Monday....Monday

Well here we are again. I REALLY didn't want to come back, but.............. Addy started back daycare today. I tried to tell her last night, but I don't think she really cared, although she did tell A'ry nite-nite. Mark and I had a wonderful weekend just the three of us spending some much needed time together. We didn't do anything special and really didn't do anything at all, just hung out at the house playing Wii and laughing. Mark found it hysterically funny that I hula hoop on the Wii fit. It is pretty funny to put it nicely. LOL!! I went to take a shower and while I was in there he hula hooped, but he won't let me watch him. Tomorrow starts close so another couple of days of working really late. Addy will have her first experience with a babysitter tomorrow night. That makes me a little nervous that Hannah may never want to come back. I don't worry at all about Addy she will be fine with it because different people at church watch her every Sunday.

O yeah. We did take his dad out for a Father's day dinner because we were on vacation on Father's day. His dad wanted to go to the Olive Garden. It was very nice and Mark enjoyed it too.

FRIDAY

Thank goodness it is Friday. I am so ready too.

After much thought and consideration Addison will be going back to LBBCC on Monday. She misses her very good friend A'ry and she won't sleep at my sisters. I think maybe for her it will be the best thing. I hate moving her around so much and it got really confusing this morning. Mark ended up not getting home until I was leaving for work so he was ready to go to sleep. I called Mom who was still in bed and had to see if she would keep her so I could come to work. If she goes back to daycare I could just take her on to daycare when he doesn't get off until late. Double load on me, but there's nothing I can do about that right now, then maybe I won't have to hire a babysitter for close. Anyway, next weekend Mom is going to keep Addy on Friday so that Mark and I can have a night (if he is off of work). We are hoping to go out for some ADULT time. This has become even more important to me because right now we have a telephone relationship since he is working 2nd. I am in bed when he comes home and he is in bed when I leave and then at work when I come home. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Take time to stop and smell the flowers..

Beach Slideshow

Return from the beach

We returned home Saturday after being away at the beach for a week. It was a lot of fun--Thanks to my mother who was able to get us all together to spend some time with each other there. There are WAY too many pictures to post all of them, but I will work on a slide show for at least several of them.

I was reading a friends post about her son and his "terrible twos". WOW. Addy has entered this stage too and it is driving me nuts. She is gaining so much of her independence, but still has NO clue what to do with it. She gets more and more of her mom's attitude and temper everyday. She has picked up rolling in the floor when she gets mad as her new thing. I can't tell you how much I love that. Everyone is staring at her and me and watching for my reaction. Every reaction is different I must say. It really depends on how many times she has decided to do this in a given moment. I know we are going to work through this, but I sure hope it is sooner rather than later.

Wize'n Up

We have the church Wize'n Up this week. I am excited to be a coach and have a little team. It is so funny how you change your outlook on things. I can't wait to see all of the kids have a great time and want to come back for more. My nephew Sam is going to be on my team--YEAH!!! I hope he still likes me afterwards. LOL. I can't wait to get started tonight and see all of the kids have a good time.

Pray that these kids will learn all they can during this week about Jesus and they will want to come back every week to learn more at SCC.

Also pray that they can invite friends and family in hopes to lead them to a better walk and life with Jesus Christ.
