A MOTHER'S LOVE .....

This will be my first time EVER away from my children.... They may drive me nuts but their MINE.... I don't know how I'm gonna get through this weekend. Ugh! It just drives me nuts...."why did I sign up for this bellydance workshop!" I thought I was going to be real machona or fregona, hmmm, just pure talk... This time I can't walk the walk!!! Am I being a baby? It just hurts me to think of it.... Should I just lose out on the money? I'm driving myself nuts.... Parts of me WANT to go and parts just tell me that I'm being selfish!!! I just need to pray and leave my children in Lords hands. I have responsible people who are taking care of them for me and that love them.... Please dear God watch over my babies.... :-( This is no fun..............

Aiden's first haircut!!!

We finally took the "wero" to get his first hair cut Saturday, May 10, 2008; he was 22 months and 3 days old!!! The place we took him gave him a "My First Haircut Certificate" super cute with a little bag that contained his first curl. I look at the pics and it looks like they're cutting a little girls hair, funny!!!

Was it Jason's graduation party or ours... hee.. hee...

We had a blast at Jason's graduation party! Jason is the son of my friend/coworker Pat :D Her baby is graduating this year... tear ;-( Since things are kinda crazy where we work we (Rachey, Emy, Adri,Mary & I) figured to have our pre-Chrismtas party or our closing party!! hee... hee... (sooooooo not funny, RIGHT!) But we had a blast!!! Here are some pics.... Oh... the following morning Big Boy DJ called talking smack and I told him "they shouldn't leave unattended bottles with deprived women... LOL"

We're goin green!!!

I had been hearing that the grocery stores were working on doing away with the plastic bags meaning that no matter what people were gonna have to purchase these cool new bags. We did! We looked like those people in the movies coming home with cloth bags! Woohoo!!! I hardly shop at HEB so I don't know what color their bags are but the bags at Wallyworld are black ~ they look so cool... Eventually I'm gonna have to buy like 10 bags.... we always come home with more than one bag!!!

Mommy's little helper!

I just had to share.... Here is Aaron helping mommy cut the front lawn. He was excited to use the lawn mower by himself. He's excited NOW we'll just wait and see how long it lasts! In a couple of years I can see myself after him to cut the grass! LOL ~ kids :D

My Boss :-(

Today I received very sad news... my boss of almost 6 years, Mr. Miller, informed me that he was resigning; his last day is June 4th. I have much respect for this man. He's kind, compassionate, understanding, SMART AS HELL, an AWESOME boss and will be truly missed by his staff. I don't think there's another Mr. Miller in the world. When you've worked at place for a long time you become like family. I wish him and his family the very best on their new journey. I hope, no let me rephrase that, I KNOW he won't forget us, how could he :D! He'll have many stories to share with his new staff ~ hopefully good stories :D I'll miss you Mr. Miller & Kelly!

My baby started daycare!!!

Today was Aiden Joseph's first day at daycare/school. Even though I've been down this path before IT DOESN'T GET ANY EASIER :-( A co-worker informed me of the daycare where she takes her little boy; it's in San Benito ~ Marie's Daycare. She is an ex-LVN (retired) of more than 15 or 17 years and follows a school curriculum; which I thought was kind of neat. My two older boys also went to daycare/school when they were younger and as I said before it doesn't get any easier especially when it's you last baby. Aaron started when he was 18 mths at St. Teresa Catholic School and Alec started at 10 mths at Spirit of Joy. They were both very good places. Aiden just began and he's 22 mths ~ he started late I guess cuz he's the BABY!!! I've been fortunate to have my mother-in-law watch them whenever I need her but I was time for him to interact with other toddlers. My sisters also put their children which gives me a piece of mind that he's playing with his little cousins. Ms. Garcia seems like a very nice lady ~ I just hope that our kids don't drive her nuts :-)
