First things first!! We celebrated our nieces first birthday this past weekend. It was so much fun and we are still in awe that it has been a whole year since she unexpectingly joined us four weeks early last year! Peyton is so beautiful and such a little fire cracker. At least once a week I find my husband laughing and he has thought about something that she has done and is still laughing about it. **He sure loves both of our nieces** We had such a great time at her birthday and enjoyed playing with all of the kiddos. Brax was so worn out Sunday that he took two naps- one was 2-1/2 hours long and the second one was 1 hour.
Date Night: This is totally random but I have the hardest time with this. Hubby and I were talking the other night about having "us" time and how we really do not take a lot of time for us as a couple without Braxton. Since Brax has been born we have not gone out too much. We might go to dinner or out with friends but we never stay gone long. I have had many people tell me that we need to make sure to take time for us as a couple but I seriously have the hardest time with this. I always want to tell them "We did not have kids to go out every weekend" or "We did not have children for them to be with a babysitter all the time." I know it sounds rude but I seriously have the hardest time with someone telling me that I need to leave my baby. (Yes, I get horrible anxiety and guilt about being away from him for a long period of time) Anyways.... we are going to work on this. We both agreed that it is important to take time for "us as a couple" so I am planning a date night! I really have NO idea what we will do or where we will go but we are both excited!
Christmas: 103 days until Christmas and we are bound and determined to get all of our shopping done and not charge any of it. I feel silly asking for people's lists now but we have to do what we have to do! So.... I have been collecting ideas and we will be starting our Christmas shopping this month. I love Christmas shopping!!! and I LOVE wrapping!!!!!!
School: I am loving this year so far. Yes, there have been a TON of changes but I just do what I am suppposed to do and try not to gripe or get caught up in others griping about it and it makes it all easier! My kiddos this year are FABULOUS! Of course there are always a few that will keep you on your toes but so far they have been GREAT!!!! Love them!
Braxton: He is still just as cute as ever!
