I'm so excited about the Ultimate Blog Party going on at 5 Minutes for Mom. I've already been visiting other blogs so I have GOT to get my own post going!!! Last year I didn't participate in the UBP (other than as a reader) but I promised myself I'd participate the next time, i.e. NOW. So here I am. Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit!!! The best way to navigate my little corner of blogland is with my tags on the left sidebar--you can see I've done a little organizing, posted a few recipes, and I frequently share what I love in my "tilt" posts.-
The basics: I'm a stay-at-home-mom of two kids. My son "L" will be 5 in June. My daughter "T" is 18 months old. We live in Phoenix, AZ.

Gosh, it's hard to introduce myself in one post. I'm scatterbrained and disorganized but I love my kids; being a SAHM is the best job I've ever had, though most days I feel like I'm failing; I'm a good friend, a good listener, but I've lived around the country and now my closest friends are far away; I love to read, watch tv and movies, and play on the internet, but sometimes I fall into the abyss and leave the tv to "babysit" my kids. In other words, I'm not perfect, but I'm trying to be better.

Random stuff about me:
*I love Jane Austen books and movies.
*I'm currently reading this book.
*My favorite tv shows are Glee and Project Runway.
*My favorite food is pizza.
*My biggest celebrity crush is Johnny Depp.

Otherwise, I just love reading mommy blogs (and organizing blogs, and DIY blogs, and decor blogs.......) and I have this here little work-in-progress blog of mine to join the conversation. Feel free to stay and poke around a bit; please leave me a comment so I'll know you were here, I promise I'll visit you in return. :-) Thanks again for coming. Happy Partying!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope to see you next wednesday.
Stopping by for the party! Love the blog, can completely relate. Cant wait for more.
I'd eat pizza (good pizza) every day....all day!! It's so nice to 'meet' you!!
Thanks so much for visiting "Come Have a Peace." I have never been to AZ. It can be really hard when you are far from your good friends. I hope that God has a new friend for you to discover where you are now.
So fun to meet you on the UBP!
Blessings to you,
Julie

Hey! Long time no see. When you come and visit, then I say, "HEY! Where's Eos Mom again?" And you are always an encouragement. Thanks for saying Hi.
Stopping by from UBP. My hat goes off to you! I have a one year old, and most days I'm a heap at the end of the day. Right now, I can't imagine keeping track of a 5 year old and an 18 month old. You're one busy momma!
