What's been going on since My Birthday. Well....

Preston said this morning that he didn't want to go to school and I said, well I have to go to work to get money so I can buy us a new "bigger" car.. As the boys would say and that seemed sufficient enough. We recently rented a Ford Expedition to our family reunion trip and then another crossover SUV for the trip to Houston and now , all they talk about is that they want mommy to drive a 'big' car now. :( I think they like the sitting up high part, i dunno.. Unfortunately, mommy and daddy are still trying to get their finances in order so, that won't be happening until Dec or late February. Will see.

So the boys got these new bunk beds about a month ago, and yes, they are still waking up in the middle of the night and coming to find me and hubby.. Well last night both of them stayed in their beds the WHOLE night. This has only happened 1 other time, so when I went to get Preston out of the bed, he told me "no". LOL!! I ignored that, picked him up, put him on the couch where Chase was(I had gotten Chase first) and when to the kitchen to finished their pancakes and orange juice. All of a sudden I hear Preston "fake crying/whining", he gets up and walks backs into his room and gets in his bed. And all is quiet. It was the funniest thing to see him do that b/c he was walking like he was mad he was up there and rather be in bed! LOL!!

So I just fed him his breakfast in bed and then he got up after that. Preston is very strong willed...

To be continued...

We had a relaxing weekend.. You know Dallas is "ground zero" for the West Nile Virus. I heard the other day on World News Tonight. I was like "ground zero!" LOL!!  So people aren't like NOT doing outdoor activities or anything, but its kind of crazy that the Dallas area has SO many cases.. I have to say, I did go buy some OFF for the kids yesterday before they went bike riding... :)

I straightened up the "new" guest room since the boys took over the existing one.  Still need some more furniture pieces and some more organization... The boys are now playing the "Wii" gaming system. They like the sport games..

We got a DOWN POUR of rain FInaly this weekend, so that was nice and our temps this week will all be below 100. It's nice to have 95 degree heat. Makes a difference.

A new outlet mall just opened this past weekend in time for "Tax Free Weekend" here in Texas.. They have everything I every wanted! :) I bought me a cute purple Kate Spade wallet with some birthday money I hadn't used yet. I am in Love with it. So maybe I'll get a purse to match.. One day..


Work is getting busy.... The boys start a new school next Monday. Same Daycare, just different location. This one is pretty much in my neighborhood and right down the street where the boys will be going to Elementary school.. So it all just works out. Hopefully. Tonight is meet the teacher night. I'm excited and I hope the boys will be excited too! I kind of mentioned it this weekend and this morning. Maybe once they see it, they will understand what's going on...
