Big thanks to my hubby!!!

I really do have the greatest husband ever!  Ever since I started working on weekends, he does the laundry and goes grocery shopping for me.  This past week I starting feeling awful.  I drug myself to the dr. and found out I had walking pneumonia, I guess a perk of working with germy kids!  Having that on top of morning sickness, was just plain awful.  Brandon was so wonderful...he did everything!!!  He took Caden out of the house so I could sleep for almost 48 straight hours, he cleaned, he organized C's closet, he ran out and got me take out, rented me a movie, and he stayed home to pamper me the opening weekend of hunting season. Some of you may think "ok whats the big deal with hunting", well he has always gone hunting especially opening day, its a ritual for him.  I told him to please go, we'd be fine and he insisted he needed to stay home!  He truly is the best husband and dad we could ever ask for!  Just wanted to give him some much deserved credit!!  I love you Brandon.

Something besides my kid....

I blog alot about Caden....so I decided to write about my job! I love my job, couldn't be happier working. Even though its time away from B and C, I still enjoy getting away and having some "me" time. I never would have thought working would satisfy my "me" time!!! I work at Huntsville Hospital in huntsville and I specifically work in the pediatric ER. We are a level 2 trauma center, which means we handle almost anything and everything from near drownings to strep throat. We are the only hospital in north alabama to do level 2 traumas for children. We get tons of kids from all over north alabama. We also refer children out to many different place...st. judes, vandy, oncology hospitals etc. The people I work with are super awesome, we know how to have a good time and we know how to kick butt in helping kiddos! The job can be emotional at times, but the good out weighs the bad. I love feeling like I've made a difference in a child's or a families life! Of course, no job is better than being a mommy, so thats still my #1 job!!

A new little blessing....

Will be arriving in May!!!! Brandon and I are expecting our 2nd baby May 28th!!! We are so excited and thrilled! I have known since Sept. 14th I was pregnant but we wanted to wait till after my first dr. appt. to share our news! They thought I was 7 weeks along but after the ultrasound yesterday, we found out I was only 5 weeks and 5 days! I get to go back in 2 weeks for another ultrasound...yipeee...my baby was too small to really see! Caden is super excited he's going to be a big brother and has names the new baby some interesting names!!!

I can feel it in the air....

Fall!!!!! My favorite time of the year! Everything around me just feels like fall...Auburn football, mums, the 75 degree weather, pumpkins at publix, and the fair!!!!!! We headed to the good ol' Lincoln co. fair last weekend.
So glad my kid loves the fair as much as I do! I can remember going to the fair as a kid in GA every year! And now I can pass this on and start traditions with my family!!

Soccer

Caden started soccer at the beginning of September! I was so excited when I signed him up and couldn't wait for the first game! Well, he did NOT enjoy his first game. It was so hot and he didn't want to run and didn't get the whole team thing. He thought he was supposed to kick the ball by himself in the goal, bless his heart! After some tears, lots of water, and some bribery from his MiMi, he did much better the second half. We've had 3 games so far and he's improved so much since that first game! And we've laughed alot, watching a bunch of 4 and 5 year olds trying to kick the ball is hilarious! I'm so proud of him. He is really enjoying it now, which does my heart good! I tried playing, key word here is try, my freshman year of highschool and loved it...too bad i sucked! I mainly did it with my friends to have fun....I certainly didn't do it to run the many laps we used to have to do! I'm sure all my friends still remember those soccer days=) Anyways, this whole chapter of starting sports with Caden is so much fun and just reminds me of how BIG my baby is!!!
