today...


Not much has been going on in the household here lately. The potty training is back in business and we are pleased to announce that he has gone potty twice in the toilet. Yesterday and today. Only # 1...but it's a start. I am loving work. I think I love my hours more than anything. I get off before 2 everyday. I don't feel like I am at work very long even though I get there at 6:15 am! Jill is doing good. Her and I are going to plan her 10th birthday today. Its not until the second Saturday in March....but I like to have things done ahead of time...and she can help plan. Josh was out with shingles last week. That was random. No one else caught them. And he returned to work today. All to have his foot run over...but he is fine. My uncle leaves this Saturday to go back to Africa. We will have a get together later in the week. He isn't sure how long he will be gone. My grandma is finally feeling better. She is moving around alot better and is back to her old self. I do need to plan some treats for the kids to take to school/daycare for Valentines Day. Although I am enjoying time in the kitchen and teaching Jill a few things and letting Jaxon lick the bowls....I have thought about going store bought.....but it's just not personal. Jaxon has a visit with his Dr this Friday. He is becoming knock-kneed. Not sure what that is? I have a picture for that! It may not be anything serious at all. I mean he gets around just great. Walks and runs like nothing. It's just something we have noticed and would rather the Dr take a look just in case. If something does need to be done...we would rather fix it now than later when he is older and maybe into sports :) That is all for my Sunday Ramblings today. I do have 2 very intense football games to watch. I would like to see the Bears go to the Superbowl. Since the Saints couldn't and I will take blame for that since I wasn't wearing my jersey during all of their games!! Happy Sunday!

WE GOT MARRIED!!

My dear-to-my-heart little sister got married. September 4, 2012. To the man she met 6 years ago to the date. Love stories like that make me smile. And all though she was hesitant 6 years ago when i twisted her arm enough and forced her to set up a MySpace, in no time she met her husband. So I like to secretly think I had a hand in all this. After all the whole MySpace thing was my idea ;) Tim and Jennifer,          I am proud of the two of you. You are both very dear to my heart and always will be. Jennifer, you already know that you are the best little sister this girl could ask for. Tim, I have liked you from day one. And over the years I have grown to love you. You are the best person in the world for my sister. (after all she was able to avoid alot of crazies online after y'all met) HA HA!! I wish you guys many many many years of happiness! You guys are amazing together. And the best aunt and uncle to Jaxon. Love always!! Jessica

All is well...and everyone is home...

Jynx came home today. He has a cast over his pins. They ended up finding more wounds that needed stitches so he has 3 different sets of stitches on his leg and his paw is still really swollen. He is on 3 different pain meds as well. And we are still baffled as to what happened. Josh went to let him and the other dog out and came in for maybe 20 minutes...went back outside and Jynx was hurt. We have searched the backyard and garage but can not figure out what has happened. So who knows. Jynx isn't saying either! It was bad enough to have caused some small places to stitch and 6 pins worth. Its really sad. His little throat is dry from where they had the tube in his throat so he cant really whimper. And the other bad thing is, is we were going to take him to get groomed and now we have to wait 8 weeks! O well. I'm really glad that he is ok and it wasn't AS bad as it could have been and hes home now. Thank goodness for puppy insurance!!!!

When I was your age....

It's funny because I ran across this article about the gadgets kids have these days and the things they will not know existed....or even how they worked. A month or so ago I say to Josh..."Kids these days will never know what watching a TV with antennas will be like or how to rewind a cassette tape." Part of my childhood we had a TV we turned on with a set of pliers and would have to adjust the antennas depending on what channel we were watching out of the 5 we had. Caller ID didn't exist. Walkmans were huge!! You researched homework in an encyclopedia. You recorded shows on a VHS. There was actually a time before "reality TV". You never had the want or need to know what your friends were doing every minute of their day. You actually had to remember someones phone number. Neat Handwriting. Swimming pools with diving boards. Waiting for the #1 hit in the movies to make it to TV. Hershey bars in silver wrappers. Having to manually unlock car doors. Playing ou...
