Make it Right Monday


Did you make any guesses? In case you were one of my two readers, I won't keep you in suspense much longer....

The lie was #2! Luke calls me nothing. lol. He isn't big into words or copying. He babbles all day in a very cute language. He is just a little too obstinate to give in to my demands. I ask him to say mom and he says dad. I ask him what a monkey says, and he will only tell me if we are driving in the car and he doesn't know that I can see him in the rear view mirror. Such a cute stinker. He is walking very well, and on a less busy week I'll post some pictures of the cuteness that is Luke.

Jordan did graduate and it is as sweet as it sounds! We celebrated with Friday and Monday off of work. We went to an Aviary and chased peacocks, had a BBQ with family and ate out far too many times. YAY for being DONE!!!!!! He is loving his job, so we will stick with it and enjoy the idea of never doing a homework assignment again. Even though I did J's homework, I think I'll force my kids to do their own:)

I also do only wear makeup on rare occasions. I sometimes wonder if I've let myself go, but then as the thought comes, my toddler lunges toward something dangerous and the thought is gone.

Have a wonderful week!!

Fiction Friday

Secrets and fibs have never been my thing. I get all excited about any surprise I may be planning that I always spill the beans. I blurted out that I was pregnant to my sister in an awkward moment of no self-control, when I was planning a fun reveal later in the week! I often buy my husband multiple birthday and Christmas gifts because I tell him what I got him the day I buy it, which sometimes is months in advance. I really have no business telling fibs. With this preface I introduce my new blogging format: 


Every Friday I will post "Fiction Friday" in a format commonly called "two truths and a lie." You will then have to wait with great trepidation for "Make it Right Monday" where I will right all wrongs and come clean about my fib. With any luck this will help me learn to keep a surprise for more than 5 minutes and I will be able to post regular updates in a fun format. Here goes nothing....

In no particular order...

1. Jordan finally graduated from college this week.
2. Luke is adorably calling me "Mommy!"
3. I have successfully worn makeup once this week.

Of course your guess isn't official unless you leave it in the comments.

Happy weekend, dear reader!
