Finding the Woman in "Mommy"
Wiping noses and bottoms, doing dishes and laundry, making beds and lunches and endless meals...I have lost the woman inside me. I pray this blog will help me find myself again in the midst of the mundane tasks of mommyhood. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being a mommy and wife...with all my heart. It is better than I ever imagined, but the endless work has snuffed out some of my joy. My sister-friend says to "savor every moment." So here is my attempt to live to the fullest during this stage of life.

Losing teeth, tying shoes....just stop Lou!
Slow down. When did "the babies" become not the babies?
I am not in a state to properly deal with all this growth! :)
I agree with Jen! Lou is such a big girl. It's awesome to see them develop!
Great Job, Lou. You are growing into such a smart little girl. Hugs to you!
How adorable!
This post is just like Antique Mommy's bike riding photo story. A few pictures really are a thousand words and now Loulabelle will remember this always.
Shoe tying is a BIG deal.
Kate
You might as well ship her off to kindergarten...losing teeth, tying shoes, what a big girl! How's your Mommy heart taking all of these big girl things??
Oh my goodness. That is some major big time stuff right there! Love that last picture. She is adorable.
She is so cute and proud of herself. I love it.
Awesome, step-by-step pics. She is oh,so big! Love the new web look also. You are so going to have to show me how to do that someday.
Wow!! Way to go Lou. That's impressive!
SO CUTE! And I LOOOVE her outfit! ;-) The thumbs up at the end is such a sweet victory!
so cute! and I wanted to mention that I am loving philipa gregory too. right now i am reading some alice hoffman books. =)
So that's how you do it?
:-)
