Well, time has sure flown by fast. I have been so slow at keeping up with the blog. My humble apologies. I seriously doubt there is anyone out there who is sitting on the edge of the seat waiting for my to post. But it is fun to believe someone out there takes an interest in my boring life.
So here is a little rundown of the happening in our little world.
We finished up soccer season for all three kiddos. Taytum played a great spring volleyball season. We headed directly into baseball and softball season. School came to a closure and Tyler had to attend summer school. Summer kicked off in full force. HOT!!!
Tyler got to be pitcher in his baseball games a few time. Did really well. Tim got to see him play a game and pitch. Tyler was a very happy boy. He only wants to please his father. Taytum was the starting pitcher at all her games. Do not really know where they got the skills but I am proud of them both. Pitching is a hard thing to do, lots of pressure.
Tanner start kindergarten in a couple of weeks. I swear he has grown so much in the last month. He has been driving me insane. Tyler is in Texas at his fathers and Taytum has been at constant sleepovers all summer. Comes home every couple of days. So Tanner has had nobody to play with. When Taytum is home she just taunts him and makes him cry. SISTERS!!!
I finally can say I am a professional photography. Finally got paid for some work. Now I have been busy trying to find out way to get more business. I have been giving these people picture for free for so long. They don't want to actually have to pay for it. I guess that is my fault. Should have been greedy for the beginning. Its hard starting a business. I don't have a website and not a whole lot of experience with other people beside my children. So I am working on that as well. I have a few people who are asking for my services. And soon I hope to have a website set up. Did name my photography studio. In a "Snap" Photography. Catchy? I hope so. I am making flyer's to try and do some sports team photos and such.
Brad and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary. Every year we like to give a shot out to the doubters, who thought we would have failed by now. We have been through some tough stuff, but we are stronger for it. This last year has been hard. We are slowly getting back on our feet and the future is looking bright. We moved into a little town home back by the kids school. Which is good because the drive was crazy.
With Taytum starting middle school this year, I have to take her to school a 7:40am. Then the boys at 8:30am. Pick up Tanner at noon, then Tay at 2:50 followed by Tyler at 3:30 pm. Talk about always at the school. Plus I am in charge of the picture board at the elementary school. So I have to be up there for the events and such.
Soccer starts next month. All three are playing again. Could not convince Taytum to give it up just yet. Tyler is playing flag football. Just not ready for him in tackle. A lot of kids have come back to flag because they did not like tackle. Taytum will do volleyball again. Of course!! She is good at it. I think in the end her sports of choice will be Volleyball and Softball. Tyler will do anything and everything. Tanner just wants to dance as he told me last night. What a crazy kid.
I am missing Tyler a lot these days. He is my little sidekick. He is never to old to give me a hug. Tanner and Tay are. Makes me sad. I am not ready for my children to not need me anymore. Tanner is 5 and so independent. Only time he needs me is to wipe his butt. Sure wish he would learn that one. I will most likely cry when my baby goes into the school doors for kindergarten this year. I might cry when Taytum goes to middle school. I hope that it is a smooth transition for her. She said she is not nervous but I know its a big deal to her. It middle school. I remember how weird and awkward it was. People starting to change while other were falling behind. Starting to like boys. Gym and showers. Bad Memories!!!!
Anyhow, I pick up Tyler on Sunday. Then the adventure starts. My calendar is already full and there is still so much to go.
Till next time......
