A Year In Review

I'm looking back on the crazy year that was 2012.  As I look back, I see that yes, my life is absolutely insane, but I love it!



Post the first sentence of your first blog post of each month. You can also add a favorite picture from each month.


January

Last night, we got Sydney to sleep around her actual bed time, but Ben wanted to stay up and party.





February

On February 14, 2012 at exactly 8:15 am we welcomed Rylie Jane Tiemann into our crazy family.




March

I'm sure any of you out there with kids knows that when you add a new baby to your family there is a busy adjustment phase. 




April

Most of the time I'm pretty laid back and don't act like much gets to me.




May

Well last week was quite a week!  Thankfully this week is much slower.




June

Yesterday was an amazingly spontaneous day.  I love weekend days like that.




July



Absolutely Exhausted and Completely Sleep Deprived  That's the life of a parent, right?





August

This week has been a blur of time flying and all kinds of emotions.  I'm not going to bring drama to my blog, it already happened with Facebook, but I will say that I don't think my family will ever be the same again, and maybe, just maybe that's for the best.  




September

Shawn went to play football with some friends this morning and this afternoon we are planning on going to Kansas City for some swimming, burgers, and maybe Santa CaliGon Days this evening.




October

Sorry, I seem to have MIA for awhile from a lot of parts of my life.  There has been a lot going on in our crazy house, and between Shawn's work travel and many other somewhat personal things, I've been on the verge of a nervous breakdown.




November

Oh my goodness.  I had no idea that when I had kids that eventually every holiday that you already love, would be drawn out even more.




December

Yup, our family is expanding by the minute, or so it feels.  I'm an aunt again!

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...
