Not only are Tim and I blessed with 2 sons of our own, but we’re also honored and blessed to have 3 Godsons. Our first Godson is Andrew Gibson, our second is Ethan Clark and now our nephew Daniel Jacob Hosek. Because Daniel was born so premature he was baptized with water in the hospital…
Thanksgiving Highlights
Well it surely felt like Thanksgiving this year with the cool front that came through! Even in Austin it was quite brisk enough for me. And then the rain started yesterday too. Geez, I am all for the weather being seasonal but did it have to get THAT seasonal?? Despite the fact that it cooled…
Blogging about Blogging
So these days “blogging” isn’t only about my own blog entries, it’s also about reading other blogs, mostly of moms like me. And let me tell you – there are A LOT out there to read! I could be up all night – or day for that matter – reading them. I have one blog…
Half Birthday
Today is Gavin’s “Half Birthday” also known as he’s 6 months old! So at six months he has his 2 bottom teeth, can sit up really well by himself and can scoot around the room. He also seems to have started the separation anxiety thing a little when I walk out of a room and…
Heartfelt Ramblings
I know I usually post things about the boys and just random life happenings, but today I feel a little more nostalgic and well…just plain lucky. We were at our friend’s the Clark’s this evening for the celebration of our Godson Ethan’s birthday with their family. Unfortunately I didn’t get to participate in the cake…
Startin’ ‘Em Early
Last night Tim cleaned out a ton of computer “junk” so that he could recycle a lot of it through the city of Arlington today. He had an old keyboard that he was no longer using and I snagged it out of the box and we gave it to Gavin to play with. This child…
8th Anni-BUR-sary!
Today is mine and Tim’s 8th wedding anniversary and it’s hard to believe that much time has already gone by. I often have memories of our dating days even now. It was a four year run though, so that’s probably why! ; ) That makes 12 years together! The reason I called it our Anni-Bur-sary…
Boys in Trailer
Have I said on here how much I like craigslist? If you haven’t been there yet you should go and buy something! It’s kind of like an on-line garage sale and I have bought two things on there recently including a Sit N Stand stroller so that I can cart Gavin and Ben around together,…
It’s Finally Halloween
It seems like it took forever for the actual Halloween day to get here after all the pre-holiday festivities! Ben also had a party at school yesterday where the kids paraded around in their costumes and got treats from the church staff and from their classmates. But it’s finally REALLY the big night and once…
Playgroup Halloween
We had a great party at Tracy and Trinity’s house for our playgroup on Monday. It was a little chaotic since us mother’s were trying to do a craft while amidst 13 kids and babies, but all in all it was fun and the kids were really cute in their costumes. Gavin passed out asleep…
