My brother was in an accident and Ive been quite busy this part week. Ill be blogging in detail tonight.

No Sleep and Teething

This beautiful little thing is teething and having trouble sleeping. Neither she or I are getting much sleep. Niki has been crawling around a bit this morning, but mostly she is very clingy. She even wants mommy after daddy has given her what she deems as enough attention.

Adventures in Blogging

I have decided to start a cooking blog! I LOVE to cook and I have a very large and ecclectic collection of recipes that I like to share with others!

I will be posting recipe's, cooking tips that I have learned over the years and links to some of the cooks who have inspired me. I am not ashamed to admit that when I find something that Rachel Ray or Paula Deen cook something I think my family will like that I use it! Heck that's what they are there for!
Foodnetwork it a great resource for the home chef and there are many other blogs and sites that are great. So check out my other blog "From the Kitchen of Mama G"

o lay this little one to rest.

I never thought i would find myself going to a funeral for a two year old. Yet here i an waiting for my grand parents so we can make the two hour drive t

Off to bed long day tomorrow and it will start early! Niki went down pretty easy tonight i can only hope she stays asleep!

Perparing to Take a Day Trip

Today Nikirhe and I have been up since about 6. I did a little laundry, mendend hubby's pants, and tried to keep this poor teething little grump occupied.

I'm looking forward to seeing some of my family tomorrow but very sad that it had to be because my cousin lost her little girl. I'm praying that Niki is good during the funeral. I don't want to cause any undue heartache!

I am thinking about starting a food blog. Something that I can use to share my recipies and give others cooking tips. I am going to have to start blogging on a more regular basis. My stupid internet needs to work better! LOL

Nikirhe is crawling all over the livingroom today. She has been feeling yucky and hurting. I hate not being able to help her more. I got some homeopathic teething drops to help with her pain and they seem to work better than the teething tablets.

Well I better close for now I need to pack the the diaper bag and lay out our clothes for in the morning. We are leaving here very early.

Wow I've really been slacking!

Introducing this beautiful little girl into our life has turned my world upside down in a good way! Nikirhe is 7 months and growing fast! She is so very active and I love it! She is an amazing creation and I marvel at the blessing she truly is.

She is learning to crawl, talk, pull-up, and stand! She is saying Dada she even calls me dada! :o) She really is keeping us entertained and on our toes!

We are so excited to have this beautiful little one in our lives! Praise God!

My cousin Tammy's little girl Aidan died this week due to injuries from a door falling on her. I'm so very sad for her. I cannot imagine the pain she is feeling loosing her daughter. She was only 2 and it is so sad and tragic!

Well I know I've not written in quite awhile so I should give a quick run down..

Our Daschund Shelby had two puppies about 7 weeks ago, Jack our Chihuahua is the father. They had two boys and we are going to give them to a couple of loving families.

We have started looking for a different place to live. Our current house is costing us more money in utilities each month than the rent some months! It's an old and not very well maintained house and the maintence man is slow and not very thorouh.

We are looking forward to attending our family reunions, Mine in August and his in October. We are excited about more of our families getting to meet Nikirhe!
