The little man is growing up...I was browsing through some pictures and ran across this fun picture.

{NOVEMBER}....is quickly slipping by and Christmas will be here before we turn around. Life is good, and once again I am pretty much behind on life. The kiddos are still just being kiddos. Jaden is out with friends every chance he gets and Jaxen can't figure out why he can't go with the big boys. Jaden decided not to play basketball this year, which makes me sad, but he didn't want to spend all of his time doing that when he could be focusing more on baseball. Jaxen is killing Kindergarten, loving it and of course the smartest in his class, just ask him. Get out there and get your Christmas shopping done, time will soon be running out....

The little man is officially in Kindergarten. I can't believe how the time has flown and now my buddy leaves me for a couple of hours during the day, which makes me happy for his independence but sad for my loneliness. He is rocking school and says that he is the KING OF THE PLAYGROUND and the boss (that doesn't surprise me one little bit). His teacher is Mrs. Werber and he thinks she is great and has cool hair. He is learning to read and can read most of his sight word books by himself. Jaden picks him up from school a couple of times a week and all of his little buddies wish they had a brother that could drive. I am so glad that my children love going to school and learning.... LIFE IS GOOD.

Fall is in the air everywhere. I love it, the weather has been to die for and of course Halloween candy on the shelves could put a smile on anybody's face. I am seriously so made that I have let my blog go, I forgot how happy it makes me to go back and look at the cuteness of my kiddos. I have made myself a super duper big fat promise to get back at it.... In the meantime, enjoy OCTOBER.

{FuN VaCAtiON}......to grandma's house he goes. Jaxen has spent a little time at grandma's house this summer. This last trip over he stayed an entire week and I rode over for a couple of days so it broke up the time a little. He had a great time over there, took swimming lessons for 5 days and passed the level 1 swim class, he is still timid in the water but I think it is important for them to learn how to swim. Most of the cousins were there and they had a great time just playing together, helping grandma in the yard, playing with MJ (the dog), making smores at night, and swimming. Jaxen you are so lucky that you have a great family that takes the time out to play with you and to take care of you when you are gone....Summer is slipping by and then we move on to the next phase of school. I can't believe my baby goes to Kindergarten...Life is good, especially when you have a smile like the little man....I love that kid!

{HAPPY BIRTHDAY}....the big "16", can't believe that is even possible. I put 14 candles on your cake hoping that it wasn't true, but it is, the driver license in your hand is more than enough to prove it. You are the best kid a mom could ask for, you are funny, a hard-worker, a friend, a great brother and many other things at that. At 16 you.....love music, hanging out with your buddies, your new truck, you love that you have a job so all those things like that rockin stereo system can become possible. You love staying up late, lifting weights, chocolate milk, mountain dew, your little brother, baseball. I love this time in your life even if it kinda makes me a little teary to think that time is soon running out and you before I know it you will be packing your bags and moving on to another phase in your life. I love your carefree spirit and how you can hang out and be friends with anyone around. You are such a great kid and you make me proud everytime I look at you....keep up your love for life and always make the best out of what life offers you. I LOVE YOU....but turn down the stereo.

july 4th....

{Time is flying by}....for me and I am sure everyone else. I can't believe that it is the fourth of July already and summer will be over as fast as it started. I am super behind on my blog and my life but what do you do. We have had a great summer this year. I have been working a lot and so I have tried to sneak in some fun times when we get a chance. Jaden is playing summer baseball and doing pretty good, he got a job this summer working for my brother and it has been a little rough trying to work, lift weights, hang-out, play baseball and just be a kid. More hours in the day would sometimes be nice. Jaxen just finished up T-ball, he wasn't a huge fan, wanted to play with the big boys. All in all life is moving by and I am trying to just enjoy the moment and live life. HAPPY 4th of JULY....
