So I started the "vlog". I've only done 2 episodes and they're both very short. You can see them at jgvaldeezy.tumblr.com
I'm really bad about keeping up with anything but Facebook right now.
We went to a Honda dealer last night and test drove a car we love... We haggled, then walked away... now we're waiting. I'm hoping this is the car God wants us to have because I loved it! It's a 2010 Honda CRV with leather interior (which wasn't my first choice), sun/moon roof, heated seats, blah blah blah.
That's not what I liked about it.
It drives like a dream, I CAN drive it (the scion we own is manual which I can't do), there's soooo much more space in it, it's safe, and IT'S A HONDA! I'm a hardcore advocate for Honda. If you take care of it, the car will last you till 300 thousand miles where others you're lucky if it lives to 200.
Anyway... I've been tired. I need vitamins.
We're still overcoming our circumstances with God at the wheel. He's good like that.
Went to a SF Giants game with my cousins last week... LOVED IT! I love the Giants and my cousins so it was great.
Beach Camp with the youth kids is in 2 weeks. The girls will be split up which I'm not excited about, but it'll be fine. They're both in caring, more than capable hands.
Now I'm just blabbering.
End post.

Be the change.
So much for this "try harder" business huh?
I am thinking about starting a Vlog series on my journey into the world of animation. It's something that God has been kind of shoving in my face, so I'm thinking about documenting it. Ultimate goal of it all: work at Pixar(or Walt Disney Studios). This is going to take years and years of practice, school, etc, but as long as it's God breathed, it will be worth it in the long run.
Here's the thing:
It irritates the crap out of me when people talk about Disney being "demonic" and "anti-God". Let's get a few things straight:
Walt Disney Animation (classic Disney movies) have a tendency to drift more towards the less-pure side of things. Not Pixar. Pixar has a history of keeping their films as innocent & child like as possible, but while creating a happy medium for adults as well. Besides that, you can let kids watch classic Disney movies and still protect them from anything that might creep them out. Don't be a religious baby.
Be the freaking change.
My goal to work for Pixar or even Walt Disney Studios is to be effective for the kingdom of God. Not to hide my beliefs or to agree with everything they put out there. Being effective in a safe church setting is one thing, but it's not what we're called to do. I want to change lives, and I feel like this is something God has put in my heart from birth.
Wow... This is NOT where I expected this post to go. I didn't expect to put all this stuff out there, but now I guess I have to be accountable. Right? Right.
It's not for sure anyway. It's something we're praying about and I'm dipping my toes in the water, not jumping into the pool.

Try a little harder.
O.k., so I'm trying to get back into blogger. I feel like I've got too much crap floating around but whatever. Currently using: Facebook (duh), Twitter (@JGvaldeezy), Tumblr (jgvaldeezy.tumblr.com), and now PINTEREST which I'm in love with. What's one more thing right?
Ha.
Working full time, mom full time, Youth Leader full time, wife full time...
Cycle that never ends unless to be interrupted by a random "girls night out" or something.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not bitter at all. I love my life. I'm just dying for a vacation.
Leila hit a bump called "terrific twos". Our re-name for it anyway.
Conference starts tonight, I'll be at the church all weekend.
Ashley and Zack move next week to Seattle. ♥ So crazy excited for them but my heart is still a little sad.
Boom.
Bam.
New layout.
I'm Out.
Ha.

My heart is Yours.
I can't sleep.
I know it's not that early for most people, but give me a break. I have two kids.
This song is stuck in my head, the lyrics happen to contain the paraphrase of a Bible verse God told me to use for my next tattoo.
I'll set you as a seal upon my heart
as a seal upon my arm
for there is love that is as strong as death
jealousy demanding as the grave
and many waters cannot quench this love.
Come be the fire inside of me
come be the flame upon my heart
Come be the fire inside of me
until you and I are one.
(I skipped major parts in that... but I don't care.)
"For love is as strong as death
It's jealousy unyielding as the grave.
It burns like a blazing fire,
like a mighty flame.
Many waters cannot quench love;
Rivers cannot sweep it away.
This probably looks like the craziest blog post ever, but God won't leave me alone.
I WANT THIS LOVE
I know this is how God feels for us, and it's totally stirring my spirit right now.
I want more.
I want what HE has for me! For us! For my family.
I'm jealous. I want it all.
I'm really glad God is bringing revelation on this verse... It's probably good to fully comprehend something before it gets tattooed on your body.
Badaboom.
Probably weirdest blog I've ever posted.

How do you solve a problem like Maria?
I've been super neglectful of my blog. I'm sorry.
I haven't even posted our Dland pics on Facebook, and that's borderline blasphemous.
Probably the most important thing (at least in my mind) that has happened lately:
My spiritual parents Eric and Margriet resigned from Pastoral staff so that Eric can finish his schooling for becoming an English teacher. It's been on his heart to be effective for God in the teaching realm. It's all good stuff and good reasons, it was just slightly unsettling. What made it more intense is that Margriet passed on the spiritual torch (so-to-speak) to myself and two of my friends.
It's a lot.
But it's so exciting.
If you don't know Margriet, she is super amazing prophetic awesome woman of God. I know that sounded funky but there it is.
Ever since she did that, I've felt like an adult.
You'd think having 2 kids and being married would make me feel that way, but no. This did it.
Also, I became licensed with The River on Friday night which means I'm officially a Pastor.
A pastor.
I want to make the most of this and be as affective as possible.
Now onto the random:
Going to Chico on Saturday to get my 2nd tattoo.
I was originally going to fix the one I have, but this is burning in me so I'm doing it first.
Its going to be a bare tree with waves at the roots, one red heart in the branches, with these words along with it:
"For there is love that is as strong as death,
jealousy demanding as the grave,
and many waters cannot quench this love."
Boom.
I'm going to end this before I delete it all and start all over.
Peace.
Peach.

SWDB
I'll do my Disneyland update later tonight. For now though...
For today
Outside my window- It is SUNNY!!! The nice weather must have followed us home from Southern California.
I am thinking- About how I would much rather be back in SoCal at Disneyland. Haha
I am thankful for- being abundantly blessed. God has been so good and faithful. Its indescribable.
I am remembering- The beginning of my relationship with D. So so long ago.
On my mind- Traveling stuff... Just the concept of moving.
I am noticing that- Girls have it way worse than guys. Just saying.
Pondering these words: "What if we just started loving the people God puts before us each day, can you imagine what would spill out of that in terms of opportunity, ministry and even growing fellowship? Jesus didn’t ask us to start ministries. He didn’t ask us to accomplish great things. He simply asked us to love others the same way we are loved by him and that will be enough for the whole world to know that we belong to him and that they can too."
-Rich Oliver
From the learning rooms- Sewing business.
From the kitchen- Debating what to make for dinner tonight. I want tacoooos!
I am wearing- Grey dress thingy, black leggings, sweet BRIGHT red toe socks, plaid vans, Fear the Beard hoodie.
I am creating- I'm about to create a couple of aprons. I've been inspired by a friend's mom. Not to sell, just for personal use and gifties.
I am going- to enjoy being with my girls tonight. I missed Hailey so much while we were gone!
I am reading- "Home"- Julie Andrews' Autobiography.
I am hoping- These aprons won't be insane!
I am hearing- Jesus Culture coming from D's laptop.
Around the house- It's slightly messy. Not too bad.
One of my favorite things- All the pictures from Disneyland. Will post I promise.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Wed: Youth, Thurs: Hopefully making the aprons, Fri: Rehearsal Dinner, then Church (work in between all of this)
Photo of the day:
When we were at Disneyland this past weekend, we stayed with some friends who also happen to be the parents of our friends/spiritual parents. Leila hung out with them Sunday night so we could have some grown up time. They both fell asleep.
For today

"It's the 011!"
I'm going to write this post and actually publish it.
Yes.
I guess that could count as a New Years Resolution.
Start something, and actually finish it.
What a concept!
I feel like I had this whole post planned out, and it just disappeared.
Hmmm...
I guess I'll start with a few "resolutions":
1. Complete something. Anything.
2. Be a better mom to my girls. They deserve it.
3. Get back my pre-baby-bod. If that's possible. Yes I understand I may look stick thin-ish, or semi-in-shape fully clothed, but this lady is no where near ready for beach season. It's not even about that... but that's a completely different story. Anyway, stretchy/flabby/leftovers goodbye.
4. Be a better youth leader. I need to step it up.
5. Preach more.
6. Be a better wife.
7. Be...better.
I feel like this could go too serious too quickly, so I'm stopping my list.
Over all, I want to be the best "Julia" I can be.
Alright, alright.. Enough of this crap.
Disneyland in t-minus 11/10 days. BOOM.
Can't wait.
I've always been kind of, over zealous as far as packing for trips go... But I'm even more so now that I have kids.
I'm surprised their stuff isn't already packed.
(Or my own)
There's so much to prep and plan and prepare for as far as kids go.
Hailey will be with our friends, so I'd feel awful if I forgot something.
Leila will be with us, but it would be a nightmare if I forgot something important...like her "boppy" (pacifier for those of you who don't speak Leila).
Alright alright alright... I'm getting tired and losing focus. Moving on to SWDB:
(P.S. I was just thinking I wish I needed to wear glasses... even just for reading. Sad.)
For today:
Outside my window- It's dark and windy it sounds like... Night time.
I am thinking- I should be sleeping... Why am I awake?
I am thankful for- Gary and Carol Leach (our friends/our friend's parents that we're staying with during Disneyland). Seriously a blessing.
I am remembering- When my mom used to make us french toast. Random.
On my mind- D. Just that I love him.
I am noticing that- I get a little crazy when I'm tired, and if I rest my eyes too long, I lose my train of thought. Also, that it irritates the crap out of me when people spell "loose" when they mean "lose".
Pondering these words: Not words so much, just pondering God's love.
From the learning rooms- Learning to plan and organize more efficiently.
From the kitchen- Nothing!
I am wearing- Black shorts (to show off my pasty legs), blue tank top, blue cardigan, no shoes.
I am creating- Luggage bags for our stroller so it doesn't get jacked or accidentally taken at Disneyland :)
I am going- to go to bed soon fo sho!
I am reading- Fail.
I am hoping- That God's heart is the same as mine for a particular situation. I'm not over it haha.
I am hearing- D tinkering with a computer in the dining room.
Around the house- Little bit messy, better than usual.
One of my favorite things- The way D looks at me. I don't care how dorky that sounds.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Work, Youth tomorrow night, dinner with friends on Thursday, service friday, nothing saturday, church sunday... Boom.
Photo of the day:
Me on my birthday, being ridiculous. (PS D got a Macbook Pro. I think I'm in love... I'm mainly in love with the 99$ Marc by Marc Jacobs bag I saw for it at the Apple store :) )

A real post? No way...
It's true! I mean, I'm behind on my SWDB so I'll do that at the end, but I'm going to make a REAL post!
Christmas is already over, I can't believe it. We're so blessed. I told D the other day it's amazing how faithful God is, not just in the big things, but in the little desires of our heart. I always had faith for God to do miracles (healing, restoration, etc.) but I forgot to believe in the little stuff, and He's reminded me of that this Christmas.
D and I are giving each other our presents in 19 days...That's right... Our trip to DISNEYLAND!!!
I'm beyond excited about this.
It'll be Leila's first trip ever. She's really excited. And to make it better, our friends Tadd and Cassie are going with us :) Everything for this trip totally opened up. We have a place to stay (for free!), the fact that Cassie and Tadd get to go is huge, and we get to stay for 3 days instead of 2! It's just all awesome. O.k., enough of this, lets get to the SWDB. Wow... two weeks behind. My bad!
For today
Outside my window- It's sunny again!
I am thinking- About what I need to get done today.
I am thankful for- the people who gave us Starbucks Christmas Blend, and for Kelsey giving me Disneyland Coffee. MMMMM
I am remembering- The joy and excitement of Disneyland
On my mind- I need to have more grace for Leila.
I am noticing that- Leila is crazy. Lol
Pondering these words: I'm not really sure... I'm pondering more of God's goodness.
From the learning rooms- Learning to make tutus! Thanks to Tammi!
From the kitchen- The smell of coffee and eggo waffles haha.
I am wearing- Teal leggings, my new Minnie Mouse shirt, and no shoes. Yeah, I'm classy.
I am creating- Tutus!!! As soon as I get the stuff.
I am going- to clean today hopefully, and spend some time with my girls.
I am reading- I'm going to start reading Romans again.
I am hoping- D doesn't get home super late tonight.
I am hearing- Dora the Explorer + Leila and Hailey both talking to the TV
Around the house- Little bit messy. Christmas cards are on the fridge now.
One of my favorite things- The way Leila talks, and how she talks about seeing Jesus.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Work work work, I turn 23 on Friday (woo...) and it's also my Nana's 73rd birthday, and D's grandpa's 70th birthday. Hopefully I'll be seeing my cousins this week, and hanging with my friends and D.

Woman's Simple Day Book
Almost forgot about this! Ah HA!
For today
Outside my window- It's sunny!!!! What in the world??
I am thinking- About how to make my ugly Christmas sweater even more ridiculous.
I am thankful for- Jaime giving me french pressed coffee this morning. Someone was about to die.
I am remembering- Past Christmases with my family. All the good times as kids. ♥
On my mind- My parents have been a lot lately. Probably due to the holidays.
I am noticing that- I can be creative. And I should be more often.
Pondering these words: I'm not... is that bad?
From the learning rooms- Learning how to be a better mom, if that makes sense.
From the kitchen- Not sure. We're not home right now its work time.
I am wearing- Jeans, lumberjack shirt, stinky boots.
I am creating- My ugly Christmas sweater! I'll have to post a pic when it's done.
I am going- to Pastor Rich and Lindy's house for lunch with the staff. That'll be nice!
I am reading- ...
I am hoping- We get our Christmas shopping done. We haven't done any really.
I am hearing- The construction workers talking in the next room, and buzzing music from D's earbuds.
Around the house- It is decorated! Tree is up and looking beautiful, but a section of lights are out.
One of my favorite things- Decorating for Christmas with a cup of hot chocolate, Christmas music, and my family. ♥
A few plans for the rest of the week:Today: Lunch, Youth! Thursday: Nothing Friday: Staff/Board Christmas Party, Saturday: Lords and Ladies dinner night with the youth! Sunday: Church :) then Christmas Party.
Photo of the day: We took Leila to meet the cast of Yo Gabba Gabba on Saturday, she loved it until Plex (the Robot) tried to high five her...

I am noticing that- I can be creative. And I should be more often.
Pondering these words: I'm not... is that bad?
From the learning rooms- Learning how to be a better mom, if that makes sense.
From the kitchen- Not sure. We're not home right now its work time.
I am wearing- Jeans, lumberjack shirt, stinky boots.
I am creating- My ugly Christmas sweater! I'll have to post a pic when it's done.
I am going- to Pastor Rich and Lindy's house for lunch with the staff. That'll be nice!
I am reading- ...
I am hoping- We get our Christmas shopping done. We haven't done any really.
I am hearing- The construction workers talking in the next room, and buzzing music from D's earbuds.
Around the house- It is decorated! Tree is up and looking beautiful, but a section of lights are out.
One of my favorite things- Decorating for Christmas with a cup of hot chocolate, Christmas music, and my family. ♥
A few plans for the rest of the week:Today: Lunch, Youth! Thursday: Nothing Friday: Staff/Board Christmas Party, Saturday: Lords and Ladies dinner night with the youth! Sunday: Church :) then Christmas Party.

WSDB
For today
Outside my window- Sun setting, leaves shaking, big box from our tree!
I am thinking- About getting dinner started.
I am thankful for- God being THE provider, and for my hard working husband.
I am remembering- Decorating the Christmas tree at my Grandmother's with my cousins.
On my mind- ChristmasChristmasChristmas.
I am noticing that- I need to vacuum the kitchen.
Pondering these words: I'm pondering how God is like Santa is supposed to be, but better!
From the learning rooms- Learning how to make soup tonight!
From the kitchen- Clean dishes, stuff to make Chicken Taco soup!
I am wearing- Tube top and jeans. Bare feet!
I am creating- Nothing right now.
I am going- Put lights on the tree!
I am reading- Take a wild guess...
I am hoping- D won't have to work tonight.
I am hearing- Leila saying "I want..." and asking for tons of stuff, and some Barney Christmas special on tv.
Around the house- Random baby clothes as usual.
One of my favorite things- Everything about the Christmas season!
A few plans for the rest of the week: Making soup tonight, work tomorrow, youth Wednesday, work Thursday, Christmas Production Friday, Taking Leila to see Yo Gabba Gabba at the mall on Saturday, decorating Grandma's tree on Sunday!
Photo of the day:
Hailey fast asleep, wearing the amazing Minnie Mouse hat and booties my friend Alegre made! Leila and I are getting one too!

Oh Simple Woman's Day Book
For today
Outside my window- Shiney sun, leaves falling off the tree onto our balcony, and the Christmas lights I put up (ghetto).
I am thinking- That I should be getting ready to go to dinner for Dezi's birthday...
I am thankful for- My amazing mother who brought her Dyson vaccuum and steam cleaner to my house today (her last day off) and cleaned my whole house.
I am remembering- Being pregnant with Hailey again, at least, finding out about it. Insaaaane!
On my mind- Our next Disneyland trip! January 15th-17th... and the fact that I still need someone to take Hailey for a day and a half. lol
I am noticing that- I need to shower... hahaha
Pondering these words:
Grace.
From the learning rooms- Learning to clean my house better!
From the kitchen- Not a thing!
I am wearing- An old maternity tank top, holey jeans, and no shoes. Cleaning gear.
I am creating- Nothing right now.
I am going- To Red Robin tonight. Hollaaaaa! Friiiiies!
I am reading- Take a wild guess...
I am hoping- To stay motivated.
I am hearing- The dryer, and Monsters Inc. on the television.
Around the house- SO CLEAN! Minus the Chic-Fil-A cup on the table.
One of my favorite things- How good it feels to have a clean house. I know, I'm obsessing.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Tonight: Red Robin, Tomorrow: Hailey's first day at daycare, work, and BLISS, Wednesday: Youth, Thursday: Nothing, Friday: Nothing, Saturday, Nothing, Sunday: Church! Wow. A mellow week!!! I forgot what that looked like.

50 FREE Christmas Cards for Bloggers!
Sooo my awesome friend Tiffany Reese just let me know about this awesome promotion from Shutterfly! So I thought I'd share with you all!
We haven't gotten Christmas cards since Leila was born because they are pretty expensive, but Shutterfly is very reasonable! Check it out! I think I'm going to use this site for all my announcements and invites from now on. I think you'd be crazy not to! Also, having two kids makes it a little harder to go out and shop for Christmas presents, so I'm using Shutterfly this year! I mean, what grandparent wouldn't want to have an awesome mug with their grandkid's faces on it? Or an awesome Personalized wall calendar? I'm excited to get my free cards because their layouts are super cute and easy to use! Check them out here! It'll be awesome to send out cards with pictures of my little ladies for everyone to enjoy! Join me in this awesome FREE opportunity! I know this post was a little cheesy, but I want you all to be able to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!

Heeeere's the thing...
OK! Here's that post I was promising:
Last week was a little crazy.
We found out Wednesday of last week that we needed to be completely off the old church property by Friday.
YIKES!
So we packed and moved EVERYTHING that was left (the ENTIRE contents of the office, etc.) over to Roseville.
That's basically it.
Moving on..
Thanksgiving is in 2 days. WOOOOO!
I was supposed to make a pie with my mom aaand that didn't happen.
My plan is to help mom cook Thanksgiving day, and on Friday: clean the sweet baby bajeesus out of my house.
We'll see how that goes.
I've got crafty things I want to do, but I feel like I have no time to or no money to do it with.
I love my job... But some days I wish I was a S.A.H.M.
That's it. Peace!

Simple Woman's Day Book. I think I'm a week behind...
I was literally laying awake just now and realized I hadn't done this... this week has been insane
Post to follow.
For today
Outside my window- It's cold and rainy. It has been boarderline ridiculous the last 3 days. The little nature preserve or whatev behind our apartments is totally flooded like a river... It's kind of amazing.
I am thinking- Seeing "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 1" tomorrow night. BOOM.
I am thankful for- Having an amazing family and amazing friends. This week in particular, I'm thankful for having such an awesome relationship with my brother Robby, and I'm thankful he has an amazing girlfriend (Britany). Love.
I am remembering- Being pregnant with Hailey and blogging at this time of the morning... I was watching Julie and Julia and all we had to eat was toast. Sick.
On my mind- My girls, as usual. We've been fighting with Leila to stay in her bed. D won after she got up 2 times last night... It usually takes me 10 when he's not here. Wondering what I'm doing wrong??
I am noticing that- I should be sleeping since my kids are...
Pondering these words:
"Love came down and rescued me, Love came down and set me free. I am Yours, I'm forever Yours..." (Not pondering so much as they're on repeat in my mind right now.)
From the learning rooms- Nothing this week.
From the kitchen- It's messy. Mac n Cheese for dinner.
I am wearing- Band shirt I found at the Club and leggings.
I am creating- Nothing right now.
I am going- To see my grandma today before Harry Potter. She's having surgery on Wednesday so she won't be able to be at Thanksgiving which makes me sad, but she really wants to see the girls before. I love her.
I am reading- I'm bad. I haven't had reading time.
I am hoping- Things calm down this week... *HA!*
I am hearing- The heater.
Around the house- Not as bad as usual. I am sitting in the dark, but I know there's a baby blanket and a PS3 remote next to me.
One of my favorite things- Tammi's answer reminded me of one of mine haha. When we pick up Leila from the nursery or daycare and she yells "DADDY! MY DADDY!" and runs to D. Sooooo cute!
A few plans for the rest of the week:Visiting Grandma, Harry Potter with some good friends tonight, Tuesday/Wednesday:The chaos that is my job, Thursday:Helping my mom cook dinner! Friday: Not a darn thing.
Photo of the day:
Not sure why D chose that particular filter, but I love this, even if Hailey isn't looking.

Thank you thank you thank you!
It kind of works out that I feel so thankful today, and that Thanksgiving is in a week, so today is the day I will do a "What I'm thankful for" post.
I wasn't planning on doing one, but my heart is overflowing today.
I am thankful...
♥ That God has blessed me with an AMAZING husband, who is encouraging, loving, hillarious, my best friend and without a doubt, the love of my life... and for my two amazing, healthy little girls.
♥ That I have amazing, loving parents who would do anything for me.
♥ That God has blessed us with an AMAZING church family, and a GORGEOUS new property. Whether it's finished or not, I love it. I cannot wait to be there and completely out of Orangevale.
♥ For my amazing friends who encourage, and push me to be a better person... who I can let loose with and just be myself with.
♥ For the job God has given me... It can be stressful, but I get to work with the people I love, and help make the ministries of The Family Church of Sacramento possible.
♥ For our amazing youth group, youth leaders, and youth Pastors. They are the best, and I mean that. I'm so proud to be able to speak into them, laugh with them, and just be a part of the coolest youth group in the world.
♥ I'm thankful God has put Jaime and Estora as the Youth pastors. In case you're reading this...You guys are THE BEST. You're raising up a group of well rounded, amazing, hillarious warriors, and it's an honor to serve you.
♥

This weeks:
FOR TODAY
Outside my window- Hazel Ave, again. Sun shining... Lots and lots of traffic.
I am thinking- Too much, and I'd rather not talk about it... If that's o.k.
I am thankful for- My husband (did I pick him last week?), who is my perfect polar opposite when I need him to be (like when I stop being optimistic.)
I am remembering- Leila before she could talk as well as she does now... or walk... my baby!
On my mind- Wouldn't this count as the "I am thinking"? No? Then, Leila is on my mind. And the fact that I just noticed I'm being very short today.
Noticing that- Hailey is huge in the best way possible. I'm so glad she's a healthy little bean.
Pondering these words: Trust Me.
From the learning rooms- I'm going to learn how to make awesome headbands with big flowers and bows for my girls. I love them (my girls I mean). Maybe tutus too.
From the kitchen- Chicken tacos are begging to be made today.
I am wearing- Jeans (my one nice pair), my brown boots, and my brother's Berkley hoodie. It's my favorite.
I am creating- Nothing at the moment, but like I said, I want to make the headbands... And pies.
I am going- To dance my heart out at youth tonight to Nsync's "I want you back". Should be interesting...
I am reading- Still nothing minus "Brown bear brown bear what do you see?"
I am hoping- For the best. For my girls to be healthy and strong and live long, full lives.
I am hearing- Hailey grunting, Abi and Auston talking in the office down the hall.
Around the house- clothes, shoes, etc.
One of my favorite things- Hearing Leila sing, and how excited she gets when "You've got a Friend in Me" comes on Pandora. She's beautiful.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Youth tonight, Tacos tomorrow night, Friday night mall walk with the Hammer, Saturday Tropicana Practice, Sunday Tropicana.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
My sweet Leila. She's an ornery little thing but I love her to pieces. She's my little angel.

Stealing ideas is fun.
Hijacked an idea from my friend Tammi... I'm going to participate int the once a week. Here we go:
For today:
Outside my window- Is Hazel Avenue. Not super duper busy yet, but it shouldn't be long. It's almost 4.
I am thinking- Christmas, and the possibility of our mini Disneyland trip.
I am thankful for- My amazing husband and family (biological or not) they're all fantastic.
From the kitchen- It's probably smelling like broccoli. I'm at work right now and I made broccoli to go in Leila's lunch.
I am wearing- Jeans, loose white top, 2 tank tops under that and mah-flippay floppays.
I am creating- I just created a funeral program for a man from our church. It's weird that I'm starting to become a pro at it. Idk if I like that...
I am going- to go pick up my big girl, Estora + her kiddos after work.
I am reading- A lot of blogs lately... Not so many books.
I am hoping- for breakthrough. Lots of it.
I am hearing- Eric talking about "Tall skinny Matt" while he uses the printer... now he's threatening Auston's life.
Around the house- Tons of baby clothes, blankets, aaaand papers.
One of my favorite things- Hailey smiling when Leila talks to her... or Leila being so polite!
A few plans for the rest of the week:
Tonight: Youth at the new property. Hollaaa
Thursday: Tropicana Practice after work
Friday: Ladies night
Saturday: Helping with the homegoing Service for Steve DiGioia
Sunday: Lots.

I'm really going to do it this time.
I keep starting to blog, then crap out after the first two paragraphs.
I will do this.
Ok... Sooo... I had a baby. Hailey Eden. She'll be 3 months old on the 12th. I cannot believe it.
The church has FINALLY moved to ROSEVILLE(All but the offices.)!!! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!!!
O.k., but surrriously...
It's absolutely beautiful.
(and slightly cramped)
But I can't believe IT'S REALLY HAPPENED!!!
Love love love...
Lurve...O.k.
Life is crazy right now. I kind of love it.
Everything is changing... But that's good.
O.k... I'm done.
Peace Out.
I will do this.

Contracting.
That's what I want to put on Facebook every time I have another contraction... Because that's what's on my mind in that moment.
Started having contractions every 3-5 mins from 6AM on. Little Lady wasn't moving much at all, so off we went to L&D. By the time we got there,(9:35), she had started moving again, but I was definitely having contractions. So we hung out there for 2 1/2 hrs. Found out I'm dilated 1cm. Then they sent me home. If they get worse I'm supposed to go back.
Here's to hoping she stays in at least another 2 weeks.
We'll see.
These 2010 girls are apparently extremely impatient and have minds of their own!
