The Family that Makes up my Life

I started this blog to share my experiences as I learn to navigate the world of Mom/Wife/Adult so I suppose I should introduce you to the people that gave me 2 of those 3 titles. (names have been changed to protect the innocent...and my Husband!) :)

First are my sons. MAN do I love them. They make me laugh. They make me dance. They make me worry about things I never thought I would and forget about things I thought I'd worry about forever. Thank goodness for them!

My oldest is Little Man. He is the sweetest, most polite, lovey little boy I've ever met. (I know, I'm biased) AND one of the most dramatic and stubborn little human beings at the same time! (I have NO idea where he got those characteristics). He wants to be everyone's friend (as long as you don't expect him to share Lightening McQueen) and for the most part is very good at sharing (unless it's the aforementioned Lightening McQueen). I am enjoying every moment of this little being's sweetness yet am sad that I know the day will come when someone he wants to play with won't want to play with him and he will no longer dance and sing his little heart out if someone is watching. But until then, I'm doing my best to burn each singing, dancing, laughing act indelibly into my brain.

The baby of the family is Cutie Chubba (I know he'll outgrow this name but for now, he's Cutie Chubba). This kid...man. Just one look at you and he has your heart in a vice grip. Sweet, sweet, sweet! And one of the happiest babies you will ever encounter. He ADORES his big brother and loves to watch every move he makes. I'm looking forward to discovering who this little man is as he grows and grows and grows.

Then there is my BIGGEST Boy...yes...Handsome Hubby. We've been together 6 years and BOY has it been a ride! He is the best thing to ever happen to me. He takes care of me and challenges me on a daily basis. Thank goodness! I can't stand to be bored so this one keeps me on my toes, that's for sure. Ever the entrepreneur, he is constantly saying "Hey, honey, what do you think of this idea?" and then (usually) actually has the gumption to bring it to fruition. He is the epitome of Family Man, putting our sons and myself first in everything he does. Plus, he's a TOTAL guys guy. And, truth be told, I like that. I may roll my eyes alot at the things he says and does but I like that he has his own mind and will speak it. Plus, watching him with our boys just makes me fall in love with him over and over and over again. He is one big MUSH BALL when he's with them. He will do anything to make them smile. (Even dance!) And that makes me smile.

So that is my gang! No pets currently and to be honest, Mommy doesn't need anything/anyone else to take care of so we probably won't have any until the boys are big enough to do that job. OOPS! I forgot! We actually do have a fish but who knows for how much longer since it's Daddy's responsibility to take care of it...hehehe.
