My baby is off to school. Its official, I'm old.



BryDee has been waiting a long time for this day. She was so heart broke last year when I was being selfish and wouldn't let her go to preschool yet. I wanted to have some quality time with her because she is the baby and has always had to share me. She wanted every day to go to school and it didn't help that when she wanted to call her best friend over to play that she couldn't because the friend was at school.
She wasn't scared one bit. She was excited and marched in there like she had been doing it for years. It helps to have such a great teacher that has a way of making 18 kids feel like they are all the favorites.
I am sure there are a lot of fun stories to come from preschool. Stay tuned.

Brytan's first day of 2nd Grade


Brytan a second grader, you have got to be kidding.He was not as excited as he looks. He has spent the last few weeks of summer helping his uncle work and farm which made his days. It has been a adjustment for him and us. He will be fine at least I hope.

First Day of School for Brittany


Brittany is a 5th grader. Can you even imagine? Most days I don't feel old enough to have a 10 year old. She was so excited for school to start, that she got up on time. That doesn't happen around here very often, myself included. She is getting more independent and would not let me pick out her clothes. She did a good job all by her self. I wish her luck!

My kids are growing up. Brittany is now 10, Brytan is 7 and BryDee is 4. They are all 3 great kids. Completely different which surprises me some days that they can have the same parents and not be more alike. I suppose that is how is for most families but is still amazes me that I can love them all the same but in completely different ways and for different reasons.

We finaly have a Niece!!

Meet Brinley, she is our first niece. Bryant and I have waited 13 years to say we are Uncle Bryant and Aunt Monica to someone. My kids finally have a cousin and they are loving her. Is she not the most beautiful baby you have ever seen. We think so. Her parents are Bret and Crystal. They are pretty proud too. She is 3 months old and is 8 lbs 8 oz. Needless to say she is taking after her mother, beautiful and tiny.

It has been a long time!

I have been having a lot of friends tell me that I need to get on here and update my blog. I haven't been on here in so long that I forgot how to do it. I am amazed at all of the blogs that are out there of people I know. I have some talented friends with beautiful kids.
I never know what to say and how to say it. I know you don't believe that from me for the fact all I do is talk but when it comes to putting it on line is a lot different. Here it goes......
