I’ve been wanting to blog for at least a week now, but haven’t quite been able to find the right mood. The last month around here has been rather hectic. After a couple years of working 4 10-hour days, Jason got notice his schedule would be going back to 5 8-hour days. His assigned shift was 6:30-3:00 which was nice for… Read more →

So last month I wrote in my blog that I pretty much lost the entire month of September. This in fact was a small white lie. In fact in September I was working on a very little BIG project. This project involved lots of naps, early bedtimes, and some very queasy mornings…nights… afternoons. Can you guess what it was? At 13 weeks,… Read more →

Our yard has a few brown patches but we are watering it the best we can. Thank goodness for automatic sprinklers. This past weekend we had enough humidity to get some evening showers,… Read more →

I attempted to start this post 3 weeks ago. It was Mother’s Day weekend. It was generally a good weekend. Jason went hiking on Saturday and a friend watched the little man so I could get a haircut. I bought myself some Mother’s Day flowers, and had a wonderfully productive weekend, but I was coming down with another cold.  Unbeknownst to me… Read more →

We finished out our time in WI and had a great time celebrating Will’s first birthday with family and friends. Also family pictures went well, and turned out quite well also. Love my little man! We’ve had quite the high time since returning from WI. William travelled quite well aside from fainting on the plane ride back (it was a… Read more →
