Things I'm Loving

• Beignets from The Heavenly Donut Company. I think these are the best things I have eaten in Birmingham. I now have a goal to go to New Orleans to eat the real deal.

• This picture going around FB because it reminds me of my attempts to take pictures of David with my new camera. My friend is a photographer and she told me that she would be happy to edit in photoshop any photos that I take.

 See what I mean? I think I am going to start my own business.

• Spencer, who does his very best to keep up with my blog stalking stories and to not judge me for talking too much about people that I have never met before in real life. (What else am I suppose to talk about when I am home alone all day with two kids?!) I quizzed him last night and I was so proud that he knew Hungry Runner Girl's real name and Sean from the Bachelor's sister's name.  
• Fight the New Drug's FREE new online pornography addiction recovery program for youth. My friend from Utah State founded Fight the New Drug and here is what he has to say about it: 

Nearly 2 years ago when we started going out and doing assemblies in High Schools we realized quickly that education was critical but... it wasn't enough. So many young people expressed a need for help but didn't know where to turn. This experience inspired us to develop a program for young people... initially one that we thought would only take 3-4 months to build;) Ha!

So here we are today... 2 years later with the collective effort of the most talented and gifted people on the planet, now launching Fortify: A Step Toward Recovery. If you or someone you know is struggling with an addiction to pornography, you need to know there have been people out there who care about you and have been working tirelessly to bring you the best resources available to help you and/or loved ones get on the road to recovery. We've already had 6,000+ young people sign up for this program from all across the world. Share this, push this, change lives!

• My bestest friend, Katie, who sent me an amazingly cheesy awesome chick-flick to watch while I'm nursing and an adorable book for Jack and David. 

 

• The blog, The Moments We Stand. Remember how I told you that I am drawn to traumatically inspiring stories? This one takes the cake. It is a blog about a woman's journey after discovering her husband's infidelity when the police showed up at her door telling her that her husband was murdered by the mistress' husband.  If you haven't read this blog yet, quit reading my dumb blog and start reading Ashlee's immediately! (And start from the beginning). It is amazing. 
• The fact that I finally got around to uploading pictures. Here is the dump:

 
David's second trip to the zoo. Brainwash them early.
 
 
Jack truly thinks he knows how to play Rumikub:

 
More snow from a couple weeks ago. I think the snow is finally done for the season.
