My Little Worm

So it is official, my little boy is mobile!  Kayson is quickly perfecting his army crawl and is constantly practicing the crawling stance, (this has been happening for about a week).  He likes to get into the stance, rock forward and backward, and then when he tries to go forward he bends his little elbows instead of keeping them straight and crumples into a ball on the floor.  It is so cute to watch!

It is pretty crazy now, we can't even leave him on his tummy without him wiggling down the hallway after us.  I have to admit, I wasn't planning on having to worry about everything else in the house so early, but Kayson is like me, an early crawler.

I can't wait to see how long it is before he is completely mobile and getting into everything!  So fun!  I love being a Mom!

Kayson's First Golfing Trip

Last night Jayson and I were pretty restless and wanted to go do something fun, so we grabbed the golf clubs and Kayson and went to the driving range.  Keep in mind that Kayson has never seen golf clubs or golf balls and so when Jayson and I proceded to hit these itty bitty balls with these massively huge sticks Kayson seriously thought it was one of the funniest things he had ever seen.  Every single time Jayson or I would hit the golf balls Kayson would break into uncontrolable laughter.  It seriously was the funniest thing I had ever seen.  He really made us laugh and made focusing really hard.

Today, Kayson and Jayson where playing indoor putt-putt in the family room using some old mugs as the holes/targets.  Everytime Jayson would putt at the ball, Kayson would try to snatch the ball before it went into the mug.  Sometimes Jayson would miss and Kayson would pick up the ball and put it in the cup for his Daddy.  So cute!

Well that is the latest and greatest of Kayson!

I NEED a Project!

So I pretty much finished my classroom today.  Other then Circuiting out some words for wall labels in the classroom and getting them hung up, I really have nothing else to do; which has now got me wanting another project to do.  Even the painting at my parent's is done! 

I guess I could over the top and make massively huge animals to put on the walls and get some more butcher paper and poster putty and make my classroom more into an ocean.  Or I could create some posters for the class and laminate them to put rules and goals on.  So I guess I just thought of some more projects to do.  This year I guess my motto at school is going to be "Go Big or Go Home"!  I guess we will see how time goes.

I still want a constructive project to do.  Maybe I will talk my parents into helping me create the bookcase/shelving unit I want to make, since the other piece of furniture I want to get for my place is apparently only a thing of my dreams and doesn't exsist on KSL, Craigslist, or any of the furniture stores.  Hopefully, I will be able to humor this urge to do something big soon without driving myself into the poor house or maybe I will feel better when this stupid "nesting" thing goes away.  For some reason I thought this urge was suppose to happen before you have a baby and then disapate, not come after you have your baby and then last for months.  Oh well...we will just have to see what happens!

Life Unravels Fast!

So the last time I blogged I was venting about cell phones and cars.  Little did I know from that time, that in a few short days I would be purchasing a 2005 Acura TL.  I have to say that I love this car!  I am not totally thrilled about some of the maintence that needs to be done (alignment and rotation of the tires), but when it comes down to a car that fits our family, and that Jayson and I agreed upon, I couldn't be happier! 

Also, since the last time I blogged, Jayson turned 28 years old, and Kayson turned 6 months old and has been trying to figure out how to crawl ever since.  I am looking forward to the day he does crawl, but at the same time I would prefer he puts it off because I want him to stay my baby forever and the day he starts to crawl will be the one day that will put him closer to independence!

Jayson and I have been helping my mom this last week to get her place painted for when she and my dad move out here, to Utah, in the next couple of weeks.  It has been an absolutely huge project, but a lot of fun because we get to spend time together as a family.  Plus, this move means we get an extra set of hands to help with Kayson which will be nice since he loves his Nana and Papa.

I pretty much have my classroom ready to go for this up coming school year, I just need to add the finishing touches; and can say that I am really grateful for the team of teachers that I will be working with this school year.  I am finally with a group of teachers who have the same teaching practices as me and like to be prepared before we jump out the gate for this upcoming school year, which is awesome!  I have to admit that the butterflies are beginning earlier than they did last year and that I am beginning to have teaching dreams again!  As much fun as it is to teach, doing it in your sleep and then doing it the next day is exhausting so I am hoping that these dreams will subside once this school year gets underway.

It is amazing to see how fast this year has gone by.  Here is it August, and since the beginning of the year we have celebrated family member's birthdays, increased our family size, graduated Jayson with his AS degree, I have gotten a job at a new school, taken Kayson on vacation, have lived through 2 new teeth and ear infections with the baby, celebrated Jayson's birthday and now Jayson and my 2nd wedding anniversary is coming up!  I can't believe that it has been two years since we got married and will be 6 years that we have known and loved each other, CRAZY!

I will blog as more happens!
