My poor Jax has quite the 'do lately. It tends to grow much faster in the back than it does in the front, so on a good day, he has a mullet. On a bad one? He wakes up with an unmanageable fro that goes along with his mullet, ie..the frullet. His hair is so much finer than Kyle's. Kyle has this thick, gorgeous hair and Jax, well, he has my hair: thin and straight as a board. Some how that straight hair finds a way to stand on its end when he has slept a certain way--hence, the frullet.
Due to one of my many violations of motherhood (I let Jax sleep on his tummy at an early age), his under-layer of hair has not really grown. It's kind of hard to picture, but if you lift the top of his hair, he just has peach fuzz underneath. This is doing his frullet no favors.
Anyway, I tried to make an appointment for both of the boys' haircuts, but Ms. Cindy (Chrissy's wonderful momma) doesn't have an opening until next week. I made them on two separate days. Yeah, I don't think I can manage both of my boys in a beauty shop at the same time. Sue me.
Kyle is still loving his new Pre-K, St. Christopher's. I'm so happy, because he is happy. As most of you know, when Kyle isn't happy, nobody's happy! :-)
I shouldn't tease, Kyle is a very well behaved student and a great big brother. He just sometimes turns into a demon-child. That's normal, right? Right???
I give up my reign as Escambia County's Teacher of the Year next week. We selected our new one today after classroom observations. I would tell you who it is, but I would have to kill ya, and most of you couldn't care less. It's been a fun and exciting year, and I am still shocked--12 months later.
Happy Mardi Gras to all!

Here we go...
I never thought I would see the day where I would have my own blog, but I have decided to use it as a baby book of sorts. Kyle, who is now 5, has a baby book that goes up to about 6 months. Jax, pffft....I didn't even bother buying one. Why would I, seeing how well I did with Kyle's?
You are welcome to follow me and my family through good times and bad. I will try to keep pictures uploaded here as frequently as possible. I am terrible about ordering hard copies of pictures and sending them out, so there is another plus to this blogging thing.
I can't promise that I will post incredibly often. I will try to do it at least once a week--definitely more in the summer. I know I have a lot to learn about formatting and such, but I will try to make it worth your while if you stick with me.
