Yeah! My first blog! Well, right now, Alan is trying to get his new business off the ground......well I should say settled. He started ATMedia as of August 1st. The Lord has blessed us in so many ways the past few years and this was just another way of Him showing us that life is unpredictable and He has a plan for us. ATMedia has gotten off to an awesome start. I am still working part-time for Decatur Physicians For Women, but also helping Alan with his business. I guess I am his little secretary, but I don't get paid!!! I keep waiting on a paycheck, but it hasn't come yet! All kidding aside, I think we work well together. We are both excited about it and can't wait to see how it progresses. Gage is 4 years old. He is at such a great age. Alan and I both talk about how we can sit and have a pretty detailed conversation with him. It is amazing some of the comments he makes. He told me the other day that he had to get Reese down off the chair "because it is very dangerous." Coming from a 4 year, it sounds funny. Then, he told me he had a "tummy ache". After discussing it with his daddy, he came to me and said, "Mommy, I must have swallowed a fly or a bee, because Daddy said I probably had a stomach bug". That will definitely be one to write down. He is excited about playing T-ball next year and starting pre-K. Reese will 19 months this month. What else can I say than, one girl is enough for each family. I can't tell you how many times I want to pick up my phone and call my mother and tell her how much I can NOW sympathize with her on having me, let alone TWO girls. I am still in awe on how quickly girls learn to be so sassy and can give you the dirtiest looks. Mom, if you're reading, I'M SO SORRY!!! If it helps to emphasize the situation, her list of words on a daily basis is: of course, "NO", "Night Night", Mama, mama, mama"(I've considered changing my name), "NO, NO"(followed by an evil stare), and even more "No's". She is definitely a mama's girl[can't even shower, or even have my daily "think about what I've done today"(some of you SHOULD know what I mean)] With showers, I get the little fingers under the door. The only time I don't have the magnet on my leg or hip is.........well, maybe work?! All kidding aside, she is so funny and has been a joy. Gage and Reese are both in daycare. Not exactly what I would want, but it's a must. Well, that's about it. Other than the two doggies we have, Greta(dachshund) and Jack(black lab). You know, we love them, but, when you have kids, the dogs kind of take the back burner. We'll keep you updated on the family stuff and I look forward to chatting with everyone.
