A pretty sorry blogger...

I know it has been a while since I've "blogged". I skipped a few weeks during the holidays and then it got easier and easier to not sit down and "talk". We have been super busy. Just to catch you up...

I turned 31 in January. It was a hard birthday. I felt really old. I always miss my childhood on my birthday. I miss my grandparents on my birthday, because they were always there. My friend Kelly whipped me into shape though. She told me to get over it, and I did. I'm glad I have her.

We went to Louisiana in January to celebrate my Nana's 80th birthday. She looks great!! I hop my skin looks this good at 80!!

My mom came a couple of weeks ago for Mady Kate. Her school had grandparents day. We had tons of fun as usual.

Jack took a spill at Uncle Matt's house. He and some concrete had a little encounter. He looked awful. Right between the eyes. It's amazing how quickly their sweet skin heals. You can hardly see it now .

Lucy had her 3rd grade musical on Friday. She had to audition for her singing part and made. She did such a great part. I will attach the link for the video. She is the second from the right. She's alot like her mom, loves the mic!!! hahaha

I have more to talk about, but I need to get some clothes out of the dryer. I'll try to blog soon.

Life currently under construction...

Beat down

I took the kiddos to the doctor today to get their flu shots. We had to wait a few minutes in the waiting room with everyone else in DeSoto county. As you know Jack has started walking and he would rather stand than to sit in my lap now. I had to sign a vaccine form for each of them. I had a clip board with all 3 papers in my lap, Jack standing in front of me and the girls were on either side. All of the sudden, this big hoss of a child comes around the corner and walks straight up to Jack and pats him on the head. Then he pats a little harder, harder, harder and then he hits my sweet baby love as hard as he could " about the head". Jack starts screaming and the child's father comes running saying, "No NO NO, stop hitting!!!!" The man apologizes and then asked how old Jack was. Come to find out Jack and "Mike Tyson" were the same age. I think they were putting steroids in his bottle because he was huge and( remember I love babies, but)... He was mean looking. Jack's first school yard fight and he lost. Next I'm expecting John to teach him self -defense or whatever. I told John than Jack didn't lose the fight, he just turned the other..cheek..
Happy Thanksgiving all!!!!

Lucy and our neighbor, Ferrell at their cheer show tonight.

Cheer

Lucy's cheer class did a show for the parents today.

Do you sleep on a pillow?

The answer is probably yes. Yes, you put your head on a pillow. Not Jack. He sleeps on the whole pillow. Loved it and had to share.

I love my friends. I have been so blessed all of my life to have wonderful supportive friends. I have friends who would give me the shirt off their backs, friends who would cook a meal for my family if I were unable to, friends that I could call and could call me in the middle of the night without question. Old friends, new friends, I love them all!!!!!

Today I was able to talk to an old friend. We both had our baby boys last July and we had not talked in over a year. We met in the third grade and we have kept in touch since. She's one of those friends that as soon as we start talking it's like we were never apart. I love the sound effects that she makes as we are talking, just like she did in the third grade!!!! Thanks Tiff!!!! You absolutely made my day!! Can't wait to see you in Jena!!!!

Thanks to all of my friends. You know who you are girls and I love each of you more than you know.

I get to work tomorrow. Shopping for Christmas decor for John's office( inside and out). Yippee!

side note- does anyone know the laundry fairy. I really need her to come by.
