I have been MIA!!!

Sorry we have just been living life since my last blog post. Let me tell you a little of what has gone on...

Brody turned ONE, he had an awesome Woodland Animal party, and on his actual birthday Chris and i took off work and took him to the zoo. He loved it, we have been to the Zoo a few times before with him but he really got into this time. He espically LOVED the Warthog, it was the first animal we saw and he was really close and palying in the mud and Brody just couldn't take his eyes off him! ( i forgot my camera that day : ( boo! ) Also for Brody's bithday Chris and I gave him a camo four wheeler and i bet you can guess who picked that out, Brody loves it he just hasn't got steering down so you have to chase him when he drives it the house so he doesn't take out Gigi!

Brody has had strep 3 TIMES in about a 2 month period, but praise the Lord it has finally gone away and i hope it stays away. The final time he had it was right after he went to his 12 month check up, he woke up the next day with a 102 fever, which i thought was from his shots. He continued to get worse through the day, so i took him back to the Dr. and his fever had gotten to 104, and his strep test came back positive! it was a rough week seeing our little fella so sick but he is back to his old self now!

We are buying a house, YES!, We have been working towards this goal since we got married 3 years ago and we finally found the right house to fit our needs and at the right price for our family. If all goes well we should be able to close October 28th, and plan to move in that weekend so we can save money by not having to pay rent for November, so that is going to be one CRAZY weekend, which also happens to be Halloween weekend, one of my fave times of the year, so we will defintly take a break from moving to take Brody to some Halloween happenings!

My hubby got a new job that he loves, he had been waiting for a while for it to come along and it did. He works so hard to provide for our family and i am so glad that he has a job that he enjoys!

So that is all for now, more updates soon including a 13 month update from Brody! And of course here are some pics of the star of my blog!

First Day of School 2020

 On Monday my babies started back to school. In these uncertain times we had different options on how we would begin school this year. We could do virtual public school, go back to the traditional classroom, or homeschool. At this point my husband and I decided that it would be best for our kiddos to be back in the traditional classroom. There isn't an easy choice about school in these crazy times. Our school is smaller, they are wearing masks, and taking social distancing precautions. We have prayed about our decision and feel we did what is best for our family. I am praying for the parents out there that are having to make choices about what to for school this year, please know I respect whatever choice you make and I know it's not easy.   How did my babies grow up so fast!?! Brody's first last day of elementary school. 4th grade Evie's first day of 2nd grade.  I hope you all have a wonderful week! Hope 

Just a Few Things I Am Thankful For

 Just a few things I am thankful for Polka dot rain boots and pretty leaves while running errands. Pretty fall flowers from my sweet hubby. A cute hat for days I don't want to fix my hair. Also a happy puppy waiting for her people to get out of school.  I hope your week is going wonderfully! Hope
