Arlington Texas Voting

This last weekend was Arlington’s elections. Since Tim had his surgery on Friday he can’t lift over 5 pounds. So Saturday the kids and I headed out to our local polling station to cast our vote. I forgot about early voting so Saturday was my only chance to get my vote in.

Mayor Cluck came to see me in the hospital when I had TJ. I met him when I was in high school and I made an impression (and he knows my dad) so when my dad told him I was having TJ at the hospital that he serves as vice president of medical affairs, he insisted that my dad tell him when I delivered TJ. (Side story: he got there when the social worker was talking to me. When he walked in the worker was shocked and slowly moved up against the side wall. When he left she just said thank you and walked out…haha)

Anytime its time to go vote for him….I GO!

Well TJ and Anna of course were with me and I told him we were going to go vote. He called it boot. He met Robert Rivera (our city council rep) and walked in all excited to boot. So they gave him a sample ballot to “vote”. I filled it in for him and he walked out saying he got to boot. Robert and his opponent cheered for him.

Training him up early!

Joys of Eating

Now that Anna is well into eating all her veggies she likes to get messy, and I just let her enjoy it.

After every bite she sucks on her thumb. Each bite she switches off which thumb to suck on.

One meal I just kept taking pictures. She would fuss at me if I took too long getting the food in her mouth.

Mothers Day

First Mothers Day as a mother of two kids!

It was also the first Mothers day that we didn't have to go to church. (we had church on Friday night...aka First Friday Service)

With young kids its very unlikely to sleep in. TJ was up at 7ish and Tim got him set up in the living room with his cartoons. That let me sleep for another 30-45 minutes.

We headed out to IHOP after Anna finally woke up.
TJ is making a funny face but this is the best we got. haha
I got my gift yesterday. Tim took me to Jared's and let me pick out more charms for my Pandora bracelet that he got me for my birthday and while we were there we got my wedding ring cleaned. I got three new charms. The clips on the ends and the heart in the middle.
I hope all you mothers had a great and fabulous day!

Happy Mothers Day!!!
