Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jig!

I am SO glad to finally be home from a little trip away to see family and friends. I wanted to write a post to say that I would be gone for a few days, but life with an almost 3 month old makes me cut out every possible “unnecessary” thing sometimes! And blogging was exactly that as I scurried around to get everything packed and ready to go. Babies require so much gear…(diapers, wipes, outfits and extra outfits, stroller, car seat, moses basket to sleep in etc)…I guess it’s a good thing that I can’t fit in most of my regular clothes just yet…only a few select items to choose from!

We had a good trip. It was fun to show of my precious bundle of joy! He traveled SO well and stayed pretty much on schedule. He slept well at night too. I’m so thankful!

Since I was gone, I didn’t go grocery shopping. It’s one way to save money! (That’s my Super Savings Saturday….um…Sentence).

I am SO ready to get back into the swing of things! I need to clean up my house, do laundry, cook, do some deal-finding, couponing, blogging, pay some bills and LIVE my life! It was good to get away to re-focus on what is truly important…my relationship with God and my relationships with my husband and baby. It is more important than having a spotless house and completely folded laundry. I’m in the process of figuring out how to live in this season of my life. Having a baby changes so many things and it is oftentimes so overwhelming to me. So overwhelming, in fact, that it almost paralyzes me and I don’t know where to start. But this next week, I am determined to LIVE my life in peace, joy and much productivity!

AND…I just got an e-mail that I won something from the Ultimate Blog Party!! Woohoo!! I never win anything so I’m pretty pumped! I’ll let you know what it is!
