Computer Boy

I caught Ty looking on the Computer the other day. I guess he was chatting with his peeps. A boy has to keep in touch with his buddies. With Ty's new found walking legs brings climbing up on things. Ty got up in chair all by himself. Sorry for the mess, but I am currently planning several Junior League events, so binders and to do lists are all over the place.



This Morning Ty and I went to Bible Study and had a great morning. Ty was wonderful in the nursery playing will all of his friends. Later this afternoon I will be cooking two appetizers for Supper Club tonight. The theme is awesome (think BIG hair). I got Ryan's outfit yesterday plus some extra items to go with my outfit. It should be a fun night. Tomorrow is another crazy day. Tomorrow night Christina and I are hosting a Junior League New Member Meeting. So much to do and so little time. It is a good thing I like a full schedule.

Just One Of Those Days

Have you ever had one of those mornings where you wish you could just go back to bed and start the day all over again? Well, that is how are morning was today. Ty was supposed to have his one year pictures today but we had to reschedule for Friday Morning. It was a good thing because we had a really rainy morning and we were running late. Therefore, I decided to go to Salado to try on some clothes for a fashion show I am in on Friday night at the Second Hand Rose. I told Stacie we would be there at 10:30 am. So, I rush to get us ready and pack a lunch a several toys to keep Ty occupied while I was trying on clothes. We were just about to head out the door and I could not find my cell phone any where. It looks like some little hands found it and walked off with it, because I found it in Ty's School Bus. Well, we are really behind at this point. As we are driving out of the neighborhood I call to check on my Mom, and she sounded great. I told here where I was headed and she said to drop Ty off and my Dad would play with him, so I turned around and unloaded Ty. I was late to my apt in Salado, but I was in and out in 30 minutes. I did get to chat with Stacie for bit before she left. I loved everything that I tried on and found 3 great out fits to model on Friday.
My Mom is doing really well. When I got there this morning she was up and walking around with her walker. She still can't do a lot but it was good to see her up. My Aunt is coming in today to spend a few days with my Mom to help her out. I am so thankful that she is doing well. I know she hates not being able to chase Ty around the house. Tomorrow night is Supper Club. We have a theme but I will wait to tell you with all the wonderful pictures. I will give you hint: We are dressing up!!

Surprise Sunday

My Sweet Grandmother (Ma) celebrated her 80th Birthday this weekend. Yesterday she had a huge Surprise Party hosted by her Children. Tyler and I went to Rockwall yesterday morning with my parents to help set up for the big party. Ma looked so beautiful and boy was she surprised to see us all. I had a great time visiting with all of my Cousins and trying to keep us with Ty. There were two dogs at the party so Tyler wanted to go where ever the dogs were going and as you can see from the pictures he did! What a very special day with Family.
Ty also wanted to wear the crown.

Looking at the Balloons on Ma's throne. Ty also LOVES balloons.

Check out our little walker!


Well, My Mom went in this Morning for her foot surgery and I have not heard anything yet. I pray that all goes well. It will be hard having my Mom out of commission for while. I know Ty will miss not having his Ghee chase after him. We love you Mom!!
Tyler and I spent the Morning with Lindsay, Hudson, Whitney, and Sadie. It was fun chatting and watching the kids play when I was not following Ty around Lindsay's house. He is so fast! It helped keep my mind off my Mom and her surgery. Thanks for hosting Lindsay. The rest of our week is filled with fun activities and Ty's one year photo shoot! I am already planning our Christmas cards....

Special Saturday

Ty had a very special Saturday with Ghee at the Park! Notice he has on a UMHB Jersey! Go CRU!! That is where I graduated from, my Mom too!









We had another beautiful day so I thought I would take Ty to one of our favorite places in Temple, Whistle Stop Playground. Ghee even came with us. Since my Mom is having foot surgery on Monday Morning she decided she wanted to go play with Ty, because she does not know when she will be able to go out their with him. It might be a while. We had a great morning playing at the park and then we stopped at Chik-Fil A to pick up some lunch.
Ryan got home from class right before Ty was heading to bed so that put a big smile on Ty's face. Tyler and I are heading to Rockwall tomorrow morning to surprise my Grandmother for her 80th Birthday! We can't wait.

Tagged!

I was Tagged by my sweet friend Lauren. I miss you Lauren. I wish you were still in Temple.

RULES:
*Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog
*Share seven random and/or weird facts about yourself
*Tag seven other people at the end of your post and link to their blogs
*Let each person know they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog

1. I was asked to be the Secretary for the Westphalia PTO and I went to one meeting and decided that it was way too much to take on right now with all the other things I am involved in. So I am a PTO drop-out! However, when Ty is in school I would love to be the PTO President.

2. I love things to match. Last Christmas I ordered new Christmas Stockings from Pottery Barn Kids for the three of us, and I bought extras for when we have more kids, so they will all match. All I have to do is get their name monogrammed on it.

3. One place I want to go is New York during Christmas. It seems strange that I lived their and I was even in Times Square on New Years Eve to watch the ball drop but I have never seen it all decorated for Christmas.

4. I can't wait for Ty to be old enough to help out with all the chores around the house.

5. I LOVE living in Temple. I used to want to get out of here but not anymore. I love the friends I have, Junior League, Bible Study, Our Church, Supper Club, my parents living next door. You name it I love it. I know Ryan's job could take us out of here on day but I hope it is not for a long time!! Plus I love the friends that TY has here, too.

6. I love a quiet house. I used to leave to TV on during Ty's nap time but not any more. Sometimes I even turn my phone off! With Ty only taking on nap a day I need some peace and quiet. I love listening to Ty but every Stay at Home Mom needs some time to herself.

7. I wish Ryan was home more often. I know he is working so hard and getting his Doctorate to better himself and be able to provide a great life for Ty and I. We just miss him around the house at times and Ty adores his Daddy. However, we get him the whole week of Thanksgiving. School is out the week of Thanksgiving and he wont have to go to College Station for class! Whoop:) We love you Ryan!!

I will tag: Heather, Sally, Rachel, Laura, Sara, Melissa, and Mary Beth. Please try and do it. It did not take long at all.

Side Walk Chalk 101







Yesterday afternoon we decided to pick side walk chalk for our craft! I will say it was not as messy as finger painting. Of course Ty tried to eat it. Everything still goes in the mouth. It is hard to believe that Ty has 16 teeth in that mouth of his and I think we are working on more.
The side walk activity was cut short once Ty found the water hose and got soaked. All good things must come to an end!
