It's all about the growth!!!!

Wow, where does the time go? We are already in to the second month of 2008. It is amazing how time just passes you by without you even noticing! I guess I should update on us and where I am at with my goals for 2008. I have been sick this past week which has not been a lot of fun. My household doesn't function very well when I am not at full strength. I am hoping that is all behind me now and as soon as I can get past this migraine that things will start to be better.

The kiddos are all doing good. Skylar got an "amazing" in school yesterday and her report card was okay. She has been struggling with listening but hopefully we are working on that. Peyton is a nut as always. She is quick to smile but will let you know as soon as you have done something she does not like. Those eyebrows go down and the lips purse up. lol As you can see, Brayden got a major haircut this week courtesy of his Daddy. (Mommy had no input into it whatsoever!) I am getting used to it but man, I wonder where my little boy has gone. Of course, then you get the hangdog look like in pic #2 and he is back again. I just miss all of that beautiful blonde hair. I guess I shouldn't be so sentimental. It is only hair, right? (Tell me it's only hair!)

As far as my goals, I am doing okay. Back to drinking Dr. Pepper again although I am limiting myself to one a day if that. I have been crafting up a storm and should have some new pics to show shortly. I joined a couple of online swaps and have two of the five done. It has really been a lot of fun to branch out and do things that I have never done before. My assignment for the Pink House is definitely a stretch this week but it is going to be so cute when it is done. Pics to follow. I fell off the Photo-A-Day band wagon last week when I got sick but am back on now. You can see some of my latest creations there. This month I hope continues to be even better than last. I have a few things that I have been thinking about to make life a little easier so hopefully I can get them going and start enjoying myself a little more.
