Why Do Listen Ears Always Disappear???

I have told Little Bug 4 times to get in the shower since we have been home from the bus... Yet still no shower.  I know as we get older, the listening ears get more selective like  I told Bug to empty the Dishwasher and amazingly she did not hear me.  However, she heard me tell Garrett about some stuff with the house that I was whispering... I tell you what...

What a Nice Day...

Hey y'all.  So it has been a long time no chat.  You see I have been a bit homesick the last few weeks and have not really wanted to do anything but go home.  I'm not saying I don't like Georgia as we have started to really make a place for ourselves in our little community of Rincon.  But it is not "home" and I don't know if it will be compared to Kansas at least for me.

I know it sounds kind of crazy but I miss working at a totally messed up place.  I miss my wonderful friends and family. The one thing I do know is that my "Peeps" will always be a part of my life no matter what happens in Georgia or Kansas.  I just have to make sure to keep tabs and make an effort.

Today was Garrett's 34th Birthday and for his birthday, he wanted to take a trip to Detroit, MI to visit his friends Noell and Mr. Ly. Yes he still has some.  They had a old man frat weekend with a bit of drinking and a lot of fun. 

He got home yesterday and took today off and it was really a great time.  We took the kids to school, went to workout and the TRX class about killed both of us.  Then we picked up my friend Ms. Kathy who just had a c-section in May and back surgery 4 weeks ago and needs a bit of help to do some things like grocery shopping.  Garrett held and played with the baby while I pushed the cart and kept Anna, the 2 year old and one of Bug's good friends, busy naming colors and fruit while Kathy put all the groceries in the cart.  After we were done and made Anna lunch and got her ready for nap, Garrett and I went to lunch at our favorite Mexican joint. 

The weather was so awesome today.  I love the cooler temps and the sunshine.  We got the girls off the buses and then off to our extracurricular activities, Bug to Ms. Sarah's for a babysitting gig with help from Mom and Little Bug and Dad to soccer.  We had dinner, ice cream cake and a little regular cake because I wanted it. 

Garrett and his ice cream cake.  Anna helped pick out the candles for the cake. 

 I promised her a piece tomorrow.



Bug tring to give Garrett bunny ears,  What a pain.



Little Bug checking out the presents.  Garrett is lucky that she doesn't wear

the same size because she was going to take it.



I really love days like today, we had alone time, friend time, kid time and family time all in one day and never felt over whelmed. I will say Garrett does a good job playing with the babies and little ones, we make the best Aunt and Uncle ever.  (No, I don't have the baby bug. I'm totally content and happy with the way things are in the family department and so is Garrett.)
