I have not blogged much lately, simply put...too busy! Not an original excuse...but it's the truth. Jr. Guards has been keeping us super busy. We are at the beach every morning at 8:30 a.m.! Then Owen and I head to the gym, errands, and other stuff that us mom's have to do...like laundry!
This summer has not been the relaxed lazy days I had been envisioning. It's been way more scheduled and work than I would have like. It's a new phase of life that I'm entering into with the boys getting older. It's only begun. Owen is still at home with me, I can only imagine what it will be like when both of the boys are in school...all the mom's out there who have mentioned to me over the years about the "mom taxi" well, it's all true.
It's all been worth it, especially when I get comments from Jettson like "I love guards mom!" or "this has been the best day of my life." Then I know that we are on the right track and he is having the summer he had been envisioning!
My Little Guard!
My future Little Guard.
Hubs took the boys on a "campover" at New Brighton camp ground, which is 5 minutes from our house. If you bike in you can stay at the bike campsite for $5.00 per person. I was able to drive in their stuff for them. They had so much fun. Making S'marshes (as Jett refers to S'mores), hiking around the campsite, making Jiffy popcorn, getting dirty and just being boys. I was not really invited to go on this little "boys night out." Jettson told me yesterday that he just wanted to hang out with dad because he sees me too much. I felt a little left out but I know that they do spend 99.9% of their time with me and I can only imagine how much more fun it is for them to hang out with dad.
We are always getting pics of him with his eyes closed.
See...more closed eyes...but I think he is really enjoying his "S'marsh."
Another phase I'm about to enter into...boys going on trips without mom. In one way I'm looking forward to these times...but it kinda makes me sad too, it's happening much sooner than I had expected. It almost, I repeat, ALMOST, not really...makes me want another baby...but you can't keep having babies just because they keep growing up, now can you? Think it might be time to find me a puppy ;)
Happy continued Summer. xoC

Christy, a surprising comment....almost wanting another baby?? hmmmm
You are such a creative person...I can't imagine you feeling left out or lonely for long.
People to see, places to go, politics to invade, crafts to create, etc.
You see what I mean.
Love ya, Mary
Cute, cute, cute!! It looks like you're having a fantastic summer!!
