CRAZINESS

This one is for those who have said it's been too long since I posted. Here's a quick wrap-up of our crazy past few months, we moved and are currently building a house. During the summer we traveled to Arkansas to see family, enjoyed swim lessons, and Ethan went to camp at his school. In August, he started preschool which has been fantastic for him. Lathan is back at a mother's day out program two days a week. Last weekend mom, Laura, and I took the boys to The Great Wolf Lodge in Dallas (which I highly recommend!!). And we are leaving next week for the beach, at Ethan's vacation request this year. Hopefully, I can post more pictures later from the camera. But until then, here are a few.

NEWS!

We have news..... our house sold and we are moving at the end of June. Our house was not on the market, but the buyers wanted our particular neighborhood and liked our house. We had plans to move later in the year, but it seems God had something else in mind. So, we are just going with the flow.

Today was our salon/moving sale and it went very well- I'm just glad we don't have them often. Now with that behind us, I'm on to packing the house.

The past few weeks have been a little tough for me as both the boys have had pink eye. Lathan has had it for two weeks with a double ear infection. He then ended up falling and getting an eye injury (same eye as the pink eye) since his equilibrium was not quite right. Even the doctor said "he's had a rough week!" All I could think was, "what about me?" He eye is still not back to normal yet, but we are finally on the mend. But just to keep us on our toes, now Nate also has 2nd degree pink eye. I'm wondering if a nursing degree would have better suited me.


This is random, but here was my favorite conversation from today with Lathan (LJ):
LJ: It stopped raining
ME: Yes it did! Lathan, who made the rain?
LJ: Jesus and the Aggies did!

All I could do was laugh

I'm posting a few random pics from the last few weeks below.


My poor baby!





My mom, Wanda (a friend), and I took Ethan to see Wizard of Oz one evening. He had a blast!

BOYS WILL BE BOYS

Yesterday I woke up to my alarm at 7:15. I was suprised to find that Lathan was no longer in our bed (he usually comes in our room around 4-5am). I thought my sweet husband had carried him back to his bed when he left for work so I could enjoy a quiet morning alone. As I was sprawled out in bed, I heard a loud "whoo-hoo, yea, wooooooo." I then realized it was my children and they were in the backyard making all this ruckus. Next thing I know, they are in our room with huge smiles, in their pj's that are soaking wet from the sprinklers! All I could do was laugh...what a way to start your day! Just hope my neighbors felt the same.

Thankful

It seems like in this crazy whirlwind of life, I sometimes forget the simple things that I am so grateful for.

~A husband that treats me like a queen.
~Ethan's big smile where his nose crinkles.
~Lathan's bear hugs around my neck....I just melt.
~Playing the piano today- I really miss that!
~A job that I completely love (and getting to work with my mom and sister)
~Living in Texas...cold weather is NOT for me
~Laying on the couch with my snuggly blanket..it's even better when Ethan asks me if I'm cold and covers me up.
~Listening to a child's prayer at night-PRICELESS!
~Date nights
~Having a child that tells me he loves me without prompting.
~Picnics
~My family's health
