Party on

today was party day. After I taught my Sunday school class I dashed home to do the "flight of the bumblebee" as my dad would say. I am running around the house trying to get it ready for Ty's birthday party here and not to mention it is my husbands 37th birthday today. So extra stress!!! I have hopefully everything ready and the boys get home. Thank goodness for grandparents that are willing to keep them overnight so I can do some cleaning I would not be able to do if the boys was here. You moms know what I mean...I pick up one spot just to have toys dumped out in that exact place...ok so done and done. Now party time!! It goes off great! I mean wow no injuries (that was told) and everyone had plenty of food and cake. Hey when stressed eat cake!! And I did.  I had one of those flashback moments with Ty when I was pushing him in the same swing that I would push Kobe in, oh the sweet memories that came rushing back. And now I get to make new ones with Ty. The best moment was sitting with Ty playing after everyone had left. Just the two of us building Lego houses and Ty knocking them down saying sorry mommy with the sweetest smile. Yep doesn't get any better than this. Now I am so tired I believe I will just hit the pillow and be OUT! Sweet dreams are ahead.

Birthday and urgent care

To say I am blessed is an understatement. I have 2 beautiful boys and a wonderful husband and Friday was our baby's 3rd birthday. When we had our oldest time, well, it went medium speed. But now it goes warp speed. Wow 3 years! Ty woke up not feeling so great, so a quick run to the urgent care and with ear infections and meds we go eat. Well three restaurants later we are finally eating. Ty still not feeling good so this makes for a long evening but I'm just so thankful I got to spend it with my family and our dear friends and their 3 girls. I am a truely blessed mommy!

It takes a village

Ok I did say I may have another blog and well here it goes. We did find the safer end tables, yay! But that shopping experience left us in blood and a very glad to get done feeling. We did see wonderful old friends and that was great. Next was lunch and Ty fell asleep at the table...why could he not fall asleep while furniture shopping? Then off to the game. I realized it takes a village to raise children. I'll watch yours and mine and take turns. It is such a blessing to know you can trust these friends. If I said "ok let's share" one time I said it 10, there was chasing and laughing by kids and adults. I want to stop right here and say how proud of our son Kobe I am. He showed great sportsmanship last night and it made my heart swell with pride. Maybe I am treaching him something right. Well let's get ready for church. Mommy on!
