I'm going for it!

I've decided to take the plunge and get this blogging on the go. I've been telling my family that I would start it so that they can keep up with the children, but I'm so addicted to reading everyone else's blogs that I haven't made time for my own. I hope that I will be as addicted to posting as I am reading everyone else's post-ha.

We are so enjoying this weather right now. We've used our fire place all week and it has been wonderful to cuddle up in front of it with the kids. Trever loves to sit in "daddy's chair" with daddy and of coarse Abbie likes to sit right on top of me. It's the life after a long day of school, work, and all the other bussiness throughout the day. I don't want this weather to end just yet, but I know it will be gone in a blink of an eye. Who knows, next week we might be in shorts and my children will be begging their daddy to put up the hose on the trampoline. For right now, I plan to enjoy the chill bumps and see my breath as I walk out the door.

I want to share one last thing and then I think I'll call it quits for now. Today Trever wanted me to read him a story (he wants that everyday, at least three times) and I just could not do it right then. So, Abbie volunteered herself to read Trever a story and he actually agreed to it. So, she read his favorite, Cat in the Hat, and she did a wonderful job. After every page Trever would say "great job, sissy" or "wow, that was great, sissy." She would smile everytime he said something and I know it was making her heart feel so proud and boosting her confidence. I just loved watching them in that moment. I hope that was just a little glimpse of what kind of little brother he will be to her in the future. He tells us all the time that he wants to marry Abbie, and she giggles and tells him that he can not marry his sister. He pops back with "oh yes I can and I'm going to marry mommy too." It just makes my heart melt to know he loves me that much. God help that future daughter-in-law. That is unless it's Maddie Grace Symonds. She stole mine and Jeff's heart a long time ago and I know I'd be willing to share Trever with her-ha,ha.

I hope to get pictures posted tomorrow.............hopefully very soon Christy will be coming out to the house to take family pictures out on our property then I'll definately have some great pics. to post.
