Sweet Moments and Daddys Potty Mouth

Last night we put Kyle to bed and little ears fighting sleep overheard Daddy saying a potty word. Kyle came out of his room and told Daddy," I heard what you said, you said sh...it". Kyle separates the 2 parts so that he isn't saying it. Pete apologized and gave Kyle a dollar as his penalty for using a naughty word. Pete then told Kyle that if he heard Daddy say it again that he would give Kyle another dollar.
Later that night, at 11:30, Pete and I were climbing into bed and Kyle was already in there and asleep. Looking at Kyle I told Pete that I was so happy we had Kyle and that I just adored him. Kyle then out of no where sounding groggy says,"Mommy your my best." I was so surprised and we started telling each other how much we loved one another and the whole time Kyle had his eye closed and sounded as though he was in between being awake and asleep. THEN Kyle opens his eyes and says very sternly to Daddy,"Oh and by the way I heard you say sh..it and you owe me a dollar!" I was cracking up. Daddy got caught again. First thing this morning Kyle was looking for his other dollar.

All caught up

SO I think that is about it. I know there is more but I guess those are the highlights of our crazy life! Hope you enjoy the updates!!!

College Bound

On Tuesday I went and signed up for full-time College classes. I am pretty excited to be going back to school. School starts in January and I am going to start working on my Associates in Accounting. I am ready mentally and emotionally to get this done. With the economy the way it is I am so scared and I need to do this for myself and my Family. I will be taking 4 classes, 3 online and 1 in an actual class setting. I am just ready to rock this out!!!

Getting ready for Christmas

This year has been a little hard for me to get in the mood. I just realized last night that Christmas is only one week away..yikes. We have our decorations up but it just doesn't feel like Christmas this year. I am trying my best to get it together though. Kyle had his Christmas concert the other night. The kids did very well but my Son did not seem to have any interest in singing with the group. He just kind of stood up there with a bored look on his face, leave it to Kyle. He knew all of the songs and had been practicing but just didn't do it, oh well it was still cute. We have visited with Santa which again Kyle doesn't have much interest in. Kyle said that he didn't even want to see Santa because it wasn't the real Santa. I made him take a picture with Santa though but he made it very clear he was NOT going to sit in "the guys" lap. We made gingerbread cookies the other night and made them into ornaments for the tree. We have the best smelling fake tree you will ever smell :). He had a lot of fun doing it. Kyle says that as soon as Christmas is over he is eating the tree...yuck. Kyle did make 2 cookies into doggie bones for our dogs which surprisingly the dogs loved them.

Going back to Halloween

Halloween was a lot of fun. Kyle dressed up as Ironman his new favorite Super Hero. He really took on the Ironman character, which Kyle loves to do. He went to his Gammy and Papas house to Trick or Treat and then went on to Mana and Pawpaws house to do a little Trick or Treating at their house. After that Kyle had suckered his Mana and Pawpaw into letting him stay Friday and Saturday night at their house....push overs :). Since Kyle was staying the night at Mana and Pawpaws Pete and I went to an adult Halloween party. We had a ton of fun. Pete dressed up in a zoot suit and looked quite handsome and I dressed up as a Playboy Bunny, G Rated, since that was the theme of the party so Pete and I were Bunny and Clyde...haha. Yeah I know it is cheesy. It was fun though.

Kyle and School

I can't even begin to tell you how happy and proud of Kyle I am. He just seems to amaze me everyday. Kyles school is in my opinion one of the top schools in Maricopa and pretty great compared to all of the other schools across the valley. It may not be the most organized school but the classroom is organized and that is really what matters. Everyday Kyle is telling me something new that he has learned and not just the basic knowledge a Kindergartner has but it is knowledge beyond his grade level. For example the other day we were driving past a Christmas tree lot and I said, " OH that is such a pretty Christmas tree!" Kyle responds back, " I am going to make it plural now and say those are pretty Christmas trees." I was so shocked and I asked him if he could tell me what nouns and verbs were and he was right on with his answers. I know kids learn this stuff but not half way through their first year of Kindergarten! It blows my mind what he is learning. Kyle was on the Honor Roll for his first semester and that makes me so happy. He is also reading now, I have a feeling he could read a couple of months ago but didn't let on that he could, which is not uncommon for Kyle to do. All in all Kyle is doing great in school and Pete and I are sooooo very proud of him!

Afraid this would happen

Okay so when I started this blog I had good intentions of keeping it up to date but I guess with life being so busy and unpredictable I just haven't. I feel bad because so much has been going on over the past couple of months. Today is a day of catch up.
