If Leighton isn't asking it, I'm thinking it!

I am the worst at making decisions.  Seriously.  Whether it's vacations, new shoes for the kids, or how to arrange the furniture in the bedrooms, it's always the same scenario - great with ideas, great with research, great with comparisons and pros and cons, but really, really bad with making a final decision!  Creating this blog was no exception.  I came up with the idea a couple months ago and excitedly set about getting it started, but as soon as it came time to decide on a title, there was no further progress.  I have spent the last several weeks thinking of ideas, asking my sister for ideas, and wasting lots of good blog-able moments, stories, and pictures.  All because I can't just make a decision on something as simple as a title!

Last night I figured I had procrastinated long enough and it was time to finally start this blog to share with you all (or, I guess I should be saying y'all now that I live in Texas, right?!?!).  So, I got the lap top and opened Blogger.  Not surprisingly, I hesitated when I got to "Step 2:  Name your Blog" and spent two hours catching up on celeb gossip, finding new pins on Pinterest, and looking at other blogs for title inspiration.  I also kept re-reading emails from Hannah with title ideas and almost committed to different ones several times during the evening. 

And then I started getting hungry for a snack.  And then Riley woke up calling for one of her many night time mommy milk snacks.  And as I was rocking her, I started thinking about the fun time Leighton and I had at snack time the last couple of days.  And how he ALWAYS used to ask if it was snack time yet in the afternoons (and yesterday he asked for the first time since being home with me full days again, and I was already thinking the same thing before he asked!).  And how snacks are usually the most well stocked item in our pantry.  And you know how we get Riley into the car seat happily?  We offer her a snack (or "naah!" as she says it), of course!  And every flight, day trip, and excursion to the playground commences with one of us double checking that we have enough snacks.  And a good combination of healthy snacks and fun snacks.  And a mix of new, interesting snacks and old favorites.  And lots of times on the weekends, we plan our outings around where we can go to get a snack.  I will even admit that I sometimes dress the kids according to what snacks I plan on giving in case it's something messy.

So, since this blog is meant to share with you a little bit about our day-to-day life, and we live a life apparently (and deliciously) ruled by snacks, "Is it snack time yet?" was born. 

I did it.  A title.  A decision. 

And now to celebrate, I am off to have a snack!
