Happy Valentines Day

Today is Valentines and I woke up with two of my favorite people beside me---Gunnar and Gates.. Todd unfortunately got the boot last night. He didn't get home until late so our request to him was to sleep on the couch!! Well, not really, but we did leave him a note to please sleep in Gunnars room. They enjoy having a night with mom every now and then and I love it too. We all snuggled up and watched a little TV until they both fell asleep. To be honest I didn't even hear Todd come in last night--he was busy after his meet, setting up for the meet that was to take place all weekend.. UGH!! I did however smell the aroma of his smokey cigar slipping through my window at about 1am, as he sat on the deck trying to unwind--after a wonderful win against UNC AGAIN!!!!!!! YEEHAW! The gymnastic team is definitely coming back after a bit of a rocky start. We've won our last two home meets. Todd will be away for the next four weeks--WHEW-- that means lots of kid time for me YIKES. Nah, we will be fine I just have to keep them moving and we will all survive. So as for today, Valentines Day I'm sitting alone doing what I want to do as the kids are at NC State having hopefully a wonder full daddy day. I'm loving every minute of my quiet time. I wish I could stop thinking of all the things that need to be done! Until next time....... happy hearts to all!!!

Gates Kiss

I thought I would quickly write this little tid bit while my little Romeo sleeps so sweetly. The other day Gunnar was at school and Gates and I were on the computer looking at Tiffany's facebook page(our friends that just moved to Dallas) and he saw a picture of Aleah(there 6 year old daughter)and he said "that's a pretty girl" I said "are you talking about Aleah?" and he said "yup, remember when I kissed her?" and I said "yes". He replied back with "I liked it"!!!!!!! We went to the beach with them over Thanksgiving and he would not leave her alone, that is when the kiss occurred. According to him and Aleah one day they are going to get married.. I guess time will only tell. As we all know distance does make the heart grow fonder:)

Back in Action

Well it's been quite a while since I've updated this crazy blog, but I'm being bombarded by my family to get on the ball.. It's just been crazy busy around here. Gymnastic season is here and it rules the roost in our house, I'm not complaining because we do love it but it can be very time consuming. Anyway, since my last post, Gunnar has gone back to school(Jan 28th)she tracked back in and so far so good. Our best friends the Walters moved to Dallas, which we are soooo missing. Todd turned 41--but he still looks as good as the day I met him:)---Thank God he has that going for him!!! HAHA Now it's Valentines Day and we continue to run full speed ahead. My post have stopped due to a cesation in naps around here. Gates has decided napping is for babies. He will occasionally nap if his life is threatened other wise he is threatening me!!! Gunnar swims 2-3 days a week so on top of the regular business that goes on here we now have to get her in and out the door along with 7 other girls. Thankfully we car pool, but on my days I have to find a place for Gates to hang out til one of us gets home, so I can fit all the girls in my car. Both kids are awesome, loving life, hating school(yes, both of them)-Gates is getting better again after getting back into the swing of things. Christmas break and track out took a toll on both kids. They were off just a bit too long, not for me but for their routine. Slowly it's getting better and then we will track out again, UGH. Tonight we are headed to cheer on the Wolfpack, and have a little Glitter Girl time with friends from church. Looking forward to all of it. Hopefully I will have a chance to just chill with my little Valentines tomorrow while Todd works the weekend away.. Until next time.....hopefully you wont have to wait soooooooooo long!?! I make no promises though:)
