Remember the below post about the surprise date night?  Well, what I did not mention at the time was that it was a celebration.  What were we celebrating?   Get ready! With Amelia we were going to start trying to get pregnant in February and ended up pregnant two months early in December.  So when baby #2 took a little longer, it was a little frustrating.  But now I am 7 weeks pregnant and sick

Thursday morning Ben came into the bathroom while I was in the shower and said "Hey Babe" and I rolled my eyes.  "Hey Babe" is usually followed by a statement that aggravates me "Does Amelia need to eat?" "Are you almost done?"  "Why don't you make some coffee?" "I will not be home until late" etc, etc....  Honestly, none of these require eye rolling but it is what I do.  Babe and Mama are two

As I mentioned, we are on a job hunt.  Most days we are very excited about the opportunities.  It is exciting to think about where God will use you next.  Will we be in the same town?  Will we be in the same state?  What will we think if we have to move?  Ben has by far been more faithful than I have during this little test in our lives.  He carries on like a job is in the future and I walk

Where in the world have I been?  When I logged in there was a blog that was still in limbo called "February is for Birthdays".  So, I've been a little busy.  Let's play catch up real quick...  Seriously, I am pulling out my momAgenda because February seems like ages ago. In February I celebrated my 32nd year and Mom celebrated her 51st.  My birthday was pretty low key which was nice. But wait,

Yesterday I did not have the energy to wash my hair because we had a party from about 2:45am to 4:45am. At some point during feeding Amelia breakfast or getting her down from the table or changing her clothes I got honey in my bangs (or the front of my hair, whatever that part is called). I was so “whatever” by that point that I just ran my fingers through it and considered it hairspray. I will

How many times must one person say how much they hate doing laundry before it just goes away?  I know my husband gets sick of me complaining, but he wear SO many clothes (work clothes, farm clothes, around the house clothes).  And he is a tall guy so they are big clothes and they fill up the machine faster.  It's just more than I can handle at this moment, so I decided to blog instead.  Take that

Speaking of Help.  Have you read The Help?  It is a great read!  Speaking of reads, I am now the proud owner of a Kindle.  I was a Santa gift.  I love it and I am on the search for a cute case for it.  Kindle Owners, have you noticed the Nooks have much better cases?  I wonder if they are interchangeable?  Like I said, I love the Kindle, just not quite sure I am ready to give up books.  They are

One of Amelia's most favorite parts of the day is bath time.  About 5 or 5:30 she will start asking for "ba" pointing to the bathroom.  Usually I am getting dinner ready so I have to distract her.  I really should not be surprised as I live in the bathtub (especially during the winter).  It is definitely more cost effective to take 3 baths a day rather than running the heat at 73. That is my

I will say this almost every single day until it warms up, "I can not stand winter!"  I know it has it's purpose and it is nice for a cool down every now and then but a whole season is absurd.  I wouldn't say that I totally get the winter blues, but I do moan and groan and boo-hoo an awful lot.  Which makes us do things like sit on our couch New Years Eve, decline offers to go to dinner with

As I say every single year, the end of the year gets the best of me.  Work is busy, holidays are nuts and I am exhausted.  So, now that I have enjoyed my winter blogging break, it is time to come out of hibernation and catch you up...

This year's Thanksgiving was just as wonderful as the rest have been.  More so.  It does seem like they get better and better with each year.  As a child I was not a huge fan of Thanksgiving.  I did not like the majority of the food served and my simplistic mind thought the day was simply about lunch.  In my opinion, there just was not much to be thankful for. Every year since Ben and I have

Last week I blew the leaves in the backyard.  It was the 3rd time this fall. Each time it is more and more work.  As soon as I would get an area completely clear the wind would blow and more would fall.  We have huge old trees in our yard that are so beautiful.  I mean they really are amazing!  But what is even more amazing is the number of leaves in the dang things.  Here I was with Amelia's

It's official, Amelia has a case of the crummies.  There is nothing seriously wrong with her to consider her sick, but she feels absolutely 100% crummy... for at least 10 mins an hour... and she is a drama queen. Seriously, she has some drainage and a little bit

But we are all toasty in the inside!  Today Amelia had her first sippy cup of hot chocolate.  I only gave her a little bit of mine and she cried when it was gone.  I do that too sometimes! :)  I am guessing she liked it. Our frontier man just left to go to the farm, or perhaps a roadside pick-up truck if he passed one of those first, to get a load of firewood.  Tonight will be our first fire

On this day 33 years ago in Dothan, AL a boy was born.  Who would have known that this boy would grow up to be my most favorite person on this earth?  He makes me laugh, calms me, encourages me and helps me take this crazy life a little less seriously.  He loves me, takes care of me and helps me raise our baby.   And he is a fabulous dancer!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Since my child will not keep anything on her head, we did not have a huge selection of baby Halloween costumes.  I was browsing the internet and saw this cute little ghost tutu ensemble and thought, "I can totally make that!"  And I did...  She is supposed to have a big orange polka dot bow on her head, but she hates all things on her head.Usually we can sneak a little bow in.

Ummm... not in my world.  Do you watch Modern Family?  I felt like we were the only ones on the planet that do not  watch it so this week we tuned in.  What a funny show!  I'm not sure if it was super-funny just for Halloween or what, but it is now set on the DVR.

This weekend we went to Mobile to visit our family's farm and corn maze.  We took Amelia's picture in the same cow photo frame as last year.  Look at the difference a year makes... 2010  2009 It is unbelievable how fast it happens. They just grow up before you know it! Below is a picture from this past Sunday.  These babies will graduate high school together.  Some 2028 and some 2027.  Next

By the way... Owls are my new fall mascot. I admit they are kinda creepy, but I've become obsessed with them this fall. I'm sure it is someones awesome marketing skills that did it to me. I generally don't even like retro stuff, but for this fall we are going for some throwback owls.And we have one that camps out somewhere near our house. Sometimes he is so loud that he wakes me up.

This saying has become way over used but that is because it is adorable! I love it and will use it as much as possible.I have not been in hiding these past few weeks. Instead I have been in H-E-double hockey sticks. I am sure most of you do not remember your molars coming through but apparently it is quite painful. That or my child has inherited my fantastic drama skills when it comes to pain.

This time our church was helping sponsor the trip so there was a lot of talk around church and town about it. Ben asked Grandpa if he would like to go and jumped right on the opportunity.

We hate we missed the big day, but have really enjoyed the pictures. SO PRETTY!Anyway, it was a really relaxing weekend around the house. We had friends over Friday and Saturday.

Amelia took her first 2 steps of Independence on July 21 but those were the only 2 for a while. The night of her 1st birthday she took about 6 or 7 steps without realizing it. We are now at 1 year and about 3 weeks and she is walking all over the place. Well, she has a little swagger, but it's cute. She gets where she needs to go.

I tell you what, life in general is total learning experience. I no longer feel guilty about not taking home economics in school because I have friends to educate me.I delivered my $5 Ingles dis-advantage dinner last Tuesday. It was really, really good with the exception of the rolls. This was a big bummer for me because I wanted them to be a hit. They are these melt in your mouth sour cream

A friend called me frantic at 7:00 tonight. She committed to making a diaper cake and realized she had no idea how to make one and remembered she needed it done by tomorrow. I am SO glad I am not the only person who does things like this.Luckily I have made one other one in my whole life so I am practically a pro.

Mom calls me on a pretty regular basis to tell me where I need to buy my groceries. She reads the sales ads backwards and forwards and gets some amazing deals.Many times she has told me to go to Ingles. Ingles is about 15 miles from my house which isn't far, but it's not right around the corner. When you move to a small town you get used to not making a commute. Plus I have to pass 3 other

I'm thinking is it not going to get much better than this. A Strawberry Shortcake television! Do you know how awesome Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt would have looked on this jewel?I may by it for our room. I will just put it on my side of the bed. No football on this tv! I don't really think it would be great for our marriage to have 2 tvs in our bedroom, but it's not a bad thought.

Amelia just completed her first full week of school. She is going to a preschool program at a church in town from 9-1. It is perfect for my schedule and we are excited about her being involved with other children.The week started a little rough because she still has not given up that morning nap. We heard "she is so sweet, but she doesn't want to go to sleep when she is tired". Yes, we know.

I am so mad at myself. In a moment of weakness I did it. I didn't mean to, it just happened. There were no other options at the time and I stopped. I spent 30 mins of my life watching Kate manage her fleet of children and those are 30 mins I can not get back. I will admit, I was obsessed with those cute little babies for many years and I was always intrigued my their marriage. She was so

First I have to say that I LOVE Urban Dictionary. Everytime I am about to use some spunky lingo or wording I do there to make sure I have the slang spelling correct. This is how partay is defined... The other definition of party. In times of today, a party is usually associated with alcohol, drinks, drugs, sex, etc. A Partay is a party without drinks, drugs, or anything considered inappropriate

I have to set the alarm for 6:30am. It's been a while since I've done this. I usually wake up with the birds but lately the Comerford house has not rolled over until 7:15 or so. I am still blaming the heat for everything.Tomorrow I am working 8-12 so I can leave an go to Open House at Amelia's Pre-School.

I just colored my own hair. I've done this about 5 times in my whole life. I stress the entire 15 mins (because I will not leave it on the instructed 25 mins) and it's never really that bad. It does seem that no matter which shade I use it always comes out the same color. I always thinks it has a hint of red in it. My real life hairdresser once said she would put more "ash tone" in my hair to

As part of my service hours I am required to price and sort for our annual Attic Sale. I headed out Monday night to do my first pricing and sorting shift of the year. Attic Sale gets a lot of grunts and complaints but I love it! Usually I work with someone I really don't know that well and that is always fun. Plus it raises a load of money for charity. And to top it you find some pretty

It's a new day!! Turns out Amelia had Roseola. High fever, then rash. I hate for her to be sick but I'm glad to know she did have a sickness rather than it being me who caused an allergic reaction with bath wash.She still had the rash yesterday. It was not a pleasant day, but it was definitely not the worst. I would post a picture but she spent the entire afternoon completely naked while I

I spent all week teaching some amazing children at Vacation Bible School this week. Our church's theme was Galactic Blast off and it was a blast! We made "moon balls", we blew the lids off film canisters (seriously, they hit the ceiling tiles) and we even made slime!Just thinking about the energy bottled up inside these sweet kids makes me tired. What a wonderful gift it is to be able to help

I sat in my living room floor this morning with tears in my eyes and slowly running down my face. I stood in the kitchen this afternoon crying over dinner. I am tired or frustrated or aggravated or sad or mad... who knows! I have decided my Mommy Juice is depleted. I have heard in marriage studies about love tanks and you must continue to fill one another's because if you don't want to run on

My baby starts "school" on the 23rd. She is going to a Preschool program from 9-1 at a church here in town. I got her school supply list last week. It was typical for a 1 year old, wipes, paper towels, hand sanitizer, etc. BUT she also has to have a backpack (or a bag but we are going with a backpack) I know I will eventually dread seeing a school supply list, but the first one was exciting.

And it begins... it's the evening after the first League Board meeting of the year. I love the League and I don't mind meetings of any sort really, but I hate having Monday commitments. On the first Monday of every month my office has an 8:00am meeting and I end with a 5:30pm League meeting. I just think any extra effort on a Monday is a bad idea. Just my opinion.This was a great meeting. We have

How is your summer? I am definitely from the south and I NEVER complain about hot weather. I HATE winter. I am miserable about every single second of it. I have never wished the summer away. Then came 2010. This space age heat has to go. Have you ever been this hot in your life? We love to be outside and at the beginning of the summer we were strolling to the ice cream shop and swimming.

The week after July 4th Nana and Pa took all the Comerford's to St George Island. It was our first trip there and it was wonderful! There is not a lot to do on the island and that makes it wonderful. No crowds and no traffic = happy girl! And the coolest thing is that there are seashells everywhere. Big ones! It was really neat. Once again Amelia did not like the beach. She

Thank you to all who have and who continue to serve our country so that we may be free today. Today at our dinner table we prayed for all of you. We thanked you for your service, that you take time away from your families so that we may be with ours. We prayed that you all get home safe and that you get home soon. Bless you all!

And when you think the week can't get any worse.... You are tired, you ache, you are just absolutely spent. The Good Lord gives you a reminder of what it's all for. Somehow the Mommy magic kicks in and you completely forget about the horrible, bad week you have had. This is what I found when I went to check on Amelia before going to bed. She's had a hard week.

I have been a horrible mother this week (and wife too for that matter). Amelia is trying to cut 2 more bottom teeth. She has screamed, whined or fussed for the majority of the week. Seriously, there has been much more bad than good this week. The Lord was so gracious to bless me with an amazingly wonderful infant. He knows I can only handle so much. Perhaps He has moved the notch on my

We had our new youth pastor and his wife (who by the way is one of the sweetest couples) over for dinner last week. The best part is that they have only been married a week which means she is just learning to cook, which means my cooking doesn't seem all that bad. :)I gave them the latest addition of our local cookbook as a welcome gift so that meant I had to cook recipes from it.

He has been a Daddy for 10 months now. What a great Daddy he is! I have known him for almost 6 years, and he has been an amazing husband for three and a half years. I had no idea he had more to give, but he does, every single day. I am so blessed to have that man in our lives!

It is now fixed but it is 5 days slower than Christmas (which, by the way, is not all that show anymore). So, I will just post as is...We went to the beach the first weekend in June.

I know that she is probably too young, but I have been waiting to paint these toes since the day I brought her home from the hospital.Since Dolly Pardon was on Oprah today especially for Amelia's 9 month birthday AND had a guest appearance by Kenny Rogers singing "Islands In The Stream", we decided we had to do something fabulous!

The Cowboy is at his monthly cowboy meeting so I'm fending for myself. I thought about going to drive thru and then thought of the work it is to load baby girl up, then got over it.

She stands there bouncing on her little chunky knees like she is dancing.We have found our new favorite tv channel which is a Music Choice channel called True Country. It is all 80's and 90's country music. We laugh about how cheesy 80's country was but sing every word to every song that comes on. It's fantastic!We have had

It's been a few months since I've done one of these. It is so hard to believe that on April 21st our little girl turned 8 months old! We celebrated Amelia's birthday eating pizza with Katy, Lonnie and Molly (Katy even sang happy birthday to Amelia). Molly is 6 days older than Amelia.

Last weekend we had a family getaway to visit our friends Brandon and Kelly. They have a lake house a little over 2 hours from us. Since we are so adventurous (insert sarcasm) we took the scenic route that took WAY longer but was so pretty.

I wore a shrug over my dress and almost burnt up!Easter starts in our house on Palm Sunday. I absolutely love Palm Sunday service. When those sweet little kids come down the center aisle in church it makes my heart melt. I kept thinking that next year Amelia just

First... To clarify, I think being Holy is incredibly awesome. I just feel like today for me has been more awesome than Holy (not that its right or a good thing). It just is what it is.It's like 80 something degrees outside! Usually we get our last cold snap on Easter weekend, but not this year! What a Great Good Friday! Amelia and I had a picnic lunch outside on the porch. Then Grandpa and I

I am at my parents house tonight blogging from my Mom's laptop. How in the world did I get left behind in the world of technology by my Mothers?Not only does my Mom have a super-cool laptop, but my Mother-in-Law got a Kindle for her birthday this week. I have not bought my book club book in 2 months in hopes that I would breakdown and buy a Kindle. I found a new one on Craigslist for $160.00.

One of the blessings of working part time is that it gives me a lot of Mama-Daughter time. This Saturday I had a whole day of Mama-Daughter time, but I was the Daughter instead of the Mama! Amelia stayed with her Daddy and my Mama did my hair and fed me lunch. She also tried to dress me but it was not a successful shopping trip. Belks of McDonough, you need a new shopper! Saturday morning I

Back in January me and 3 friends went to St Simons Island. This was a fantastic trip that I should have blogged about but that was during hibernation (see previous blog for explanation). It started out as an idea to go buy clothes for the children, but turned into a much needed break for a group of girlfriends. We stayed at the King and Prince, shopped and ate with the locals and enjoyed general

The Hubby and I had been dating a little over a month when he brought me to his hometown for a Friday night football game. It was the big rival game so I thought this was going to be a social event. It was social but more so it was football. I was stunned and continue to be amazed at how big high school sports are in our town. The football stadium was the biggest thing I had seen for high

I absolutely can not believe my little baby girl is 6 months old. Sometimes I think about it and its as if she has always been around and in other ways it seems like she just got here. No one is lying when they say Motherhood is the hardest, yet most rewarding job you will ever have. This little girl has brought a joy into our home that we would have never experienced any other way. That being

There aren't too many things that get me completely bent out of shape. I am a woman therefore I can turn overly-emotional in a second flat. But I tend to consider myself a pretty happy gal. HOWEVER, if you do not let me sleep or do not feed me I turn into this crazy beast.The love-child has been waking up every night (morning) since the holidays around 2am.

There is something special about going back home. I love being at my parents house, sleeping in my room, sleeping in my room with my girl cuddled up with me, riding the streets of Snellville (that now have WAY too much traffic on them). I seriously hope I can talk my husband into continuing to spend Christmas Eve night there because Santa totally comes to Snellville each and every year. I know he

I am a fan of Taco Bell, don't deny it you know you love them too. If not, your loss. Today was a little much even for me. The lady at the drive thru today totally smelt like feet. Really, it was bizarre! It was the odor the the Hubby has when he comes home from the farm and takes his work boots off. Speaking of... Dear Red Wing Boots: for as much as we pay for you, you should come with

The doorbell rang today. I looked through my peep hole and saw 2 cute girls on my doorstep. This is a lot better than the very nice, but somewhat sketchy guy that comes by wanting to rake the yard. However, that is a great segway for me to tell my husband that me and Amelia would be much safer during the day if he would do a better job on the lawn... it never flies. Anyway, the 2 cute girls

For New Years Eve our friends, The Meeks, invited us to their family beach house for a long weekend. It was a much needed break from the November to February work madness. Plus, we love our friends. They also have a baby girl so it was perfect. We also rode girls in one car, boys in the other so it was a fun 4.5 ride of girl time for us. Here are some pictures from our wonderful trip.Ryan,

I hate winter. I really do. I realize the Good Lord created winter for a reason and I'm sure it's great for everything to die back and re-grow in the spring. BUT, does it have to last this long?! I honestly think I get a mild case of the winter blues so I just stay put. I hate winter clothes... Itchy sweaters are awful and blue jeans never fit me right. Which means I just stay in my house where

Amelia spent her 3 month birthday with Grandma and Grandpa. My Mom's company has a family Christmas party every year and Mom wanted to take Amelia to show off. Did I mention I have never been invited to this party?! I mean I suppose I am here just to birth Grandbabies. ha! Just kidding :) We celebrated our 3 month break with peaceful dinners, sleep and house cleaning. I always think that

We have had some really beautiful days this fall and two Sundays ago was one of them. I decided our family should skip church to get out and enjoy the creation of our Creator. It's not often we choose to skip church, but I just needed a break from our town, our house and all that is part of the normal routine. We got up and had breakfast then got dressed and were off. We are blessed to live

When we found out we were pregnant we both vowed not to let our baby sleep in our bed. I know it works for some of you. I swear I slept with my Mom until I was in middle school and I still get up on Saturday mornings when I'm there and go get in the bed with her. But, our little girl was going to sleep in her own bed and she does... through the night on top of that!Unfortunately... we are not

Sometimes it just seems like your world is caving in. It can be your fault for over-committing or just a bad day or really nothing at all, just crazy emotions over little-bitty things. Whatever it is, down right sucks when you are in the midst of it.Sometimes all it takes to fix it is to sit in the bathtub with aromatherapy salts that says "Brighten your mood" (yeah, good try) and a beer...

Do you ever shop the Dollar Aisles at Target? You definitely should! The Comerford budget loves and requires bargains but regardless, there are some cute things on the dollar aisles. My kitty dishes are from the dollar aisle as are some of my plastic cups and fun socks and maybe some of your birthday gifts! HA!

Do you recycle? I feel like it has become the trendy thing to do. I know it saves the earth and all, but it's like you aren't cool if you don't recycle. Personally, I really don't but I'll find myself acting like I do to fit in. For example.. while drinking beer at a friend's house I say something like "Do you recycle bottles?" instead of "Where is your trash can?" only because people ask that at

Today Amelia had her 2 month check-up and 3 shots. Boo! Our appointment with Dr. Karyn was great because she is always so sweet and fun. Amelia weighs 13 lbs and is 24.5 inches. It is amazing how fast they grow. She is in the 90% for height and weight and is basically a 4 month old that is 2 months old. It must be all those good groceries I provide! Maybe the Big Macs?! :)After the check-up the

Our first Halloween was a little more of a trick than a treat. Even though our little lovebug looks like the sweetest treat you've ever seen, it was all a trick. She was a grump! Maybe it was because she didn't sleep well Friday night. Maybe it was because I was lazy and didn't keep her on schedule Saturday afternoon. Maybe it was because it rained all day and she is sick of the rain. Who knows

Our local art museum had an event called Bedazzled last Saturday. Me and the Hubs got dressed up (and I mean shaved the legs, perfume, mascara, eye shadow with some sparkle and a fancy shirt dressed up!), left Amelia with Nana and Pa and headed out for a night on the town. It was so much fun. The art was yarn art, which was very cool, the wine was fantastic and friends were all over the place.

On Oct 19th I went back to work. Honestly, I was excited about it until the week before, then I got sad. Well, it was kind of mixed reviews... I was bored at home and missed my job but I was sad to be on a schedule where I HAD to work and HAD to be away from home. While I know staying home full-time is not a lifestyle for me (unless we win LOTS of money and I can be a lady of leisure with a

She is so funny and encouraging and can always make you smile. She gave our little girl Amelia a great reminder that we pray will stick with her all through life...

We set out for Athens at 10am on Saturday. Blue skies were everywhere. We were so excited to be on our way to a beautiful gameday in one of the greatest cities around. We dropped Amelia off at Grandma and Grandpa's, purchased necessities for mimosas and were 78 bound... then the sprinkles started.

Everyone says loving a child is a love you've never felt before and they are right. We can not imagine life with out this sweet little girl.
