UnderPaid???

Aaron and I had a discussion the other day based around professions we feel are under paid...

Service Men/Women

Teachers

Childcare Staff

Pastors

Police/Fire/Ambulance Personnel

I am sure there are more....who would you add to the list?

And The Answer Is.....

Cheese Puffs!

He dumped a big bag and enjoyed way too many of them!

(In case you are curious his poo was orange the next day)

First Day of Pre-School

New year, new school and I believe we have found a great place! Audrey will still be receiving schooling at home but she needed the interaction with other kids (in case you don't know Audrey she thrives on being around others!). I also feel it is important for Braylon to receive the one on one time with Mommy!

When picking Audrey up she explained, "some kids stay for daycare.

" I agreed with her and went on driving, then with a disappointed tone, "I want to stay for daycare." I explained to Audrey that we didn't have a need for daycare so she would not be attending. Her response in the most grown up voice, "Well, maybe next time I can stay." She must really like the school and her new friends if she is wanting to stay :)

Audrey is special helper this week!

At a later date......Braylon, Braylon, Braaaaaylon, What are you into???

Any guesses?

**Inspired**

My dear friend Kimberly and my wonderful sister Carla have inspired me!

They are both taking on challenges and are in action or getting ready for action.

After getting off the phone with Kimberly yesterday I started

thinking about the few things that I love to do and don't make time for or have always wanted to do and made excuses. I have come up with a list of four initiatives. I believe I can work on all four at once because two I should do everyday but have recently became lax on each.

1. Read my Bible/ Devotional book

2. Exercise- walk, run, lift weights

No laughing at the next two...

1. Take a photography class

2. Dance lessons

I have been playing around with my camera and ....

have learned new techniques but I would benefit from some direction.

Last but not least I want to take dance classes. I took lessons as a child but did not continue into middle school. I regret that now and always enjoy watching others dance. I love it when Audrey wants to dance because it gives me an excuse to twirl, jump and move about and she actually things Mommy is good! So my final goal is to locate some dance classes and get movin! (anybody want to join me??)

Each Thursday I am going to post my progress for the week, what do I have to lose??

Birthday Boy!

Braylon turned 1 on August 31st!

He was a little under the weather during his birthday weekend but cheered up of an evening to play with his new toys.
