Just wondering if anybody knows how all those other bloggin' moms became so famous? Because if I was a famous and had lots of advertising the fact that I got FIRED today wouldn't hurt so bad! Yes thats right I got fired. BOOOOO!!! Basically because this is the internet and it is forever on here I won't post the details. I also read that bad mouthing your past employers is great way for your future employers to cross you off the list (as if being fired from your last job is going to get you far). So despite the fact that they FIRED me I won't say anything negative at all.
So now I need to be interesting, funny, creative, with mounds of wit, so I can be a popular stay-at-home mommy blogger. Since I have like 1 follower I can pretty much say that is a big ol' shot in the dark. Oh well.
Life Sucks then you die. Guess I will have to get over it.

A Peaceful Celebration....
It isn't very often that peace and celebrate go hand in hand. However, we just celebrated our little Adalyn's 2nd birthday. Its such a peaceful time to sit at her grave and think of the happiness she brings to someone up there in Heaven. I saw a rainbow he other day on my way home from Idaho. I couldn't help but think of her and for a brief moment I knew she was thinking of me too and looking at that same rainbow....
Mostly Amelia keeps me busy enough that I don't get the chance to just sit and think about Adalyn. It was nice to spend some time and dedicate it to my firstborn. We actually weren't able to put flowers on her grave until today but we planted flowers at home last week in her honor and that always brings me a lot of comfort. Til we meet again angel babe!

Use it or Delete it....
That was the ultimatum given to me by one nameless sister in law. After many threats of this useless blog I guess I will update! I joke with Josh that the only reason I have a blog or facebook is to enter all the giveaways. If I won any of them than maybe it would be worth it, lol!
I haven't blogged since November and now its May (in case you weren't aware). Pay attention for the next few lines of the Woolstenhulme November to May run down (in no particular order. Thanksgiving, Sis in Law wedding, Christmas, Lots of Christmas, first teeth, first steps, new nephews and new nieces to be, baby blessing, new (local) job (for Josh), they canned my horrid boss (yay), Amelia turns 1, trips to Idaho, anniversary get away, new apartment, birthdays, birthdays, birthdays, Elise demands a raise (and GETS it :D), decorating new apartment, diets, failed diets, gardens, school, true health eating reform, Amelia walks, talks, and is the greatest joy of it all.
Now I am sure I could fill in a whole lot more details on the last 7 months but really it all boils down to that. We have been so grateful to having things fall in place the last couple months. I think after 3 years of marriage I have FINALLY learned how to budget. We are paying off huge chunks of debts and we are potentially saving to buy a house. I want to have a pretty sizeable down payment! It always blows my mind why I couldn't figure this out sooner but than I realize I am only 22 and most 22 year olds still live off their parents. Don't get me wrong we HAVE lived off our parents at some points, lol, but well now that I have got it all together (somewhat) I can just say we are moving on up from here.
I am a big blog reader and like to read all the sewing projects, especially from bloggers who transform their current wardrobe into a whole new one. Well Saturday I took my first stab at it. Now I am a pretty adapt seamstress thanks to my Mom and Stepmom, yet thats going off patterns and fabric from a bolt. Re-working already made clothes was not something I have done before. But I did take a light linen shirt that had a stain on it and cover it up with ruffles. Once it gets washed from the most recent wear I will post pictures. Are there any good blogs you follow with super easy money saving, sewing, cooking tips?
