The best part about being a parent is getting to act like a kid. This weekend we took Maya and Maddie to Bunnyland at Butler's Orchard (http://www.butlersorchard.com) and we had a great time. Maya got her face painted, we all got to pet bunnies and look at newly hatched chicks, J and Maya rode the giant slides and then we hunted for Easter eggs.

My Family
I guess if you are reading this then it might be nice to tell you who we are.
I'll start with my self. I'm Trish and as you know, I'm a stay at home mom. I used to work for the DoD as an office administrator. I was working there when I meet my husband (more about him later) and fell in love. That love lead to marriage which has so far moved us from Maryland to Texas to Washington DC and produced 2 beautiful little girls. My life revolves around my family but when I get a few minutes to my self, I try to read or scrapbook and now update this blog. My life is pretty routine just trying to give my kids what they need and be here to support my hubby.
As mentioned above, J is my husband. He is active duty military which is a big part of our lives. He has been serving his country for almost 15 years now and is planning on putting in 20 year and retiring to the civilian side of life. Currently he is working on his Master's Degree so his time is tight, but we think in the end it will be worth it. When he does have free time, he is wonderful with the girls and they both adore him.
Maya is our 3 year old. She is all attitude and sass right now and her favorite word is "NO!". When she isn't trying to rule the household, she is running around trying to get everyone to play with her. Recently we have started her in tumbling classes and she has fallen in love with it. We go every Saturday morning and I think it is the highlight of her week. When she isn't flipping and being bossy, she is a wonderful big sister to Maddie.
Maddie is our new born. Currently she is 2 months old and doesn't really do much except eat and sleep, but that is okay for now. We think she is going to end up with a ton of personality and hopefully will be the calm next to Maya's storm.
Well that is my family. Now that everyone is up to date on who we are, let's get this blog started.

Bottles and Budgets
Bottles and Budgets are the two main things I do right now. In case you don't know me, I'm a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful little girls, Maya and Maddie. When I quit my job after Maya was born, it was decided that I would have two main responsibilities, the household budget and taking care of the baby (and her bottles). So far it seems to be working well and I have even learned a few tips on saving money here and there and think that I have become a better mother than I could of ever hoped.
