2011

Wow it's been a very long time since I've posted anything on my blog. The only explanation I have for being delayed in posting is...LIFE. And it's been a busy beginning in 2011. I can't believe it but Madilyn will be turning two in May. Time has definitely flown by too quickly and my baby is growing right before our eyes. I'm definitely ready for another baby but that will have to wait at least another 18 months.



Scot has been without a job since May 2010 so we decided at the end of last year that he would head back to college to complete his BA. He started in January at UTA and he is absolutely enjoying being a full-time Junior college student. He's doing very well and enjoying all of his classes.
He's taking two Political Science classes, US History, Texas History and English Literature. He will be finished in about 2 years with a BA to teach 4th-8th grade in History and English. I know he hopes to possibly find an Asst. Coaching position as well. I'm just glad he's able to finish his degree.



Madilyn is back in daycare and doing wonderfully. She is growing up so quickly and retaining so much information. Everyday is a new learning experience for her and no matter what location or event we are teaching her new things. I love that she thinks they are games and she's having fun. I'm sure we're biased but she's brilliant. Her teacher did tell us that she is ahead of the kids in her class and some of the two year old children in the other class. She's counting to 10, knows that green means go and red means stop, and she's speaking in two and three word sentences now. I could go on and on forever. There's just so many things she can do and say and it's so exciting to be her parents.

As for me, well I was promoted to Senior Paralegal in January. I was very excited and a nice raise came along with the promotion. It's nice to know that I'm in a place where I'm doing well and don't have to worry about losing my job. It's nice to know we have some security at this point in our lives. It gets exhausting worrying all the time. I've stopped worrying and I'm just living. Living everyday for Madilyn and my family. It's not always easy but I'm learning.


I hope everyone is enjoying 2011 and living life to the fullest!!
