Team Woodard: My OH so TINY laundry room!

My OH so TINY laundry room!

The laundry room is oh so tiny...not even sure you can call it a "room". If I could change one thing about this house, it would be to make the laundry room an ACTUAL room with a sink and storage. Also, it would not be right inside the back door. I think if I had it my way, I would have a small mud room right by the back door and a laundry ROOM by the bedrooms. Never understood why they put laundry rooms so far from the bedrooms.

Since there are not many pictures of our laundry room, I thought I would show you a few pictures of some other things. First, if you read my entry (http://teamwoodard.blogspot.com/2009/05/sad-day.html) a few weeks ago about my last pumping session, I mentioned that I had two freezers outside full of milk. I wanted to show you the pictures I took a few weeks ago. MINUS THE FROZEN PIZZA, they have nothing but breastmilk in them. AND, Trigger is 10.5 months old so he will get breastmilk for awhile!!!!

Today, Trigger's Izzy brought Abby and Sydney to come visit and play for a little while. They had fun. Trigger wasn't sure about others playing with his toys. He's going to have to learn to share! :)

AND, last but I think the BEST part of the post, pictures from tonight. Trigger LOVES to "play"...more like DESTROY...the pantry. I don't always let him but when I am in need of a few quiet seconds then I let him have at it!! Well, tonight Matt and I were busy cleaning up and I looked over and he had gotten the box of Cheerios and opened the box up AND WAS EATING THEM...Now, he had just eaten and was not hungry so don't feel too sorry for him! I thought it was hilarious though and before I took the box away, I took a million pictures of him (like any good mom would do of course)! P.S. We usually do not just let him roam around without clothes on but he was on his way to get a bath! I know he looks pure redneck with no clothes and eating out of the cereal box while sitting on the floor. We do have a little couth.

Hope you have a good weekend!

Kristin said...: Hi. I just found your blog through Kelly's Korner and I couldn't help but laugh at all your breast milk!!I completely understand! At one point we were unable to buy any frozen food at the store b/c our freezer was full of milk!! I am a little better now (I actually dump some-and it's painful to watch it go down the drain!) but I know there is no way my daughter will drink it in time before it goes bad! hehe...well anyway Trigger is adorable! He has such a cute little smile!! Trigger & my daughter are around the same age-10 months! :); June 19, 2009 at 10:05 AM
Helen Joy said...: I woke up today with an email from a friend who also reads Kelly's Korner, with a link to your blog! I probably would have found it myself anyways. But my goodness! You deserve a medal for pumping all that milk! Seriously, that is awesome. I am a photographer and have a 10 hour wedding tomorrow and I have zero oz pumped. It's going to be a long night. Thanks for sharing your cute laundry room and your wealth of milk:-); June 19, 2009 at 7:46 PM

The Woodards

My name is Garson Woodard. I'm a wife to Matt. He is the most incredible husband a girl could ask for. We met in Kindergarten at Cedar Creek (the school we attended for 13 years). Matt and I started dating our Jr. year in high school and dated for 6 years. We got married on June 26, 2004. I am so thankful that God brought us together! I am a mother to Trigger, Campbell, and Larkin. We worked hard to have all of them. After 2 miscarriages, two years after trying to get pregnant, a 2 week hospital stay, and a short (didn't seem short at the time) NICU stay, we brought home our first precious miracle: Trigger! He was born on July 29, 2008. Trigger's completely spoiled rotten! He is full of personality and definitely shows some of the same tenacity that his namesake had!

With our second child, Campbell, we made it to 38 weeks. He was born on June 3, 2010. He still had to stay in the NICU for 5 days for breathing issues. Campbell is absolutely precious..shy but such a little clown. I can't wait to watch our two boys which are 22 months apart) grow up together. I know they are going to fight constantly but be BEST of friends at the same time!

I just thought my boys were our miracles...and they are...but, at the end of May 2011, Matt and I found out that we were expecting the biggest surprise of our life. We were having baby #3 after being told we could never get pregnant on our own. AND, to add to the excitement, we were having a GIRL. After dealing with my medical issues, a two vessel cord, and IUGR, Larkin was born on January 6, 2012. She came here ruling the roost and I am sure that is not going to change anytime soon.

After what seemed like forever thinking that I would not have any children, God has blessed me with three beautiful babies all within 3.5 years.

After having Campbell, Matt and I decided I would become a stay-at-home mom. In alot of ways it is more difficult than teaching because I am with OUR children all day...and OUR children don't seem to listen like my students would. HOW DOES THAT WORK? Haha! Seriously though, it is the BEST job in the world and I feel very blessed to be able to be home to witness each and every minute of our boys' lives!

I started this blog when we found out we were pregnant with Trigger and have continued to document our crazy lives with a toddler and a baby since I don't have time to scrapbook anymore. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you visit again!
