Like petals in the wind...

Today is gone, like petals in the wind, just flew on by! Busy busy but not bad. Pretty productive. Living on the cheerful positive side. Nice neighborhood ;-).

Lots of home projects on my mind. I wanna get my comforter recovered, couch recovered, new curtains too! I just feel fresh n shiny n new and wanna make everything reflect that!!

Let your light shine through me onto everyone in my life!

I love TobyMac and Matthew West! Geez I'd love for them to both be in concert together at the House of Blues or Nokia theater!

Busy Week

This has been a busy two days at work. But very productive. I like feeling accomplished and on a good roll. I like clearing my desk off and marking things off my list! Next week I start another quarterly report! Fun!!

Jaxon is growing way too fast. Wearing some 6-9 mth clothes and he is only 3 1/2 mths old! He is a big coo'er!! He smiles so much. On week days he sleeps almost all evening and all night except one quick feeding around 3-4:30 am.

Our morning routines are getting easier. At least when Chris helps they work good. The older I get the more I realize I THRIVE on routines.

Also addicted to post-it notes ha ha ha.

Jaxon seems to be teething early. He gnaws on his hand ALOT and gets fussy and loves to chew on my fingers! I've tried to feed him cereal with a spoon but he pushes it all out with tongue or gets choked on it.

Jaxon has bad reflux. They also think he has laryngomalacia. I'll discuss at later date more!

Gavin is growing into such a sweet young man!! He knows his yes ma'am, no ma'am, sorry, yes sir, no sir, thank you's real well. He has normal tantrums too like any kid. Some important things about Gavin right now:
* loves his Mickey mouse and puppy blanket still
* he loves fish sticks, chicken, spagetti, macaroni and cheese, chips, peanut butter and fluff sandwiches, French fries, pizza, instant breakfast w muffins, donut holes, ketchup, Salisbury steaks(snake) lots of things!!
* he LOVES watching movies, especially on his lil DVD player that he calls dbd player :-).
* he loves cars movie and toy story and shrek the most.
* he has slept in his own big full size bed for like 2 yrs now.
* he is not really afraid of anything in particular
* he loves gum and cupcakes and ice cream.
* he loves to have mommy read him stories and loves for mommy to sing him songs
* he can kind of sing itsy bitsy spider, wheels on the bus, 5 little monkeys, and you are my sunshine.
* his best friend at school is still Hunter, since infant class! He also says Layla is his girlfriend.
* he is having a Very hard time potty training. :-(
* he loves helping in the kitchen w cooking or dishes

I'm sure I'll think of more later......

Church.

Hi God. It's been great feeling you around lately.

Today I went to church with Michelle K. We are both trying to straighten our walk right now and it's awesome to share that with each other! I'm in love with alot of Matthew West songs! I love Something to Say and To Me alot!! I may have walked in the wrong direction for almost a decade now, but God forgives me, so I have to let the guilt go.

I pray everyday that God will shine through me onto Chris. So he can see and believe what he sees.

I want my boys to grow up loving God and knowing no matter what he us there for them just like I am.

Today's sermon was about clearing our innate conscience. If God has been asked to forgive our sins, then he has done his part, now we have to let it go and move forward.

Saturday Night

Went to eat yummy dinner at Applebees with my dad and sister. Then we hit Orange Leaf for delicious frozen yogurt! Gavin really enjoyed it! Then we came home to play in the yard for a little bit. I love when the weather starts to slowly cool off! Niiiiiice! Now inside to watch a movie together. Love my family time.

Nasty Boys!

Gavin did the most disgusting thing ever this morning!!

I thought he was being a sweet boy, laying on the couch watching his movie, letting mommy sleep in a few minutes. So I woke up at 8:45, went in the lving room and he was sitting on couch snuggled up watching his movie! I knew he would have pooped in his pullup but I was still willing to do that for a little extra sleep! I laid him down to change him and there was poop down his legs. Gross. Put him through shower and then relaxed for a couple hrs.

THEN he came over to me and shoved his new pointer finger toy thing in my face and said "ewww smells like poopy". Sure enough it was covered in poop. I said WHY is it covered in poop. He said "I painted!!!" ohmygosh!! I said "what?!" he said "my cars!" i said "show me right now!" and he took me to dining room and showed me how he had painted poop all over his little tykes ride on car!!! Gross!!! So I went to wash it and wand in the tub and he came up to me. I said is there anymore poop you'd like to show me "yes" where? "table" sooo he took me to show me how he painted the legs and underside of the kitchen table!!!

Absolutely nasty!!

I had to shower myself after!!

New Leaf

It's been a really really long time since I blogged. I used to love it. I'm gonna try to start up again with this handy dandy blog app on my phone!

I'm not about to try to catch up on years worth of stuff so I'll just give some big highlights so future blogs will make sense!

Gavin just turned 3 yrs old this month! He is so big and sweet! He is very funny! We are very stubbornly working on potty training still. VERY difficult with him.

In June I gave birth to my second son, Jaxon Chandler. He spent the first two HORRIBLE weeks of his life in NICU for breathing problems. He came home for the first time on June 30. He is surprisingly the happiest baby EVER. Laughs all the time.

Chris, my husband, left and spent my whole pregnancy gone. We were going to truly get a divorce. Until the day jaxon was born. It changed everything. Now we are together since that day and working through our problems. Just yesterday I finally came to the decision to truly forgive him for so much and to really give our marriage this one last chance.
