Six?!

I'm a little behind on my blogging. I just realized I haven't even written about Tristan's birthday! T-Boy turned 6 years old on Feb. 27th. Blows my mind. Time really does go faster the older my kids get. Maybe it's because we get busier with sports, dance, school, church, etc...Whatever it is I don't like it!

This was his year to have a friends party so we decided on a sports theme since he is a tad obsessed! We had about 10 kids total and just went over to the church. We played indoor baseball, shot a few hoops, a relay race, and of course presents, cake and ice cream. Apparently not all boys love sports because a few lost interest, but Tristan had a blast so that's what matters. Right?

We had family parties as well so he got pretty dang spoiled. He loved all of his presents - especially his batman belt from Grandma & Grandpa Duffin. That was the only thing he asked for. When we were driving home from their house he said, "I still can't believe it! Is this real? It's too good to be true!" So dramatic. So funny. So T.

I feel so blessed to have such an amazing kid to call mine! He is all boy. So much fun! Incredibly smart and hard-working. Determined. Passionate. Busy. And one of the best things that ever happened to me! Happy 6th Birthday Tristan!








Geek Alert!

So for the past few months I have been OBSESSED with getting my home organized. Labels and all! I have a new love for Dollar Tree.  I even have dreams (plural)  about organizing my house! Such a nerd. I feel like it is something cheap, quick, and helps my home function better and I hopefully yell and stress less! I have never, I mean ever, been the organized, clean-freak. I'm still not nor will I ever be a clean freak. I wish I was. I have to live and expect some clutter - especially with kids. Right? However, I aim to live simply. Like that saying, "A place for everything and everything in it's place." Anyways, this has been my life and as I said before, obsession, so I am blogging about it. Lame I know.
