SOMETIMES...WELL LET ME RE-PHRASE THAT...A LOT OF TIMES HAVING TWO KIDS IS HARD! TRYING TO GIVE EACH OF THEM THE ATTENTION THEY NEED IS A LIL DIFFICULT ESPECIALLY WHEN GENE IS WORKING A LOT AND ITS ONLY ME. MY KIDS STRETCH ME OUT AS FAR AS THEY CAN. I SOMETIMES THINK THEY THINK ITS A GAME. EVERY TIME I'M HOLDING JAYCIE TRYING TO GET HER TO SLEEP SO THAT I CAN GO PLAY WITH CARTER, HE COMES IN THE ROOM AND IS CRYING AND WHINING WANTING ME TO COME NOW! HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT I
F HE GIVES ME JUST 5 MINUTES HE CAN HAVE ME TO HIMSELF FOR 45 MINUTES WHILE HIS SISTER SLEEPS. BUT INSTEAD HE COMES AND STARTS SCREAMING LOUDER AND WANTING ME MORE AND MORE. WHAT DO YOU DO IN A MOMENT LIKE THAT. WELL SOMETIMES I SHUT THE DOOR AND CONTINUE TO GET JAE ASLEEP WHILE CARTER STANDS AT THE DOOR, SOMETIMES I GO AHEAD AND GIVE INTO HIM AND TRY TO SATISFY HIM FOR A LIL WHILE SO I CAN GO BACK TO JAE, OTHER TIMES I JUST SIT AND PRAY GOD HELPS ME GET THROUGH THAT 
DAY! PATIENTS BONNIE PATIENTS!!! I THRIVE FOR THE DAYS GENE IS HOME WITH ME TO HELP ME THOSE FIVE MINUTES I NEED. GENE AND I ARE A TEAM. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER. WE KNOW IT TAKES A LOT OF DEDICATION AND SACRIFICING FOR THESE TWO PRECIOUS CHILDREN THAT WE HAVE! WE KNOW THAT EXTRA 5 MINUTES OF SLEEP IS A LUXURY NOW! WE KNOW IF WE GIVE A LITTLE THEN MAYBE THE NEXT TIME WE CAN TAKE A LITTLE AND THE OTHER WILL PICK UP THE SLACK. I CAN HONESTLY SAY WE TRY TO GIVE 100% EVERYDAY TO EACH OTHER AND OUR KIDS!
THIS PAST WEEK AS YOU KNOW, GENE AND I AND CARTER WENT TO JACKSON, MS FOR HIS WORK FIRE TRAINING! I THINK I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION TO TAKE CARTER AND LEAVE JAYCIE. CARTER A
ND I REALLY NEEDED THAT ONE ON ONE TIME TOGETHER. JAYCIE GETS A LOT OF MY TIME NOW SO FOR HIM TO GET HIS OWN TIME 100% OF HIS MOMMY 24/7 FOR 3 DAYS WAS HEAVEN FOR HIM. AND I NEEDED THAT LUXURY OF REMEMBERING WHAT HAVING ONLY ONE KID FELT LIKE AGAIN AND JAYCIE NEEDED HER ONE ON ONE TIME WITH HER GRAMS FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. DONT GET ME WRONG, WE SURE DID MISS HER AND WERE SO READY TO GET HOME TO HER. CARTER TALKED ABOUT HIS SISSY THE WHOLE TIME. EVERY TIME WE SAW SOMETHING PINK OR THAT HE KNEW WOULD BE FOR HER HE WAS SAYING JAYCIE JAYCIE. SO GENE HAD TO GO TO THAT TRAINING PRETTY MUCH ALL DAY EVERYD
AY SO CARTER AND I GOT TO HAVE A LITTLE FUN. TUESDAY WHEN WE GOT THERE WE TOOK A 3 HOUR NAP TOGETHER. YEA, THAT'S RIGHT...3 HOURS! I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT! IT WAS SOOOO NICE AND VERY MUCH NEEDED!!! SO WHEN WE WOKE UP WE KNEW DADDY WOULD BE HOME IN AN HOUR OR SO. SO WE DECIDED TO GO TO BASS PRO. THEY HAVE THIS HUMONGOUS BASS PRO 2 SECONDS FROM OUR HOTEL. YEA OUR HOTEL AND BASS PRO ARE ON THE SAME ROAD! SO GUESS WHERE WE WENT 8 TIMES IN 3 DAYS. YEP!!! IT KEPT CARTER ENTERTAINED. IT HAS A HUGE WATERFALL AND LOTS OF FISH IN THIS BIG GLASS TANK. OH AND ANIMALS EVERYWHERE! CARTER WAS VERY IMPRESSED!!
SO GUESS WHAT...MOMMY WAS HAPPY TO BE THERE TOO!!! THAT NIGHT, GENES MANAGER TOOK US ALL OUT TO EAT. O'CHARLEYS WAS THE PLACE OF PICK THAT NIGHT! YUMMY ROLLS...MY FAVORITE!!! WEDNESDAY CARTER AND I WERE UP AND AT THE MALL BY 9:30. OH IT WAS HEAVEN FOR ME! ALL THE GREAT STORES I LOVE. THEY HAD LOTS OF THOSE RIDES FOR CARTER TO RIDE ON SO THAT KEPT HIM HAPPY. I WOULD SHOP A LIL AND THEN TAKE HIM TO RIDE THEN SHOP A LIL MORE AND THEN TAKE HIM TO RIDE AGAIN. YEA I THINK ABOUT $10 WORTH OF QUARTERS WE
NT INTO THOSE STUPID THINGS THAT NOW COST 75 CENTS TO RIDE. CRAZY. WHAT HAPPEN TO ONLY HAVING TO DIG OUT TWO QUARTERS? ANYWAY...AFTER SPENDING HALF THE DAY AT THE MALL AND PROBABLY SPENDING THE MONEY MY HUSBAND MADE THAT DAY, CARTER AND I DECIDED TO GO CHECK OUT THE NATURAL SCIENCE MUSEUM. AWESOME! SO GLAD WE WENT! IT WAS SO AMAZING. OH AND THERE WAS ONLY LIKE 10 OTHER PEOPLE IN THE WHOLE MUSEUM WHILE WE WERE THERE SO WE PICKED THE PERFECT DAY AND TIME TO GO. CARTER GOT TO RUN AROUND AND CLIMB ON THINGS AND ALL SORTS OF STUFF. THERE WAS A MINI AQUARIUM ALSO SO HE WAS AMAZED! OH AND THERE WAS THIS HUGE PARK RIGHT BESIDE THE MUSEUM SO WE WENT AND SPENT AN HOUR PLAYING THERE ALSO. 
WE HAD A BLAST BUT WERE PRETTY TIRED. SO WE WENT BACK TO THE HOTEL AND GENE WAS COMING IN RIGHT BEHIND US. WE ALL TOOK A NAP AND THEN GOT READY TO GO OUT FOR DINNER. GUESS WHAT...GENES MANAGER TOOK US OUT AGAIN THAT NIGHT. WE WENT TO GENE'S FAVORITE PLACE THERE...THE STEAM ROOM GRILL. OH IT WAS SO GOOD TOO! BIG FAT STEAK THAT YOU COULD CUT WITH A FORK! AWESOME IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF! SO THURSDAY WE GOT UP AND HAD TO CHECK OUT OF THE HOTEL AND WAIT ON GENE TO GET OUT OF SCHOOL WHICH WAS AT 11 ! SO WE JUST WENT TO TARGET AND THEN WAITED IN THE PARKING LOT FOR A MINUTE ON GENE. WE HEADED STRAIGHT OUT AS SOON AS GENE GOT IN THE TRUCK. WE WERE SO READY TO GET HOME!
GETTING AWAY IS ALWAYS FUN BUT GETTING HOME IS ALWAYS SO NICE! SO NEEDLESS TO SAY WE HAD A GREAT TRIP TOGETHER BUT WE WERE VERY HAPPY TO GET HOME TO SEE OUR BABY GIRL. AND NO SHE WAS NOT WALKING WHEN WE GOT HOME! LOL !
SO THIS WEEKEND ME MY MOM AND EMILY AND THE KIDS WENT TO REELFOOT TO THE CRAFT FAIR. PERFECT WEATHER AND SO MUCH FUN. EXCEPT THE MILLION OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT WERE THERE. IT WAS VERY CROWDED THIS YEAR. BUT WE HAD A GREAT TIME! SATURDAY NIGHT WE HAD A FOOTBALL PARTY OVER HERE. SEE MY WHOLE FAMILY IS TENNESSEE FANS AND GENE AND I ARE AUBURN FANS AND THEY WERE PLAYING EACH OTHER SO WE HAD TO HAVE A BIG PARTY TO SEE WHO WOULD WIN FOR THE 5TH YEAR IN A ROW! YEP TENNESSEE WENT DOWN AGAIN! SEE LAST YEAR GENE AND I BOUGHT MY WHOLE FAMILY TICKETS TO GO TO AUBURN AND SEE THE GAME! WE HAD A BLAST!! WISH WE COULD HAVE DONE IT AGAIN THIS YEAR BUT W
E COULDN'T BUT WATCHING IT AT THE HOUSE TOGETHER IS STILL FUN! SUNDAY WAS A LAZY DAY! IT WAS COLD AND RAINING SO WE DECIDED TO DO NOTHING ALL DAY! WE SAT AROUND AND YEP DID NOTHING ALL DAY LONG! SO LOVELY! I HONESTLY BELIEVE EVERYONE NEEDS ONE OF THOSE DAYS EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE! VERY REFRESHING!
JAYCIE GOT A NEW CAR SEAT YESTERDAY. YEP, SHES A BIG GIRL NOW ! OF COURSE ITS STILL REAR FACING FOR A FEW MORE MONTHS BUT SHE STILL LOVES IT SO MUCH BETTER!
SO I LOVE ME SOME K-LOVE RADIO STATION! THAT'S ALL I LISTEN TO NOW! THEY GIVE ME SO MUCH HOPE AND INSPIRATION. I LOVE THE MUSIC AS WELL AS LISTENING TO THEM TALK AND GIVE MOTIVATIONAL WORDS AND HELPFUL TIPS! SO THEY ARE ENCOURAGING EVERYONE TO READ THE BOOK OF PROVERBS FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER. THERE ARE 31 DAYS IN OCTOBER AND 31 CHAPTERS IN THIS BOOK. SO I DECIDED I WAS GOING TO DO IT. I NEED TO START READING MY BIBLE MORE SO THIS WAS THE PERFECT WAY TO GET STARTED! OH MY GOODNESS, I'M SPEECHLESS. THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS IN THE BIBLE! ITS ABOUT WISDOM AND DISCIPLINE. JUST WHAT I'M FIGHTING WITH RIGHT NOW IN MY LIFE! IVE ONLY READ THE FIRST 6 CHAPTERS BUT MAN I'M SO READY TO KEEP READING AND READING. ITS ENCOURAGING ME AND FORMING MY LIFE RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES! GOD IS SOOO GOOD!!! HE MAKES A WAY FOR EVERYTHING JUST IN TIME! SO THANK YOU LORD FOR BRINGING K-LOVE INTO MY LIFE AND GETTING ME BACK ON TRACK! YOU ARE THE MOST AWESOME MOST WONDERFUL GOD! I LOVE YOU !
THANK YOU LORD FOR MY FAMILY AND ALL THE BLESSINGS IN MY LIFE!
