Babies grow too fast


The crying and the screaming, the days without sleep or peace. You wish away the minutes that overwhelm and just drag on.

But minutes turn into hours and hours into days, if your not careful you may wish your life away. 

Minutes may be stressful and can and should be wished away but don't let years get lost, to be mourned and wished for later on. 

Wish away some crying and anger or some fear but don't forget to hold on to minutes that you will hold dear

Hold onto a laugh, a smile and a peaceful sleeping child. The baby in your arms grows faster than you think. 

Hold onto lessons learned and jokes and love and even some tears. 2 weeks, 6 months, 3 years where have they gone?

Hold on to that baby who snuggles in so tight, take kisses hugs and snuggles from that toddler in the moments they sit still. 

These minutes don't last forever, they move along so fast. The cutest way they say that word, they may get right at last. 

So hold on to those moments that make your heart feel full, the repetitious moments that sometimes just feel dull. Let go of too much heartache and maybe a little stress. Babies grow too fast, so hold tight to all the rest.

Recycle Fashion Show

So me and two friends are is this class called Dress and Humanities. For one of the projects we had to use recycled material to make an outfit. After a few trials and misfires we came up with the idea to make  wedding dress out of coffee filters. Somewhere in the planning process I got volunteered to be the model...honestly I have no idea how this happened because I really did not want to be the one wearing this dress. But in the end I was the one wearing the dress (obviously) It ended up being really fun and I kinda pretty much looked awesome...just sayin...(you don't have to take my word for it, I will post them and prove it to you)

Vom Vass

So when I lived in Jackson Hole I found this store called Vom Vass. It is a cooking store that has tons of different spices, different oils, different vinegars, ect ect ect....Its is amazing!
Anyways, All summer I have been going into the store whenever I had a day off I would go into the store and sample different kinds or everything. So the morning that I was leaving I decided to actually buy something. Which leads me to tell you that I am currently eating fresh french bread dipped in Pepone Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Waldburg Raspberry Balsamic.....pretty much one of the best snacks in the world.
This also added to my fabulous lunch yesterday that included toasted bread, roma tomatoes. fresh buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil, and Raspberry Balsamic Reduction.....This store is changing my life....
My next thing to try is baked Salmon marinated in Calamansi Balsamic (calamansi is some sort of fruity thing that is amazing) with thyme, rosemary and bay leaves....
This store is changing my life!

...Boyfriend Jeans...

So the only jeans that I like are are American Eagle Boyfriend jeans and I ripped my last pair at the beginning of the summer. So of course I go straight to the nearest American Eagle to pick up my regular pair of jeans. But much to my dismay I looked around and couldn't see the Boyfriend Jeans anywhere! I calmly went to an employee and asked where I could find the boyfriend jeans. He proceeded to tell me that they longer carried them in their store. He smiled at me sadly as the realization sunk in and I started freaking out! After letting me freak out about my loss he informed that I could purchase them at some American Eagles just not theirs...who doesn't carry Boyfriend Jeans??? Everyone I know owns boyfriend jeans!
But anyways, after going to a few malls looking for my boyfriend jeans I am happy to say that I am sitting here typing this while wearing my Boyfriend jeans.

Crispy M&Ms...

So pretty much you shouldn't be surprised if most of my posts are about food....I have a thing with food...just saying...anyways

Crispy M&Ms are pretty much one of the best things ever invented and for some reason someone somewhere thought they could take them away from the US. This is supposed to be the place where dreams come true right What kind of dreams come true when they take away some of the best chocolate in the world? (I have also wondered this about DisneyLand, for some reason I was under the impression that the would have crispy M&Ms there since it is the happiest place on earth...but alas they did not)
But at this moment I am happily enjoying an oversized bag of Crispy M&Ms thanks to my sisters study abroad. I have been having thoughts of moving to London so I can enjoy my favorite treat....or at least have a little house there where once a year I can live and satisfy my craving.........

So...

I have no idea what to write on my blog...not to mention when I know that no one reads it. I got out my computer while I was watching T.V. (Greys of course) and as I was sitting here trying to type something freaking hilarious like the one of the blogs I stalk (namely Confessions from a Mormon Bachelor Pad) I realized that really I don't have that funny of a life and I am not good at making it funnier than it...isn't. So my new goal is to come up with something to put on my blog that would be fun to follow....the search has begun...
