The big mean car...

Oh man, take away his milk, his pacifier, his blanket, clothes- whatever! But do NOT put that little boy in the car! I cannot drive anywhere without Wesley screaming his little head off. If Carly is in the car with us, she is really good about making faces, and taking his mind off that obvious torture. But when it's just him and I... he screams until I think his head my pop. I'm really hoping it's something that will pass. If not, I'm going to become home-bound!
Classes started for me again today, and hopefully this semester will be smooth. Poor Ray already has his students ignoring his due dates and sending sad emails. Poor guy gets a new pestering email every day. He's a patient person though, and a good teacher. We were looking into the programs his school offers in Bowling Green, KY, and one of them is Sonography. If we end up moving, that's what I want to do. I think being an ultrasound technician would be very interesting, and a growing field.
Ray finally finished Carly's kindergarten graduation video, and is supposed to put it up. Hopefully he will get around to doing that soon!
I am so close to finishing my shopping cart cover, and then I am going to work on making a blanket/vest for Carly. I will post pictures of the cart cover when it's all done. If anyone has any sewing ideas, let me know!

New Blog Address

I recently received an email from our blog, telling me it was time to renew. I realized how little we post, and decided to get back on the horse! However, I like blogspot a bit better than wordpress, so I moved all of our former posts on over here, and will be posting here instead. 

So, an update is due, I suppose.

So, let's see. 

Ray- Ray is working, spending time on his brand new computer, up-keeping the maintenance on the home, and perfecting his fatherly techniques. He does pretty well at all.

Carly- Carly is Carly. She is loving first grade, and mastering her reading skills. For her birthday this year, we are taking her to Disneyland. We are spending November 11-16 at the Happiest Place on Earth. We are also going to arrange a lunch with the princesses, and make it as special as possible!

Wesley- Wesley is getting big! I stuck him on the scale the other day, and he was weighing in at 12 1/2 pounds! He is finally fitting his 0-3 months clothes, and is figuring out his hands. He giggled last night in his sleep, and we are patiently waiting the REAL giggles. 

Me- I start back to school on Monday, still trying to decide what I want to do. I recently talked Ray into buying me a sewing machine, and I am trying to relearn what I knew 10 years ago.

So far I've decided to make, or have made-

• A pacifier clip (To keep his paci off the floor!)
• A shopping cart cover (This pattern is getting the best of me!)
• Burp Clothes
• A dress for Carly
• A blanket for Carly

We have also decided to try cloth diapering for Wesley. We receive our trial pack next week. I'm so excited! Hopefully this helps minimize our leaky diapers, and cuts down on costs for us. 

Well, that's all for now, but hopefully I'll update on a semi-daily basis again!
