I think it's LOVE

Scott always gives Brett his last bottle of the day and then puts him to bed. Lately, after he's finished with his bottle, Brett just stares at Scott before falling asleep...it's the same picture every night.

And instead of capturing the same picture twenty nights in a row, I have refrained and only captured two nights. Now that's will power if I do say so myself...I mean just look at them.

Back to the Sooner State Countdown

I can't decide if it's too early to start the Oklahoma countdown especially since I told my husband last night that I know we are excited to move back but please don't wish away the days we have here.

Then I saw this on a friend's facebook post:

Good Old OKLAHOMA - Where the Tea is Sweet & Accents are Sweeter, Summer Starts in April, Front Porches are Wide & Words are Long, Macaroni & Cheese is a Vegetable, Y'all is a Proper Pronoun, Chicken is Fried, & Biscuits Come with Gravy, and Okra is a main staple for supper in the summer time. Everything is Honey & Someone is Always Getting Their Heart Blessed. I am PROUD TO BE FROM OKLAHOMA!!!


Then I smiled and decided it's not too early at all. Here's to 2 months and 2 weeks until we are back in the Sooner State dying of heat exhaustion and blistered from excessive sun exposure!

Mini Photoshoot

The other morning we decided to have a mini-photoshoot, well who am I kidding we have photoshoots every morning, afternoon, evening...we're basically taking pictures of this kid 24/7.


The first picture captures Bailey's new reality...always in the background, never the center of attention anymore. She's adjusting well though. It is funny though every time I'm down on the floor playing with Brett she gets her toys and wants to play too.

Brett is such a serious little baby, especially in pictures. He is definitely his father's child. The moment the camera comes out the smiles go away. Hopefully, unlike his dad, he'll learn to cooperate for pictures before he's 25 and not make his prom dates beg for a picture or have his fiance remind him to smile before every picture during their engagement shoot. Anyhoooo, I digress....


My point to all that is I finally caught him being silly and sweet.

Long Overdue

You know it's time to get a pedicure when your husband who sees his fair share of awful looking feet drops his jaw when looking at yours and then proceeds to tell you that they look worse than his diabetic patients.

Guess we all know what I'll be doing this weekend.

Just Keep Running

Yesterday I started a running program. And it only took me 3 months after having Brett to get motivated. I tried to start working out several times before, going from 4 times a week to then missing 2 weeks. I just thought a shower or a clean house was more important than working out...well that's not the case anymore. I may smell and have grease dripping from my hair and have 4 inches of dust in the house, but at least I'll get a workout in. I started a couch to 5K treadmill program. It's fairly easy, it's an 8 week program requiring me to run 3-4 times a week and incorporates walking with running. By doing this hopefully I won't get bored as it will change up every week and it won't overwork me so that I quit after a week. And now that I've announced it to the world (and by world, I mean the 2, maybe 3 of you that read this blog) there's no way I can quit.
