Pet Peeves

Posted on June 13, 2011 Written by Tonya

According to Wikipedia, a pet peeve is described as a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to him or her, to a greater degree than others may find it.

Mine are ever changing but this week, these five top the list:

These Are Days

Posted on June 3, 2011 Written by Tonya

Tomorrow we are celebrating Lucas’ second birthday with a small party complete with family, friends, Thomas the Train, cupcakes and a bounce house.

It’s hard to believe my baby is already two! Where does the time go? Everyone said, “it goes by fast” and they were so right.

This little boy is the light of my life and I can’t imagine the last 24 months without him.

He is smart and funny and kind and teaches me more than I’ll ever be able to teach him. He is patient with me and enriches my life in ways I never knew possible.

If you have a couple of minutes to spare, here is a slide show of some of my favorite photos of my sweet boy over the last two years.

Unfortunately YouTube copyright infringement laws prevented me from using the song I wanted: These Are Days by 10,000 Maniacs, so I’ve included the lyrics here:

These are the days
These are days you’ll remember
Never before and never since, I promise
Will the whole world be warm as this
And as you feel it,
You’ll know it’s true
That you are blessed and lucky
It’s true that you
Are touched by something
That will grow and bloom in you

These are days that you’ll remember
When May is rushing over you
With desire to be part of the miracles
You see in every hour
You’ll know it’s true
That you are blessed and lucky
It’s true that you are touched
By something that will grow and bloom in you

These are days
These are the days you might fill
With laughter until you break
These days you might feel
A shaft of light
Make its way across your face
And when you do
Then you’ll know how it was meant to be
See the signs and know their meaning
It’s true
Then you’ll know how it was meant to be
Hear the signs and know they’re speaking
To you, to you

These are definitely the days and I’m grateful for each and every one.

Happy Birthday, Lucas!

Put On A Little Make-Up

Posted on May 17, 2011 Written by Tonya

This is a lot harder than it looks! Not going from no make-up to make-up but vlogging. Go easy on me….


This post is for Jessica’s (My Time As Mom) new meme, Vlog Talk. The prompt I chose was #2: What is your makeup routine? Show us (inspired by Daily Dose of Sugar Mama)

If you missed my first vlog, it has been restored and can be found here: The Next Generation In Blogging?

I lost all my comments last week, so leave some love and please tell me that I’ve gotten a little bit better this week.

Thanks for your help, Leah!

The Next Generation In Blogging?

Posted on May 17, 2011 Written by Tonya

This post was actually created and published last week BEFORE the blogapocalypse, where Blogger went dark for more than 24 hours.


Here goes nothing!
My very first attempt at vlogging…

This post is for Jessica’s (My Time As Mom) new meme, Vlog Talk. The prompt was: Introduce yourself, what is your blog about, how long have you been doing it, have you ever vlogged before, if so – what has your experience been with vlogging.
