Some of my Cakes

My friend Krista wanted me to post some of the cakes that I have done.  So, here are a few.  Enjoy!

It's all about teeth!

So, Kayla lost another tooth. I have video of her pulling it out by herself, and if I get everything together, I'll post it. She was very excited and proud that she pulled it out herself. Then on Monday, Kayla had an appointment at the dentist to finish getting a long list of fillings and other work done. I didn't take her to my work because we had already started the work at a different dentist office and they do sedation. Kayla has extreme anxiety when it comes to the dentist. Chris had the day off and took her. She did really well and was happy with herself for being so good. I feel really bad for her because she brushes her teeth, uses mouth wash and flosses, but she just has bad teeth.

Yesterday, Austin came to my work and got his teeth cleaned. He was so cute. Chris was with him and I popped my head in whenever I had a free moment. I got so busy with work, that I forgot to snap some pictures. Oh, well.

That's what our life has been about lately: teeth, teeth, and more teeth!

Kayla's Tooth

The other day, Chris and I decided it was time for Kayla's loose tooth to come out.  She always lets them stay in way too long until they are barely hanging in her mouth.  Chris was excited to finally be a part of this event.  For every one of the six teeth that she had already lost, Chris had always been away doing army training.  Chris got a pair of medical gloves out of his army bag and pulled it out.  

Just another day

So, I'm not very good at writing about our everyday happenings. The other night, I was more tired than usual and I was laying on my bed. Austin came over and laid next to me and was talking up a storm about his day at school. He talked for an hour! I love my little man. He is hilarious. Listening to him talk, amazes me because he sounds so much older.

Kayla is sassy as ever. I think she's been a teenager for two years now. Not really, but it feels like it. I keep hoping it's a phase. But, she is very kind and loving. She is always watching out for Austin and always wants to help me. I love our mother/daughter talks and we always enjoy "girl time" by going shopping.

Chris is busy at work, as usual. Don't ask us when he's leaving or where he's going becuase it is constantly changing. We are just enjoying our time together while we can.

I am still loving my job. I was worried about how the kids would be going to Primetime after school, but they absolutely love it. I had two days off work last week, but they asked me not to pick them up after school so they could go to Primetime. I still picked them up, but I thought it was funny that they would rather be there than come home and spend more time with me. Go figure.

Nine Years and still going Strong

Yesterday, Chris and I celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary.  I wouldn't trade what I have with him for anything.  I Love You!

Thought this would Never happen

On Friday, Chris and I experienced a phenomenon we only dreamed about.  We both had the day off of work and the kids were at school.  Yes, there is light at the end of the tunnel.  Our kids are great, but it was nice to enjoy a day together and not have to pay a babysitter.  We dropped the kids off to school and then headed to the gym.  After that, we enjoyed a nice lunch out.  It was a nice and relaxing day.
