News

There are some news in our life.

Tyson switched to selling houses, not a realtor, but selling at model homes and selling custom homes.

I am keeping sweet Julianne some each week, which is really my secret way of getting to hang out with Beth.

Beth and Brett bought their dream home. (ok, so this isn't our news, but the woman hasn't blogged in over six months, and someone needs to share because it is awesome!!!)

Tyson can begin lifting and stretching exercises after his collarbone surgery, but has a right wrist tendon injury they didn't pick up on till now, so it will be a few weeks in a brace again for that hand.

Makenna has asked me to do her hair every day until today for school. fall over.

Tracen has been a sweet friend to a new little guy in his class with one leg and webbed fingers. so proud.

I've been informed that when you are ten you can do everything by yourself and be a babysitter and stay home alone and that doesn't mean make lunches or feed dogs.

Mailey sleeps in a big girl bed successfully on most nights. Some mornings I find her by my head on my pillow instead.

Mailey has been sucker(pacifier)-free for over a week! One night I could not find them, and told her I would look for them. I finally found 3 and just chunked them! She asked for them at nap and the next night, but not again until yesterday. She told me they were lost and I needed to look for them. I am so glad for that stage to be gone, but I do miss that sweet little sound and watching her sleep holding onto 2 and sucking on one. Bye-bye baby.

Scott moved home and left us in the flatlands so he could get a job. What? No jobs here?? We had NO idea!!! blah.

I hate packing lunches. Oh, wait. That is not new at all.

Our niece, Paige, is a Freshman at Tech, and we are so glad!

Aussie lost all of her outer coat of hair due to stress of puppies leaving. She looks like a skinny weird dog and we are sad. Vet is hoping it grows back for winter, but winter sounds like a cruel joke about now with the 100s never-ending, so it probably feels good with lots less hair.

I am running, still looking the same, and wondering if it is at all worth it.

Mailey is starting PDO on Thursdays, and I sewed her a napmat with Beth B using leftover fabric from her party cause I'm cheap like that.

Mailey gets into hand soap wherever I hide it and soaks her hands with it and runs like the wind. Her new thing is to say,"I got nufin' in my hands! Nufin'!!!"

Mailey will grab your face and get really close and whisper,"I love you, yes am? Say yes am. Yes am I love you." All whispers. :)

My blog has put all the sidebar on the bottom. It is new, it was not done by me, and it is making me nuts.

That is all our new news.
