    Stoney J is 29 years old!!!  Have a wonderful Birthday and I look forward to spending time with you this weekend.

    Thank you for all the sacrifices you make for this family.  I love you and I know the boys think you are the coolest person ever.  You are my best friend and I am grateful to have you as my wonderful husband.

    Love Always and Forever, Me

    My baby turned one on October 14!!!  WE had some great time with family and friends.  Jakcosn is very blessed to have recieved such wonderful gifts.  (Ethan is enjoying them, too).  Jackson has been a wonderful baby, or maybe I know what I am doing the second time around.  From the pregnancy, to giving birth, sleeping, eating, he is a piece of cake.  Jackson is definately a momma’s boy, and I love it.  He likes to be held and snuggle all the time.  At his one year check up he weighed in at a whopping 17.9 pounds, he is in the 1 percentile.  He is such a little guy, it is hard for me to believe he is one.  He hasn’t quite accomplished the walking yet, but he is working at it. I think he can do it, but crawling is faster and he can keep up with his brother.  Baby J we love you and hope you had a wonderful First Birthday.

    Cornbelly’s

    Cornbelly’s (the corn maze at Thanksgiving Point), opened last weekend and K-Bull 93 had a deal where you could get in for .93 cents!!  It was great fun.  We thought it would be packed but it wasn’t bad at all.  They had hay rides,  kiddie corn mazes, a big pillow ballon thing to jump on (by far Ethan’s favorite),  and lots of other fun Halloween activities.

    I have the first week of work done!!  I am happy to report all went smoothly.

    I really enjoy the team I am working with.  And I feel in a job like this it is essential that you get along, can comfortably debrief all situations and most importantly laugh.  I wasn’t overhwlemed  with anything at work, just overwhelmed with going back.

    Stoney was wonderful this week.  He was a huge help in keeping the house in order.  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Stoney!!  It was great to hear all the stories of the boys he had to tell, because it is generally the other way around.  I do know he was worn out form working so late and the kids being up early.  That is something we are working on.

    The boys have done well with the adjustment.  I think Ethan’s behavior is wonderful.  It is great to come home and the boys run up to me, give me the biggest hug, and say they miss me.  I swear they do something new and are growing daily.
