I wanted to post this cute picture of my baby Zane who is going to be 3 years old on September 19th. He is my 3rd and final child and I just want to say, "Where does the time go?" On one hand I can't wait for him to grow out of all of the stages he has gone through and I can't wait for him to start school...but on the other hand I would give ANYTHING to have him this size again...
This is what you do when you have taken the more economical Honda Accord versus the comfy, roomy, Yukon on a trip to Montana and you think you are going to kill someone...
Also, yes, that is Jason's bedroom face. Hot, huh?!?
On our way to and from Bozeman we drove through Yellowstone. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was. I could live without all the sulfur smell in the air but the scenery was amazing. Jason and I want to go back with just adults and spend some time hiking and exploring.
Yes...I realize that it is August 12th but better late than never, right?!?!? We were in Bozeman, Montana, staying with Mike and Donna Kroff and family. (Jason's brother and sis-in-law) Our kids were in a parade at the LDS church where Mike and Donna attend. They had a blast decorating their scooters and Zane's bike. In Montana you can still buy "real" fireworks that shoot high into the air. Not the fireworks that you can buy in Utah that barely even emits a spark. We had a blast and hope to go to Bozeman again soon!
O.K. I just want to get this off my chest...I am not someone who aspires to be a stay-at-home mom. Please don't take me wrong. I have nothing but respect and admiration for moms that can stay home and cater to their children's needs and keep their homes clean and their men happy...it is just not for me. I think I am just too selfish. I love my children and I love spending time with them but I am a better mom for working. My house may be unorganized and my laundry may not all be folded and put away but I am just someone who is fulfilled by being employed. So as the two of you that read this blog already know I have been working for Dr. Shawn Davis who is a new oral surgeon in town. I have been there for about 7 weeks now and I was promoted to office manager and given a raise. I love it!
By the way, what sparked this whole desire to vent was a blog that I read where in the "about me" section she put down that she is a wife who has the opportunity to be a stay at home mom and she keeps her house spotless (she really used those words) and cooks meals for her family. I guess my own issues have come forth and prompted me to feel insecure about the fact that currently my house is a disaster, my husband is on his way right now to pick up food for dinner, and instead of doing anything to be productive I'm blogging.
