Looky look - another Hoosier native

Yo yo yo! Happy Thursday my lovies!!

Currently I am not occupying my blog - but I am occupying over at Michelle's blog. Yo yo yo let's organize yo closet fool. See you over there. 

As for my blog............

I am so so excited to share with you Emily! She is a fellow Hoosier ;) Hence the title!  

{i think i over used the word yo}
---------------------------------------
Hello Blabbering Thoughts readers! My name is Emily, and I blog over at Celebrating the Day. The lovely Miss Tiffany recently did a guest post on my blog, and I was so pleasantly surprised to learn that she is from Indiana, just like me! While neither of us live there now, being from the same place sure is a quick way to feel like you know someone!

I am pretty new to the blog world, but so far I am loving every minute of it! I am a recent college graduate and a newlywed living in Austin, Texas. On Celebrating the Day I like to talk about how my husband and I celebrate all the little things in our daily lives, the crafts we do, what I wear, overcoming bad days, keeping a positive attitude, and all sorts of other things that pop into my head. I try to put all said topics into a positive light, because I think constantly appreciating everything around you is the best way to stay happy. Through all the writing I've done for my blog, I have started to wonder, can you choose to be happy? Most things don't happen like we plan. But even when things end up differently than we hoped and expected, can we just decide to be happy about it without having to fool ourselves?

I have written a couple posts on how to be happy, but what brings me happiness might not be the same as what brings you happiness. Choosing to be happy can be hard when emotions and life situations sometimes seem out of your control, but figuring out what makes you happy can help you create a more rewarding life for yourself. To choose happiness, you have to first know what happiness means to you.

When I started this little project for myself, I wanted to find all the things that brought me joy. Now some people might think that there are certain things that would make anyone happy - maybe things like having a lot of money, not having to do anything you don't want to do, or looking like a super model. But those are not the things I am talking about! I am talking about the tiny things that make up each and everyday - the ones that may seem insignificant at first. To figure out what these things are for you, keep a journal of all the things that make you feel good during the day. For me that included things like leaving a nice tip for a waitress, keeping my house clean, and dressing my best. These things don't have to make a have a drastic change in your day, they just have to make you feel slightly better. The difference between a $4 tip and a $6 tip isn't going to be a life changer for you or your waitress, but all of those little things add up, and with every good deed you do, you are making the world a better place for you and those around you. Once you take note of every little thing that brightens your day a little bit, you can put them in place, and soon you will see a big difference. To see some examples of what makes me happy, check out my posts here: one & two. Then start to keep track of the small things in your life that make a difference in how you feel overall. Once you are conscious of them, you can make an effort incorporate them into everyday!

So once you have a good list going of the things that make you feel happy, does that mean you will always be happy? Probably not. My list grows everyday, and I try to share them on my blog often, but there are days when I still feel down. Feelings are hard to control. That brings me back to my original question - can you choose to be happy?

To me choosing happiness does not mean being naive to the negativity around you. It doesn't mean turning your back to conflict in the world. Instead choosing to be a happy person means living your life with your glass half full. Yes, bad things happen (even to good people), but it's how you deal with those things that determine who you are. So maybe you won't be beaming with happiness every single moment of everyday, but that's ok! Choosing to be happy means (to me) that you are always finding the best in your situation. You are spreading your joy to those around you and acknowledging the little things everyday. By appreciating the simple things in your life, you will be able to see how wonderful your life is. Then when you have those not-so-happy days, you can take them on with a positive attitude.

I challenge you to make your own list of things that make you happy. If you have your own blog, I would love for you to share them! And if you do, please send me the link! I love hearing what brings smiles to other people's faces, and I would love to hear from you!

Silent Night Martini

Happy Monday all!! My life has been consumed - consumed by road trippin' to Napa with my hot baby daddy - playing with kids - CLEANING my entire house for my Aunts visit - AND working. Yes working, I worked on the weekend. What in the heck is wrong with me. 

So in honor of me being OVERLY busy here is by far one of my favorite Martini's Ash & I have tried. I have actually conquered making it myself since Brock seems to be complaining these days about making drinks ... PSYCH! He wasn't around - I was half tempted to ask him to come over & make me one but instead I wanted to surprise him & Ash by showing .. I'm a big girl now!! My first martini I ever made!!

The Silent Night Martini

Me & Ash - I look like one hot mess .. I'm blaming this on being a mom .. Or something like that.

Oh haaay you pretty little thang, yum yum.

Beauty in a martini glass

Ladies - & gents {if you read} this is a must try. 

Ingredients
 1/4 cup Malibu Rum
1/4 cup Pineapple Juice
1/8 cup Blue Curacao
1/8 cup White Creme De Cocao
Splash of half & half

Instructions 
Mix ingredients in a martini shaker + ice & shake
Rim martini glass with sugar

Now, is it Friday yet?

You needs 3 things + an egg - Really!!

Hey all! I am in the midst of traveling to Napa for the DAY. Yes, I said day .. You know a 4 hour trip there .. And then a 4 hour trip back. What were we thinking? I am thinking exhausting.
Chris's best friend, Adam & his girlfriend, will be there so we are going to have "lunch". I would like to consume an entire bottle of wine after being in a car for that long in one day - but I won't because that won't be fair to make Chris drive the whole way. Plus - the whole having a wine buzz & then driving 4 hours .. I am thinking NOT.
So now that you totally know how I am spending my day, the lovely Mindi is here taking it over giving us busy momma's something EASY to make. Like are you kidding, 4 ingredients. Sign me up I am all for the ease.
--------------------------------
Hi guys! I'm Mindi, and I blog over at The Sprouted Root! I spend my days immersed in the raw, wild little lives of 3 boys under the age of 3 1/2. It's fun, messy, and exhausting. So what's a girl to do when she is in desperate need of a cookie but hasn't been to the store in two weeks (read: a sole box of cake mix sits on the pantry shelf and the fridge is housing one lonely egg)? I find an old recipe for Cake Batter Cookies, and take it as a sign to whip up a batch.

First, enlist the help of an all-too-willing youngin'. Aprons are necessary... if not to keep the cookies off the clothes, then to keep the nekked off the cookies.

I love how Syd posted a recipe this way, and decided to keep my recipe just as simple!




1. Melt the stick of butter

2. Mix everything together

3. Clump together into balls on cookie sheet

4. Bake at 350 degrees for 9-12 minutes (can test with toothpick in middle since they're cake!)

5. Ship the kids off to bed with promises of warm cookies upon waking

6. Throw on a pair of your husband's socks, kick up your feet, and devour a plate of them with a side of goat milk and a good book.


Please stop over and say "hi" to me! We'll be the best of friends if you can tell me you've rolled your kid's hand up in the car window or served them moldy jam... and if you've washed the same load of sour laundry 3 times, even better.

My baby turns ONE

I think I am about to get all sentimental on you peeps - and personal - and honestly I don't do that much, but here goes it.

My son - he is one. All you parents out there go through this, IT'S A BIG DEAL. Of course I have a daughter who is about to be THREE so this is not my first rodeo - but every child, is different.

My precious baby boy is now not a baby, but a toddler. Having a boy is so different than having a girl. That's mommy's little baby - he's a momma's boy for sure. But one thing I do tell myself that when he goes out on his own, I will not be that mom that holds on to "her baby". But I understand why mom's do - the relationship with sons are just so different.

I am going to go picture over load because I CAN because HENRY IS ONE!!

I was induced with both kids - Henry was a day late so we headed to the hospital at 9am on a Sunday - best Sunday morning, ever. Doc was hesitant but when I arrived I was 4cm dilated. She stripped my membranes & I about punched the side of my bed because she told me DURING doing it what she was doing. OUCH. Started my pitocin around 11 - progressed quickly - epidural was not nearly as strong as when I had Hadley so I could feel a lot of pain but it was bearable. I fell asleep for maybe 5 minutes - woke up because I swear the catheter needed to come out because it was getting uncomfortable - our bomb diggity nurse Ron came in & I told him, he checked me & said you're right it needs to come out because your baby is about to come out. OHHH so that's the feeling of pushing - got it. CHECK.

{please ignore my appearance & my 8 chins - but this is me at 10cms ready to get this show on the road}

Mind you - I love labor, I love the whole process of it. It is such a fabulous experience, if I could go through that once a year I'd be okay with it - but I am totally good with my 2 kids. SO I was exciiiited to start pushing. I pushed like 5 or 6 times & welp little Mr. LLOYD Henry came out at 6:43pm.

{All 8lbs & 15oz of this presh baby boy}

{Us 3 right after birth - again excuse my now sweaty of a mess appearance}

{One of my favorite pictures of Hadley meeting her brother for the first time}

{holding him for the very first time}

{and then our family became four :)}

{newborn baby Henry - June 19, 2011}

{little man Henry - June 19, 2012 - He is ONE]

One year ago - we spent time in the hospital celebrating an amazing birth - now today we will be at the ZOO!! Happy Birthday my little main squeeze. Momma loves you!

Father's Day

Father's Day means so much to so many people - to everyone in fact.

{by far one of my favorite pictures of me & my dad}

I am lucky. I am lucky for 2 reasons - one because my dad is THEE bomb. I am not just saying that because he is my dad - I am saying that because he is an amazing man. Not only is he an amazing father but an awesome husband to my mom & that my friends can be rare. AND two - I am lucky I found an amazing man, Chris, to raise my kids.

Growing up I always thought my dad was like the coolest dad - he always tried to keep up with the times & be "hip". Being a little kid I knew my dad would be there to play with me whenever I wanted & mostly because I was the only kid in their lives for 9 years. I remember I always wanted my dad to play barbies with me & then my mom play match box cars with me - clearly that never went over too well. 

I also remember my dad building dune buggies - one of my favorite memories. We would head north to Michigan to the sand dunes & ride around in the sand ... We would race & we would lose & we would speed to the top of the hills & get stuck .. Those thoughts make me giggle. 

Then I turned 16 & he took me to get my belly button pierced ----- say whaaa? I would kill Chris if he took Hadley to get that done :) I was on top of the world though .. I didn't need to "hide" getting it pierced because my dad TOOK me. I remember going home all smiling & my mom was like what are you 2 up to .. Haha oh man I probably would have kicked him in the shins at that point if that was Chris.

My dad has been there every flipping step of the way of my life. To move my ass 324325 different times throughout college & to load up all my stuff and to send me to California to be with Chris. What a man. 

Now - I see him as a Grandpa - wow kind of brings tears to my eyes so I will now be moving on. 

{with all his "kids"}

I love you daddy!!

-------------------------

On to the other man in my life - my husband to be. He is probably the best dad out there. Watching him with Hadley & Henry - play, discipline, tickle, rough house - whatever it is, it just makes me smile. Smile because I wouldn't want any other man to be my baby daddy. :)

{pure joy running on the beach with our daughter}

{and then being his silly self with our son}

He does things with the kids that I do not - I try to avoid at all possible costs to NOT go in public with the 2 of them, but him - he does it all the time. More power to you man. On his days off he takes the kids swimming at a former coworkers house - those are memories the kids will remember for sure. Daddy takes me to the pool mommy. Yeah yeah yeah but I kiss your boo-boos. ;)


Last year I gave him a son for Father's Day - I am not quite sure I can beat that one this year. BROWNIES it is!


-------------------------

I am so thankful for my parents for NOT being able to have kids at that time in their lives & opening up their hearts to adopt me because there is not one other family that I would want to raise me .. And I am also so thankful for the crazy life that I led that put me right back in the arms of the man I am marrying but we just took the plunge of the kids & house first ;) I love you both so much!

She's cooler than a older sister

'Oy mates! My mums blog has been taken over by another pretty mama today so I just wanted you to see my presh face & let it be known I am now a big boy. Adios!

Please note that my son speaks Australian - German - Spanish - AND English in the above 2 sentences.

So - I am kind of excited to introduce you guys to Michelle. When she submitted her guest post to me, I giggled out loud. You know LOL'd!! I didn't even realize she was a bit older than me but she makes some valid points about the blogisphere - but if you ask me she fits riiiiight in.

Plus I wouldn't mind spending a Friday night at her house in my pjs sippin' on some appletinis {we all know this girl loves tinis}.

Enjoy her, go check her out. I promise you won't be disappointed & you'll be her favorite for the day .. Well after she gets back from New York you'll be her favorite ;)
-----------------------
Hello Blabbering Thoughts fans!  I'm really excited to be Tiffany's guest today.
I'm Michelle and I just started a little blog called You're my favorite today.


It's a place for me to unload some of my inner dialogue that drives my family crazy (especially when it becomes outer, which is often), share the things and events that make me smile, comment on random and regular and ridiculous things that go on (or have gone on) in my life, be snarky about celebrities - really, just whatever happens to be my favorite today.

As I've been learning about blogging the past couple of months by reading and studying and reading and examining and reading countless blog posts, I've discovered that there are a lot of bloggers out there who are in their mid to late 20's, either engaged or newly married with unbelievably gorgeous and artsy black and white wedding photos and sweet love/engagement stories who are decorating cute new apartments and go out with friends to fun urban bars, OR new mamas who are exhausted and exhilarated and post adorable baby photos, OR gorgeous 20-somethings who post photos of different outfits they wear and tell me where I, too, can purchase size 2 yellow skinny jeans.

For the sake of full disclosure (and so this post might make a little more sense) I think I should let you know that this is my first guest post - ever -, and that while I am probably not quite old enough to be the mother to most of you reading this, I was probably busy curling my bangs, swooning over Andrew McCarthy and listening to Duran Duran when you were born (but I like to think of myself as your cool older sister, just so ya know).

But even though you may have been in playing with play-doh when I was pumping a keg at a fraternity party, and you may have a dog that is terrified of thunder and keeps you up at night instead of an 11 year-old daughter who does the same, our lives (and our blogs) are more alike than you'd think.

For example:

YOU: You may go out to a fun, new, hip urban club on a Friday night with your cool/scruffy fiancée/husband and have a few drinks wearing funky heels and a messy bun and a colorful scarf thrown around your neck in a perfectly sloppy but polished way and post cool instagram photos on facebook/twitter/blog.

ME: Husband (also scruffy but in an "I don't care to take the time to make sure my whiskers aren't so long that food won't get caught in them" kind of way) and I also will be having drinks on Friday - usually in our basement, on the couch, in sweats or pjs, face washed, (totally different kind of) messy bun, watching t.v. We sometimes often do make Appletinis, though, because we like to feel fancy.

Difference - you won't ever - ever - see photos of that (although it would be hilarious and now I might be reconsidering...)
YOU: You have a silly and spirited and lovable dog who aggravates you/amazes you/exhausts you/thrills you with her antics every day.

ME:  I have a 16 year-old and an 11 year-old daughter who do the same.
Difference - mine don't (usually) have accidents on the floor anymore.
YOU: You go to work every day to a job that aggravates you/amazes you/exhausts you and then come home and try to find time for yourself...and your blog.

ME: Being a personal assistant to Husband, the 16 and 11 year old as well as a maid, cook, vet, and chauffeur is not a lot different in the aggravate/amaze/exhausts you department. Except now I know they'll still grow if they only eat peanut butter and cheese 5 days in a row so I clock-out early more and more often to work on the blog.

Difference - I get to sleep with the boss (or is it the other way around??)

See? Despite our age difference we can still hang out together!
So drop by...meet the fam...become a new follower...share a favorite.
I'm always happy when you do.

...and thank you, Tiffany, for giving an "old lady" a break!
You're my favorite today!

So you stay at home huh?

Something about last week I wrote a bagillion posts & this week I write nada. I mean really? Can't I just be consistent? Riiiight. If I was consistent life would be boring, I like to live on the edge of my seat so at any point I could possibly pee my pants. I AM KIDDING. Not really - I still have that occasional problem where I giggle & pee .. Clearly I am not keeping up with my "exercises" posts babies. That's for the birds anyway.
^I am totally sure you wanted to hear all about that huh?^

Again .. Moving on .. My blabbers are getting worse & worse I tell you what. BUT THAT'S THE POINT OF MY BLOG!! DUUUUUUUUUUUUH.

I just wanted to rub in that this is my view out my office window .. Do you see that I have palm trees in the front of my office? Just making sure you knew they were palm trees. Never.leaving.them.ever.

So obviously by now you know my brain is here & then it is there & this is ALL the proof you need. A lovely convo between me & the hubs-to-be. And I captioned it "I have an attention span of a nut" - because seriously evidence below. IN MY DEFENSE I HAD A TOOTH ACHE!!

I just wanted to leave you with some of "me" today because my blog has been taken over by the lovely Kelly @ The Grant Life .. We talk on a daily basis via twitter, is that normal? I know we think so. Her blog is so inspirational & I tell her all the time, she's one of those moms that's just good at what she does. You know "menu planning" <--- psh who has time for that? EVERYONE but she actually does it. ARTS & CRAFTS, precious babes, financial TIPS, I mean you name it this woman has got it going on. Not to mention she is my BBF {baby butt face} friend.

-----------------------------------------

Hello Blabbering Thoughts friends!  Im so happy to be here.. seriously I love Tiffany.  I consider her one of my bloggy bffs.  [Shes actually a bloggy BBF bff.. but more on that later!]  My name is Kelley and I blog over at the Grant life.  Im a stay at home momma to a 2 year old toddler girl and a one year old baby boy.  I recently opened a small online shop called loveables where I sell pretties for mom and daughter.  I love being knee deep in crafts and I made a resolution to try at least one new recipe a week.  Plus I just started to offer my online services as a virtual assistant.  


Whew!  I get tired just reading that!  But I love my 'job' as a mom and wouldn't have it any other way.  [Ok - I lied.  I'd have a bill passed to pay stay at home moms for their work.  Hey a girl can dream, huh?]  

I made a list of why I love being a stay at home mom that Im going to share with yall today.  I forgot to mention I think Im pretty hilarious too.  [I once told my mom I wanted to be a comedian and her response was 'You have to be funny for that Kelley!'  Thanks mom.]  

- I want nap time to be my only 'productive time' of the day.  Sometimes. 

- I want to kiss boo-boos not someones arse.  

10679036.jpg
- I want to be waken up by someone crawling into our bed, not an angry alarm clock.

- The only poo [PG version] I wanna take from anyone comes from a diaper. 

- I want to have no pants parties whenever we feel like it.  [Cough everyday cough].

- The only training I want to do involves a potty.

 
- I want to be the smartest person in the room.  

Haha.  I hope yall got a chuckle out of my stay at home mommy list.  If not, I hope you enjoyed the pictures of my babies.  I would love for you to stop by the blog and say hello!  [Or twitter or facebook.]  Thanks Tiffany for letting me share a little something about me.  Maybe Im only funny in my head?  Hmm..
