a little thing that's called life. (and crazy kids)

hello all!  It's been far too long since my last post and i have greatly missed blogging and all of you ladies!  my kids have kept my hands full over the past few months and i seriously have been struggling to find any time to myself.  when i do find free time, i just don't even want to think.  haha!  i'm sure you all understand, but i thought i'd explain it all in a nutshell :)

anyway... is everyone looking forward to the holidays?  dave's family will be down here for 10 days to celebrate Christmas with us again.  we always have such a wonderful time with them.  lots of laughs, relaxing and good food. 

this year i'm especially excited as it will be my baby boy's First Christmas!  not only that, but my little girl is 3 now, and she's at that age where she understands what's going on.  the other night, she found the present stash in my walk-in closet.  when i told her she had to wait to open presents till Christmas day, she started crying her cute little eyes out.  it was sad, but so awesome at the same time!  i love getting to see Christmas though her eyes!

okay, well i can't stay on much longer, but here's my kids Christmas picture:

  1. Oh Aimee, you've been greatly missed. Thanks for popping back and sharing some thoughts with us. Your kids are wonderful and I can totally see why your time isn't spent on blogging. Christmas will be a blast I'm sure and great score for yourself! You totally deserve it!

  2. Cindi - I'm sure you've already the pic of my 2 little loves on FB :) I think this week I'm going to try to get on and do a few posts. One of which will be about Averie's sudden love of crewcuts and what I got her for Christmas from there!

  3. Hi Aimee! Your little ones are so cute. I know how hard it is to keep up on blogging and I don't have kids, so I give you credit for any extra time you manage to find for yourself and your blog. I hope all is well. Sounds like you were able to pick up some good deals today. I'm hoping to get to the store tomorrow or Saturday morning and check out what's stashed in the sale room!

  4. ahhh! I was wondering where you went. I am glad you are ok, although busy with the kids. I can just imagine how hard it would be with kids AND a blog to keep up. It's already hard for me without kids. Just l;etting you know that i still read your blog!

  7. Welcome briefly back, Aimee. You've been missed! It's good to find some time to spoil yourself a bit every now and then - the holidays and an Anthro sale sounds like a good excuse!

  9. Aimee, welcome back! I completely understand putting blogging on the back burner to attend to more important things. I have cut down my reading list from who knows how many blogs to about 5 or 6. Your children are so beautiful; it is going to be such a special Christmas!

    Great steals you found, by the way! I love finding popbacks like that.

  10. Welcome back, Aimee! It's certainly understandable that you've taken a blogging break these few months, but it's great to have you back! Your darling children are just too precious!

    And I'm so glad to hear you were able to scoop up a few Anthro items for yourself. I hope they both work out for you!
