Book Club: The Carpet Baggers

I joined a book club about a year ago. I LOVE books. My husband jokes that my dream vacation would be for him to take the kids and leave me home so I could read.

It has been at least a year since I looked at this blog. So much living has happened in the Wise household. I guess the biggest life changing event would be the addition of Travis Wayne Wise on May 15th. The first month was a big adjustment, but I am now looking back and wondering where the days went. Soon my sweet baby will be 3 months.

Tyler is also rapidly changing from a toddler to a little boy. He is talking and talking (did I say talking) up a storm. When he hears a new word you can see his mind spinning and him savoring it. He tries his parents patience daily, but says the cutest things that makes it all worth it. What a busy boy, he is on the go from 5:30 in the morning until 8:00 at night. Travis sleeps better than his brother.

Dustin is near the end of sprinkler checking. He says that is the least favorite of his job, but he sure more than willing to check sprinklers when both the boys are screaming. I think he likes being able to see the wildlife. He is counting the days until turkey opening season.

As for me (um....where do I start) I decided to stay home and quit my job as the YHS art teacher. I will miss the kids, being surrounded by art, and my all-by-myself hour in the car (especially the last one!) I would solve all the worlds problems in an hour or I would play "what would I do if I won Powerball game."

The boys and I are beginning to develop a routine. Sometimes we have successful days and sometimes we have not so successful days. Overall I am happy with the decision I made and very blessed to have such heathy, sweet, and ornery boys (Dad included)

Summer...

Stompin' like dinosaur

The past two years we have made the trip up to Breckenridge. I love the little boutiques, the food, and the view. It was so nice to see tyler bonding with grandma, and dustin and i getting some time to ourselves.

summer...

I wonder what he is thinking with that expression

being home with a toddler is BUSY, yet there are those sweet moments when you wish time would stand still.

Tyler is growing so much. He is becoming his own person. His summer has been full already. Earlier we went to Breckenridge and just recently we visited the aquarium. He moves so fast most of the pictures were a blur.
