Happy Birthday dear Craig!

Happy Birthday to you!

Today is Craig's 32nd birthday. If you happen to see him today make sure you let him know how important/special he is to you :) Hope you have a good day Honey!

I should have knocked on wood.

When I made my last post about nothing going on I should have knocked on some wood. We are now headed the other way. So far there is only one bit of bad news. Our beloved dog, Sheba, is sick. We have had her since we before we got married. She really is CJ's dog now.....she sleeps with him every night and he is in charge of her care. The other day he was giving her a pep talk that she was in charge of the house while we weren't there. :) We noticed she just was not herself and took her to the vet. She got a coupld of shots (vit B and cortisone) and some antibiotics. Then we got a call the next morning from the vet. It seems that he bloodworked showed what seems to be chronic liver failure :( However, he said it could be from the infection. We are hoping with all our might that this is the case. Any good thoughts would be appreciated. She has been a few days on the antibiotics now and seems to be back to her old self, so we will continue with the meds and see how it goes.

Another thing that happened was that I got an early birthday present for Craig. My sister and I went out for dinner and had a great time. It was really nice to spend time to myself and also time with her. While we were out I got this tattoo. I think it turned out really nice. Craig joked with me that if we ever got a divorce, I could just add a jr to the end.

CJ will be going to school soon. He is so excited! Friday we will go to get his school stuff as this weekend is tax free holiday here in MO. I have already bought him some new clothes and he has them all lied up as to what he wants to wear each day the first week. I cannot believe my baby is going to school!

My other baby boy Drake will be one year old in another month. Time is flying by so quickly! He is the happiest kiddo that I have ever meant. He actually took two steps the other day. I am posting all my pictures at the top as I cannot figure out how to put them at the end, but I will include a couple of Drake.

Happy Birthday today to my "baby" sister Erin, who is now expecting her own first baby. :)

A whole lot of nothing.

There is a whole lot of nothing going on at our house lately. For that I am very thankful.....:) The kids are doing well, no big accidents or injuries. We have been playing outside a bunch. It has been really hot, so we have been trying to play in the water a lot. CJ is very excited about school. He cannot wait and already has his book bag picked out. My nephew Bryant will be on the front page of the Post next weekend.....we are all very excited about that! Both of my sisters are pregnant and the kids are anxiously waiting their new cousins. I jokingly told Craig that I was feeling left out and he said "Well, it better stay that way!". Work has not been the greatest for either of us lately, but coming home to the family always makes up for it. I hope to have more to post about soon with lots of birthdays coming up and CJ's first day of school.
