Simply Sarah: September 2013
http://simplyshadoin.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
This past Monday was exactly two years. Two years from the day I met the man I would eventually marry. And I had No. Idea. At all. This was the first I ever saw of Jason. (On our vacation this past year, we went fishing on this exact boat. So cool! Reluctantly, I agreed to go with them. When we walked in, Stoney walked over to talk to him, and Hillery and I followed. I finally had to nudge them and say "Eh em! To introduce me. It was the usual greetings of "Hi's", "How are you's? And "Nice to meet you's".

Simply Sarah: September 2014

The last time I posted, I was 32 weeks pregnant. Now I am looking at this:. The last 7 weeks have been a whirlwind. It's been the longest, shortest 7 weeks of my life. Sometimes I feel like just yesterday we were walking in the hospital, and some days I feel like it was forever ago. (The latter are really, really long days.and nights.). This was the last picture we took - standing in Dad's office before we knew what was about to happen:. After an entire night of laboring and waiting, I was never more rel...

Simply Sarah: January 2014

Life, Love and Hats, Oh my! I'm not even going to say I'm sorry for not writing more often, because every time I promise to do better and then I don't do anything for weeks. In this case, 4 months. I want to, and I frequently think of things I want to share, but I just can't find the time. Call it like it is and let's move on -. There are many, many reasons I love my husband, just as I hope every wife has a list longer than the Nile for hers. I love that when I did this to my toe:. All The. Time....I lov...

Simply Sarah: Two Years
http://simplyshadoin.blogspot.com/2015/06/two-years.html
Although it feels like it's been two years since I posted, that's not what the title indicates. Today marks two years that this man changed my life. And my name. So much has happened in two years. The biggest being that we became a family of 5. Just today, on the morning of celebrating year #2, I heard this song for the very first time:. Oh, so sweet and such a beautiful post! Yall deserve all the happiness in the world. And, there is no doubt you will have it! Love yall and Happy Anniversary :). I am an...

Simply Sarah: October 2012

Or life lately, however you want to look at it. Just a recap of what's been going on. We found this little guy a couple of weeks ago. (Well, not we, but they.as in an 11-year- old and 9-year-old outside playing in the rain doing things that kids do.). It is a baby flying squirrel! He had a brother, or a sister, but he/she didn't make it through the first night. This one trooped a little longer, but eventually went to join all the other squirrels in squirrel heaven. He was a cutie though! No, really thoug...

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Really just the Bad and the Ugly.a/k/a the Truth. People tell you that having a baby is hard. "It's hard but it's the most rewarding thing you'll ever do." If you consider being thrown up on more times than you can count and having to change 3813408 dirty diapers a day with a high possibility of not being able to brush your teeth that day a reward, then by golly I've hit the jackpot. Honestly, I would sometimes find myself thinking "How hard can it really be? Dad explained...

A Right Of Passage. I think buying a car is almost like a right of passage; everyone needs to do it at some point or another. Well, I've passed on through it now.I have bought my very own first brand new car. And she's a beauty. So, after much deliberation, research, budgeting and prayer, I decided on this:. She is an Infiniti JX, and I LOVE it. No really, it was awful from the time I said "This is what I want". This is just the short version:. I ran my finger across the very back, and it came off black&...

Simply Sarah: Mommy Guilt Revision
http://simplyshadoin.blogspot.com/2015/03/mommy-guilt-revision.html
Carson has been a hard baby. Like, middle-of-the-night-meltdowns and crying all the time hard. And that's just me! The scariest time of it all was when he had RSV. It's sooo unsettling when you pack your sons diaper bag to leave by the door in case you have to make a trip to the ER in the middle of the night. (Shout out to my mom for taking a whole week off work to come help. It was a HUGE blessing.). And realized I just need to chill out. My mom has always told me a stressed out mom has a stressed o...

I haven't updated in 5 months, and here is a run-down of why. In the past 8 months, we have:. Yes, it's just mine. Jason still has his own. And I LOVE it. I just have to work on filling it up now. :). We have spent countless. Hours at ball parks all over LA. The oldest played travel ball, so that took up a lot of weekends. The youngest played in a local girls softball association, so that's where we spent many-a-week nights as well. It's beautiful. He (and Landry! We redid the guest bathroom:. Life has b...
