zoo

We decided to go to the zoo today for T's Birthday(which is tomorrow).  He loves going to the zoo so we though that it would be fun.

The whole family went, so it make it even more special.

I decided to get him a zoo key.  He loved listening about the different animals.

Walking around this moring was a nice morning.  We had a great time.  It is special to do something with the boys as a family for their birthdays. 

Tomorrow - The party

Visiting Faith

I went to the hospital today to visit Faith.  While I was gone my sister decided that she was going to watch my two boys and her daughter.  I know that is a crazy time to have all of the kids.  I also know that it is fun to watch them all play together. 

I love the fact that my boys love their cousin so much.  Knowing that they want to be around her, and play with her so well is a great feeling.  I try to make sure that they get together and can spend time together.

I feel lucky.  My family is so big.  My grandfather has 25 grand and great grand children.  I feel blessed because of the five boy, I have two of them.

Crazy Kids

Going to the lake is wonderful - accept for the fact that the boys get crazy.  Not only do they not sleep.  They also have the problem of listening.  They know that other people will override mom.

T has been crazy and is just not listening.  He loves having the one on one attention, but there are times that he has to learn.  We are planning on taking them to the zoo today and I am just hoping that they will be good at the zoo.  I know that this is not going to be easy, but something needs to be done!

Relaxing At The Lake

I love being up at the lake.  It is so nice for me because I have time to relax.  It is wonderful for the children because they have new toys to play with, and they have so much fun playing with the different toys.

Today they were runing around the house giggling and chasing each other.  What a wonderful sound, hearing my children running and giggling around the house.

I am looking forward to tomorrow.  We are going to go to the Zoo.  Both boys love the zoo, and being there will be a blast for them.  This is a zoo that we all are going to visit for the first time so it will be a great time to explore.

Quiet Night To Myself

Last night was a quiet night.  I had the house to myself, N was asleep.  It was a great feeling.  I love being productive.
N must be going through a growth spirt because he was tired and wanted to sleep most of the day.
T was at Nana's house.  He was so excited to be able to go spend the night with Nana.
Brian went to his grandmother's house to help start clean out the garage.  This left me to have some quiet time to myself.

Having quiet time to myself, has me think.  So I decided out of the blue to dye my hair again.  This time Burgandy.  I needed to do something for myself.  Dying my hair is a stress relief for me.  It makes mee feel good, and fun to have different colored hair, that is why I do it.

Halloween

I have decided that I need to get back to bloging - at least for myself again.  So here I go.  My goal is to do one blog entry every day of November!

Yesterday was Halloween.  This was the first Halloween that T got into the idea of trick or treating.  It was so wonderful to watch him run up to the different homes and say trick or treat.
I love the fact that he said thank you at every house.

Here are my two wonderful boys that love going trick or treating!!!!!

Happy Halloween 2008
