Motherhood is Wonderful!!!!!

I have got to say, Lately , I have had such a burning in my heart about being a mom...I look at my 2 boys and are so grateful for them..it took me a while, and a lot of pain, crying, complaining, bitterness etc...but I have been blessed with these little boys...I know they were supposed to come to my family...from someone who maybe 10 years ago, was not in the best place in her life, and would have been a nightmare of a mom, I feel like I have come a long way...

I know this is my calling in life...I am so grateful for that...

Now..Me and Jeff might disagree on the # of kids we want...but I do know that if I am blessed with more children, That will be great ....If not....I have the best little boys anyone could ask for...

BTW!!! I do have my moments..of wanting to pull my hair out..and want to run away for the day...but for the most part..Motherhood is Wonderful!!!

My goal in life...is that my boys grow up...and look back on their childhood, and have the happiest memories..and always be mamas boys at heart..., (cause I don't want to have to fight the daughter in laws , but I will)......Just kidding...

I am still learning how this site works but will have pics on it soon....

My name is Erica and I am a first time Blogger..

Hello,

I have decided to keep a blog about my family, and our day to day happenings...I have no idea what I am doing, but I like this..It is like a form of journaling..

I am married to Jeff..He loves me, despite my many many faults..especially, if you ask him, my lack of organization, and failure to put wrappers in the garbage at a timely rate...

We have 2 beautiful boys..Keaton who will be 4 in May, and Braedon who just turned 6 months yesterday..I love them more than anything..It took me a long time to get them here..some of you may know my battle with infertility, and some may not..but it was a long hard road , with lots of bumps..but in the end, I have been blessed with these sweet spirits...They keep Jeff and I really busy...

Keaton, is becoming his own little person..he has a big personality..the other day in the car, he was asking for French Fries, again and again and again...Finally I said, Keaton stop saying that...he was quiet....then from the backseat I hear, Mommy, is that a bad word...I said what...he said French fries...we laughed...He figured since I told him not to say that anymore..It must be a bad word...he always has something funny to add to the family..

Braedon, is so laid back...he is an easy baby for the most part..he loves his big brother so much...we are crossing our fingers he does not have food allergies like Keaton..so far so good...

I will be posting about my family often....and I hope whoever ends up reading this will enjoy our little adventures in being a family of a dad ( with a little bit of OCD):), and a mom, who is learning as she goes.. and 2 boys who capture their families hearts...
