{ dreams&ideas&memories took a siesta}
OK so.. Obviously I fell asleep last night, I didnt intend to. I had everyone tucked in and I was going to sneak back down and begin writing about all the little things that brought me joy in the day, but I found comfort and warmth in my husband arms and quickly fell into a LOVERLY sleep! I promise at some point I will write later today, today is a nap day for my kids, so most likely around 3 if you want come back and let my words bring baby smiles to your hearts heart! Hopefully! I have so many dreams, so many ideas, thoughts, most of them never get to paper, but I promise I'm going to start atleast typing them! See You soon!

One month to go?
Secret's of a Supermommy? There are none. But to be a good mama, you have to bust some dance moves and have a dance party with your kids, let them eat cookies, say yes more, limitless hugs, and alot of understanding and allowance for alot of blunders...
Winter has been decent for us this year. Last year it went fast with the birth of Maive, this year not so much, but all in all it's been a blast. I have had more migraines, but thankfully i can predict them now, and after 8 long desperate years I found an amazing doctor back home who totally gets me and put me on imitrex... and when i pop the pill im back to living my life, dancing and being a mama and wife. I LOVE IT! I am so thankful! NO more puking, or laying in bed wishing my head would explode already,feeling guilty for having the wonderpets or Blues Clues on repeat! WOW. Anyways, I promised I'd blog more this winter, but i've been more busy during these winter months then ever. Isnt winter for curling up with a blankee and cocoa reading a book or magazine. Been designing my web site and hope it'll be done soon. It's late and while I could work on it and probably get it done, i should go to bed so i can function in the morning and be a nice mommy. Enjoy some recents of my little mugwumps! Arent the growing toooo fast! Unbelievable!

fav's from '08.. shot in "P" mode... yea.. "P" moode..
Yeah "P" mode.. what was I thinking, I missed out on so much! I recently got connected with Deb Luker of DLyndlphoto.com.. she's an amazing person, mother, wife and christian. We have fun sharing stories and she's coaching me along on using my camera in Manual mode. Now i feel so silly at how intimidated i was about it. Thanks Deb, visit her sites and send her some love, also she is on facebook! Happy stalking!

3 am epiphany///what dieing your hair does///or mid 20's crisis?
So I am a bit confused right now, my hearts a little down.
I had Shawn cancel the "backorder" of the Canon 5DMII. I totally wish it would have come 6 weeks ago. See tuesday night I died my hair.. no I don't know what i was thinking! ( mid 20's mother of three crisis? )BUT THE CHEMICALS TOTALLY SEEPED INTO MY BRAIN.. Next day I was mad at myself to think I could be so happy at a silly decision as to buy a nearly $3,000 camera, when we have 3 little mouths to feed, bills to pay. And what if I don't make it?
Last year I started feeling out the possibility of being a pro photog. I loved it. and doors & windows were opening like crazy.
But you know what.. and this is the hard part..
i now have a 12 month old baby girl, that honestly ( tears ) i didnt invest alot of memory making with. She is a super content baby and has 3 + 4 year old brother and sisters that really keep her entertained, and i took advantage of that ALOT.. way to much.
and the worse mother of the year award goes to Julie G.
for what? to get a few minutes, okay.. hours in front of this lousy computer. Learning Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo, then Lightroom, even shutterfly.com to build my templates. for what?
i regret it, its a horrible feeling, and yes when i read peoples blogs or facebook status updates about their new 5DMII.. i get a twinge of jealousy, but you know what, maybe someday I'll get something spiffy like that. How imature of myself to allow my husband to show his love and belief in me to buy me such an expensive piece of technology.. I am going to earn my way, like i have all this life, im not going to cut corners or let the cart get before this horse. I mean come on. im just learning to use my XTI in Manual mode.. wow.. Yep, ive been using it in "P" mode for 1.5 years yay for me! Ok I'm done ranting, tomorrow shawn has off, we have a 1 yr old who has lot of teeth pain, and alot of memories to make, and fresh snow! Tomorrow is going to be the most beautiful day ever.. { say this every night before you fall asleep and you'll here your pillow make snap crackle poppy noises when your cheek slowly forms a peaceful hopeful smile!
living this life to love,
Julie G
PS- Dear Shawn, Please forgive me for allowing you to belive that you needed to buy me an expensive peace of technology to show your love. You dont, You believe in me and I know it, You are a great mailman, and wonderful father, and an outstanding husband. I so cherish your waking up in the middle of the night with your arms wrapped around me. You, God, and our three mugwumps are all this little woman needs!

The Bennett's!!
Yet another overwhelmingly cute baby boy!
Oh boys!
Cool quote to share: Mother's of boys are awake son up, to son down!
THIS IS THE TRUTH!
This is Kate, Dave and baby Hunter!
A very kind, young family I am pleased to meet! When you look at them, you see their love, watch them interact with one another, you can see the many blessings
that are on the way for them in this life.
Kate and I are new friends and have enjoyed some mommy-convo's as of late. When we got back to their home she whipped out her cool camera ( faster & more $$ than mine ) and now I have another Mamma-razzi friend!
Rock on! Ok so check out these pics, you will turn to mush apon seeing the abundance of supreme cuteness, love and you may just want to get started on adding on to that family of yours!
Babies make your whole world a better place!

The Ehret Family!!
Boys Boys Boys!!
Ok so even though Maive was born this year January. This has been the year of boys! An abundance of BEE-AAHH-UUUU-TeeeFUL baby boys!
This is the Ehret family featuring: Kaley, Wes, Griffin and drum roll please?....
LINCOLN!
How cool is that name! Baby L!
He is beyond adorable, it was all I could do to not freak Kaley out and just pick him and and hold him close and smell his yummy newness. On the way home I was thinking it would be nice to have another boy
< semi-contented sigh >
and preceded to think of the two names I like.. saying them outloud making sure they sounds as good as they do in my head.
Marbles?
oh babies. I do love them, gosh if i could, I'd make it a career---ok the marbles thing.. yeah they're rollin' 'round her somewhere!
Ok to the point, you want to see some lovley family pics of them dont you?
i thought so!
One more thing! I sooooo appreciated processing these pics. I think mostley because of the love, the love you can see they hold for each other, and well.. because Griffin is a fun kid! AND HAPPY, and just full of adventure! Enjoy the mommy baby moments ... oh its so good to be a mama. If you are one enjoy, reminisque, look forward to adding on to that family, if you havent had any yet be inspired and dream of the days to come!
What this world needs more of, is lovey squeeshy cheeked babys to love and cuddle, and make us mom's sleep deprived so we can share and journal funny stories! THIS IS THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES!
Thank you guys for having a small adventure with me, hopefully as these curious boys keep growing we can go on more of them!
Thankfully yours,
Jules
