Brady, the Astros, and a whole lotta fun!

Curt and I took Brady to an Astros game on Wednesday. He had a great time waving at the pitchers in the bull pen, playing catch with daddy using a pair of socks (we didn't have a ball) and playing in the kids area...and oh yeah...the Astros won.

Thanks MDA for the tickets!

Hurricane Ike Update

Brady wanted to help clean up the debris and he saw that we all had gloves so he ran and got some "gloves."

Well, before the hurricane I prayed that God wouldn't give us more than we could handle and of course He didn't! We don't have a fence (but we prayed that that would be the only thing we lost!) Other than that we didn't have any damage. We do have power. We were in Abilene during the hurricane so we didn't experience the terror that came with Ike. We are out of school until further notice...whatever that means. I'm ready to go back!

Fun in the Sand!

This was Brady's first encounter with a real sand box. He wasn't too sure about it at first, but towards the end he let go of dad and loved it!

Fun at Schlitterbahn!!

We took Brady to the Schlitterbahn in Galveston this past Saturday and had a blast! He loved it! Well...we did too! At the end of the day he actually fell asleep in my arms on a 2 man float as we floated down the lazy river. My husband on one side of me, my baby in my arms and a nice breeze taking us through the water...it was pretty close to Heaven I'm sure!

We don't get out of school until this Thursday so I am now counting down the 3 1/2 days we have to go. But then I'm teaching summer school. Not really because I want to but because where else am I going to get that kind of money???? No where! So i can endure 4 more weeks of school...I think!

Just wanted to share with you Brady's new ride. Nana bought it at a garage sale...what a steal! He loved it. We would say put the fire out and he would grab the hose and make a sound like water was coming out.

Happy Mother's Day!!

Hey everyone! Once again I am reminded today how lucky I am to be a mom. Sometimes I "forget" because I still feel like a carefree youngster....then I glance in my rearview mirror and see the car seat and crumbs and realize...oh yeah...I'm a grown-up mommy! Isn't it funny how the last time I saw alot of you that are reading this, we were in college and wondering when and if we would ever be married...much less be responsible for another human being. I love how God works..He was probably laughing at us the whole time thinking just wait...you have no idea what I have in store for you!

I however felt like I deserved a mother's day WEEKEND..not just a day. So I took off of work on Friday, took Brady to daycare and hit the outlet malls in Houston. Love it!! I feel like I celebrated all weekend, but then again...I feel like I could celebrate everyday because of how blessed I am to have such a beautiful baby on loan to me from God!

I've posted a few pictures of our mother's day celebrations...Enjoy.

Here we go...

I feel like it is time for me to feel like a grown up and begin a blog as opposed to just having a myspace. In the last week I have found many old friends from A&M and as I scroll through and read about their families and look at pictures of their babies, I'm thinking I would like to share my new life with them as well. I've been married to a wonderful man for 3 years and we have a beautiful baby boy who will be 2 in July. His name is Brady Scott...for no other reason other than it sounded good to be used during all the important moments in his life. :) I teach 6th grade Reading/Language Arts and Social Studies in Pearland, Tx. I continue to love my job and feel blessed to be living the life that I am. I look forward to re-connecting with lots of people that are near and dear to my heart...so let me hear from you!
