Colds

We have caught our first colds of the season and man I miss those days where you can actually take something to help. Danny went Sunday to the drugstore to find something that I could take. So the pharmacist gave him Pseudophed. So I thought I will try to only take it at night, well bad idea. That has kept me up for two nights, so I guess I will just let my body and the vitamins try to fight off this cold. I always love sleep, but right now I really need sleep!!!!

Austin is on his way back home from Gatlinburg. Trenton has missed him so much and we all can't wait to see him. However, looks like it will be Thursday night before he comes home. With work, I really can't drive him back and forth to my grandmother's everyday. So Thursday night after work we are going to pick him up, and I am going to take off Friday. Yea!!! I love long weekends.

Saturday we are going to have a yardsale. We have accumulated too much stuff, and some of it must go! Whatever does not sell will be donated because with a new baby comes more stuff and I really would like to have a clutter free house. Then Saturday afternoon we are going to take the boys to Tate Farms. The boys love visiting there each year, and we love it because it is so close!

I hope everyone enjoys the rest of the week!!!

BIG NEWS!!!

I'm Pregnant!!! Danny and I are going to be blessed with another little one, and we both are so excited! I go to the doctor Oct. 30th to find out all of the details of when this new little one will be joining our family. I was going to wait but I really can't keep secrets for long periods!

Well Austin will be heading out of town tomorrow for a long weekend trip to Gatlinburg with my grandparents. He is such a lucky young man. The rest of us will be staying home to watch a little football and go to a cookout with some friends from work.

Besides for all of that we are still staying busy with work. We had a record quarter this month and hopefully that will pay off. Danny and I have been looking at houses and talking to a mortgage company. I think we are going to wait a little longer. While the trailer will be a little cramped, I am still a little uneasy with the economy. So we are still going to look into this new subdivison in January. Danny's mom works for the builder and we could have a little input on how we want it layed out. And seeing how we just looked at two houses that we both loved, we now know what we want and don't want in a house. Or so we think!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

A Little Update

Life is finally getting back on track, and what an amazing few weeks it has been. Everyone is doing good. I am thankful everyday for the husband I have and the two wonderful little boys that we are blessed with. I have even finally talked Danny into joining us at church. This is a huge accomplishment, but also an answered prayer. It is hard trying to get up and go to church by yourself with two little ones, but Sunday was such a wonderful day for me. To get up and go to church as a family, what a blessing.

Well onto other news...Trenton turned 5 on Sunday. I can't believe my baby is 5. We took him out to lunch at the mexican restaurant. He changed his mind numerous times, and when he finally decided that he wanted to the pizza place by our house, well they were closed on Sunday. So tomorrow we are going to take him to Mama Mia's to make up for them being closed. He was very upset, but he had a great birthday.

Well this weekend will be the big birthday party for the two of them. It is mainly just family, with a few of our friends. We have always had their parties at home but this year we are having it at Pump It Up. So not only will the kids have fun but so will the adults!!! And it will be a nice change and mommy does not have to do any cleaning. WOO HOO!!!

I will post pics soon of Austin's birthday dinner and Trenton's lunch. My sister has the pics of Austin's b'day, so maybe I can convince her to put them on my page. If not I will have to wait till she is back in Alabama, which will be in a few weeks. :(

So a little more news about Trenton. He has been misbehaving a little at daycare, so Tuesday Danny and I had a meeting at Primrose. And we have come to the conclusion that he is bored. They did testing on the preschoolers last week and Trenton is testing a year ahead. We are so excited, but also a little nervous. Hopefully the teacher is going to give him extra work from now on when he finishes early.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

My Life

So as many of you know by now, I haven't been blogging a lot lately. I really didn't know what to say and I really didn't want to talk. So to fill everyone in my last two months here goes. Danny and I have been married for 8 wonderful years, but we hit a rough patch. And while we lived in the same house, it was almost like we lived seperate lives. We both didn't talk or touch each other, it was like I was living with someone I didn't know anymore. So we spent some time apart. This has been the hardest time in my life, however, I learned just how much I truly love my husband. While living alone with the boys I learned that I could keep a better house, be a better mom, and hopefully be a better wife.

So on to the happy part of all of this, Danny has moved back in with me and his boys. And it is absolutely the best time in our lives. We have both went to see counselors to learn how to talk to each other and how to deal with what was going on with us on the inside. I think we both just needed some changes and that is what we are going to do.

I will post more soon. I have lots of catching up to do. I will try to post pics this weekend of Austin's birthday dinner. Since both of the boy's birthdays are in September, we always do a big combined party, but we always take them out to eat on their special day. So we took Austin to Shogun, and we all had a blast.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

Busy....Busy...Busy

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. But work has been a little crazy lately and doesn't seem to be slowing down. Which means long hours and then with Austin back in school, there are just not enough hours in the day. Besides for that, really there is not a lot going on with us. Trenton finally got a Pre-K teacher, which is he really likes. And Austin's teacher is great this year!!!

Hopefully soon something exciting will happen. Just pray that we don't have anymore hail storms.

The Boys Pictures at the Park


















Well here are a few of the shots from the boys photo session at the park. Hopefully soon I will find time to do a slideshow off all the shots. Trenton wasn't very happy in these photos, but we got a few good shots. If you notice there aren't a lot of smiles, well that would be because the boy's wanted to fake smile. I hope you enjoy, I know we had a great time watching the photo session.

Sister is Visiting

This weekend my sister decided to come in from Atlanta for a visit, and we were all so happy to see her. She has been traveling a lot lately. She has traveled 10 states in about a month. She is a very busy lady. Well she has recently accepted a position in South Carolina so she wanted to come visit before she moved. The boys have been attached to her hip. They have loved every minute that she has been here. And I have enjoyed it because I get to get a little accomplished around the house. Plus, she has been helping out with my laundry. That has been nice!!! I hate that she is moving, but I know she has to for her career. One day, hopefully she can find a job back here in Huntsville or at least Atlanta so she is close.

Other than this, we have been getting ready for school to start back. We got Austin's teacher's name, Mrs. Harmon, and so far I have heard good things. I really hope Austin has a great year, after last year he needs someone that wants him to learn and pushes him to excel.

Well I got Trenton's uniforms in....and well I ordered all the wrong sizes. Now we had nothing to go by and I ordered all his normal sizes. Little to say, he want have uniforms for school next week because it says they need 15 days for returns. I guess I will go by some solid polos to get us by. If anyone sees any good deals, please let me know. He can only wear red, white, or navy.

I hope everyone enjoys the rest of your week. And have a great weekend shopping with the "tax free" weekend.
