Pre-K here I come...
Caleb was so excited for his first day of school. I must say I did pretty good, I wasn't a teary mommy, they were just shooing me away while I was trying to get yet one more picture. Of course Caleb and his sparkling personality was like MOMMY WHO? No, I would much rather him be social and ready to go then hooked to my leg crying not wanting me to leave him. I dont think I could handle that. Teaching first grade I have seen many K children really boo hooing and it is heart breaking for the kids as well as the parents. I am really proud of him. I look at these pictures and although I see him every day and I have been here for the last 4 1/2 years every day I almost do not recognize this growing energetic little guy that now uses complete sentences, such as, What did you say? I used to get "Hold you" while reaching his little arms up wanting me to pick him up. I remember the day he said "Hold me" and it BROKE my heart for I knew my baby was growing...that he is, every day no matter how hard I try to image he's not. I am so proud of him and I know this is just the beginning of the great things he is going to do in his life and in ours. Mommy loves you Bubba!!
Daisy May
Caleb has been wanting photos of him with our pets to sent to sprout and Gideon wasn't around when I had the camera out. I guess Daisy gets all the spot light. She was probably too lazy to run away. No really she has been sick and are having surgery done on her soon for bladder stones, so hopefully she will be more active soon. I know it hurts her feelings when people says she is fat. To let everyone know she is on a very strict diet from the vet. We love her the way she is. Isabella even gives her kisses. Caleb and I know better!!!
7 months...where did the time go
Yes!! My baby girl is 7 months old. I know, lets all take a minute, it makes my heart physically hurt to think about how fast she is growing and here again I look back and wonder where the time has gone. I absolutly cherished my summer. I think it was mainly because for the first time in a long time I was home with my family, my entire family. The other summers something was always going on, pregnant, Joe in Iraq, Joe in Iraq again, building the house pregnant, and now finally, husband home, house to call home, all babies here, and I purposely slowed down on photography. Still shooting some jobs but I am putting the hubby and babies first right now.
Anyway back to the topic, I really hated going back to work, not that I hate my job, I love teaching and my students, I just really love being a mommy and being home with my babies. But as always all good things must come to an end, I am now inspiring young minds once again and it has been hard and stressful. Caleb has started Pre-K so 5:30a.m. comes early for both of us...I let him sleep a little longer than me. Put he does not like getting up. He does however love school, and I think it is really going to be good for him.
Well my little girl is doing well at the moment with her tummy problems, now that we are on 2 different RX and special formula that cost like a million dollars, but her little tummy is worth every penny. She had not gained as much weight as the DR at Children's had hoped but she has hit the big 16lbs. 16.1 to be exact. It is so weird cause here Sissy is 16pounds at 7 months and Caleb was 20pounds at 4 months big difference between the two. She is so close to crawling lets just say she is. she gets where she wants sometimes on her belly, sometimes on her knee, and sometimes on her toes. I am beginning to think crawling might hurt her knees so she gets up on those toes and tries to walk on hands and toes. It is kinda funny looking, but I would never make fun of my daughter lol. She is so sweet and happy when she feels well and she absolutly LOVES and admires her big brother. She will go into a giggle fit kicking those feet and throwing those arms just by Caleb walking in the room. She thinks he is the best thing since peanut butter.
Caleb said the sweetest thing to mom tonight, he had went to her house to play and he said he wanted to take his bath at her house. She was like ok, but then he said that he wanted to take his bath at her house "so Mommy wont have to fool with giving me a bath and she can just sit and love on me" Does that not just make your heart melt. So that is what I did tonight, sit and love on him. We played cars and watched Sprout. Can't beat that for an exciting Friday night. It really meant a lot because my 4 year old isn't as lovey huggy as he once was, and I miss that. I guess I can still hold on alittle longer. I am so thankful. I am really blessed to have such a wonderful complete family. Here are a few pictures from the last few days, just hanging at the house!!
