Can we both marry daddy?

Here is a picture of my little bride. Ellie is obsessed with brides and marriage (she’s clearly seen one too many Disney and Barbie movies!). She was a bride for Halloween and wears the bride dress around the house ALL THE TIME. The other day she was “playing bride” and she asked me very seriously… “Mommy, can we both marry daddy?” “You want to marry daddy?” I asked. “Yes, because there aren’t any princes around here and grandma already married grandpa.”

Kenny thought her idea was pretty amusing….except that he was second to grandpa!

JUST DO IT!!!

So lately I’ve been in a bit of a rut. By “lately” I mean the last four years! Since I started having kids I’ve fallen into a bad habit of PLANNING and not DOING. I make constant “to-do” lists for these four areas….
Scrapbooking: I read my scrapbook magazines every month, cut out and dog ear pages with design or color ideas, take endless pictures of my family, write lists of layout ideas, save every ticket stub and hair lock and of course…spend TONS of money on scrapbook supplies. I just don’t scrapbook.

Cooking: Anyone who knows me well knows that I DESPISE cooking. I don’t enjoy it and I’ve never been good at it. I think it’s ridiculous to spend time and money and create a big mess in my kitchen on a meal that is over and done with in minutes. Most nights Kenny gets home well past dinner time and my girls only eat about three things anyway. Still…I feel guilty that I don’t make healthy dinners for my family so…I cut out recipes, plan menus and even at times buy the necessary groceries. I just don’t cook.

Reading: I used to love to read books and go to book club. Lately though, I only make lists of books I’d like to read and buy and borrow books. I just don’t read. (No Car, I haven’t started Twilight yet).

Blogging: I love to stalk blogs and check out what is going on with all of my friends. I think it is a great way to keep in touch with people. I also love that it is a family journal and record of all of the day to day stuff. So…I continue to read other people’s blogs, write down fun ideas for posts and think about how I’d decorate my blog. I just don’t blog.

Until now! I’m starting this blog hoping it will inspire me to stop just planning all of the things I want to do and take a little advice from Nike and JUST DO IT!
