What's up

So, lets see.... Simon is 6months now and we're trying out food. He seems to like it ok but we haven't found the magic time for dinner where he's receptive to eating but not starving.

Houghton ran in the Ironkids triathlon in Tucson 2 weeks ago. He did sooo awesome! I am so proud of him. Just watching the kids do that makes me exhausted.

Mary is well...Mary, she's such a good girl these days. She loves her dance class and is doing so well. I can see such improvement when she follows the teacher.

I am working full time and enjoying having an early schedule however, 3am comes pretty early, especially since Simon has now decided he wants to eat at 4am, I feel bad because he usually waits until I don't have time to feed him and get ready for work so I have to wake Paul. I am sure he would appreciate not having to interrupt his sleep.

We are excited for next week, my baby brother will be coming to visit!! YAY!!
I am sad though I think our next few weekends are too busy to go to the pumpkin patch this year. I do have to say it's difficult because I want to be in the fall spirit but it will be 95 DEGREES!!! this weekend....UGH!!! it's frustrating because I love the weather and well, there really aren't any seasons in Phoenix.

It's frustrating because I really want to do stuff with the kids and create memories, not just rush them here to there and nag nag nag....especially since Paul is no longer studying it should be easier right????

Wow, has it been that long???

Ok, really quick before I have to run Houghton to choir.... most recently we were in Tucson this past weekend. Houghton participated in the Ironkids triathlon...that's right ....swim, bike, run....good thing he's young!! He did AWESOME...for not having done one before and riding uphill in a bike without gears!!! He really did well!!! We had a nice time and the weather is finally cooling off!

I am still enjoying my job. I am now starting even earlier....5am!! I do like it though...it's getting enough time in my day to get things done....hopefully this earlier time will actually do that. Crazy I know.

We're just chuggin along. Simon is now 6 months old! He's talking (cooing actually) and whistles (on accident) He's quite cute. My little monkey!

Mary is well, Mary. She still doesn't sleep much, which in and of itself is not a problem...it's the crankiness that comes with not having enough sleep I have trouble with. Otherwise she's an adorable 4 year old now :) Still dancing, playing dress up and just being a girl....
