It was a crazy fast week for us. Work was nutty. School work continued on. Karate kept us moving. And this weekend, daddy is running the Rock n Roll Half Marathon. What would life be without controlled chaos. We did manage to get the pool several times this week….cold water doesn’t stop the boy. With …
So Tuesday was a busy day for us, but I made time to go to the Back to School night. The little guy was so excited for me. He kept telling me that there was a big surprise..and in a serious tone said “mommy, act surprised” Well that big surprise was a big life side …
Last week, the little guy had his next belt test. We are proud to announce that we have a blue belt in the family! And the boy is rocking that swag. He has come so far from where we began. This was the boy who shyly looked on and refused to go up in front …
Our Labor Day was action packed. My parents and uncles arrived on Thursday night. On Saturday, we took off early for Texas to watch the SC/Bama game. So much fun…result of game, not so much. It was really cool to see the Trojan family out representing, even in an embarrassing lose. As for Jerry World..it …
I’m not going to lie, we almost blew off Wednesday karate. Good thing we didn’t because we did our belt test 2 days early. Pretty funny to watch the kids running around before class and then putting on their game face when it was announce. And the little guy was one of two kids that …
This is week also saw the return of school. There is a big first grader in the house! We couldn’t be more proud of him. He reads, spells and counts way before we were doing that stuff. Crazy the capacity of their brain at that age. Today, he has to get up in front of …
Last weekend, Mommy and a few of her friends went to the Jimmy Buffet concert. We had so much fun. His music always puts me in a tropical mood. Here’s to wasting away in Margaritaville!
Today, the relatives arrive from Ohio. One special uncle is celebrating his birthday. Uncle Larry turns 75 and we couldn’t be more pleased. His story is special. Contracted polio as a boy, convined to wheel chair, not expected to live past 20. He dug down deep and conquerd the odds. Mommy is so lucky to …
We made a last minute decision to head back to the beach yesterday…or as they say in the east, we went to the shore. This week is the little guy’s last week before school starts. I remember those days as a child. And I remember being none o happy. Weirdly, I feel the same watching …
I love how imaginative the boy has become. His summer has been filled with awesome adventures with his babysitter. And it mostly revolves around, cops/robbers and Star Wars. He really has a knack for directing and screen play. And he doesn’t miss the little details. “Meg, I said you go left. I go right”. It …
