Aww, My Husband

I found this old picture of CJ when he used to play guitar all the time. He even recorded his own music back then, when we first got together.

Then he went to building guitars, right here in our home. Now he actually works at C.F. Martin Guitar - building for a living. It is not very often people are able to have their dream job!

These Kittens Keep Me on My Toes

Well, I have already heard the faint cry of a kitten, only to find it IN the refrigerator! Yes, little bugger suck in when my back was turned while the refrigerator door was still open. Then, yesterday, I mistakenly left the bread drawer open...

Not sure what he was checking out; maybe looking closely at the bread packaging for food allergy information or perhaps he was trying to figure out how to get in the drawer?

Finding Cheap Kids Beds

The kids are growing up so fast! Olivia is starting ‘cheernastics’ in two weeks. This is a class to learn the basic gymnastics used in cheering. Between clothing, cheering and now these gymnastic classes, well, let’s just say I am very glad Jeff helps out financially or I would be poorer than I already am!

The boys are just beginning to show interest in different activities. Dante loves his drum set and wants to keep learning and Wyatt wants to play basketball. With all these ‘extra’ things coming up my wallet is stretched.

When it came to getting big boy beds for the boys, I immediately searched online for cheap kids beds because all the kids beds I saw n the stores around here were so overpriced. Of course, while I was looking for beds for the boys I came across cute beds I thought Olivia would love.

I think this one would be perfect for Olivia because of the desk portion. She always does her homework in her room but unfortunately, she lays or sits n the floor to do it and I hate that.

As for the boys, since they share a room, getting them bunk beds is ideal. They are rough on all their toys and the same is true for the furniture in their room. CJ has already had to fix dresser drawers. I actually really love this style for them, even though it does not look very child-like, it would fit their room décor perfectly.

I know many families that struggle with finances and feel like they are p against the wall when it comes to buying things that their children need. Purchasing a bed can be quite expensive, if you do not know where to look. I found these beds at Dreams.co.uk
