Enjoying the last of the 2011 boat rides with a warm drink in hand.
& our shades on :)
McQueen made it on our pumpkin this year.
Its been quiet. & thats okay. Since we returned from the beach:
*We hosted AT's 3rd bday party for his friends and family
*Chummed it up with our neighbors for the 1st annual community block party
*Hit up the Fair with the besties adn the kiddos
*Celebrated our 6th anniversary
*Attended what all Davidson county residents must - The Lexington BBQ Festival
*& nursed a small stomach bug that made its course through the 3 of us.
Well that list doesnt look quiet but it is.....nothing major just a few things here and there.
It seems like life never slows down for us anymore. & when it does we just take it all in and try to enjoy every minute of it.
We have lots of house chores we want to get accomplished around the house over the next few weekends but they are already looking packed! Tim & AT may get their first Daddy/Son event this weekend. I have my fingers crossed, its time! Plus Id love a dinner out with a girlfriend.
Ive found myself struggling more and more with living away from my friends. Esp K. Life has changed so much for both of us we just cant seem to make many gtg or phone calls work. Or the traveling part of it really puts a damper on things. Id love to be able to babysit L at the drop of a hat but I just cant and it makes me sad. I feel like Im missing out on so much with her when I know how close K was to AT when he was that age. We met and had a long talk about it and have vowed to try and do better and that we want our friendship to work and last. So we're trying. I guess thats all you can ask for.
Fall is gorgeous out our way of course and there is tons to do outside so we'll continue to enjoy that until the cold brings us inside. Family gatherings planned for the holidays of course, and an OH trip for Cmas. I hope it goes better than our July trip did.
I know its been a downer around here and well its been a mixed summer for me. Ive had good times and bad times. Mostly dealing with my inner deamons. Im not finished with the story Im well aware of that. I may regret it for mentioning this but things with my IL havent been the best either, Im sure as it always does things will come to a head bc if anyone knows me I can only take so much bf I blow. Things will be taken the wrong way and blown out of proportion and Ill look like the idiot so I just hold my tougue for now. We'll see how the next visit goes.
Onward - I go onward. Im still kicking ass in the basement. Not losing a ton of weight but really toning up. I see muscles that Ive never had before. Im dreaming of another baby......getting closer to that! My baby is getting bigger, older, and mouthier. & God love him hes just getting whinier and worse at the age of 3. WHY?? I feel like Im mean to him all the time. This too shall pass. I give an inch and he wants a mile. I just want to bottle what we had a year ago. Then I feel guilty about dreaming about another baby that I can do it all over again with. Mothers never are free of guilt. This I undertand.
So Ill stop rambling. That was a decent update. Happy Fall Ya'll!
