With Baby Megan!

 

 

This is what my husband does everyday and weekend! All those pipes are his from the basement to the top floor! He works so hard for me and the kids!

 

Owen and Jenna Update

My blog is a way for me to document my kids so here is an update.

Owen, turned 4 in February and got a spider-man room and bunk beds. He is still a lover boy and and I'm trying to cherish every minute of it. It hurts to think of the day when my baby boy won't want to cuddle with me. I enrolled him in pre-school and although sad, I'm excited for this phase and excited for him as well. He loves to talk and tells me everything. He is very sweet to Jenna and they love to keep each other company.

Jenna, turned 2 in April and got her big girl room. I'll have to post a picture later. She thinks she is tough stuff and you can see in her face how proud she is of her room when she walks in there. She will talk your ear off and has been since she was about a year old. Dr. Wilkes told us she'd grow to be 5'9"!! She loves to let me blow dry her hair. Her room won't fit a rocking chair anymore and every night she used to say "Mommy, rock me 2 minutes?" I really miss that.

Facebook Grouch

Over the last few weeks I have been SICK of Facebook. For a while I logged on every chance I got to get everyone's updates. There are some people that update their status several times a day, some that do once a day, some only once a week. A lot of which are superficial or negative. Here's the deal, the people I never see or hang out with are the one's that update their status all the freakin time. Why do I care what they are doing!! I don't! I'm sick of reading about their life and I might never see them again ever.

Yesterday, I went through my friends and made a "block list". A list of people I never care to see their updates and they will not be able to read my updates.

I feel a little bitter about the situation and maybe I should just not get on Facebook so much, would that solve the problem? I didn't have much to read when I logged on this morning? And even started wondering what so and so that I never talk to is doing today :)

Life is too short, I need to spend less time on Facebook and more time with God.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Tonight I am gonna keep it short and sweet, I'll save the good stuff for the "book". If your not family, I can explain. We have a journal and every year everyone that comes to Thanksgiving Dinner is forced, I mean required to write in it. I think it started when I was in high school maybe before. It's so much fun to look back over the years of who came, who didn't, who said what, etc. It shows the different places in our lives we were at each year.

This year I am thankful for:
1. My God and Saviour. He choose me before time and everyday I do not deserve His love. Because of Him I get to look forward to the best gift of all, eternal life!!

2. My Husband. He's my love, my best friend, my protector, my provider, my babies daddy, he's everything.

3. My Kids. Owen and Jenna are the best things in the world. If you don't have kids you are missing out on the best love of all!

4. My Family. ALL of them, KY and CO! I have so many people that love me that I am so lucky. Most families now a days are broken. My family has tons of people and we are all close. I am so lucky.

5. Growing up in a Christian household. Sometimes I sit and think about how God picked me to grow up surrounded by His Word. I have to stop sometimes because it drives me nuts. I think it's like I won the lottery before I was even born. God has blessed my family so much.

6. Our Health!

7. My Church. My friends.

8. Rob and I having jobs and being able to pay all our bills :)

9. Computers, internet, cell phone...

10. All the good food...I'm gonna eat like it's the last Thanksgiving!
