More About Me

Welcome to my blog! This is a family blog - I don't do giveaways or promotions. I just enjoy having all the memories on here as well as being able to keep family and friends up to date on our lives.

My name is Kelly...

I love Jesus Christ with all my heart and I desire to glorify Him in everything. He is my strength and my All...

I am married to an amazing, hard-working, handsome, talented man! He is a musician and stays extremely busy teaching, conducting multiple youth orchestras, playing weddings and other gigs, and playing professionally in several symphony orchestras...

I am a dark chocolate addict...

I live in Alabama...yep, a southern girl who says "y'all" and "fixin' to" all the time...

I am a busy, busy mama to three four precious babes ages 4, 3, and 1 1/2 and 2 months...

I love to exercise, but don't have much time to do it these days...

I don't have it all together...

I love playing with my children...

My bathrooms are rarely clean...

I don't get out much by myself, but when I do, I miss my babes like crazy and can't wait to get home...

All I want for my birthday is a haircut, pedicure, and my out-of-control eyebrows threaded...

Both my family and my hubs family live about 10 minutes away...

I transport my kids in this amazing beast of a stroller. I seriously love this thing...

I am a pastor's kid...

I love to cook and bake, but rarely follow a recipe...

My best friend from college lives in Colorado. I miss her terribly...

I was never supposed to have any children...ahem...

I fall asleep pretty much every time my hubs and I watch a movie...

We eat as healthy as our budget allows...

I have always loved children. I babysat from the time I was 12 through college. The knowledge and experience I gained during those years has been invaluable...

I am a sucker for children's books. There are currently 20-30 on my Amazon wish list...

The Hubs and I have been married almost 6 years.

I birth my babies naturally (unmedicated) but don't look down on those who don't...

I like to knit, read, sew, and craft in my spare time...needless to say, I haven't done any of those in months...

Sometimes I load the babes up and go to Target...just to get out of the house...

I peek in on my babies every night before I go to bed. They are so peaceful when they are asleep...

We have a chocolate lab named Roo...

I love going to yard sales, but haven't braved it with three little ones yet...

I treasure the nights my hubs is home to help do the bedtime routine...

I am thankful that God's grace is sufficient...

Yes, I've got my hands full, but my heart is bursting...
