Cinnamon Rolls

Well today has been a long day, it didn't start out that way, but it sure has been that way. Gabe had a sleep over in my room last night, since Laura had one at her friends house, and he woke up at 8:30 then cuddled up with me and we slept until 9:30. It was a very nice change, I don't see it being a constant thing though, unfortunately.
Well we got up and then at 10:30 we woke up mom and made her get up, then at 11 we went and picked up Laura from her sleep over. Dad got home from a shooting match for ROTC around 11:30 and we have been cleaning and making cinnamon rolls ever since.
We started cleaning at 11:30 and didn't finish until 5, then we started making the rolls.

Here they are all done. They look yummy don't they? Well I wouldn't know if they are or not because I haven't tried them yet. I'm eating dinner first, then maybe I'll try one. We are having biscuits and sausage gravy.
Well other than cleaning and making cinnamon rolls, we have had a pretty good day. Other than the fact that I have been cranky and so had Laura, so that doesn't go well, but it was okay today because Mom was in a good mood, so that balanced everything out.
Well I have to go and give Gabe a bath for church tomorrow.

Oklahoma

Well Mom, Gabe, and I are getting ready to go to Oklahoma City tomorrow. I don't think I can handle the stress, I seem to be freaking out about little tiny things, and so is Mom, which just makes me freak out more. I think once we get on the road I'll be fine and everything will smooth out but right now I'm freaking out about everything.
Crazy brain is messing up my mind!!!
Good bye for now

Scottish Irish Fair

Today is the Scottish Irish Fair here in Texas. It is a pretty big event. Dad is there with the two kids. he is there because he has to do things with the ROTC kids so he decided to take the kids and give me and mom a break. We keep getting pictures from dad so I figured I would post them.

They sell kilts there, and dad found one that is in his size, he wanted to know if mom wanted him to buy it. LOL!

Gabe said he had to have a tattoo. So here is his first tattoo. I can't tell what it is from the picture but I think it has something to do with Iron Man, since that is his favorite super hero.

Laura's tattoo. When dad sent this pic he said Laura got ran over by puppies. LOL

The Fair is a place where most of West Texas gets together and they bring their pure bred dogs, Scottish and Irish dogs, to the fair to make moms and dads cringe, because they know that all their kids will want one. Well here is one.

Here is another one.
So the kids are having a great time at the fair with Papa and Mom and I are having a great time at home.
It is gonna be another really hot day today, around 86. It is only 1:50 right now and it is already 84 degrees here. I think today is a great day for air conditioning. I love air conditioning.

First Blog

Ok so I have never done this before, so here goes.


So mom had her surgery on Monday and we haven't been able to get out and get back to the gym, so today we decided that we would go to the duck pond and walk around it a few times. We took the kid's scooters and let them go ahead of us and wear their little butts out. They seemed to have a good time, and I'm hoping they will sleep good tonight, maybe sleep in tomorrow, but it's Saturday so dad is home so it doesn't really matter if they sleep in.
Well Mom and I will be going to Oklahoma City on Tuesday. It will be a 7 hour drive, so not too bad, I just hope that Mom can drive some of it, I can't drive a full 7 hours by myself. Well I probably could if I had too, but I don't want too.
Well I'll say how Gabe is doing.
Gabe is 4, just turned 4, and he is to smart for his britches, I'm hoping to get him into preschool in September, we'll see. He loves to go out and play in the backyard and jumping on the trampoline with the sprinkler under it. Today it has gotten up to 85 degrees so both Gabe and Laura have been outside playing in the water since we got home from the pond.
Laura has been doing awesome in school lately. Her teacher had a meeting with all of us because she was worried about Laura's reading skills, turns out Laura has dyslexic tendencies. So she is now in a special class to help her learn to read with dyslexia. It has helped her immensely.
Mom is doing great. Her hand is healing perfectly, as much as we can tell with her brace on.
Dad is also doing good.
I am also doing good, I have about 14 weeks left in school until I get my Associates in Human Services Management. I can't wait!!!!
Well that's all I have for now. I'll try to get on tomorrow and write some more.
