I'm Back

Yes, I have been away for nearly a year but I'm back once again and do not plan on leaving any of you!

While I was gone we purchased a new home for our family:  

We had been trying to figure out a way to do this for a long time and in April we had our chance and we took it! It's been a crazy ride since then, This home was a foreclosure and needed a lot of love. Here are the photos from when we first got it.

So far we have done quite a bit of work but this summer we plan on doing a lot more and when that work is completed I will gladly share the photos from that.
We also had a lot going on in July, I got a second job and we celebrated my oldest son's 4th birthday in the new house despite the fact we didn't have anything in it really. With the second job I hardly was home and it was worst these last 2 months. So December 13th was my last day on the job for one of them, I am now only working 2 days a week and hope to scrap a lot more than i have been.
My boys needed me home more and i needed to be out of the house less so since i'll still be making the same amount I went with it.

Ok now onto a few other things.

My adorable oldest son was playing at my mom's and found his uncles safety glasses and decided to put them on, just look at this cute photo i took!

We had his birthday last month just after his actual birthday and here are some photos of the grand affair! lol

Daddy sat with him when we sang happy birthday but he was crying because he wanted to play with the toy on his cake..

Here is his cake,

Finally he got to play with the toy on his cake! Yep that's Thomas!!!

After cake we did presents and here he was handing daddy a few toys and practically drooling trying to get daddy to open them for him. Of course daddy did so happily!

I can't believe my little boy is 3! I can remember so much about him being born and how amazing it was. The best feeling of all was finally holding him after waiting for so long. 

Here is another photo of my 3 year old, laying on the walk way at my moms watching her giant African Spur-Thigh Tortoise. He loves that thing. If you missed it before i spoke about here in another blog post a while back, here is where you can find that post.
