My very first!

This is my very first time blogging. Not that I am really all that interesting, but I tought I would give it a try. So here is a little about me. I am a new mom to a perfect baby boy. He is already 11 1/2 weeks old and I just can't figure out where the time went. So when I have free time, i.e., my little munchkin's nap time, I will fill you all in on the wonderful little moments and not so wonderful moments of being a new mom while trying to run a business from home, be a good wife and do all the household things that need to be done. I love making handmade greeting cards when I can, but our little guy makes it pretty hard most of the time. I also have two wonderfully overweight cats who like to try to "help" me with my cards. My youngest cat Snowball has a tendency to steal small pieces of paper from me. It might sound cute, but it drives me crazy. Just when I get something cut and set it aside it disappears thanks to her. Okay so it is really cute, but I just wish she wouldn't do it everytime.

It is officially summer and boy has it come in with a bang around here. We had some crazy strong storms here yesterday that dumped about 2 inches of rain at my house. Normally I wouldn't care, except I have a hydrangea that likes water, but not too much. I just tried to revive it from a storm we had a few days ago and now more rain. The pot has about 2 inches of standing water on top of the soil just like it did the other day. It is now just sitting in mud and not doing so good. I tried to scoop as much water out as I could, but I just cannot seem to get any water out of the mud. It doesn't want to dry out at all either. It really makes me sad because my mom and sister bought this hydrangea for me when my son was born in April. I am really more like a brown thumb, but I was really trying to keep this alive and was doing really good for once and now mother nature has other ideas for my poor hydrangea. Looks like I need to try again to revive it.

Well the little guy is sleeping very soundly so I need to take this rare opportunity and go fill a card order!
