Baby... I mean Toddler

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
I am fairly certain that Titus is not happy that I called him "the baby" today.  I remember being the youngest in my family and I made my mother give me a quarter every time she called me baby or one of my baby nicknames, "Apy do."   My lil man might be turning two in a couple months and I am not OK with that, I mean I will be alright and I understand my kids are going to grow up but the baby stage seemed to disappear too quickly!!  We are not sure if we will have more children or not at this time so I am really making sure I cherish every thing!!

 He is 21 months already but when I look at him I see my baby, my little guy who needs his mamma for all his basic needs but he is becoming so independent now. Today, I said throw this away and he happily listened and completed the task.  He was so proud.  He is a big helper and a trouble maker all at the same time...100% boy!   

 I feel like only a blink ago I was making my list of baby gifts that I needed for my baby shower.  Yes, I was blessed with a shower with my 2nd child!!!  :)  I remember feeling so blessed by all the love and even more so because we had every thing that my baby would need and so much more.  Gifts of diapers, wipes, blankets, a whole wardrobe, and toys!  

 Thank you Lord for blessing me with 2 great kids!  It is a wonderful gift to be a mother!

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!

The Marriage Manual: 3 Secrets To A Happy And Lasting Marriage

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -

Well, you have gone and done it! You’ve stood across from the love of your life and made your vows in front of your family, friends, and God. You’ve entered into the contract of marriage, but while it may be a solemn contract, that certainly doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be fun. It’s strange how many newlyweds expect life to undergo some kind of seismic shift upon tying the knot, assuming that their lives will not become a pattern of domestic drudgery with pleasure, intimacy and fun going out the window and that elusive spark between you fading away until you either can’t stand the sight of each other or are happy to tick over despite the grinding mutual resentment. Happily, the truth is that marriage is neither a ball and chain nor a grueling assault course. But like anything worth having, a marriage needs to be maintained.
