Recent pictures and update on us

I got a note from a friend of mine the other day reminding me that I haven't put pictures on my blog in a while. :) No excuses really. I told my sister this morning that I don't get on the computer much at home. Too much other stuff to do! So, since the mower wouldn't work this morning and I'm not mowing, I guess I will get some pictures uploaded and give everyone and update on us. I tried to get this done last night but I kept getting kicked off the Internet. It was frustrating and I said oh well! I later realized that Win was knocking the modem over behind her bed.

Win is doing better at school now. It seems that it took her a few weeks to get used to everything. I really think the sassyness that came right after school started was because she thought I was leaving her and was sad. When we drive to school and other places she is always asking how to spell something. She knows a few words now and is always interested in how to spell big words. I have to be careful though because I might spell the word wrong!!



Winter playing in her room.


William got the guitar that we got with the car out for Win to play. She seemed to like it and is always asking to play! Hey, I'm glad she likes music!!


Winter made the "Neck-A-lace" she's wearing. She's rather proud of it!!


Maxx is growing like a weed as you can tell from the pictures. I had to take him to the doctor this week. Mama (where they stay) called me because he had a rash all over the right side of his face. The doc said that he had some respiratory issues...bronchitis is what I understood from him. He's on an antibiotic and some other stuff. I sure hope he gets better soon! I didn't realize he was that sick. He was always laughing and cooing and stuff. He was stopped up and his eye was running but the nurse on the phone said it was probably a clogged tear duct. Anyway, he will get better.


This one cracked me up because his eyes are crossed and he's trying to look at the toy! Funny Maxx!!
Speaking of Maxx....I was outside talking to William while he was changing the oil in the truck. He made a movement with his head and it was just like Maxx...well I guess Maxx is just like William!



Check out the fauxhawk!! :) (Inspired by a student of mine)


Sweet sleeping Maxx...folding his hands like he's praying!



Win and Maxx...she actually likes him...right now anyway!


William is doing okay in school. AT first it was a big adjustment to be able to do his homework and work too. There are some days when there is a lot to get done in the short time he has so I have helped him some. He will get better as the semester goes by! He told me this morning that mid terms are in two weeks! WOW!! That seems fast!!
These last two pictures are my new favorites!!

"Blast from the Past" day

A couple of weeks ago was homecoming at Overton. (The week after the hurricane to be exact.) Anyway, one of the days was blast from the past day. I dressed up...see the picture below. Here is the sad part....my students said I looked great! lol They said you need to wear your hair like that more often! I think they mean I need to wear it down. At least that is how I'm going to take it anyway! So, I have decided to get a hair cut. (I realized that I have had the same hair style for about 10-15 years!!) The hair style I'm going for is below too. I'm strange I know! I was watching an episode of What Not to Wear and said I want that hair! Yes, I took a picture of the TV! I haven't gotten it yet, but I will soon!! Let me know what you think!
