Today I have decided to try out this blog thing.  We will see how far or how long this lasts. I decided to blog because I feel the need for a connection to the "outside world" beyond the mommy world.  A little about me.....

At the moment I am unemployed and seem to have extra time on my hands so why not start a blog? I sometimes have a lot to say and feel that others should enjoy the craziness that incorporates my life at times. I told my husband I am going to start a blog and call it Homemade Chaos. His response to this: "it's not that bad around here."  My response to him: "you are not home all day!" So here we are.  We have two beautful children. Our spunky and sassy toddler, Ava and our newborn Owen.

I love a lot of things. I love playing with our toddler, Ava, and watch her grow and explore the simple world in which she lives. I love snuggling with our little Owen, well not so little, but I love to snuggle.  I love  to cook, eat, bake, eat, attempt crafts (which I feel I am improving), drink coffee. I couldn't live without coffee, I do have an addiction to it. And don't forget the wine! I love wine and beer and margaritas and sangria and.....well I won't go on.  I don't have a problem though, this is just for recreation.

My latest activity is attempting to learn how to use a sewing machine.  I feel that it is my motherly duty to know how to use a sewing machine.  People say "practice makes perfect", so in my spare time, and apperently I have a lot of it even with a toddler and newborn, I will get this sewing thing down pat. I have a feeling that my husband may think I am a little nuts at times with all these different ideas and creations I have lined up but what keeps me happy, keeps him happy. Perhaps I will post some of my new creations at some point. Once I figure this blog thing out.
