BOO!

Did I scare you? :)



Hiiiiiiiii! I know, feel free to stone me... I have been a baaaaaad baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad blogger. No excuses except that I detest my slow as molasses computer and it does nothing but give me constant fits and I am always on the verge of throwing it out the window at any given time. Who really wants to blog in that state of mind? Not me. I would come across as just how cranky I am feeling and I don't think that's the type of person I would like to be perceived as. As you can see I had fun playing with a new blogger template. Maybe one day I will do up a new banner. I am NOT promising anything though. I have blogged a few times on my business website so feel free to take a peek over there!

Lots going on with us.

Brandon just passed his Officer in Charge Review board!!! A big congrats to him. He deserved it! He studied his hiney off for the past couple of months and he really knows his stuff so I am one proud Coastie wife!!

Garrett is in his last couple of months of VPK and doing very well. He is way too smart and I am in constant awe of the things he knows. Surely I didn't know about A-B patterns or A-B-C patterns at 4 years old. Or "reebersible" (reversible) change. He will graduate on June 4th. Ceremony will be held that day and everyone is invited! Its going to be the cutest thing ever! I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that he will be in Kindergarten next fall. When did become old enough for that? He is playing Tee Ball and having a good time. Tee ball is a hoot. Three, Four, and Five year olds on an itty bitty ball field with a big scoreboard. Very cute. It's an experience all of its own. One kid decides they need to use the potty and you can bet that half of our team will decide the same thing.

Avery is growing growing growing. She is talking up a storm and is one willful little girl. We had an incident last week where she got ahold of a bottle of meds which landed us in the ER for four hours while they monitored her. She never actually ingested any of it thank goodness but we had no way of knowing that without blood work and a urinalysis. I had to wrestle her to keep the heart monitors on her and it took 4 of us to hold her down while they drew blood. She is soooo stinkin' strong. She has turned into a sweet cuddler which I am soaking up. Although her cuddles usually come in short spurts because she just can't sit still long enough. She has places to go, things to do, and people to see! She adores her big bubba and is his little mockingbird. She wants to do whatever Garrett is doing, Eat and drink the same things, Sing the same songs, Read the same book, Color on the same paper... you get the idea. Its pretty cute but it has made for many the sibling battle. She is currently singing "We will wock you... tttt tttt tttttt" which her brother taught her. Its pretty cute to hear. One day I will get it on video. She always stops performing once I pull out the camera.

Meet Buoy. The newest addition to the Henderson household. He is over twice this size now but these are the only ones I have converted to show you all so far. He is an English Bulldog. Brandon's dream dog. The kids have fallen in love with him and I must say he is a pretty good puppy minus all the chewing and biting on our feet. He lets the kids do anything to/with him. He is rowdy like you wouldn't believe sometimes! He just weighed in today at the vet at 21.6 lbs. quite the chunker now.



Just a few little updates from us. I am not making any promises about anything with this post. Maybe things might change if I just bite my tongue. Hope all is well with you and yours! I will leave you with a little tip of the day, week, month, wellllll... YEAR to date :)

RSS FEED READERS

Do you all know about RSS feed readers? They are pretty slick! You can "subscribe" to blogs and your reader will notify you when one of the blogs on your feed has updated. There are many out there. I use one called Feed Demon. My friend Jeanine recommended it to me and I have been using it for months. Its great and it has saved me so much time. I follow way too many blogs and this way I can in one glance see who has new updates and only read those. Instead of blog stalking so many during the day. So if you were inclined to find yourself an rss feed reader be sure to hit the subscribe icon in your browser and add us!
