A Little Catch Me Up

Good Morning My Faithful Readers...Oh how I've missed you!  Really, I have.  I'm just busy, you know?  Having two kids has a way sucking time, oh but they joy of sweet faces!!

I thought I would catch you up on life in the Watson home.  Let's just do a little top ten, okay?  Ok, here we go....

1. Everyone is sleeping well.  Can I get a Hallelujah?  Ellie is hit or miss as far as sleeping through the night goes, but when she's up it's short, sweet and to the point-"change me, feed me, let me sleep."  I'll take it!!

2. I attribute Eli's successful sleep to swimming.  Goodness, I love swimming!!

3. I've arranged it to where I can start  leaving work early two days a week. This gives me time to pick up the kids before nap time.  Crazy?  Maybe, but well worth it for the extra time with them!  Yesterday was our first attempt at this, and it was great! 

4. Tomorrow I have a little something else up my sleeve which includes some Father's Day gift making.

5. Another random fact, I'm obsessed with Disney.  We had a little trip planned, but Eli informed us that he would rather go to Monster Jam...MONSTER JAM!!  I think I'm raising a redneck.  Needless to say, if he doesn't want to go, we're going to save the money.

6. I'm thinking this should have been a Top Five instead of a Top Ten.

7.  I finally joined the 21st Century and joined Instagram.  I'm in love.  It's my new favorite social media.  Who needs Facebook?  I joke...sorta!  

8.  Who knows, I may go hog wild and join Twitter.  Stay tuned.  Oh, and follow me on Instagram: Morganwwatson.

9.  This list is getting long.  I had no idea my life was this boring.

10.  I do indeed have a ton of pictures I want to post for you, but as you know, sometimes that takes too much effort!!

A New Decade

Happy 2020, everyone!  I know I'm a month and a half behind, but ya'll, January was brutal!  Not brutal in a tragic kind of way but in a "life will wear you out" kind of way. It started off with the flu...times three!  Eric, Ellie and I had Flu B and missed the first week back to school and work.  Then Eli was diagnosed with Flu A two weeks later.  Thankfully, my in-laws stepped in to help so that we didn't have to miss any more time at work. On top of the sickness, we listed our house for sale. The work it takes getting ready for market is just crazy. But we also have people coming in and out of our home at all hours and it's just kinda overwhelming. Plus, we are finalizing everything with the builder. In full transparency, working with the builder has been the easiest part! Maybe I'll do a little update on the whole building process later this week.  Now that the dust has settled on 2020, I'm going to try my very hardest to keep this litt...

Running Through The Sprinkler

Playing in the sprinkler was on our summer bucket list.  To me it seems weird just checking if off and moving on to the next activity because when I was younger, we ran through a sprinkler pretty much every day.  Putting it under the trampoline and letting it keep all the "jumpers" cool, was a favorite pastime. I cringe now. What the heck were we doing with eight kids on a net-free trampoline anyway? Ha! Back to the present…Eric treated the pool yesterday, so we couldn't swim which made it the perfect night to drag out the water hose and sprinkler.   Neither child loved it at first, so we turned down the pressure.  They slowly but surely warmed up to it.  Bless her little heart, Ellie stood right in the middle and took a direct hit.  She would make the worst face you've ever seen then cry ridiculsouly if you tried to move her.  Eli ran straight though the middle with his eyes closed.  Thank goodness our y...

Sunday Funday

Ellie redeemed herself last night by sleeping EIGHT STRAIGHT HOURS!!  Ya'll, we are so blessed to have a good sleeper, and Eli is doing great too!  There are no word to express our gratitude. I try to get pictures on Sundays before church because it's pretty much the only day that we all look presentable, at least at the same time.  Some days I still have on work clothes and look ok, but the kids are in sweats from daycare, or they're looking super cute and I'm in gym clothes.  Please tell me you understand this! At church today, a friend's son gave Eli two brand new pair of baseball pants.  Brett plays ball for a local high school, and Eli thinks he hung the moon.  You can imagine how excited he was to sport his new pants.  As soon as we got home, Eli had change into them and a baseball shirt...love his heart! Eric let me take a little nap, and when I woke up we decided to let Eli swim in the kiddie pool since it's about a ba...
