Realization

You ever just wake up... feel different... and know you need to make a change? That's what happened to me 3 months ago. I needed to focus on God, my family and myself more! So I did just that.

Exactly 3 months ago today was the last time I blogged. I honestly can't believe I went 3 WHOLE MONTHS without blogging but then again, since I had Addison, I haven't had a lot of time for blogging. To be exact... I have only blogged 42 times since my sweet baby was born 13 months ago.

When I became a SAHM in April of 09, things really went down for me on the blog. I no longer had the time I once had when I was working. I was busy being a mommy, wife, friend, daughter, etc. And I neglected my blog. So I wanted to take a break. I need a break. I didn't want to feel like I "had" to post. But honestly during the 3 months I was away from blogging I did miss it. I miss the connection I have with so many of you. I missed sharing.

So I decided a few weeks ago that I would start blogging again in November. I'm ready. I can take the time to blog several times a week. I don't promise a daily post but I am ready to start documenting our lives again.

I went back and forth on changing my blog name. When I started this blog my intention was to blog about "all things" fluffy (because I love me some animals as you know), fashionable (because I am a shopaholic) and famous (because I am obsessed with celebrity life), but now I will mostly be blogging about my sweet daughter and the happenings of our everyday life.

I want my blog to be more of a journal. A very open journal. I am an open and honest person that likes to share. So this time around that's what I will be doing, SHARING! And I look forward to interacting with all of my readers again :)

Things to come on my blog:
- Addison's 1st birthday party
- What I have been doing over the past 3 months
- Knee problems
- Budgeting and Dave Ramsey
- Shopping (or the lack there of)

And of course lots more. Thank you for sticking with me during my break and welcome to you new readers! I promise you... this will not be a boring blog :)
