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 up.

Enjoy your day!! ;)

The torture. The madness

I try. I try to make food last. I try to stick to a grocery budget and sometimes ( more than I'd like) I fail. I'm slowly getting better at buying the important stuff in bulk. Our main meats. Beef. Chicken. Pork. I can stretch that out for months. The big things of Sunny D last about 3 weeks....etc you get the idea. The worst thing I could possibly do is go to Sams on a Saturday afternoon. WHY?? WHY do I do that to myself? It's not like I'm that busy Monday thru Friday! O well lesson learned. When I do go back it will be on a Tuesday morning....a few months from now!

New School Year

The new year is upon us all. The kids and I are glad to have our routines and schedules back in full swing. I don't think the transition phased dad one bit :) I have had a hard time adjusting to my time at home. Jaxon is going all day now and that leaves me with 7 hours of uninterrupted time. Time to get things done for my photography business. Time to clean the house. Time to organize closets and do the things that I neglected over the summer. I feel lost with out him in the afternoons. I just hope he's missing me as well :) Jessie wasn't as excited to go back to school. In her world summer would last until Christmas and Christmas break would end in May. But it is a bittersweet year for her. She's the big 5th grader and it's her last year at the school she has known since the 1st grade. A lot of friends will be going separate ways come next year when they enter Middle School. She will be taking on the violin this year. She is maturing and grow...

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...
