I want some daddy!

Mia was watching daddy eat his breadsticks and he noticed she was imitating him. He was nice enough to give her the end and she got to chew on his breadstick until it got soggy :)

Shamrock Shuffle

Today I ran the 1st Annual Shamrock Shuffle at the YMCA!!! Here is some of the girls that were all there (mom, where were you??? )

I got 1st place in my age group!! My time was 26.44. I was pretty surprised with my time considering it was raining and the course was pretty hilly!!

Mia got to hang out with her papaw while mommy ran the race! She then showed off during lunch and awards :)

Cyndi and I were "in it to win it" --the contest that is. Unfortunately, some guy who had shamrock boxers and a gold beard won.......a giant cookie cake. Bummer.

Can't wait to run again with all of these great girls!!

Colors

Here are you choices of headband colors :)

Colors of flowers will vary! Depends on what Hobby Lobby has on sale :)

Ok. So I have had a LOT of requests for the flower headbands!!! If you would like one, email me at mjdeeter@yahoo.com Make sure to include your NAME, PHONE, ADDRESS and the color of band/flower you would like. If you don't care about the color, you can just get one that I choose for you!! :) I will be making LOTS of these during my spring break (March 19th-28th) So just let me know and I will start a spreadsheet for your orders!

WOW. WOW. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you all so MUCH!!!!!

(I'm not sure how much they will be, but I'm thinking about charging $5 per headband. If there are requests for multiple bands per order, I'll figure out a "special" :) THANK YOU!!!!

Just an idea...

March is here, whether I want it to be or not. It's a month I remember like the back of my hand. A month of feeling my sweet boy kick around in my belly for the last time. A month to celebrate the birth of our son. A month that Jeremy and I longed for-the arrival of our 1st child. A month of hopes and dreams, sorrows and tears. It's a rollercoaster of emotions.

I wasn't able to host another 5k run in memory of Connor to donate money to the Vasa Previa Foundation(I've been a little busy with work, grad school, Mia, Jeremy & the usual household duties). So I've been trying to come up with a way to raise money to donate to the Vasa Previa Foundation in memory of Connor.

I have recently started making Mia her own little hair bows....and I got an idea. Maybe I should make some and try to sell them to raise money for the foundation!?!?! I haven't decided for sure, but it would be something to keep my mind occupied during my spring break. AND it would be a way to make lots of little girls look SUPER cute :)

Let me know your thoughts!

Here are a few that I have done so far...
