Living Life now, "Toddler Style"

Cody's 10 year reunion is this May, and I was thinking about that a lot lately, not so much that he graduated 10 years ago...but that I graduated 8 years ago. I got to thinking how fast it has gone by and what have I been doing?!! Crazy to think that yes I have accomplished a lot in those 8 years!!



*Became a nurse and got a job a month later and love being a nurse. (no picture for that)



*Got Married to Cody, and I'm realizing how good of a decision that was more and more

*Thought I had mono, but realized it was just a case of pregnancy, ha ha!!

*January 2008, I received my true calling, I became a mother! Words can't express my feelings on this issue. When I look back at these picture I have such a mixture of emotions, how special it is to have a child and watch them grow, and at the same time ache with worry of the things that are to come that they must endure.



I would say the next step would be present. Cody is still working at Atmos Energy and challenges himself to learn and do new things. I am working part-time, maybe less and get to stay home with my Kennedy the rest of the time. We live a simple life and look forward to movie nights and taking Kennedy to do "new" things.

It's been hard when I think everything is good now and life is rolling on, because then I think about my parents and miss them and wish I could drive to see them when I wanted. Its been pretty nice to have a place to vacation to though, Corpus Christi is a nice get-away spot and my parents have a gorgeous home. Cody's family is here and my sisters are both close by so we aren't without family and Kennedy loves all of them.

I am embracing the time I have to stay home with Kennedy during the day, living my Life Toddler Style!!
