Big news...

Found out this week we are expecting...

New baby will be arriving in July!!

A day off...

Nothing but rest and relaxation today...

Curt and I both have today off so we aren't doing a whole lot of anything...

I got to take a nap this morning, Curt went and got Hunter from school so I could sleep... How wonderful!!!

Tonight we are going to go out to eat with Curt's parents, Dale and Judy and then spending the night just hanging out!

More later!

Just one of those days...

Somedays are better than others.

Somedays I love getting out of the house to go to work, not so much lately.

These days I would give anything to stay at home all day and all night.

I feel like I am missing so much with the boys.

I get to spend all day with them and I'm am grateful for every second, but I miss staying at home with them.

Maybe someday it will be feasible. Right now it isn't really. I wish it was.

I miss my guys. All three of them.

Ugh.

The boys are at my parents house...

Curt is in bed...

And me?

I am sick.

It is too early to be up on a Saturday morning. I didn't sleep well last night, its hard to sleep when your stomach hurts and can't sleep comfortably, nausea is taking over my life right now & my bed was empty because Curt was at work.

Now he is home and I haven't been in bed. Maybe I'll go try to pass out for a few hours and pray that whatever it is that I have, I don't share with him.

Goodnight world.

Fall, rain and laundry oh my!

Has anyone just stopped, looked around and really noticed the fall colors? Just amazing... I feel like I'm seeing them through new eyes this year. Everything seems brighter, bolder, perfect.

It is one of those cold rain fall days... It isn't raining hard, but hard enough to be a pain and cold enough for winter coats!

Hunter is at school and Curt is hunting so Ian and I are hanging out this morning, trying to get laundry done before they go to Grandma and Papa's house tonight. Well, I'm trying to get laundry going and Ian is so enthralled with Diego right now I don't think a tornado, or even chocolate chip pancakes, could peel his eyeballs off the t.v. He doesn't get to watch cartoons much so he is enjoying this!!

This has been a nice 4 day weekend for me, I wish I could make it last longer!

And so my weekend begins...

Our schedules aren't like everyone else's. My weekend starts when everyone's week begins, or in the middle of it. Today is the start of a 4 day weekend for me but it is Monday, so we had to get up early and take Hunter to school, 20 miles away. We are home for not even 10 minutes when Curt walks up the stairs. His dad called him. Hunter's school is on lockdown. Not something a mom wants to hear... why on earth would they lock down my baby's school? I did what every self-respecting, concerned mother would do. I called the elementary. Mom's apparently get transferred... straight to the principal. (Can I just say it is REALLY weird talking to the principal as a MOM and not as the student who is trying to talk her way out of detention, suspension or whatever the punishment is that time around!) The principal informed me that the elementary is no longer on lockdown, the settlement school had a threat of a school shooting, so they locked everyone down as a precaution. Apparently all is better now.

Thank goodness. I'm not ready for him to be in school. 5 more years. Then I will let him start. Maybe.

Little Surprises

It is the little things he does that takes my breath away... Stops me in my tracks... Get a look on my face like "Are you serious!?"... The little things that lets me know he loves me and constantly reminds me why I fell in love...

Friday we decided to go get some warmer clothes so we stopped at the mall to see what we could find. I found some shirts for the boys (on sale, bonus!) and we were just walking the mall while I was talking to Tiffany on the phone. A few minutes later, Curt starts walking into a store, I tell Tiff "Um, I gotta call you back... Curt just walked into a jewelry store." When I caught up to him in the store, he asked what color I liked, I told him I liked a light pink and pointed at something to show him what I meant. He double checked, "You like that one?" Yes I say to him... He then asked the jeweler if he could see it closer. "You like it then?" "Yes honey, I do" and I kind of sigh and walk away... I don't like to be teased. I was turned around and starting to herd the kids out when I hear him say to the lady, "Okay, we will take it". My head whipped around so fast! I think it caught the jeweler by surprise too because she was starting to put it away!

A half hour later I had a gorgeous necklace on thanks to my honey!!

~SO IN LOVE!!~
