It's Summer Baby

Yes it is! Which essentially means that we hibernate mid-day and that I have a hard time keeping track of what day it is. We also stay up way too late, sleep in, smell like sunscreen and nap. And we wear sandals everyday... that might be significant if I didn't wear them everyday...even in January.

My blogging hiatus is to be blamed on my lack of schedule and new job...not on the lack of adventures.

Big moments have been Kaya turning three.

 Kaya's big birthday wishes were for princess plates and Mr. Steve to sing her favorite song. Hoping she always be this easy to please...




But everyday has been an adventure. Yep, I started a new job. Date night with a great new dress. A few trips to the pool. A couple days away with Danielle in Houston. Family movie night under the stars. And tomorrow-Alaina turns nine!

Next week I will spend my days and nights at the hottest place on earth. Preteen Camp...With my daughter, who in less then 12 hours will be a preteen. As I type that I am overwhelmed with how that is 16 ways weird and wonderful at the same time. Right now I am hyping myself up with promises of coming home thinner and with a tan. Hottest place on earth.

But I know, that I know it's week I won't ever forget. Heat that you can see bouncing off the ground, miles of walking, camp spaghetti, and vinyl mattresses will be things I won't remember.

A week that is completly focused on my daughter experiencing Jesus more and more-that I won't forget. And being the kind of mom that doesn't miss a moment of it- that is the kind I want to be.
