Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving. I hope everyone has a wonderful day! We had breakfast and then we are heading to my best friend Kellys to eat. We did a family thanksgiving last week with my inlaws. I am already hungry after eating a big mommas platter at Cracker Barrell! 

I want to say that I am very thankful to have my family. My wonderful ,beautiful, healthy children that God has blessed me with. My husband, as unperfect as he is because only one of us can be perfect and well it had to be me. My amazing mother who sticks by me and loves me even when I just suck. She is my best friend and I owe everything to her. My best friend Kelly who has also stuck by me and gotten me through everything. She is my second rock! And she feeds me! ;) All my other friends who are so awesome. I feel so blessed to be healthy and have shelter and have such a wonderful family. I feel blessed to have God in my life. When I base my descions and my life off his word, I get to live my life to fullest. 

And I am thankful we are blessed to have a badass football team! Lets give it up to them TITANS!!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving!

3 kids

I had one of my friends little girls last night over night. She is just 3 and not potty trained all the way yet. She is absolutely adorable and sweet and says thank you about everything. Its so sweet. Well this morning I was making muffins, from scratch I might add, and doing some laundry. It got so wild around here. I gave them both baths and dried both their hair. Then they needed to do their nails and lotion. And they changed shirts about 6 times a piece. lol I am glad I only have 1 girl right now! They are so high maintenance! I just threw Hunter in some fleece pants and a tee shirt and he was good to go. Snotty nose and all. Right after Hunter was born bc I had "new baby" on the brain I was convinced I wanted to try when he was 15 or so months old. Umm no thanks! Maybe 2 or 2 and a half or 3 lol. I am just glad I have my 2! I love having other kids over but I am definitely not ready for another one any time soon! LOL

Its a yucky day out. We are going to go to the movies later. We have all been sick and are just now getting better so that's good. Maybe I will get to do some xmas shopping this weekend!! I have no idea what to get! Have a great day!

Lazy

I am a lazy blogger! I always get on here to post and then something happens and I get up. I am sick right now. I feel awful! The kids have all been sick and I have been on antibiotics so I thought I was gonna not get it but as soon as I quit taking them I got sick! :( Things are good in our house. Hunter is walking all over the place. He is "talking" nonstop. Poor me bc Caroline already talks nonstop so 2 and my ears are probably going to explode! lol I have to brag on Caroline. She is the smartest girl! I am so proud of her. She really likes learning stuff at school and she has learned all her shapes which she knew but today told me that the shape on tv was a "pexagon". I thought that was really smart. She knows all the not so basic shapes. She can count to 100. She knows all her letters and can hear a word well most words and figure out what it starts with. She can read a few words now and know her address, where we live, her town, our phone numbers, etc. Her teachers have said to have her tested for the magnet schools so I might. I am not really sure. We are zoned AWESOME public schools. I am just really proud of Caroline and her wanting to learn and keep trying. She is even learning to add. I don't remember doing that at 4! Hunter on the other hand only says 2 words that I can "understand" uh oh and "ight" for light. lol He is just more active than Caroline. Today we met some friends and Chick Fila and he climbed in the tube by himself and half way up the slide which still blows my mind bc well he s only 12 months and Caroline didn't do any of that til 2. He is just more physically active than she was.
We had Thanksgiving at my inlaws this week. I made a lot of the food. I brined my turkey and cooked it. I did mashed potatoes, stuffing which was the best I ever had not to brag on myself lol, glazed carrots, 2 cakes, and gravy. AND I only managed to use about 4  BOXES of butter!!! I was really working on hard on making it low cal and low fat. hehe! I can't wait til next week to get my christmas decorations up!! Well I am off to get in bed and be sickly! Hope everyone has a great weekend!
