My hand mixer died
....again....
This is the 5th hand mixer I've lost in 6 years
-dang Christmas divinity, gets em every time!
-or Valentine's sugar cookies
-or Thanksgiving crescent rolls
It always happens at the worst time! 
*fall/winter*
I need to bake SO much more then
It's cold after all!
Anyway I've been doing a little more research
-which usually leads to me justify-ing-ly
spending more money.
Since I don't have a stand mixer 
I usually buy hand mixers with high wattage
-so it's more powerful right??
ANYWAY
I think this time I'll actually be investing in a DC mixer
rather than AC 
So the wattage isn't as high 
HOWEVER
the wattage it DOES pull is far more effective
ya follow me?
DC (direct current)=less watts, yet more effective= :)
I think if I would've just got one originally it would've paid for itself by now.
I'm liking this one.
It's on kitchenaid's clearance (refurbished)
-which I'm cool with because it's a $100 mixer
that's going for $40 :)
which is only 2x's the cost of a crap mixer I'd just break next fall any how :)

I support whatever decision you make, but seriously, get yourself a stand mixer. I have had mine since college and my mom had it before that. They last a LONG time!

You totally need a stand mixer! The Kitchenaid ones are not that much and I love mine!! I love it better than a bosch! Plus if you think of how many times you have to replace your hand mixer you'd be better off to just get a stand mixer. Also with the kitchenaid stand mixer you can use it for all the things you mix with beaters and it's bowl and beaters can go straight into the dishwasher so it's an easy clean up!
Love you!!

So we just found out the other day that we're expecting our second child. I don't really know what to say because it doesn't feel like a reality, I'm still trying to grasp the thought that I have one! Anyrate I am due the 6th of March which seems so far away! I am so excited! I am also struggling with tons of feelings of anxiety and some worries, like will Law feel replaced or feel I don't love him as much? Will I love them both equally? etc. etc. Did/Do any of you have worries like this? How do I help Law cope with pregnancy and a new sibling? Any advice?

I REALLY don't like it when.....

MOMS, YOUR THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS NEEDED! A few months ago I was in Walmart :P with three VERY small children. Law was being a very happy playful self -which is rare so I REALLY enjoy these moments. Not bothering anyone or anything just being happy, laughing, and playing  when an old man came around the corner and SH'd him harshly it caught him off guard he was scared and sad. I didn't do anything -not because I agreed with the man that he needed to 'SSHHH!!' but because I just didn't know what to do! I have regretted not saying something to that man ever since. We are a loud family and Law does have a big voice but he didn't need to do that it was rude and uncalled for. Today I visited that same Walmart for the first time since then and my boys were running around the cart as I was checking out -just being happy, not being destructive at all -and believe me I'd be the first to admit if they were being too rowdy -it's not uncommon. However this time, lik...

Our Trip to Texas

My eldest sister Diana moved to Texas last year with her six children who, since I spent time growing up with them, are like my little sisters and brothers! Now my other big sister Maria moved down there too! I love them all and miss them so much! Law and I had a chance to go and visit them for a whole WEEK! It was wonderful, so in this blog I am going to tell you a little bit about what we did, as well as tell you a little about my nieces, nephews and my big sisters! Since Maria was going to be moving down there she and Kennadee came to stay with us so we could all fly down together. I was so excited that someone was coming to see my new house that I went crazy cleaning everything! which didn't last long... I don't know if you can tell but those are tiny baby foot prints on my woodfloor -cute! We arrived in Austin where Diana and Aaron were waiting for us and drove to Hutto, where my two sistas now live! I love that the have water towers EVERYWHERE! We'll start with the k...
