Where does time go??

I know it has been 3months since my last post. Sorry! Life got the best of me! We have been so busy. I have started back to school, changed my major (again), and started keeping kids in my home on a full time bases.
I changed my major because I still have not passed the Reading section of the Praxis 1. I changed my major to General Studies which means I have 3 minors. To me it looks like I could not make up my mind on what I wanted to go to school for. I will graduate in May with minors in Education, History, and English. I know people wonder what I can do with this degree. I can teach with it and go into the alternative route to teaching and teach 7th-12th. I have always wanted to teach the older ones and be a Beta Sponsor. I do not really know what or where I want to teach.
i have had several moms ask me to stay at home and keep their little ones while they were at work. Of course, I said yea! This really helps me get my baby fix for the day and send them home. Ha! It's been great so far. I have two full time and one part time. I have several that haven't even made it into the world yet. Jake's little brother/sister is on my waiting list. I'm so excited to get these new ones. Jake is going to be a great big brother.



Andrew has been all over with his new job. He went to Canada a couple of weeks ago and just got back from an Atlantic Coast run. I'm going to meet her next week during a weekend getaway to Atlanta. I'm really excited about that. I'm also going to hunt down a store from a show I watch that comes on Lifetime. I can wait to getaway for a weekend to spend time with the hubs since it's really hard now since I'm taking night classes, and he's traveling.


My parents have celebrated another birthday. My dad turned 50 this year! I'm so excited for him and can't wait to celebrate more.



I go back to Dr. Cannon for my four year check-up on Oct 14, I'm doing well and can't believe I have been out for four years. I have learned so much about my illness and how it reacts to everyone involved. UC did not get the best of me!

That was an update on what's going on now. Now to get to the rest of the summer. I had a great time on Vacation this year. There was another shark caught while we were there. Also, Morgan and I were swimming about 40 yards away from one and was told to get out of the water. I had no idea why we needed to get out of the water until we walked out of the water and the guy told us about the shark. To make it a small world, I did not recognize the guy and his family at the time, but I met them and a mutual friend's gender reveal party. I noticed them on a comment that was made on that friends' Facebook post. Zoey was a joy to be around at the beach. She loved the water and liked me more when I would take her to the edge to put her toes in. She laughed and played with all of us as she warmed up.

I left Casper and Lady in the care of the kennel where Layla and Bella stayed. I have to say that cried like a baby when I dropped them off. I have left them with family for over night and that kind of thing but never really with total strangers. I know the kennel manager thought that I was crazy! She was great and put me at ease about leaving my babies. I don't have kids of my own yet at treat them like I would if I had kids. Yes, they do sleep with Andrew and myself. The manager was great. She let me call and sent me pictures of them the first day and the third day to make me feel comfortable. It was a blessing to have her. We all went in together to get her a happy for taking such great care of our babies. If ever in Tupelo, MS and need someone to keep your animals call the Pet Peabody.

Jaylee has turned 3 and is becoming more and more into a little girl and not a baby. She still is in love with her PopPop, my dad.
