It has been forever. There is actually a good reason for that. Work was really slow for my husband recently, so we cut out a lot of unnecessary items as far as bills are concerned. Unfortunately, the internet was one of them. But now we are up and running and I couldn't be happier. I will be updating this as often as I can. I enjoy writing about my life/family and I am seriously considering writing a book about being the mother of two boys and the wife to an amazing man.
Sooo much has happened since I have last posted. The craziest (and most fun) is that our dog Daphne has had puppies!! She delivered 5 beautiful, healthy puppies about 4 weeks ago. 4 girls and 1 boy...finally I am no longer out numbered due to testerone in this family. I love and adore them all and of course we need to find homes for them. We have 2 going to great homes but 3 more to go. I secretly want to keep them, but thinking my husband isn't going to like having 5 dogs around. Hoping that it all works out and the pups go to loving homes (psst, if not, they are staying here with us!) We are in the process of wheaning them off of Daphne and have started feeding them puppy chow. We add water to it, microwave it, then mush it down so it is easier for them to eat. They love it, but I don't know if they are actually eating it...seems to be an awful lot of puppy food on their feet when they are finished. One of them jumped right into the bowl!! So funny!! Like I said, I adore them! Dylan likes them too. One day a puppy pooped on the floor and I asked Dylan to please clean it up. He said "No problem mom, even their poop is cute!" I about fell over! Not sure if he will feel that way as they get bigger, but for now, I am taking advantage of it.
Ethan celebrated his 5th birthday on February 12th. Yes, I said 5....going on 15. He already has a bit of an attitude. I find it charming sometimes, but for the most part, not so much. He can be very stubborn, but he is also one of the most loving, caring little guy you will ever meet. He has lots of friends at school and he loves everyone. He informed me the other day that he loves me a lot. I told him that I loved him too and he said "No mommy, I love you more then cookies!" Now that is true love! My 5 year old son loves me more then cookies...what can be better then that??
Dylan also celebrated a birthday since the last time I blogged. He turned 7 on October 29th. We had about 12 boys over to celebrate with pizza, cake and ice cream. We played games and about 5 of those boys spent the night. Everyone had tons of fun and I think it's a birthday that Dylan won't soon forget!! He has grown up so much. He is so mature, has a great sense of humor and really smart. His parent-teacher conference went really well and he is consistently getting A's on his spelling and math tests. I'm not sure where the brains came from, but I will take it!!
I'm sure there is much more that I can write about it, but for now I'm calling it a day. I need to get things done around the house before the chaos of the school week begins. Have a great night and please, drop me a line letting me know that someone actually reads this thing!! xoxo - Em
