First Day

I've been wanting to try this blogging thing for a while now. I got interested when I read Leigh Anne's, Melissa's, and Cara's. I thought, "Wow, I think I could do that!" LOL So, I'll give it a try.....

I'm not really sure how to start off. Maybe I should give you a little background on my family.

I've been married to Brandon for 6 years. What a man! He can still make me weak in the knees sometimes and so frustrated that I wanna slug him at other times! LOL I love him alot. I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for that man. He gave me the 2 best gifts. We have 2 sons, Braeden and Braxton, ages 5 and 2. They are amazing. And I truly believe that they have to be some of the most hardheaded and stubborn children I have ever laid eyes on! They will go to great lengths to prove you wrong or to do the exact opposite of what you asked them to do! LOL They surely keep us on our toes! Brandon works for an engineering company fulltime and I'm a fulltime x-ray tech. Braeden is in Pre-K and Braxton goes to daycare (or dayschool is what we like to call it!). We just moved into a gorgeous 3 bedroom house from a tiny, cramped 2 bedroom apartment. What a difference that's been! It's really nice to have a backyard where the boys can run, jump, and romp instead of being inside all the time. About a month ago, we had a nice "suprise" in our life. We decided to have Brandon's mother move in with us. She was having some hard times and Brandon wanted to help her. So, without hesitation, we moved her here and she's living with us now. It can be stressful at times, but all in all, we are making the best of it. And it's nice having someone who's already done all this "mothering stuff" before so that I can go to her for advice on everything from cooking to discipline. And we need LOTS of info on discipline! LOL Don't get me wrong....the boys are great!! They are just certainly very comfortable expressing their own opinions! Who knew 2 and 5 yr. olds even had their own opinions!
