Boys, Boys, Boys

Boy do they grow up fast. And where in the world do they come up with some of the stuff they come up with???? The other day I told Austin " no" and he ran out of his room and pointed that finger at me and said...."Don't you say me no" I mean come on, I thought I had till 4 years old before the back talk came....guess not....And Avery, he is hilarious. We were looking at the photo album from when Austin was little, and I said " AWWWW look at him, mommy is sad because we done have any little babies around here anymore" (and here's where I went wrong) " Avery don't you think that we need to have a baby sister..." and without missing a beat he said (just as serious as could be) " There is no sense in a little sister...I mean we have two boys and that's enough there is no need for a little sister...." Where do they learn these things???? (I think Avery got that one from his daddy, what do you think). It's hard to stop and enjoy these little things in life with everything being so busy around our house. This week has got to be the worst...Monday I cooked dinner for six and Tuesday I have a mtg after work and then Avery's Christmas...I mean Holiday Program at school and then on Wednesday I have a Christmas dinner for work and then have a City Council mtg....Thursday I am actually off work, but have a chiropractor appt., Family Pictures, a catering event AND BRYANS BIRTHDAY, guess he's gonna feel left out huh. Friday is a journey around Perryville, to all of the churches and Saturday is Avery's school Holiday Bazar AND Matthew's birthday party...I can't even remeber whats going on Sunday, but I hope nothing, cause I prolly gonna need a nap. Pray for us to get through this week and stay sain....staying sain.....are you kidding me, in our crazy, wild, loud household with two, I mean three (if you count Bryan) kids running around playing all the time....isn't it great?

I still have to decorate my pot rack in my kitchen...other than that we are all Christmased out (is that a word????) Ok dont have much time have to get back to scheduling!!!!

More Pics

Okay, how in the world did I forget Halloween???? Here are some pics of halloween this year, along with some pics of Avery's surgery, Thanksgiving and others.

Austin's 2nd Birthday

Well Austin is now two....we've been in the terrible two's for a few weeks now, but for the most part it's only at bedtime. He is into pointing and talking back, whoohooo!!!!! He is sleeping in a "big boy bed" now and that has been a struggle. We had a great birthday party. We had lots of friends and lots of fun in the big "jumpy thing" bounce house.

And yes the picture above is a cake I MADE for Austin!!!!!!

Avery just had his tonsils and adenoids removed and boy was that fun...He's doing much better now and haven't had anymore PUCKING at our house, whooohooo!!!! (ok I know that gross, but think about me having clean it up all the time).

Nothing has been going on, other than just getting ready for the big holidays, not having a CLUE what Santa is going to bring the boys, how sad is that, we need NOTHING. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

Pictures

Yes that's Avery playing tug of war with a snapping turtle.

Our September vacation to Indian Shores, FL

How long has it been?????

Ok, I am having difficulties finding my cord that runs from my camara to my computer so it might be a few days for me to get some much needed new pics up!!!! I have now entered the wonderful world of facebook...I'm not sure why, I can't even keep up with this one, much less another page.
Let's see since March....Gosh where to start. The summer has flown by and now winter is almost here. We have a computer now so hopefully it will be much more convenient for me to update my blog.
This summer the boys switched over to Cental Kentucky Christian School and that has been really good for them. This fall we took another trip to Florida, to Indian Shores (down below Tampa), and then took a day and went to Orlando where we went to "Mickey's House." We had a great time and great weather....we just missed all of the hurricanes...We arrived just about 3 days after all of them hit. Since our September trip to Florida we have just been hanging out trying to keep up with all of the fall festivals. We have made it to the Forkland Festival and the Perryville Commemoration where the boys entered and won the Red Wagon decorating contest. I will try to get some pics up of that too.
Other than that the big election was this year and well I will have to say that I voted for myself. Our City Council term was up, there were six new council positions available where I stole first place by ONE BIG VOTE!!! We have a new slate this year with all new people.
As for other news in November....Avery had to get his tonsils and adenoids removed on Friday so we have been dealing with that all weekend/week. Today was my first day back to work and Avery's teacher said he just wasn't himself today....I guess that was my hint that he was a hand full! Hopefully we are on the mend now and pray for NO MORE SICKNESS AT OUR HOUSE. Okay I have taken up enough space for now, I will try to get those pics up in the next few days.
