So, it has been a while!

So, I have not kept my word in that I was going to try and make this a routine to keep all of my beloved friends updated on my side of the world!  Well, I have some time, although, I should be sewing a few things right now, but I would rather sit my big ass on the recliner,ice my plantar facaitis, blog, and watch a movie while it is 12 degrees, zero with the windshield outside!  My Lovie is sleeping and hubby watching ufc and Jett at grandma's.  But, I am tired, I can barely keep my eyes open, so I will get started!
Jett is hopefully getting over his terrible 3's and heading into fabulous 4!  He is a smart butt and is just smart in general.  His preschool teacher said that he could actually skip a grade, I was seriously considering it when a whole week he came home, screaming at the top of his lungs constantly.  I asked him why he thought that he can scream all the time and he said that another kid in his class does it.  Well, I went into his class for a Halloween party and yes, the kid is off the wall, but Jett helps him all the time and he is Jett's friend!  LOL  So, I have to explain that it is not acceptable and that I don't want to hear it again, ya, how stern I am!!  LOL  I am blessed that Jett is a pretty bright kid.  He is able to make sentences in spanish and know what spanish speakers are talking about, grandpa is teaching him how to play the guitar, and then just the general everyday things that he excells in.  I just can't believe he will be 4. 
Lovie is a hoot!  She finally started walking at 13 months and then teeth.  She teethed like no other starting around 4 months and after a long while got her 2 bottom teeth.  Since then, she has only protruded her "I" teeth, yes her vampire teeth!  I have never seen a kid grow this set of teeth first and we all call her "vampira."  She is little miss thang that loves her brother but will try to bite him or hit him if he pisses her off!  She loves to listen to music and sing, at times she hums to put herself to sleep.  She likes to eat, play wheels on the bus, play peek a boo, itsy bitsy spider.  She is a busy body with vampire teeth!
Me, well I am really enjoying my job, these catholic kids I think are onrier than public school kids but smarter than s**t!  I really enjoy praying 12x a day and going to church twice sometimes 3 times a week.  We did just get word that the school is on a budget freeze and they will not get rid of any teachers next year so I am grateful to have a job.  I don't mind driving 2 hrs a day, the kids are taken great care of my parents.  
Donnie and I well, let's say, it takes a lot of growing up, courage, and mercy. 
Enjoy the photos, I will try and keep updated!

 Lovie's 1st bday!  We just had a family gathering in our sunroom.
 I love the mess!
 So, I step into the kitchen and come back and find that Jett had colored his whole mouth!
 Jett and I danced in the fiesta this year in September.  I mainly did it for Jett's sake,
but ended up getting cohersed.  Jett has got the beat!
 Me and my handsome boy!
 Lovie and her da!  I just love those cheeks!
