Birthday Boy..7 years

It's hard to believe my "baby" turned 7 on Thursday!
I couldn't be more proud of of him! I mean look at that gorgeous little face! He is so much more than I could have ever hoped for. We feel so blessed to have such a awesome kiddo. I just love his sweet spirt, zest for life and his contagious laugh.






We spent 4 out of the last 7 days at the lake house. One of those days being T's birthday.


What more could a 7 year old want than to fish all day.

As much as he loves the lake he couldn't wait to get back home. Only because he wanted to go to Target to get his ipod touch!










This is one excited little boy! A proud owner of his very own ipod touch!!!! Yea!!! Now we all finally get our iphones back!

A blogging kind of day!

So here it is into the wee hours of the morning and I still can't turn my mind off. After a day like yesterday..even though it in fact was today since I haven't been to bed yet. Ahhhhhhh!!!! Yes, it was one of those days.
Not sure I'm a fan of being blindsided. While working out at the gym I get a phone call letting me know I will no longer be working for Stork vision. That they no longer have the funds to pay me. I did all the marketing targeting OB offices. My salary there paid for T's tuition. It was something I could do from home and bring T along when needed.
So this left me all day pondering the thought of how I was going to make this up in other areas?!?! Since we start paying tuition in August.
I already stay up into the wee hours of the morning at least 3-4 times a week for Sugar Plum. So instead of saving that money for in vitro it will go to T's school. Which is totally fine with me. T's school if worth every penny we pay! Now Sugar Plum is a must not a maybe.
Just putting us further and further away from in vitro.
On days like this it makes just wanna give up on that dream! It makes me want to scream at the top of my lungs...knowing I have no control over carrying another child in my womb. It makes me want to punch my computer screen and throw my iPhone after reading another one of my face book friends is expecting. Or another unfit mother is pregnant yet again. Even though she can't keep a job to support the kid she already has. It makes me want to face plant the next person who tells me it will happen when the times right. Shut the F up!!!! This isn't your life or struggle. I don't want to hear about rainbows, butterflies and all other positive BS you have to say. Walk 3 1/2 years in my shoes. Wishing for something you wanted yesterday and everyday before that. Praying on days like this that God would take the desire of wanting more children away. So I don't have to fight back tears when the lady at the playground ask why we don't have more kids? Like that's a choice I've made!
Today I've cried more than I have in a long time. I've been mad the majority of the day and have said more choice words than I can count. That's the raw unedited truth.
So don't judge me when I tell you ...instead of buying 1 new pair of shoes for T for back to school. That I'll probably buy 3 or 4 tomorrow at Nordstroms. Since I only have 1 pair of feet to buy for he might as well have at least 4 choices. This is my way to deal with it....retail therapy. It doesn't heal the heart but it sure distracts it!

10 reasons I hate Walmart

Dear Walmart,

You just reaffirmed all the reasons I hate you! No seriously!

1. You no longer carry my favorite deli meat: Sun Dried Tomato turkey breast
2. You never have Ozarka bottle water in stock
3. I had to look in 4 different place for Tostada shells. I mean shouldn't they be next to the taco shells.
4. I get to witness criminal activity while waiting in the checkout line...and so does my 6 year old. Which causes you to call all the cops in Burleson. Just to chase some punk teenager who is stealing a bag full of can goods. Hence leaving no one to protect the city from actual crime.
5. I have to stand in the checkout line for 30 mins. Not really sure what the reasoning is behind that. There are over 30 checkout lanes but only 3 of them are open?!?!
6. One of your bathroom is always being cleaned...and it is always the one I go to first. As often as you shut them down to be cleaned...why aren't they clean?!?! I try to avoid them at all cost but it never fails my kid has to go at least once while we are there. Which brings me to my next point.
7. Your store remodel sucks!!!! It turned my 45 min shopping trip into a 3 hour disaster!
8. You put a game room in the front of your store..why?! So all the parents lose their mind while waiting in the 30 min checkout line and listen to their kids beg to go play. Knowing the last thing we want to do is spend another moment in your store.
9. I have every employee ask me if they can help me find something but none of them actually knows where anything is.
10. Your greeter stops me on the way out and wants to check my recipt! WHat is this Sam's now? You honestly don't think I would be stealing anything. I know I didn't put make-up on this morning but I can't be that scary. Seriously...I don't understand your procedures. Why wouldn't you have stopped the people in front of me..all the signs were there. The wife beater as a shirt, the oversized bag and no shopping cart. No you stop the girl with pearl earrings, clean clothes and a well behaved child. OMG!!!!!

I haven't been in your store in I don't know how long. And you wonder why! Never again!
Super Target please hurry I need you! HEB it will be nice to have a back-up. There is no way people save money at Walmart. They waste to much of their time walking around looking for what they need.

Summer in the Moseley house is flying by fast! It's hard to believe July is nearly over! Blogging has taken a back seat for many reasons...


Quick trip to New Braunfels with the family. T had lots of fun with his cousins and it's always nice to get away. I'll post a few pictures I took later.

Matt and I celebrated our 7th Anniversary! We spent the weekend at the Omni downtown.


Ate dinner at Daddy Jack's...Yum!!

2 weekends at the Lake house...Matt's parents just finished their lake house on Richland Chambers..a little over an hour away. Matt and T are really enjoying all the fishing they been doing. I'm really enjoying the quality family time and just relaxing.
Yep..that's my boy. Caught a catfish..fishing in his underwear!

Haha...daddy caught a turtle!

I (okay my brother) finally hung that chandelier that's been in a box in my closet for 3 years. Originally suppose to go in my bathroom. I decided I would put it in the turquoise room or the playroom/sewing room. It looks amazing! I'll have to snap a quick picture...when I find my camera that is. Yep...I haven't been able to find it for a little over a week now.

Lots of sewing has been going on and a lot of late nights to go with it. I have finally taken the time to work on my SugarPlum blog. After putting it off for quit some time I just had to do it! People have been asking me left and right if I have a website...and finally there is something on there! So go check it out and become a follower! SugarPlum just introduced the "Cupcake Couture" and it's just too sweet for words.And for all of my blog stalkers on here become a follower too! I know there are lots of you out there because you call me when I don't blog :) lol!
I am way behind on the back to school wagon. I haven't purchased not 1 thing! I did a little looking online at Pottery Barn kids today. Pretty sure I've finally decided on a backpack for T with a matching lunch box of course. I really want to get his named monogrammed on it. Is he to old for that?
And with July coming to an end summer doesn't look as if it's going to slow down at all. This weekend is Melissa my SIL's baby shower for baby Brody! So that means I have to get his bedding finished by Saturday. Along with picking up everything we need for the shower. I'm helping my MIL throw it. Then the next weekend is T's birthday party! Since his invites are in the mail I'll give a sneek peek of them tomorrow. Ohhhh they are cute!
Goodnight!

7 years

It's been 7 years ago today that I married the love of my life!

Wow it sure has just flown by!

Thank you babe! You have given me a beautiful son and a wonderful life. There isn't anything more I could ask for. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. I love you more today than I could have ever imagined 7 years ago. With every year my love, appreciation, respect and admiration grow more and more! By no means do we have a perfect marriage...no one does. It's not always butterflies and roses...it's just real! Thanks for loving me, putting up with me and spoiling me rotten!

I'm looking forward to our weekend get-a-away!

Here is to many many more years with you! I look forward to growing old with you.!

I love you!
XOXO
