A Day at Work

Cheyenne had a fever yesterday at the babysitter's and still had 102 this morning. Of course, Scott's day off is tomorrow and I HAD to be at work today for a phone/online demonstration and get the craft room organized before Monday from all the stuff Summer Rec brought us. I will already be gone part of tomorrow and Friday. So, Cheyenne came to work with me. She has done very well so far. Although now, I think she has asked me twice if we can go home and then how much longer before we can leave. She is sleeping now so hopefully that will help the 3 1/2 hours left go by fast for both of us! At least I am fortunate enough to have a job where I can take my kids to work with me when I need to.

Princesses

Today when I took the girls to daycare, they right away asked to play dressup. I stuck around for a few minutes to see my pretty princesses! Cheryl even has gold shoes on to match her dress!

Breast Feeding

A friend's status on facebook today drew my attention to an article on the Hutchinson News online about a La Leche League . I had to go there and see it myself. After looking at the picture and reading the article I had to comment on my friend's status. There have been many more comments on her status and also on the article online. I nursed both of my girls until they were 1 year old and could drink milk. I think that is a good time to stop. I think nursing was the best thing for my kids and myself. They both did well with it and never had any formula. That saved us a lot of money. Especially when Cheyenne was still in diapers when Cheryl was born. Since I've seen a lot of comments I just thought I'd post it on my blog as well and see if there were any opinions here. I'm all for nursing and nursing in public but there comes a time when a child is too old. Oh, and one comment said the world average age for weaning is 4 years! I can't imagine nursing my 4 year old OR my 2 year old!

My Girls

Visiting Daddy

We took a cake out to Scott last night at work. The girls loved getting to go into the control room with Daddy. Especially because he has a turtle in there and they love watching him swim and crawl on the log. It wasn't the celebration we would have liked to have with Scott on his birthday but it was nice to be able to spend a few minutes with him.

30 Years!

Today my wonderful husband and father to our beautiful daughters turns 30! Thirty used to seem old, it doesn't seem too old but I think he feels old. He had a rough month of June. He purchased a motorcycle the end of May and the first weekend in June wrecked it. There was a mechanical issue that caused him to crash. He was scraped up pretty bad and sore for several weeks. Last week at work he ran into a wrench and broke a rib. He's on light duty at work for 6 weeks. Lately he hasn't been able to ride his motorcycle or do some of the other things he enjoys doing like playing softball and running. I pray that his birth month is much better for him.

I wish him a very happy birthday today. He had to go back to nights tonight so we won't get do do much celebrating with him today. He has been working week on, week off for the last month so it's been w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l having him home more. The girls love staying with daddy too on his weeks off. The don't want to go back to daycare when we both have to go back to work! He's an awesome husband and father! Love you Scott! Happy Birthday!
