If you come here for the pictures, you may want to stop now. This post won't have any fun pictures, because I haven't taken any in almost 2 weeks! Amazing, I know! Well, actually I've taken lots of pictures, but they are all from preschool.
I was just thinking that I needed to write down a few thoughts and a few tidbits about my sweet family.
Life is so busy. Sometimes it feels like I let it get out of control and lots of sweet moments are passing me by. In fact, I know that I do that. It's a bad habit of mine. But I don't know how to say no.
My sweet kids are so good to put up with me! I am so blessed that they are all so sweet-natured and most of the time, well behaved! J.D. and Tyson are such good helpers and they help keep the house picked up and do a big chunk of my chores. I love them for it! They are continually helping Little Miss Pip to clean up her room, because she is continually making a mess of it! Tea party's 24/7. That's the life Piper would lead if she could.
Josh is so busy. He works so hard for our family. It's sad, because we don't see him as much as we (I) would like, but we are well provided for and for that, I am grateful. We may not have everything we want, but we have everything we need!
JD is so busy with school, scouts and sports. He really seems to be enjoying choir and loves to sing. He loves scouts. Last week we didn't have den meeting, because we had pack meeting. J.D. beat us home on Wednesday. I came in and he was decked out in full uniform waiting on the couch to go. He was so sad when we didn't have scouts. Right now it is basketball season. He is loving it and loves being on the same team as Camden. Although, he is counting the days until football season.
Tyson is Tyson. My sweet little guy, who melts my heart. His new obsession is to help me do dishes. He unloads the dishwasher and is so proud of himself, every time he does it. He is counting down the days until baseball starts. We have to get through soccer first! He loves to play baseball and is really good at it. We went and practiced a few nights this week. He is loving Kindergarten and has some really good friends, Logan and Aidan in his class. The only one missing is Carson G. But he gets to see him alot because of PTO play dates :).
Piper is a mess maker. That is just the stage of a 3-year-old. She is so much fun though. She is so girly! It's amazing to me, because I am so not! She loves to have her nails done, her makeup done and loves, loves to wear tutu's. She wants to dance so badly and we are trying to find her a class. She is actually quite coordinated for her age and I look forward to seeing what she can do. She is loving preschool and loves to hang with her girls Addison and Adilyn. They are truly the three musketeers.
As for me. I'm busy. Busy with being mom, busy being Teacher Brandy, busy being Sister Doty, busy being the Alisons Pantry lady and busy being one of those crazy PTO ladies! I have really enjoyed preschool because I get to hang with Shelley and I love, love, love the kids. Most of them :). I am sort of enjoying scouts, because it is fun to see them excel and it's fun to be with JD. I hope someday to learn to love it. I am loving PTO this year. It's so much fun and all the girls and I have gotten to be really good friends. I love that bunch of gals! Alison's Pantry is continually growing and it's been such a blessing.
As for being a mom, it's the greatest thing ever. I am truly blessed with wonderful kids. I am so grateful for them and the joy they bring!
