Just a few moments of bliss

I have recently started school, have a part time job, and enrolled in institute. This schedule during the week leaves me with only minimal time with Carver, something neither of us enjoy PERIOD. The only benefit coming from any of this is the fact that I'm securing a financially better future for my son, who, deserves everything I could possible give to him. Emotionally, Mentally, and yes, Financially. We will get through these next two years and then my beautiful baby, we will have more time together, mommy promises.

Whatever happened to privacy?

Well, Tonight I was planning on turning in early because I have work in the morning. Well, Carver, Logan, and Roxie had a different idea. It was called climbing into my bed and giggling like little school girls. (yes, I really did get out of bed just to blog about this. The pictures are THAT cute.)

Carver and Logan giggling about something and Roxie is, well, sleeping.

Logan trying to get kisses from Carver. Carver nicely smacks her in the face. And Roxie is well, sleeping still.

They all are kinda cute!

Now, Roxie woke up on this part. Carver was suddenly very interested with how close she was to him and that doesn't always end good for poor lil Rox.

But this time, it did :)

Carver very gently just stroked her, how cute that my little boy knew how to sweetly pet his pup!! It just shows me how big he is getting!

And then, Logan started playing Carvers favorite game that him and mom started. If you put the bink in your mouth backwards, he thinks its SO funny and will sit there and try to take it out of your mouth with his. I will have to get a video of it because its seriously hilarious.

Of course Logan teased him!

Almost.....

So close.....

Success!!!



It's nights like these that I truly treasure.


Until my alarm goes off.

goodnight!

Sneaky Sneaky, Narrated by Carver Searle


"Mom, please please let me back there by the computer! PLEASE!"

"Wait, idea!!!"

"I'll just climb on the desk to get to you!"

"Be there in like 2 seconds"

"Just one more second..."

"Ok just like, TWO more seconds"

"PICK ME UP NOOOOW!"

"PLEASE pick me up!"

"PLEAA....hey whats that"

"Oh that is most definitely something I want"

"Oh, hey mom... what are you doing here? I was just... you know... coming to say hi."


"Now if you would please excuse me, I have a meeting with that pencil right there."



(no harm or injury was done to the pencils in this story)

SO grounded. You know who you are.

The other day somebody volunteered to take Carver shopping with them to give me a little break. Of course I said yes and was quite pleased with the arrangement until they came home.


This person (who may or may not be the mother of Carver's mother) bought him a huge giant sucker in the shape of a rock sign. Pretty sure you don't have to ask what color.


Obviously, Carver didn't seem to mind the arrangement either.


The culprit may or may not have been made to clean up Mr. sweet tooth here all by themselves.


Crimney people.

Night time cuteness

When I went to go to bed the other night this is how I found Mr. Carver:


Seriously. How CUTE can a kid get?!

I want to squeeze those little cheeks 24/7. And no, I'm not over-exaggerating!

Seriously. Adorable. :)


I am one EXTREMELY blessed woman to be able to raise such a beautiful child!

A Little Bit Stronger

       Woke up late today and I still feel the sting of the pain
But I brushed my teeth anyway
I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face
I got a little bit stronger


  Riding in the car to work and I'm trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for minute but I changed it
I'm getting a little bit stronger, just a little bit stronger

And I'm done hoping that we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change


I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger


Doesn't happen overnight but you turn around
And a month's gone by and you realize you haven't cried
I'm not giving you a hour or a second or another minute longer
I'm busy getting stronger


 
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
