Merry Christmas!!

I know I'm a day late, but sorry. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I know that I have enjoyed spending time with family and friends.

My camera is about to bite the dust so I don't have any pictures. Hopefully someone **hint hint wink wink** will send me some pictures from all of our gatherings. NC didn't know too much was going on other than she liked the sounds of the wrapping and tissue paper. She got a lot of cute outfits and toys that will be used now that we have started TEETHING!!! More about that later.

My mother and I ventured out to Little Rock for a little after Christmas shopping. I don't suggest that to anyone. It was worse than the day after Thanksgiving. We went all over LR and found some good sales. We had a great day.

I think we are going to try to leave for Crowley on Monday. NC was really good on the way up. We only stopped twice. Once for momma and the second time because NC was pitching a FIT. Anthony had to go back on Christmas day. He didn't really have to but he wanted to. We are also going to try to meet with a real estate agent on Wednesday to look at some houses. I really hate looking for houses by the way if anyone was wondering. The housing market down there is so inflated it's ridiculous. More on that later also

I was tagged

I was tagged by couple of people, but I just now got caught up on everything. I don't really know the rules other than I am supposed to tell 7 random things and tag 7 people. So here it goes:

1. I met my husband in a coaching class I was taking to boost my gpa in college.

2. I was engaged to someone else when I met Anthony. God was telling me I was with the wrong person.

3. My husband is a complete romantic and I can not do anything to ever compare. He is always do things that totally amazes me.

4. I had our first child 4 months and 2 days ago and just got back into my size 2 jeans. I really can't believe I fit in them. They have a lot of stretch! Yes I had to brag a little bit!

5. **men look away for this one** I am a brestfeeding, baby-wearing momma that I never thought I would be. I always said that I would "try" breastfeeding, but little did I know that after the first latch I was hooked. About the baby wearing- my daughter wants to be with me all the time and the hot-sling is wonderful.

6. I have an accounting degree and a history degree. And yes I could make 3 times what I do now teaching, but it's all worth it. I get a week during thanksgiving, 2 weeks at christmas, a week at easter, a week during Mardi Gras, and 2 months off during the summer.

7. I am addicted to my blackberry!!!! I can't live without it! In fact, I am typing this post on it!

I don't think I know 7 people on here that haven't already been tagged. Thank you to the people that did tag me!

We are in AR till the 29th at my dad's. Come by and see us!!

So much to do, so little time.

That is the way I felt the whole time we were in New Orleans this weekend. We had a blast!!! Notre Dame lost, but Anthony was just thankful that they made it to the dome. How many coaches can say that at the end of their second year of coaching their record is 25-2? I think that's pretty good.

Let's start with the trip down there...we had a police escort all the way to NO. That was pretty fun. The snow was unbelievable!!! The closer to Baton Rouge we got (via I-10) the more snow we saw. It was so pretty. I thought I was getting away from the snow when I moved down here, guess I was wrong. NC was soooo good for the trip. She slept the whole way until we got into NO. Luckily, I anticipated her getting up and had a bottle ready. Thank god for bottle warmers that plug into the cigarette lighter thingy. Anthony's sister took us out to Nola (one of Emeril's restraurants in NO). It was good, a bit pricy, but good.

I am officially a baby wearer. I bought a hotsling from Target and wore NC all weekend. It was great! We were able to walk around the Riverwalk and the French Quarter. We found an amazing artist that did her name in different characters. I really can't explain it. I will just have to take a picture and post it. We had a great weekend with Daddy, Aunt Karen and Uncle Jason. It was so much fun.

I will have to post more later. There is just not enough time to tell everyone how much fun we had. We are going back in April to the Audoban (sp?) Zoo. We have a friend that lives off of St. Charles and is really close to it. St. Charles is a street in NO that has a BUNCH of really pretty old style houses. I can't wait.

Christmas carols

I love christmas carols!!! I mean really love them. I found a video on You Tube, but I can't figure out how to get it on here. So, sorry.


We are leaving for New Orleans tomorrow around 11. I am driving my car and having someone ride with me. This will be my first long (over an hour) trip with Nora Claire and me driving. It should be interesting. I am not taking my school laptop with me. So I won't be able to update on the game until we get back on Sunday. Unless I can talk my wonderful Dad or Aunt to bring theirs!! Hint, Hint, Wink, Wink. It will be an interesting 4 days in a hotel room with an almost 4 month old!

My blog needs a desperate upgrade and I don't know how to do it! Anyone want to help?

A little late

I hope everyone had a good thanksgiving. Ours entailed alot of traveling and sickness in between the traveling. I will post more later, when I have a little bit more time.

Notre Dame won and they play Redemptorist on Friday. If they win this one, they make it to the Dome in New Orleans. It would be wonderful for Anthony to get to coach a team in the finals. Not to mention we would get to go to New Orleans.

Why I'm Here

My husband and I live several hours from my family. I started my blog so that my crew in Arkansas can keep up with my family, which recently went from a 2 member household to 3. I teach, and my husband coaches..... so I often have a lot to VENT as well!
