So Much Going On

Things are coming up quick with this one, it is hard to believe their engagement started when I found out I was pregnant with Corey, over a year and a half ago. Sheryl, Stephanie, and I went to get our dresses fitted yesterday, and Sheryl's dress is absolutely beautiful!!! The guys are going to get their tuxes fitted today and Corey and I are tagging along, I will try to post pictures later.
Chris started his PMBA last week and I think he is going to enjoy the challenge. It is a degree that requires a lot of math that he has not done in a long time, but he can do it.
Corey started a fever yesterday and I am pretty sure he has his first cold. It actually got as high as 102.1 last night, and that was pretty scary but Tylenol did the trick. Other than that he is a happy little bugger, and I am not looking foward to the day I have to go back to work, which is coming up WAY too quick.
Speacking of which, starting a new school. It is still hard for me to believe I left Oak Hill, I feel like I left a family behind. But, I feel like I am doing it for the right reason, to spend more time with Corey. He has become my #1 priority in life (that is how it is supposed to be right?). I had to think of what is best for him. I have to admit, it is not such a bad deal for me either, with a brand new school and all the perks that come along with it!!! I am excited. That is all for today, I need a shower before Corey gets up from his nap!

Our Life

I meant to start a blog when Corey was born, life got in the way. So, since I am starting one 8 months later, I am going to start my first post with a day in the life of us!!! I know everyone reading this is so excited they can hardly contain themselves!!!


Corey usually waks for the day between 7am and 8am, which means that is when I wake for the day (outside of the occasional morning Chris lets me sleep in). Corey and I usually spend the first part of the morning playing in the living room and enjoying each other's company:










After he plays for awhile and has expended some energy, we refeul with some breakfast, usually consisting of fruit, cereal, and then some cheerios so I can eat my breakfast...

After breakfast we commence the playtime (I love playing with my son, he is such a funny little fellow). But occassionally he does try to sneak away and get into the dog bowl:





Finally, it is nap time. Which simply means I get to do dishes, laundry, or sit on the computer and browse. After naptime is some more playtime... maybe even go outside and play with Chris!!!!


Around noon we enjoy a leisurely lunch,


After lunch we fill up our little pool and go for a swim (mostly to wash all the food off)



Nap time again, Corey sleeps for a while so I can get more chores done and relax a little.



After his nap (which I admittedly take with him sometimes), we have some more play time, then it's dinner (which we always sit down as a family and eat except when Chris is at school), bath, book, and bed by 7:30. Here are some fun bathtime photos:









Of course, in a couple of weeks my daily life is going to change drastically as we have to start back to work, blah!!!
