneak peak!! …i am determined to get the remaining catalog pictures and ones of my kids for this year at the beach…..

so for now…..

all of my love to my people…..

hello to those who read…

SALE!! this week….scroll to the next post to get the link and info…..

i am praying for five industrial size racks to be empty i mean…um for all of you to get exactly the pieces your would like to have for a sale price …for spring cleaning purposes…we love empty racks only when it is time…the most wonderful part is that we get to start something new….fall is on the way and a sneak peak is coming your way soon….6 new patterns (YUP 6) and a bunch of fun things…all new appliques of course with a super fun new girl idea mixed with a fresh look at dressing your boys…lemme know (or better yet email amelia@blessednames.com if you would like to clothes to be UPS MAN delivered to your home so that you can earn free clothes)

but meanwhile…we have been living at the ballpark it seems…not complaining…it might be one of my favorite things…

however, i am pretty sure logan grew up this week right before my very eyes…i am certain he at least got tons “older”… the way he handled his baseball bag and mingled with friends…

i know he might look little to you…but he grew up for sure this week….in addition he had a little procedure…. watch this…..
sleepy…but ready…to be brave and tough…

and then….he grew up just a little more…

we teach boys to be strong, brave, and a little tough with an incredibly soft heart for things of Christ….so, as i sat outside the door (little did he know) watching him do exactly that… he gave God the glory for his answered prayers…”it just wasn’t that bad”….

what a precious heart he has…even though he is a little older now…or should i say…now that he is a little older….whatever the case….i am grateful this week happened…but the best part is that i noticed, and that i didn’t miss it…

until next time….
all of my love to my people…
