I usually tell stories with words but you know what they say…a picture is worth a crap-ton of words…or something like that. So here is our week in pictures. Thank you for following along!
Here's my week in pictures, in totally random order, just because.
What do you do when it's a raining on a Sunday morning and you're out of milk and eggs and bread? Load up your family in the Mazda Grand Touring FWD and go out for breakfast, of course!
Saturday night was date night. We went to the grand opening of the 1908 Wine Bar and Ale House. There was music. There was wine (duh.) There was cheese. Amazing place I'm excited to have as a neighbor in lovely Cibolo.
Kyle turned 7 (eek – can you believe????) on March 10th. He is here with his martial arts instructor, Mr. Meyers, cutting the birthday cake with a sword. Martial arts have been an amazing thing for our boys. Besides…how cool is it to cut your cake with a sword???

“Come to me my sweetie.” Said my son to his bacon. In case you were wondering what parenting done right looks like.We LOVED driving the Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring FWD this week. Plenty of room in the back for groceries and the assorted stuff families carry around. It's an AWESOME family car – very comfy and roomy in the back. Plenty of room for two booster seats. My boys LOVED the sunroof!I think the highlight of our week was getting Zack's robot hand. It's opened up a lot of doors for him. He can eat and apple and scratch his nose. Who knew that was such a big deal????Pure joy…and my husband's hands. I've always loved his hands.
Grocery shopping is…well, it's something that has to be done. The Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring FWD has a ton of room in the bag for all the groceries.My Kyle turned SEVEN this week. I can hardly believe it.
I had a read-through with this incredibly talented bunch at Commonwealth Coffee. Listen to Your Mother has brought so many amazing people into my life!
My favorite person, ever. Enjoying a little downtime.
Zack and his 3D printed “robot hand.” Incredibly cool, right?
Love that we had the Mazda CX-9 FWD Grand Touring to use for the week. It really is the perfect family car!
I'm ready to go get my robot hand, mom!
MIGAS. If you don't know what they are – figure it out. And then get some. ASAP.
This went viral this week. Who knew so many people loved Reese's eggs as much as I do? If you would like to share this please click the image and it will take you (magically) to Facebook and you can share, share, share with all your friends.
This is La Cabana, the BEST Mexican place in Cibolo, Texas. They have amazing lunches and dinners but we've recently discovered they're a great place to go for breakstast…see also we forgot to buy eggs and milk and bread. They have Migas – which is a win for THIS GIRL – and the absolute fluffiest pancakes. YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM.Oh, hiiii. I have an empty backseat. I'm off to my first rehearsal of Listen to Your Mother: San Antonio. Early bird tickets are $12 until March 15th. Come see us!!!Zack and Justin Cantu, the 10th grade student who made Z's “robot hand.” I'm so in awe.When your lipstick matches your car… We LOVED driving the Mazda CX-9 FWD Grand Touring. We still would have loved it even if it weren't this lovely shade of red…but OMG – RED.
Thank you for reading! If you'd like to see more, my family posts 1-2 pics each day on Instagram.
Please follow along on Facebook – we have #SundayShare every Sunday (duh) and YOU can share your favorite pictures from the week with ME. That's only fair, right?

Ready or not, summer is here. We’re laughing because let’s face it, laughing beats crying, breathing into a paper bag or locking ourselves in the bathroom with a bottle of wine and a bag of Hershey kisses. Well…maybe not that last thing. The peace and quiet of the bathroom paired with wine paired with chocolate…
One of the biggest mistakes I made before we adopted our two boys was not reading enough adoption books. I did read adoption books and I still read them but looking back, I don’t think I did enough research, particularly in the area of attachment.

I’ve been busy cranking out Christmas content over the past couple of weeks.

Once upon a time I started a blog. For those of you who have been reading my writing for awhile, you know I started off blogging exclusively about adoption. Blogging was a way to connect to other families who were in the process of adopting from China and it gave me a way to document…

This is my first visit and not my last. Love your blog. You had me at “wearing yesterdays mascara”
Awesome idea of cutting the cake with a sword!
I definitely must use this method next time! 🙂
Good job!
