Let me be the first to welcome you to chaos!! Our house (just ask our friends) can be a bit overwhelming. Let's start with the kids........
We've got Cameron Reece (4) who is super smart, stubborn, and spirited (that's another word for Strong willed), and very independent. She started talking when she was about 12mths old and by 15 mths was speaking in full sentences. She hasn't stopped!! Nicknames include Reecie, Camreece, and ladybug. Her hobbies include watching TV and doing puzzles and going to time out.
Then there's Colby Ross (1) who would let you hold him all day. He loves to cuddle and is happiest when you are giving him your undivided attention. He's getting better at entertaining himself but we aren't there yet. He's not huge on watching TV but LOVES watching baseball! Nicknames include, chunk, chunkers, and buggie. Right now he is focusing on learning to walk!
Then you throw 3 dogs into the mix.
Oliver - The English Bulldog who is large, and not smart, and has a face only a mother could love. He snores and snorts and slobbers....
Gus - The Boston Terrier who loves to be loved, hates Oliver, and is my heater at night when he curls up next to me in bed.
Nattie - The Chihuahua if this wasn't a family style blog I would call her a bad name. She is just not very friendly (well she is to me and Rob). She hates kids, other dogs, and most people in general.
Wow doesn' t all that sound FUN!!! Now include 2 working parents. Rob builds power lines for TXU. I am a Jr High teacher and a photographer. Cheerleading class for Cameron, Teaching Youth on Wednesday, Small Group on Thursday and well you can imagine how often my house get cleaned. :0) At this point I'm looking for a cook, maid, and laundress who will work for FREE!! Any Takers???
Here it is the start of one more think I'm going to attempt to take care of, a family blog! My motto is at the top....We're all a little mad here. You'll find I reference Alice in Wonderland a lot. It's a childhood fav that impressed me not only the first time, but also the second when I saw it with Johnny Depp (well anything he does impresses me....Shhh don't tell Rob)!
And Now It Begins....................
