Hiding

I heard the crinkle of paper and knew Lil Man was sneaking looking at the presents. I looked around the corner to find him touching them. He saw me and 'hid'. I don't think he has grasped the concept of hiding yet.

Hiding
Is that just too cute or what?

I can't believe how much he has grown. Where does the time go? It seems like yesterday he was just learning to crawl. Now he is running, climbing and becoming his own little person.

I see a lot of me in him (uh oh, payback!). I also see my Hubby in him. He adores his daddy. Whatever Daddy is doing he wants to do.

And Hubby is an awesome father. He definitely has the patience of the two of us. By the end of the day I'm at a deficit when it comes to patience. So it's nice to see Hubby step in and take over. Most nights he does bath/bedtime for Lil Man. Yep, you read that right. MOST nights he puts Lil Man to bed. He reads him a bedtime story and puts him to bed. No complaints from this mommy!

Now that I'm doing freelance work, it gives me time to work for half an hour to an hour once Hubby gets home. I'm finding my schedule/balance with working and taking care of Lil Man. I prayed for an avenue that I could make a little money for the household. I feel that God has answered that prayer, and I am truly thankful. It didn't just fall into my lap and I'm constantly having to 'work' it. I'm looking/applying for jobs daily. But I'm hopeful this is going to work out for our family.

Adfilic Bluetooth Stereo Portable Wireless Speaker Review and Giveaway

I love music and streaming music through various apps on my iPhone. But with the case that I have on my phone, it sort of blocks the speakers a little. I can hear, but it can be a little muffled. So when I heard about the  Adfilic Bluetooth Stereo Portable Wireless Speaker  I jumped at the chance to try it. I was a little nervous since there really wasn't a lot of instructions on setup. I mean it had the usual pictures of this button does this etc, but there really wasn't a lot of documentation with it. So I was a little apprehensive at first.  But it didn't take me too long to realize that I didn't need a lot of instruction. It was pretty much straight forward. Charge it. After it was charged, turn it on. I went into my connections on my iPhone. It immediately found it, paired, and I was good to go.  I did get a little confused on which button was volume up (and down). But after a little trial and error with that, I've had absolutely zero iss

Little Buffalo State Park

I don't know about where you live, but where we live we are within driving distance to several State Parks. And because the weather has been so cool this Summer, and although it's August, last week was the first time we'd been to the pool. Lil Man had a blast. We had hoped some friends could join us today, but no one was available. But we ventured out, just the two of us, and we had a blast. The water was still pretty cold. In fact, we would get in - play for awhile - then get out and sit on a beach towel in the sun to warm up. This seemed to work well. We splurged and Lil Man enjoyed his first chocolate chipwich. He exclaimed "It's a cookie AND ice cream!" I do believe he thought it was a genius idea. Although it can be exhausting as my Lil Man is one that wants me to definitely join in with him with the sprinklers etc, it was pure joy to watch him enjoy himself. I think this picture speaks for itself. I hope you are enjoying your last few days

Ecosak Nylon Nut Bag Review

I have been compensated in the form of a gift card/money/coupon and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. All opinions expressed are mine and honest in nature. Well, can you believe that I am trying out a nut bag to make my own almond milk? (I'll pause a moment so that you can let the shock wear off!) I can honestly say that never in my life did I intend on making my own almond milk. But as you know, we are making some changes to our diet. So I decided I would give it a try.  And with the Ecosak I also received some recipes which really helped since I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to do. I asked Lil Man if he wanted to help me, and he was more than thrilled. Apparently making almond milk was an exciting and fun thing for him. First things first was to wash the Ecosak (easy to do) and soak the nuts. Yep, I put some raw almonds in a bowl, covered them with water and let them soak 6-8 hours or so. After they had been soaked, I
