Hillbilly Bone?

Last night Ollie and I were sitting at the computer watching his favorite music video: "Hillbilly Bone." He had been asking for it all day yesterday ... he calls it "Be-be bo-bo."

Well we had been playing it over and over again, singing and dancing along, when Dylan comes home from playing outside. He walked up behind us and listened for a while. Then he very seriously asked, "MOM? WHERE IS THE HILLBILLY BONE?"

He completely expected it to be an actual location on our bodies! :)

Baby Number Five and Mama's Size

Here's a new look at baby number five - at 16 weeks. We had an opportunity to see our newest little baby in another sonogram this week. He looks so cute! It's amazing how fast they grow in there! He was moving his little hands and feet all around! How precious is that?!?!


Since I haven't posted any belly pictures yet, I need to play catch-up. Here's the belly at 10 weeks ...

... and here is the current belly at 16 weeks.

I guess the "normal" guidelines for when you're supposed to get however big no longer apply after you've had a certain number of babies. I'm not worried ... they're 100% worth it!

I know I need to blog but ...

... I have nothing interesting to show for my time lately!

Are there other Mama's out there like me? I have such a strong desire to be the super-amazing wife and mama, but I can never seem to get it all done! As soon as I accomplish one thing, the last thing I finished is already undone or needing to be done again. Blah!

Guess I need to get off the computer and at least try ... any tips would be greatly appreciated! :)

Love Like Crazy

I absolutely love this new song! It's by Lee Brice and it's called, "Love Like Crazy." Read the incredible lyrics below:

"They called him crazy when they started out. Said seventeen's too young to know what loves about. They've been together fifty-eight years now ... that’s crazy.

He brought home sixty-seven bucks a week. He bought a little 2 bedroom house on Maple Street. Where she blessed him with six more mouths to feed ... yeah that’s crazy.

Just ask him how he did it; he'll say pull up a seat. It'll only take a minute, to tell you everything.

Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse "I love you." Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense. Never let your prayin' knees get lazy, and love like crazy.

They called him crazy when he quit his job. Said them home computers, boy they'll never take off. He sold his one man shop to Microsoft ... they paid like crazy.

Just ask him how he made it. He'll tell you faith and sweat, and the heart of a faithful woman, who never let him forget.

Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse "I love you." Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense. Never let your prayin knees get lazy, and love like crazy.

Always treat your woman like a lady. Never get too old to call her baby. Never let your prayin knees get lazy, and love like crazy.

They called him crazy when they started out. They've been together fifty-eight years now. Ain't that crazy?"
