Five Years Ago Today...

Five Years ago this picture was taken. Five years ago I gave birth to a little boy who would change my life forever. Kenneth Thomas was born on June 29th, 2007 at 3:03 a.m. He weighed 7lbs 11oz, 19 1/2in. long. He had jet black hair and green eyes. Boy, has he changed. All that black hair fell out and came back platinum blonde. Those sweet green eyes, turned into the prettiest blue ones you ever saw. He turned into a livley little toddler. A precoius Pre-Schooler. And now, finally a five year old boy.

My baby is no longer a baby.

I can't believe it has been five years since that picture was taken. How could time go by so slowly, yet so quickly?

Here he is getting his Third birthday pictures. I thought he was big then. He was such a little ham! Though, Three was a bit more than expected. He had a speech delay, that had just been confirmed. He was going to start Special Education Pre-School the next year to help correct it. It was a nerve wrenching time, then not knowing what was going to happen with his speech, not knowing if he was hearing everything, if it was something that I had done.. or hadn't.

He made it through just fine. You can barley even tell he had a delay. He still is gonna recieve speech therapy in school. But much improvments have been made since that picture was taken. :]

And now we're five. I could almost cry typing this. He is five. He has grown SO much in five short years. He has this crazy vibrant personality. I could NOT imagine where I would be right now without him.

He is my life <3. He is my Everything <3. He Is FIVE.

Happy Birthday to You my sweet Kenneth. I hope you have an AWESOME AMAZINGLY AMAZING DAY! & I Hope your birthday party is everything you wanted!

I Love you, K-Man. :]



Journey.

 

A 2012 Dodge Journey to be exact. Yes, I bought a new car. BUT this is my Forever car. It stays unitl i die or it does. It is my dream car! ts a crossover SUV. It gets the same gas mileage as my car did and it seats up to seven. I have the two seats in the back folded down for mor cargo space. I find it crazy to buy a SUV without third row seat! Why else would you need a SUV? lol.

Anyways, It's awesome. It rides so smooth. WAY better than my KIA ever did. The seats are so comfy! I'm just so glad I got it!

I consider it an awfully big birthday present for myself :] The payments aren't much more then they were with my KIA and I get so much more with this! I should've took pictures of the inside, But I completely forgot. I might add some in. It also has storage under the floor mats. The second row is a little tight for his carseat, so I'm going to get him a new one. Just one that is a little more compack.

But thats about it for now! :]

One year Later

Hello Strangers.
So to tell the truth I was kidnapped lazy. I completely forgot about writing on here, and that's basically it. I don't know why either, I thought I really enjoyed doing it in my spare time. Oh well, I'm back now and there is SO much to talk about. Where do I even start?

For one. My four year old is turning FIVE. He is so smart and going to be going to kindergarten this year. It is amazingly unbelievable. I thought these days would never come. I thought he would be my baby forever (he will be!) and he would never grow up. But he has been this whole time no matter how badly I don't want to realize it. He is going to "big kid" school, as he calls it. He can ride the big kid bus, which I am going to put off as long as I can! It just breaks my heart while it explodes with joy. It really is the most bittersweet feeling I have ever felt. To know that you have raised that little baby, who couldn't even hold there head up when you met, to being a rumblin' tumblin' Five year old. Craziness. This is also the first year I have not had his party planned by this time yet. All I have is a date, June 30th and a theme, Cars 2. I really need to get the ball rolling considering I only have 29 days left & 28 days until he is FIVE. I'm having a hard time deciding what to get him for a present too. I usually already have it bought by now. He is getting a bike for sure. But I also want to get him a learning pad as well. I'm stuck between the LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer and the VTech InnoTab. Anyone have a yay or nay experience with either? They seem to be neck and neck with reviews I have read.

I also decided what I want to go to college for! Who would have thought?! I want to get a bachelors degree in political science. I already applied to the college I want to go to and got applied for my finical aid. My application is still pending, I have to turn in a copy of my W2 & tax transcript. I'm actually mailing those today! I was approved for Pell, but still don't know about Hope, but hopefully I get it too! I plan on going full-time and taking classes during the summer so that I can be done in three years instead of four. But we will see how those plans go. I'm really excited to be going though, so fingers crossed everything goes as planned!

Other than that, everything has stayed the same! I was also looking for a new job a year ago, still am. lol. I haven't found anything with day shift and that pays more than I make. I feel there is really no point in quitting my current job if I may be leaving for something that is worse. Hopefully something turns up soon though. I seem to be having more good than bad luck lately, so that's defiantly a positive!

Y'all will hear from me soon, I swear!
