It has been a long time since I have done a blog post, and while I am sure my haters think I have been silenced by their comments or complaints to family about me, I have to say...Sorry not the case.
What has caused my absence is a broken computer. I picked up a virus and sadly almost lost my hard drive. We do have other computers I can use, they aren't mine and time on them is very limited. I just decided to focus on other things but always kept ideas for new blog posts fresh in my mind, and hope to get some of them up soon. Today's post and maybe the next few will have to be without pictures due to not having my computer back to 100% just yet, but when it is fixed I will have many to post.
So, here is what is new in a nutshell:
Travis: He bought a new computer with his own money and we helped with a bit for his birthday. He hasn't been up to too much and hasn't had many chances to practice driving but we hope to remedy that soon. He is getting ready for his Sophomore year of high school and while he doesn't want summer to end just yet he really does enjoy Robotics and his engineering classes.
Kaden: He hasn't been up to a whole lot, just being Kaden. Always busy, always using his imagination and creativity to keep life fun and interesting. He will be starting the 4th grade and is anxiously awaiting to see who his teacher will be. We are wishing real hard that it is his teacher from 2nd grade, he really liked her and she went to 4th &5th grade last year. We will have to see what the school does with staffing this year.
Tessa: She has been busy being a typical toddler which is a huge blessing and a huge pain in my butt. While we are so very happy and realize the blessing it is that she is right on par with her peers, we also forgot what it was like to have a VERY active toddler around too. Tessa has started climbing, and she climbs everything, baby gates, the heat register to see outside, the oven door ( which opens it). She is a huge stinker. She has also learned the art of running if she knows you are going to stop her or if she is off to be naughty somewhere. She had an injury in her mouth last week and almost lost her front tooth. She bit the control thing for her bouncy chair and got her tooth stuck and when she ripped it out it loosened the tooth and tore her gums. Quick trip to ER, meds so she doesn't get an infection and we are all better now.
Me: I haven't been up to much just keeping things running and staying sane. Last week my brother and his family came up from Texas for a visit and while it was short, I was happy to have see them. Never got a chance to visit one on one with them, but they were being tore in every direction by people wanting to see them, I was happy to go to them and get what time they could spare. While up here they went to tour a college my niece is planning on attending next year, and my brother was able to get in a bit of fishing, since that really was what the trip was planned for in the 1st place. But I have to admit it was sad to see them go, but I know I always have the option to go see them too.
So there it is, not too exciting, but it is what it is.
Now off to get another blog post out containing some of the things I have been mulling over in my mind while rocking Tessa, and all the loveliness of life, family, and all the goes with it.
