defining the circles that make me whole
CrazyPosted by Alli on May 22, 2009
It’s been a fun filled last few days with lots of offline interaction. Tomorrow is going to be like the last three days packed into one, but I’m looking forward to it. And hopefully I can rest on Sunday.
Three months agoPosted by Alli on May 18, 2009
Three months ago, around 4:30 in the morning it was raining. I know because Damon and I were trying not to get my pillow wet when we loaded into the car. Three months ago, a little before 5 a.m. I met a woman who handed me a bunch of papers to sign, clipped a piece [...]
Coffee on my mindPosted by Alli on May 17, 2009
We went camping on Friday and prior to the trip, I had only one real worry: how would I get my morning coffee on Saturday morning. I could have worried about how Tebow would behave, the weather, or if Fuller would fall into a poison ivy patch. Instead, I was obsessing over how to get [...]
DizzyPosted by Alli on May 11, 2009
Sometimes Motherhood feels a little like this: While trying to maintain the cycle of an attempted routine, you are also dealing with the ups and downs of life. And most of the time, it’s fun! Mother’s Day was sweet. After church we were driving home and admiring how awesome the weather was. Considering how wet [...]
Best things in life are freePosted by Alli on April 22, 2009
Yesterday was Free Cone Day at Ben and Jerry’s. Our family made sure to be there for our free ice cream. We went last year and it will probably become a family tradition. When I was taking the kids downtown (with visions of ice cream in my head), Damon called to let me know the [...]
Ten, tien, dix, zehn, dieci, dezPosted by Alli on April 10, 2009
No matter how you say it, ten is the number of years Damon and I have been married. April 10, 1999 was a beautiful day, full of joy and happiness for us both. The last ten years have been a roller coaster of events, emotions, and dreams. And I know there are many more years [...]
Wedding Weekend Away!Posted by Alli on April 9, 2009
A few weeks ago I took a trip to visit my sister, Austina. She is getting married this weekend and I was present at one of her showers. It was a treat to hang out with her for a while and have a small break away from the mom with two kids lifestyle. I only [...]
Adjustments and acknowledgementsPosted by Alli on April 5, 2009
Damon took this picture of me yesterday and it is the first picture of me where I feel like I look like myself again. As a result, I feel like things are normalizing and evening out in a good way. Sure, I still feel sleep deprived (falling asleep in the church nursery after nursing Tebow [...]
More like myselfPosted by Alli on March 26, 2009
After a decent night with almost the right amount of sleep, I did a spontaneous thing and took the boys to the Creative Discovery Museum. It was a delightful trip, where Fuller enjoyed himself, we enjoyed each other, and Tebow behaved beautifully. What made it even more delightful, besides just being out of the house, [...]
