It was a pirate halloween

Well it happened...it had to happen...it was inevitable...and I could not care less. I turned 30 on Thursday and it was non-eventful. I have heard that some women have cried for week prior and after their big 3-0 and after turning it - I do not see why. Whatever. Onto bigger and better topics!

THAYER!!!!! His first adventure in trick or treating is tonight and i can't wait! We have a couple of the neighbors houses that we plan our little pirate to go to. Pictures will be posted soon. I know I always promise that and trust me, this time, I will do it! You have to see how cute he is. I will also post pictures from this years pumpkin patch!

I was having fun on the internet...the internet is fun!

I have a couple pictures! Hooray for me!

I was looking at my friend Jenny's blog and it reminded me that we need to do a pumpkin patch trip - I guess I kinda forgot b/c it is still averaging 90 degrees down here in this cesspool. But, we need to do a pumpkin patch run and get ready for Halloween. Speaking of, we tried on Thayer's costume on Saturday and he is so cute I can't stand it! I think that I will wait until the 31st to post pictures, so you will have to wait!

Rambling.

Gosh, how time totally flies. I have been at Coolhires for about 1.5 months, Thayer is almost 15 months old, and I am already prepping for Christmas! I am really not even thinking about the fact that I turn 30 in *gulp* 23 days....shit...I guess it will hit me a bit harder closer to the date. I need to try on Thayer's costume and make sure it fits before it is too late and we are forced to buy an over priced one from the Halloween store - not that I wouldn't! I also need to finish altering my costume to make a a bit more feminine. I am taking a man costume and making it a bit sexier, but still fresh and piratey. On the sewing note, I really need to fix Chris' back back for work. Sigh. On another sewing note, a new friend at my at the office (Christine) is starting to sew and it is so fun to see someone excited for it like I was. She had a birthday recently and I got her a couple of easy patterns - she is gonna be super fresh in the apron and dresses (maybe even the pant suit)! I can't wait to help her!
Chris just got back from Vegas (for work) and it reminded me how hard it must be to be a single mom and so happy that I will never have to do that. Zonks...it was a very long 5.5 days! While he was gone Thayer got his first pair of Stride Rites and some PJs - which it took me forever to find PJs for his age for some reason. Target had hidden them from me....foosh! I need to go back closer to Christmas and find some xmas PJs, b/c you can't stay up for Santa in non-xmas PJs. Shit, what kinda mom would that make me! haha. Thayer starts a new school that is closer to Chris and my work locals so hopefully my commute will go from 1.5 hours one way to 1 - I could totally deal with 1 hour one way.
It totally sounds like I was just bitching, but please note - perfectly happy. I have some excellent pics to post once I load them...stay tuned!

Well Family and Friends,

I know it has been a while, but the new job really does not allow for a lot of time to mess around on the internet and post to the blog. I actually have to work to earn my keep, and you know that I am loving it.

Thayer has been working on a little something for you - enjoy!!!

I know, I know...I need pictures posted. I am a bad bad mom. But a quick update on little man. List of words: thank you, potato, golf ball, cup, bottle (ba ba), more...we are working on "please" and of course; mama, dada and grandpa. We are still working on Osiris, Aunt and Grandma.

Excellent: FIRST STEPS were taken earlier this week. So so fun...I think that we are in trouble now!

More to come later and me hopes some pictures too!

Hugs to all!
