The news

So, now that I've officially talked to my boss about it, I can share with everyone else! We've been extremely blessed because Brian has finally been able to find a job. It's a full time job at Idaho Falls Health and Rehab. He will be working at nights so he can go to school during the day. Because of this wonderful blessing, starting in January I can start working PRN, which means I'll only be working 2 days A MONTH!!!! As exciting as that is, and how much I'll enjoy being at home with Landen, I love my job and I love the people I work with! Work is kinda my break from being "mommy", and I get to have more socializing and feel like a productive WOMAN again, and not just a worn out mommy. I love spending time with Landen, but I'm really going to miss spending time with my buddies at work...not that I'm never going to see them again, just not as often! This is such a wonderful blessing though, and we're so lucky to be able to do this at this time. Brian's going to be working his buns off, but I'm so proud of him! He feels like he's finally able to do his "job" and provide for his family. So, my days of being a sugar mamma are officially over...not too sad about it, cause now I've got a sugar daddy ;)

5 years ago today...

We look like such babies!!!! I love this man, we've been through so much together and although some days the only thing we can agree on is Landen, there's no one I would rather fight with more than my "Bri-Bri". He's such a kind and loving man, you'd think twice about him being a rough tough military man...oops let the cat out of the bag. There's definitely no one better for me. Love you sweetheart and cheers to an eternity!

OH, AND HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Dog boy

So I'm convinced that my dog has more influence on Landen than I do. You will frequently find him trying to eat the dog's food if we leave it unattended, he loves playing with BJ's toys and will even try to imitate how BJ eats his food if a plate or bowl is left on the ground. His most recent fascination is the dog door and I finally caught him in the act with the camera...I really hope he doesn't continue this once the snow really starts piling up.

Oops, mom caught me!
Oh well, I'm going out anyway!

Found

Finally, here are some pictures from Halloween week. In case you were wondering I found the camera cord under a pile of newspapers on the desk...time to go to the recycling bin!!!

BJ joining the pumpkin carving fun
Landen's favorite and least favorite part was the "guts" of the pumpkin. He kept putting his hand in then pulling it back out as quickly as possible. Cracked me up!

Let's put the scooper in there!

Brian and I went to an adult Halloween on the 30th. It was so fun to spend time with a bunch of adults and not have to worry about chasing a kid around the whole time. Brian found a wrestling buddy while we were there.

Precious

I'm supposed to be a Vampiress, in case you were wondering

Putting Landen's shoes on to go to "Boo at the Zoo"

You can't really see it, but a monkey is right up against the glass staring at Landen. Landen loved it!

He loved all the lights and music.

Ahh, cute family!

Lost!!!!!

So, I've lost my camera cord, so it could be awhile before I can update about Halloween week, and believe me there's some cute pictures on there! Here's a clue: elephant....
