It has been over a year since I last blogged. This have been insane! I started my photography business in June of last year and things have been growing ever since! I opening my studio in February, it is so amazing. I wish I could go there daily, but I am so blessed to be able to stay home with my little man most days!
Jay David will be turning two in just a couple of weeks. WHAT? TWO!?!?! I am amazed that my little man has grown so much. He is turning into a true and true toddler. He is talking up a storm and getting into everything imaginable.
He loves "fishes" and trains right now. He is kind of obsessed. I am currently fixing up a play room for him and about to start his bedroom. We chose Thomas the Train for his bedding, I am not in love with it, but he LOVES it...that is all that matters, right?
Todd is doing great, he received a promotion in January and now runs the main Regions branch in Florence and Killen. Hunting season is sneaking up on us fast, so soon we will be covered in camo around here! I have agreed to go on a hunting trip with his this year. We will see how that goes or IF it happens!
This last year has been an exciting time in our lives. It has also been hard for me. I have not seen my father since Christmas, which has been difficult to deal with and my PaPaw died. I have never went through something so hard in my life. We spent Sunday May 8 (mother's day) over at their house to celebrate my birthday and Mother's Day. He was so excited, he decided that he was going to eat what he wanted, his sodium had gotten critically low and he were having Taco Salads, something he loved! May 11th he went into the hospital and didn't make it out. He died in his sleep, I was the last person that talked to him. It has been hard to think that when I left his side (everyone was already asleep) he was dying. I told him how much I loved him and he raised his head and nodded, perhaps he was just getting comfortable, but I like to think he knew what I was saying. I had just gotten home and my called to tell me the news. It was really so hard. I think about him all the time and I think that Jay David misses his PaPaw. He asks and talks about his all the time. My last photo with him:
OK, this is a short post here! I have to get back to the play room, I will update again soon! I leave you with the cutest little boy in the world!
