So, I decided to try out this blogging thing to make family updates a little easier.....
The shirt I am wearing today says it all: "This Mom has it all". I truly believe that. I am married to my best friend. This November we will celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. We have been together for nearly 10 years! And every year gets better and better! We have two absolutely wonderful children. Andy is 9 years old. He is in third grade and currently plays football. Jason has named him Pac Man Mince because he had an interception during his very first game. I don't know what is better....watching Andy play or watching Jason watch Andy play. He is definately a proud Daddy. Katie is 2 years old and a bundle of energy. She is so sweet and loving and always entertaining.
Andy was sick this past week. He had to stay home from school for three days he was so miserable! The doctor said he had a high fever virus. It definately got worse before it got better and he had us a little worried! But, he is doing much better now. He went back to school on Thursday and is getting back to his old self :) YEAH!
Katie is doing well. For a while there, she was always sick. Constant sinus and double ear infections. We almost put tubes in her ears, but just as we were making the decision she stopped getting sick. Of course, it is alway super hard with her because she is allergic to prescription antibiotics :( We are glad to have her healthy again!
This weekend is packed full of activities. Saturday is Little Elm's annual Autumn Fest. I am thinking of entering Katie in the pretty baby contest. Not sure yet though. I wish they had a contest for boys too. I mean, I do have 2 very good looking children! Hopefully we will get to spend some family time out at the festival playing games and just having some fun! Then Andy has a football game tomorrow evening. I have really enjoyed watching him play....even though i don't know a thing about football! I am learning though :) And Katie enjoys being the half time entertainment. She loves the cheerleaders! She spends the games right on the fence watching them cheer. Then, when the music comes on, she imitates thier moves. It can be quite entertaining! It is kind of neat to hear the announcer call both of your children's names. Andy for a good play and Katie for entertainment. After the football game, we have a birthday party to attend. It should be a nice relaxing evening spent with friends. Sunday, we have yet another birthday party to attend. Then it is home for an afternoon filled with sports....at least for the boys. I will probalby sneak off and turn on Lifetime or something :)
Well, I guess that's it for now. I truly am blessed for the wonderful family I have in my life, and my extended family as well! I have the most wonderful parents a girl could ask for! My children love seeing their Mummum and Papa...or PawPaw as Katie calls him. Of course, noone can compete with my sister! I don't know what kind of magic spell she has cast over my children, but she seems to rank #1 with them. I am truly glad to have them all actively involved in our lives. My parents haven't missed a game of Andy's yet. They even come to my softball games :) Of course, they say they are coming to see Jason play (when he plays on my coed team), but they love me :) I am very lucky!
More to come......
