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!!

Where did September GO?!

My son was looking at the calendar the other day. Trying to count how many days to Halloween, he turns around and looks at me and says...."Where the heck did September GO?!" I laughed and said you are too young to worry about where the time is going! But yea I have no idea where it went. It seems like my post here lately is dwelling on where all the time went. Its definitely going by fast! And it doesn't help when every other post on Facebook is counting down to Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! Geez people can we just get thru the first 6 weeks of school?! Speaking of school i have a a rant about the system. Or the lack there of anyway: I remember being disciplined in school. If I broke a rule I was sent to the office where my mom was already waiting for me. (Didn't help that she worked at my elementary school) but still. So not only did the principal lecture me about how talking in class and being disruptive was disrespectful, I had to get an ear full from...

I do it

  Since he could talk he has had a certain Independence about him. "I do it". I loved it when his little voice would say those words. Even though he sometimes had no clue what he was doing. Or he wanted to lend a helping hand with me, I have always admired that he was a hands on learner .     Now that he is 4 he really doesn't need much help getting dressed. I still stay present just in case he needs my help. "I do it all by myself" are the words he says now. It makes me a little sad that he doesn't need me for everything now.     "I'm hungry" are words I hear alot from him. So I tell him find something to eat and I will help you make it. I let him put the snack ideas together. He can open the fridge. He can open the pantry. So he can grab whatever his little heart desires.     Here he is with minimal help from me making a peanut butter sandwich. "Watch me mom" are the words I hear when he does something a...
