Not by choice...

....that I haven't blogged in a few weeks. Where did June go BTW?? i looked around and its gone...well after today. Our computer is on the fritz...it works good one day and the next its shutting itself off by itself....those dang gateway trolls are at it again!!! Well as of the 29th we have a 7 month old with 2 teeth!!! He is eating alot more baby food and only about 4-5 bottles a day...i cant wait until the day comes and i don't have to make bottles anymore!!...I'm twisting a nipple to a half gallon of milk and saying ..."here you go son...have at it!!!".....i have so many pictures i want to put on here but afraid to add any more to the computer until we call gateway or get a spy sweeper back on there. o well. at least i have the company Internet...teehee!!
it has been sooooo flippin hot this past few weeks on top of rainy humid days....its miserable!....we go on vacation the 16-19th and i can not be happier to get away for a few days....this will be our first time away from jaxon...well not technically but the first time this far away. My little sister is keeping him for me. i have a feeling we will pick him up the day we get back and he will be sucking his thumb. she was a thumb sucker..(sorry Jenn!!) and thinks it would be soooo cute if he did and the really funny thing is, is that he will only at her house....and she doesn't do anything about it but "o look,how cute!!" and take pictures. I will send you his dentist bill when the time comes aunt Jennifer!! i hope to have the computer back to normal by this weekend. it will be his first 4th of July and i want to capture his face at the fireworks show!! i told josh his day off is going to be spent on the phone with gateway and any other tech support we can get our hands on...LOL...for the most part...Ive been hot...stressed...and working my butt off...all so i can enjoy our 4 days away this summer! o well that's life and all that comes with it i guess. no one ever told me being a grown up wasn't fun. so why when i was about 10 or 11 i couldn't wait to go to work all day....be a mom....have my own place...bills in my name..and a car to gas??? someone slap me...please....ill let you!!

Back to reality....

Our trip to Austin was a blast! I have decided that if we are ever able to return there, that I need to be in alot better shape!!! I was soooo tired and sore...from walking mind you!! I would lose 10lbs from all the walking and sweating and then gain 15 every time I ate!! There was never a dull moment on this little vacation of ours...we made the most of everyday. We were glad to return home to our chunky monkey though!! And glad to announce that he has stopped sucking his thumb since he has left aunt Jennifer's!! I wish could have taken a picture of how tired she looked when we got home, because I knew this would kick her tail!! But her watching them all for us (Jaxon plus the cat and dog) was greatly appreciated and I hope nothing scared her away!! Pictures and great stories behind them coming soon....probably this Sunday because we get the computer Saturday but we are going to the local Harley Davidson Party and I won't really want to mess with the computer after picking it...

a million and one....

i have always had an interest in photography. i have always wanted to carry a camera with me every where i go. And most of the time i think i will just remember what my eyes see. Forever. And i don't always remember. I want to capture things, in case one day, my son wants to see the world the way i saw the world. the way i saw him growing up. that is really all i have done is capture him over the years. but i have always wanted to turn that hobby into a part time job. a job that allows me to help families capture what they cant. moms aren't always in the pictures. so i want to make it my job and have moms in the pictures with their families.  I started my business in October of 2014 and since then I have captured a wedding, beautiful children, families, an engagement session and of course the countless pictures of my kids. we took Jill's 8th grade pics to a whole new level this year. and i cant wait to capture her high school years. i have 2 more weddings, an engagement...

Im going to take a break!

This potty training business is for the birds! "He will go when he is ready" is all people keep telling me. My response ..."He does go when hes ready...in his diaper!!" Maybe if we just take a break and not rush it, it will all fall together. Like him sleeping without being bundled, going to nap or bed without a bottle, feeding himself his food with his own silverware. All the other milestones in between that he did when ..."he was ready" Going to the potty is a big deal for kids. This little adventure has been stressful on him. Not just me and Josh. I mean...hes constantly having to take off his pants and diaper, either sit on the little potty or put his seat on the big potty, sit down and get comfortable, make sure everything is aiming where it needs to be.....for nothing! He laughs the whole time he is on there. Except if the seat is really cold. That doesn't make him laugh at all. So for now we are on a break from going to the bathroom all at on...
