Our Precious Boys!

Thank the Lord for the rain! Finally, we have an end to this drought! Too bad I didn't get my veggies planted yet... I am home alone with the kids until Sunday. Robby had a mandatory Fire training to attend tonight in Fortworth. The Fire Department that he works for is 130 miles from where we live, and since his normal scheduled shift doesn't actually start until tomorrow morning at 7, he is going to just stay the night tonight at the Station. His shifts are 24 hours( 7am-7am), so he will not be home until Sunday morning. ~ sigh~ I sure miss him when he's gone. James, being the adventurous boy that he is, decided to experiment with another way to climb up on the desk. He fell, busted his lip, bumped his head, bled, cried, and then told me about how he fell down, and that he was hungry and also wanted some chocolate milk. lol. My goodness children can be so resilient! He only cried for a matter of maybe 2 minutes, and then was ready for the next challenge. Yes, the joys of Motherhood. I have a bumpersticker posted to my Myspace that says " Motherhood, the only place where you can experiene Heaven and Hell at the same time." LOL! So very true. Josh has been having kind of a hard day today as well. He is such a trooper though! He is still perfecting the art of teething, which from what I understand is quite painful and for the most part can make you feel just absolutely miserable. He is still such a happy baby boy! He does his best to always be happy, smile, laugh, jump, and gab. Tonight I once again sucessfully completed another bedtime routine all by my self. I had both kids fed, bathed, Josh in bed by 7 and James in bed by 8. I am up late tonight because I can't seem to sleep well when Robby isn't home. Anyway, I really should 'hit the hay'. Here's couple of pics for you!
