I'm back...well, for today!

Dang!  It's been a while.  I wish I was better at keeping up with this thing but I am obviously NOT! I picked T up from school yesterday and he was running a fever.  Tommy is out of town so that means momma has to take off work.  It was not a fun night...sleeping with a sick 2 year old is not fun!  His fever finally broke about 12:45 or so.  He has been acting like he felt fine today so I have taken advantage of my day off.

Not a lot goes on around here but here is a little update.

Tanner:
  • This kid is definitely not lacking in the personality department.  He is ALWAYS into something.   He keeps us laughing at all the stuff he does.  I need to upload all my pictures from my iPhone.  It is so funny looking through them. 
  • He talks up a storm. He can definitely carry on a conversation.  I adore his little voice.  It is so precious.
  • He is obsessed with Toy Story...well, "Woody Buzz!" I swear we watch one of the three movies at least once a day.  Sometimes he watches it two times in a row and then asks to watch it again!  He knows every character by name.  He has a ton of these little books that he got for his birthday.  They are among the favorites for us to read.
  • Most of the time you will find him without shoes on.  Most days when I pick him up from school he is the only shoeless kid in the class.  I guess they get tired of battling him to keep them on!
  • Even though he has a dislike for most shoes, he loves his "John boots."  I am glad no one can see his "play" clothes on a daily basis.  I am afraid we would be judged for letting our child dress the way he does! 
  • He wears 2T clothes and has his Daddy's wide feet.  I took him to stride rite to find shoes and they measured right at a 7.5.  The girl told me, "He needs wide shoes, I would probably get extra wide if I could."

Tommy was building a tree "fort" for T's 2nd birthday.  Tanner was helping!
Tommy:
  • He is on his way home from South Texas.  He left on Monday for one of his AgLead trips.  I wasn't too comfortable with him going down to the border especially after he told me stories they had heard. I am thankful that he is on his way home!  It has been a long week without him!
  • He LOVES his baby boy.  He takes him to school every day.  He gives him a bath every night.  He loves that T is old enough to ride around with him and check cows.
  • He is such a sweet husband.  He got me "The King's Speech" and a new Starbucks coffee cup for Easter.  Who gets Easter presents as an adult?  His gift from me...chocolate covered marshmallows.  He always out does me with gifts...always! BTW, "The King's Speech" is a must see!  It is a great movie!

Easter Sunday
Me:
  • School is winding down and I have summer FEVER bad this year!  I can not wait for this school year to be over.  Luckily, I did get my contract...even if my name was misspelled. Sadly, I know several people that didn't get their contracts renewed. 
  • I am newly obsessed with photography.  I love reading and looking a pictures on photographers blogs.  There is SO much to learn and you can easily get in over your head. I am currently saving my pennies for a new lens!!
  • I sometimes wish I had a body double that could help me keep things around here clean!  I swear...its the same thing every weekend...laundry and cleaning!  GAG...who wants to spend their days off doing either of those!?
  • I am still selling Scentsy.  It is and has been VERY slow but this area is saturated with people that sell it.  I have a few regular customers but I don't do much other than place an occasional order.
  • I miss my family and friends!  I wish we lived closer to home.  I am hoping to spend sometime this summer back in NE Texas!  It is awful going home for a weekend and not be able to see everybody!
