Tuesdays are so .... so...useless...

I really don't enjoy Tuesdays. They are that little waste of space in between the beginning of the week and the middle of the week. No one ever plans on doing anything on a Tuesday. You have lunch plans on Mondays to "get you thru the dreaded Monday!!" or the "lets do something Wednesday, its hump day!" Then of course you have your Friday plans. They kick off the weekend. For me, here as of late, all my days run together so everyday feels like a Tuesday to me. I have a mental list of to-dos. Tuesday is the day that Jaxons room gets the complete over haul. Bedding changed, clothes washed and put up, all his toys put up and organized, books back on the bookshelf. All for him to come home today and turn it all upside down. So much for an organized room for "hump day"! Last Tuesday I put his room cleaning off a day, so he was home to help me. Which by the way nothing really got done. His idea of helping me is doing things like in the picture over there. The fact that the washer hasn't spun out of control and walked out the back door blows my mind. I have to check his laundry basket regularly. He puts his shoes in there, books when he doesn't want to read them anymore, toys, balls, puzzle pieces to his books, his sisters headbands. So I have to remind myself every time I take his laundry out that I need to check for those things. I guess the next time the cat goes missing I will look for her under the sheets at the bottom of the laundry basket! HAPPY (dreaded) TUESDAY :~)

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...
