Welcome Back!

From the dead that is....
I didn't forget this blog was here, but darned if I couldn't remember my password and then I got this bright idea to start another one with my dresses, and this one just showed up! HOORAY!!!!

My kids are growing up and looking at these pictures when Grace was so innocent... those were the days! She is such a handful, we have completely written her off, and she's 3! Just the other day she was sitting at our table and mocking her daddy for kicks. She didn't like the kick back though. What is happening with 3 year olds these days, my other kids wouldn't dare do such a thing. Even at 5 &8! Grace has the best personality! She is tougher, stronger, and cuddlier than most children I know. She refuses to potty train, b/c that would mean she is not a baby, which she thinks she always will be. She refuses to sleep anywhere but between Aaron and I and she pretty much has the other kids at her beck and call all the time. What is wrong with this picture? We are terrible parents!

Gab will be starting 4th grade, oh my, I remember 4th grade. I had to memorize those stupid multiplication tables (which are now haunting Gabby), and I got my first "C". Not a good thing. Luckily Gab has already faced that. :-) She just completed Alice in Wonderland with Crittenden Arts Council. She loves to be in plays. She is a ham for a camera and is about as sweet as a child can be. Just like her mamma. Sweet that is. Anyway, she is model tall & thin, has the cutest glasses and needs them worse than her own two feet.

Coen will be graduating from 4-year preschool (good thing b/c he is 5!) and will be showing up at kindergarten next year to completely rock his teacher's world! They haven't seen a child with OCD like him in a while! He is such a cool kid, always on the straight and narrow, and cuter than cute. Why just this morning he was asking me what a tampon was, and exactly how it worked. He will be worried about this for days I tell you! He did not get an answer from me. I told him that it was girl stuff, stick to t-ball. Which he is playing, along with soccer. He is VERY focused unlike Miss Gabby, and will probably do very well in sports, once he gets a little faster.

Aaron is still with FedEx, doing FedEx things, and keeping FedEx going. He and I just finished Esperanza with our good friends the McGhee's, the Adam's, and the Martin's. We are all glad it is over. I'm thinking next year I will come on Friday night only. No dragging the kids out again.
We are both on a health kick, exercising, dieting (or at least I am), and trying to get our hot beach bods back after 3 kids and 10 years! LOL!! I'll post some before and after shots soon! I started with Traci Evans, a personal trainer (who has also worked with HOT Emily McGhee) at the end of February and have done great. He has pulled Aaron in to work out with him in the mornings to get Aaron in shape for his wife. ha ha!

Keep coming back for more pics & blog, I'll see ya soon!
