Just for Katrina

at 01/08/10 1:16AM *

Yes, it has been quite awhile since I last updated and many things have been happening around here. The fall always seems to be busy, but for me, this year probably more so than any other, since I've had children. I have enjoyed so many days just being a mom. I have really enjoyed watching my baby boy in his mellow ways take in this new world around him, I have laughed (and cried) at the many antics my rambunctious, middle child seems to do on almost a daily basis, and I have truly enjoyed watching my daughter turn in to such a young and helpful little lady. I also took on a new part time teaching job in September. I have enjoyed being back in the classroom and teaching, but I especially like the set up this year where I can truly do both jobs I love, teaching in the classroom & being at home with my kids. :) From Thanksgiving through New Year, our family tends to be on the move and traveling quite a bit. This last trip we loaded up the van and maxed it out to capcity. Lots of fun insued! This first week of the new year I've been just trying to catch up on some much needed rest. lol... To finish out this week I will be celebrating my birthday. Yay! We'll actually be doing Christmas with Ryan's family since his parents were out of town the last couple of weeks. It'll be a fun family night. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

And just to add....

Have we thought any more about where we want to go on our girls trip?

by windham4life at 03/10/10 9:47AM
As tired as I am after having Katie and Ben for a mere 3 days, I miss them already!! It was sad coming home to a quiet lonely house. At least we have the dogs! haha... (and Jesse, of course) :D

A night of stitches and witches

at 08/21/09 1:03AM

Today was full of a lot of fun & craziness. Thanks to my sister for thinking of me when her friend couldn't make it to the play Wicked. I got to have a fun filled night out with her and her friends and really enjoyed the play.

Before I even had the chance to get ready, though, Ryan and I spent time in the urgent care with Ben getting stitches. :/ Poor boy tripped and fell right into the coffee table. This has been the first "major injury" any of our kids have had....so far. There's still time for more. ;)

After a busy and fun evening, I leave you with this....

Good night to all and sweet dreams!!

Chad fell into the fireplace about that age! Stitches too. I loved Wicked. Jim, Amanda and I went to San Antonio in June!

by anutty at 08/22/09 10:40PM
Poor little guy!

by curlie at 08/23/09 9:42PM
i really want to see wicked! and my stomach just turned reading about the stitches... im definitely not a nurse and im pretty sure i will pass out if i see blood anywhere near or on reese!!! aaaahhhh!!!

by ladidodd at 08/24/09 10:51AM
Hes the one whos going to cost you the most in urgent care just like me!! haha!

by padfoot at 08/24/09 9:47PM
I don't remember if this is the same website, but this will absolutely work...thank you so much!

by melissakaye at 08/25/09 12:32AM
when is your scavenger hunt going to be I want to go ahead and mark it on my calender

by carrie326 at 09/02/09 1:14PM
that's right carrie has a point!! I will help if you do one.

by pistal77 at 09/03/09 6:47PM
I want some spaghetti!!! Me so hungry for your yummy food!! Miss you guys! Hope ya'll are doing good! :)

by tylerhairston at 09/16/09 5:23PM
That scavenger hunt thing sounds fun!!! I am debating on whether or not to do another halloween party out at Gran's this year. We had a blast last year so I think another party would be fun! It also kind of depends on the football schedules and everyone's availablity.

by tylerhairston at 09/21/09 1:46PM
Oh no! I'm not looking forward to scary accidents! Hope yall are doing well. See you this weekend!

by bekahv at 09/24/09 1:10PM
Hey Dianna! Long time no see! Me miss you longtime!!! I actually don't think I am going to be able to make it down this next weekend. :( I came into town this weekend because I needed to get a new cell phone (my old one broke) and to take care of some other work related stuff. I probably wont be back in town until Thanksgiving :( But, I greatly appreciate the invite and if something changes between now and then I will definitley give you a call. Hope you guys are doing good! Tell everyone I said "Hello" and give the kiddos a hug for me!

by tylerhairston at 10/24/09 3:45PM
poor dude!!

A new update :)

at 07/24/09 2:07AM

Obviously, I have not been good about keeping up with my pleo blog these days. Adding a baby to our mix as well as having an active 2 year old boy running around here has kept me more on my toes and less on the net. That's not a bad thing, though! :) Late nights are common here. Once we get the two older kids to bed and enjoy having some mommy & daddy down time, I try to pick up what I can from the day and then feed baby around 1 or 1:30am. I know eventually Carter we'll sleep longer between feedings and not need this feeding, but for now this is working for us. Atleast I get some things picked up before bed! :) So....before I head off to sleep, here is an updated picture of our kiddos. It was taken about a week and a half ago so as you can imagine Carter only keeps changing and growing! Hope all is well with everyone out there! All of you have a great summer!

Your kids are so special! Of course they would have to be with such special parents :)

by misslynn at 07/24/09 9:01AM
Beautiful! I can't believe how big they all are! We used to do the 1/1:30 feeding with Nate too; why go to sleep at midnight if they're going to get up an hour later? Makes sense to me!

by curlie at 07/24/09 9:28AM
Adorable kids! :)

by melissakaye at 07/24/09 10:46AM
They are so sweet!

by blueeyes at 07/24/09 2:00PM
Great pic of your three little blessings!

by muldoon202 at 07/24/09 4:22PM
sweet kids

by pistal77 at 07/24/09 8:58PM
I certainly understand how busy life is, but seeing that pic, it is all worth it! (Most of the time! ha!)

by anutty at 07/24/09 10:15PM
I want to come see them tomorrow!

by iamchriswindham at 07/24/09 10:29PM
That is an adorable picture!!! I can't wait to come see them :)

by windham4life at 07/24/09 11:55PM
haha...you're on too? :) I just updated, but going to bed soon, I think. :P I was so tired today that I took 2 long naps, so that makes it a little harder to go to bed now!

by windham4life at 07/25/09 1:00AM
What a great picture! B is looking older ;) I am so glad that I have gotten to see you so much lately.

by ewalker at 07/25/09 1:18PM
They are so cute!! Jacob was giving Katie kisses this morning! :)

by kendralulu at 07/26/09 2:00PM

by muldoon202 at 06/19/09 10:44PM
We'll have to come see Carter again (so I can see if he looks like me). LOL I heard that everyone thinks he looks more like our side of the family than Ryan's.

by windham4life at 06/22/09 8:16AM
little Carter is a sweet little guy.

by pistal77 at 06/23/09 9:42AM
Are you planning on being at Cedar Park's youth lecture tonight?
