Day 13 of 30

Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently

I honestly can't even get into this, because this person hurt a "friend" in a way NO WOMAN should EVER do. It would honestly go something like this...

Dear backstabber,

KARMA.

Have a nice life,

Heather

I know its wrong to hang on to such negative feels towards a person, and I'm really not. I don't dwell on what she did to hurt me and I rarely think of her and like to think she never existed. My "letter" says it all. I can let go and move on, because thats what karma is for. It means I don't have to lift a finger, it'll take care of it for me.

Day 12 of 30

Day 12- How you found out about blogs and why you made one

I use to blog on Myspace a bit, and then I found out there were whole sites for it. When I joined Justmommies.com, I loved looking through and reading the blogs I found in the signatures. Eventually I made my own and I'm working on getting in the habit of posting more. I have a hard time of thinking of topics, I'd like to post stuff that people actually want to read. :)

Day 11 of 30

Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends

Just 2, and they're old. I miss these ladies, life is so busy it's easy to lose touch. :(

Day 10 of 30

Day 10- Songs you listen to when you are Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped, Mad

Its really hard to narrow down just ONE song I listen to for each mood. It all depends on why I'm sad or mad. I listen to a lot of country when I'm sad, the "my dog died, my truck don't run, and it won't stop raining" kind of songs.

Happy, I love to listen to the new stuff. Its not called "pop" anymore, but the bouncy, dancing and singing in the car while people are looking at you like you're an idiot, kind of stuff.

Bored, I just put it on Pandora.com and type in a random name of a band and let it play through.

Hyped, totally rap. When I get the rare night out, I crank it ALLLLLL the way up and of course, dance in the car.

When I'm mad, its probably more country or some hard rock. Just depends on why I'm mad.

Day 09 of 30

Day 09- Something you’re proud of in the past few days

I haven't really done anything interesting in the past fews days. I am super proud of these adorable pictures I got today!!!

12 weeks and 2 days. Not the best quality b/c I snapped them with my phone. I hope to get some more later. Heartbeat was 152 beats per minute. He/she looks so much like a baby now! I never get tired of ultrasounds. :D

Day 08 of 30

Day 08- Short term goals for this month and why.

To eat better. I haven't really been eating a lot and when I do its rarely something "good for me". I know I'm pregnant, but this is the first trimester and I'm trying to give the baby what it wants because if I don't I'll be hugging the toilet.

To clean the toilets. I do this at least once a week, I think I need to do it more.

Organize Rileigh's room. Its clean, until you open the closet, I really need to get on the ball with that.

Start working on potty training Gavin. He's showing interest, I'm just not really pushing the issue. I think if I put him in his Cars big boy undies and actually started making a fun deal out of it, he'd be potty trained. I rushed Rileigh and she regressed after she was trained, I just don't want that to happen to him.

Day 07 of 30

Day 07- A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you.

This is an easy one. :) I don't have 1 picture though, I have a 4.

I don't really think I have to explain this too much. My husband, Robert, changed my life by marrying me and giving me our 4 children. Each of my children have added something new and special into my life, and I couldn't image life without them.

Day 06 of 30

Day 06- Favorite super hero and why

I'm gonna go sorta new-age with this. She's not a classic super hero, but she's my favorite. Why? For the simple reason that she has three kids, and they all have super powers as well. She can handle super speed, invisibility, force field shield, and a crazy fire baby that turns into a demon. Can we say, Mom of the Year Award? Its hard enough taking care of 3 kids without superpowers, and all she can do is stretch. I must say that something that would definitely come in handy; however, I think I'll stick with the non-stretchy power and the kids without the superpowers.

My favorite super hero is Elastigirl, the best Super Mom out there!!

Day 05 of 30

Day 05- A picture of somewhere you’ve been to.

I haven't been to a whole lot of places, and this is probably sorta lame to choose, but I'm choosing the Georgia Aquarium. It was so beautiful and I really loved going!! I can't wait to take the kids back now that Rileigh and Gavin are older, I'm sure they would have a blast!!! I've also posted a picture of the tunnel, it was my favorite part!

Day 04 of 30

Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn’t have

I bite my nails. I do it when I'm bored, nervous, stressed, mad, and just about every other annoying emotion. I've done it for as long as I can remember and I've actually gotten myself to stop at times. I love letting my nails get long and pretty, but I always end up biting them again! I'm not a huge fan of fake nails either. I would really love to find something that would help me stop biting them for good. They grow so fast when I'm pregnant that now would be a great time, its just hard because most of the time, I don't even realize I'm doing it.

Day 03 of 30

Day 03- A picture of you and your friends

This one doesn't really need much explaining, but I'm gonna add a caption anyways. I don't hang out with my friends as much as I'd like, Jenn lives far away and the kids keep me pretty busy. So, when we get the rare night out, someone always makes sure to snap a picture!

Leslie, Linda, Me, Brittney

This is an old one and Jenn doesn't like it a whole lot. However, its the only one I really have of us. Next time she's in town we MUST get another one! Jenn is on the left, I'm on the right. :)

Day 02 of 30

Day 02- The meaning behind your blog name.

Let's see, I sorta have two. The one in my url is Heatherw9705. That one is pretty simple! My name, the initial to my last name, and the day I married my husband. :) The title of my blog, is Butterfly Kisses. Thats from the Bob Carlisle song that I adore! My kids are getting so big, so fast; and its just a reminder to enjoy the little things before they're all grown up and I lose these days forever. I also have a quote at the bottom of the title, "There is no way to be a perfect mother, and a million ways to be a good one". This is to remind me that every mother does make mistakes. So if I leave a diaper on longer than I wanted, or forget to wash the pair of pants Rileigh begged me for, I don't feel "as" bad. There is no such thing as the perfect mother, because there is no such thing as perfect. I do what I can, the best that I can, and I have happy, healthy, secure and beautiful children, and thats all I can ask for.
