Oh My Goodness

It's been awhile since I have updated.To be honest things have been pretty busy around our house.The summer came and went for the kids.They went and stayed with family in Alabama for 2 weeks.That was heaven!!!!Then it was time for school to start.Morgan was all ready to go.Austin wasn't to sure about it.The 1st day of school was full of tears.I don't know who cried more Austin or me!!!!Chris made me go wait in the hall.Good thing he went with me because I would have stayed with my baby all day!!!!Not really......Austin is doing good now.He enjoys school and has made some friends.Morgan says she is a pro at going to school!!!Typical girl I guess.She didn't want me to walk her to her class the 1st day of school.She is growing up to fast for me.

My Babies are growing up too fast

Moma's babies are growing up to fast!!It just seems like yesterday that we brought them home from the hosiptal.Mo is in the 2nd grade now and has all kinds of little friends.She is coming into her own a little more each day.Before I know it she will be in middle school...I am learning to treasure all the time I have with her.Before long she won't want to be seen with Moma in town!!I love you Mo!!!!

Bub is growing up too fast too.He will be going to school in August.He says he is a man now because he can ride his bike without training wheels!!!!Oh to be 5 again!!!He wants to be just like Daddy now!!!He is Chris's shadow.Where-ever Chris goes Bub is right there with him.Its kinda cute to see them doing things together...I love you Bub!!!!

Its Begining to smell like Thanksgiving

I decided to get a head start on all my Thanksgiving baking this year.This is coming from someone who has worked 10 hours today.Then had to go to Walmart and fight the crowds to get my Thanksgiving dinner....What was I thinking?

So any way.I have decided to try my luck at a butternut cake this year.My grandmother usually always makes it.Well so far so good!!!!Everthing looks just like it does when granny does it....I will post pictures when I have it all done.

Hope everyone has a very Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Until next time.......

Cooler Weather

He's looking for Rollie Pollies!!!!
I love this picture!!!!!He's thinking about something!!!
Posing for the camera!!!
Morgan sitting on the mailbox drawing!!!
So the weather is cooler and we are enjoying it!!!!We can actually go outside now and not be ate up by bugs or be burned to a crisp from it being so hot!!!I think I am enjoying it a little more than the kids....They can run all that energy they have off.So when we go inside they want a bath ,dinner and then bed....I will never tell them my secret....LOL!!!

The cooler weather has gotten me wanting the holidays the get here!!!I know it just seems like yesterday we were getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas...Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.I get to usually go to Alabama and see my daddy and brother.My grandmother lives there now so I will be seeing her too.Not to mention all my Aunts,Uncles and Cousins!!!!Can't wait till November!!!!Gotta go for now.Kids and Hubby are ready to go to town!!!!

First Day back on track

Well I could have done better today.I didn't have to be at work till 9:30 this morning.Well you would think I would have exercised this morning.I didn't do it.I thought about just didn't act on it!!!!Gotta give me something for at least thinking about it right?Maybe I am not quiet ready yet.Who knows why I self sabotage myself?I will do this.I know I can do it.I lost over 30 pounds when I was focused on doing it.Why is it sooo hard to get back in the groove of things?

Ok time to get back on track!!!

Ok I have been thinking about getting back on my whole weight loss journey.I have been slacking since I started back to work.It's like I can't find the time to get my excercise in.I have to be at work so early that I just don't want to get up 30 m inutes early to get a workout in before work.Let's not even talk about my eating habits.They have went out the window a long time ago.I still find myself thinking ok you really don't need that or you don't need to go back for seconds.Somehow I tend to ignore that little voice and keep on eating.I have to start listening to that voice again.I have come too far now to quit.

I got a new Collage catalog in the mail today.Talk about perfect timing!!!!I am going to order myself some new Leslie Sansone and get back to walking away the pounds.I want to loose at least 10 pounds before November.We are going to Bama for Thanksgiving and I want to be looking good again!!!!So with my determination renewed I am going to start my journey again.I will keep you posted with progress.Please feel free to keep me accountable.

First Day Of School

ALL READY FOR SECOND GRADE!!
ME AND LITTLE MISS THANG!!!
GROWING UP TOO FAST!!!I can't believe she is in the second grade already.Seems like just yesterday I dropped her off at preschool.I left crying!!!!I still kinda get emotional every school year.I can't help myself.They grow up so fast.Cherish every moment you have with your babies.

UPDATE ON SCHOOL

Well we survived the 1st week of school last week.Sorry it has taken me so long to update.Things have been really crazy around our house!!!Ok back to school...We are still trying to get back in the swing of having to get up to go to school.The night before school started I liked to have never gotten her into to bed.Finally got her to bed aound 10:00pm.You know how it is when you tell them to go to bed.My foot hurts.My throat hurts!!!I'm thirsty!!!!She thought she was dying!!!!Believe me come 6:00am the next morning my little girl didn't want to get up.Got her up and dressed finally with just enough time to get her to school on time!!!
She rode the bus home from school .I thought I was at the right bus stop ,come to find out I was at the wrong end of our road....She had to walk home in the rain to the house.Thank god my neighbor saw her and got her out of the rain!!!!Poor Child!!!!!I was one more mad momma!!!I pretty much told her bus driver that I was not happy about what happened...Didn't get very far!!!!Now we know where we are supposed to be!!!!For now...Could change at anytime considering we live in Glynn County....That's another post all by itself!!!!


I still have not found anywhere that has an opening for Austin.I am just so frustrated right now.The lady that is over the pre -k program is so rude.I don't see how anyone working in the public can be so rude.I call the other day and she gets all lippy with me.I tell her fine give me the superintendent and I will tell him about your attitude.She tells me oh he is not in his office.I don't see how she could have known that because their offices are in differant buildings!!!She just didn't want me to talk to the superintendent!!!I will get him on the phone and you can believe this moma will give him a piece of her mind!!!!!

Back to school

So we are 2 days away from school starting back.I am so ready and I think Mo is too.We went to meet her teacher on Sunday.She seems to be nice.We shall see when school actually starts.I just hope she is has good has her 1st grade teacher was last year.Now I know I really don't need to compare this teacher with last years teacher,but I just can't help myself!!!!Did I mention she is also going to a new school.I think I am more nervous than Mo is!!!This moma is having a hard time of letting go....LOL.....I know she will do fine....

It looks like Austin will not start to school with Mo on Wednesday.Where I had him registered at didn't have enough kids to have a pre-k class.I find this out on Thursday afternoon.They didn't even call me to let me know.I hope I can get him in a pre-k class at one of our schools.Hopefully Mo's school.His name is on a list.I hope they call me and and tell me they have an opening.He was finally looking forward to going to school.I will keep this updated.Hoping and keeping my fingers crossed!!!!!

Past present,or future

You Live in the Present

You take things one day at a time. And it turns out, that's a pretty great way to live. You aren't consumed by the past, and you're aren't obsessed with the future. You live in the now, and you enjoy each moment. While most people don't live in the present enough, make sure you don't live in it too much. It would be a mistake to forget your past or neglect to plan for the future.

Do You Live in the Past, Present, or Future?

Margaritaville!!!!

Your Karaoke Theme Song is "Margaritaville"

You are a true party animal, but your style is mild and chill. Kicking back with a few friends and a few drinks is all you need to be happy. You certainly don't feel pressured to be a part of any party scene. In fact, you avoid trendier spots. You've been known to kick loose anywhere and everywhere. All you need is a cooler. You might also sing: "Gin and Juice," "Love Shack," and "Red Red Wine" Stay away from people who sing: "Wind Beneath My Wings"

Feeling Down

have just went back to work for the 1st time in 5 years.It has really been hard on the kids.Austin is acting out and Morgan is wanting to be with me more than usual.Like tonight Morgan wanted to know when I was going to bed so she could go with me.She wanted to sleep with me.When I asked why she wanted to sleep with me she tells me because I miss you.That just broke my heart to pieces.I did shed a few tears over what she said.I know that it is helping us all out by me going back to work.I just feel like I am neglecting my family by not being home all the time.I am so tired when I come home from work that I don't even want to cook them dinner.I just hope we can all adjust to me working again.I am doing this for them.I hope they know how much I love them and miss them when I am at work.

Things have been kinda crazy

Well I guess I have let this blog go dry.Things around here have been kinda crazy.Let's see where to I begin.Well we have made it though another school year.Morgan had the best teacher this year.I hope she gets a good one like that next year.She made learning so much fun for them that the kids didn't realize they were learning.She done really well on her CRCT Test.She is above average in reading and right on target with Math and Language Arts.On now to Austin!!!Austin is growing right before my eyes!!!He will go to school in August.He is all boy and then some!!!!When you ask him if he is going to school he tells you no!!!!I have to stay with mommy because she will miss while I am in school...How sweet is that.His favorite things right now are Super Heroes.I think we have watched SpiderMan at least 1000 times!!!What we will endure for our kids.....Now for Chris....He is still working for the glass company.We are counting down the days when he can go full time at the port where he works part time right now.We were hoping my now he would be full time.Its the government so they tend to take their time.I know the full time position will come right on time.Now I know you want to know what have I been up too.Well I have started working again after 4 years....I work for The Kraft Company.I am a merchandiser for them.Yes I am the one responsible for putting all those yummy chips ahoy and oreos on your shelves at the grocery store.I am still adjusting to working again.I just love having that little extra income coming in every week.It makes me feel like I am helping ease the load on Chris.So I guess that's it for now.I will try to keep this blog going.

Traveling Light

Rest from the burden of a small god. Why? Because I have found the Lord.

Rest from doing things my way. Why? Because the Lord is my Shepherd.

Rest from endless wants. Why? Because I shall not want.

Rest from weariness. Why? Because he makes me to lie down.

Rest from worry. Why? Because he leads me.

Rest from hopelessness. Why? Because he restores my soul.

Rest from guilt. Why? Because he leads me in the paths of righteousness.

Rest from arrogance. Why? Because of his name’s sake.

Rest from the valley of death. Why? Because he walks me through it.

Rest from the shadow of grief. Why? Because he guides me.

Rest from fear. Why? Because his presence comforts me.

Rest from loneliness. Why? Because he is with me.

Rest from shame. Why? Because he has prepared a place for me in the presence of my enemies.

Rest from my disappointments. Why? Because he anoints me.

Rest from envy. Why? Because my cup overflows.

Rest from doubt. Why? Because he follows me.

Rest from homesickness. Why? Because I will dwell in the house of my Lord forever

I think that if I could learn this I would be a better mom and wife.Sometimes I let the cares of life cloud my mind.If I would just stand back and let God handle it then I would have no reason to worry.I am trying alot harder not to get upset over situations that I can't control.God knows what's best.I just have to trust him to bring me though.I know he will never put more on us than we can bear.I just have to trust.Something that I am still learning to do.Believe me sometimes its hard to just put it in God's hands.I look back at how far I have come.There was times I didn't know where the gas money was going to come from.God always provided.I didn't know where the food was going to come from,but we have never been hungry.I didn't know where the rent money was going to come from,but I have always had a roof over my head.THANKS TO THE GOOD LORD.I have so much to be thankful for.I am still the clay and god is the potter.He is still molding me to what he wants me to be.
