It's been a while...

I know I have not posted in a while but things have been crazy around here over the past few weeks. So here is a brief update, and a few cute pics of the boys because we all know posts are better with pics, of what we've been up to this month.









  • First off, we've been spending almost every weekend out at the ranch since it is dove hunting season. It is so peaceful out there and we take daily walks, fish in the pond, the boys ride their power wheels and of course Brady does some hunting.



  • I have also been volunteering at AJ's school for some projects that are going on....which I LOVE!



  • We actually stayed in town this past weekend beacuse Monday was our 6 year anniversary and we had a lovely, child free evening together!



  • Since we were home this weekend we had a playdate with some friends of ours, which was both fun and crazy all at the same time. Turns out 4 boys running up and down the stairs is NOT such a great idea, as Noah took a header down them and busted his head on the wood floors. My poor baby, he was okay but it has been a week now and his forehead is still swollen from it. It actually scared me quite a bit because they always tell you that as long as the bump comes out they are okay. Well, his head had more of a flat spot with a slight indention in the middle. I was able to hold it together and just monitor him and not freak out. For those of you who don't already know, last year AJ thought he'd pretend to be Superman and jump off the stairs which resulted in him hitting the couch, falling backwards and busting his head on the wooden end caps of our stairs. He then stopped breathing, turned blue, scared the shit out of me, started having convulsions, and his body curled up, scared the shit out of me, I called 911...the whole bit. And did I mention that he SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME?!?! He ended up being fine but I'm sure you can see how Noah's fall brought flash-backs of complete horror!!! Anyhow....



  • The boys are still going strong in dance class and seem to really enjoy it.



  • AJ LOVES school, I just hope he continues to feel this way for a long time.



  • His school had a fun ice cream social this week that the whole family got to come to. Noah was so stoked that he was finally able to play on the playground too.



  • And last but not least, I had a dr. appt. which has left me nervously awaiting test results to see if I have an infection somewhere or if my kidneys are messed up. Pray with me that it's just an infection and a round of antibiotics will take care of it.



  • Oh yeah, and we are heading back to the ranch tomorrow.



So, like I said, we have been busy.




I will say this, I absolutely love that the weather is finally becoming more bearable!! WELCOME FALL! I mean I love Texas but the heat, it's rough!




I hope that you all are having a wonderful beginning to fall too and as promised, some cute pics...
