Here I am...

I thought I was going to get so much better at posting some blogs with updates and I think I have just proven that I was way wrong. It was almost March the last time I blogged and now it is almost May. Where in the world does the time go?

Well, we are in the spring of things... Luke finally got called back to work and that is fantastic. Now if the work load would just increase. Unemployment is no fun, but it is worse when you put in a full week and make less than unemployment, that is even more depressing. So, say your prayers that things turn around. :) Things for me at work are slow as well. It makes for some extremely long days, but I know I still have a job and it isn't going anywhere and I am thankful for that.

We have begun the good old summer projects list around home. We have purchased a new front door and we are in the process of painting that and getting that all up and make the house look a little better. Starting to work on the yard and getting the garden planted. Landon is soooo excited about the garden. He has been learning about planting seeds and watching the grow. For instance, his sunflower seed that was planted at school, and we have it sitting on our counter by the window and it is growing pretty rapidly, he gets sooooo excited when he sees the sprout sticking out of the glass. He wants to water it daily, he does not get the concept of too much water, so I have to pretend that it is getting water every day. Oh to be that innocent and excited over something so simple. I would kill for those days.

Landon never ceases to amaze us on a daily basis. He is really starting to enjoy "Mom and Dad" music meaning country. He picks up the lyrics so fast, it is just funny. He makes up his own names for the songs and wants to hear them immediately. Not grasping the concept of we are not sure when we are going to hear it on the radio. His favorite has been Zac Brown Band - Chicken Fried, Jason Aldean - She's Country, Brooks and Dunn - Cowgirls Don't Cry, and his all time favorite is Joey & Rory - Cheater, Cheater! Something to be so proud of.

Landon got a new bed and for the first time ever he has been sleeping in his bed nightly all night. He might wake up for some water or to be covered up again, but otherwise it has been a success. Yippee.

Our summer is gearing up. May comes the first parade of the summer in Woodville, and Landon is very excited about that as after the parade he gets to go to the tent and listen to music and dance away. And Memorial day we have the Twins/Brewer game at the Dome. Landon loves that. Then June comes birthdays and Luke and I are heading to Country Fest. That will be an adventure. July as of this point, is pretty low key, and then August is Milwaukee for a brewer game and the big boy turns 4. Man, then summer is over. Hopefully I will post more frequently now and get some more pictures updated.
