It's OCTOBER, people! When did that happen? I have been so insanely busy I can't even believe it's already October. Sorry to those that actually read this, I've been that crazy. Thankfully you're all on my Facebook, so we can keep up that way!
Sterling turned 2.5 this last week!!!!!!! He's talking a ton more, cute little sentences. He's adorable, what can I say? He's really rough and tumble. He LOVES playdough. Love may be an understatement. He literally played with it at the kicthen table for three hours the other day. Just sat and played and sang and talked to it. He's hilarious.
And Harrison LOVES Joyschool. LOVES. He's so smart! I love that he is learning so much and he thinks learning is way cool. He is speaking in the primary presentation at the end of the month and he learned all of his reading/lines today. "When I read the scriptures and pray, I can receive a testimony that Jesus Christ is the son of God." He loves repeating it. The presenation isn't until the end of the month, but we figured he can't learn it too early and hopefully if he has it memorized really well we can work on the stage fright with him. He's SUPER shy when it comes to being in front of people, so we are going to have to work on that.
Joyschool has taught me a lot. It has taught me...I am not cut out for homeschooling. We will not be homeschooling next year. I'm way too busy with db images (which is a good thing) to homeschool, which is a full-time job. It has been a difficult time for me to come to terms with realizing that I'm not going to homeschool but it will be best for everyone. I refuse to do a half-crap job of homeschooling my kids, that would do NO one justice. And db images is doing REALLY well, and I would like to keep it that way. We need the extra money and I feel like I have been given this talent to use. So...he's going to school. I'm going to start looking into charter schools here. The public schools where we live aren't an option. Private school is likely too expensive, but we will see. So, keep checking back for more on that!
db images has been doing great and I'm loving it. I feel like my camera has been attached to my hand almost 24/7 and if it's not in my hand, my butt is in my computer chair. I have great clients. I'm doing a vendor booth at a public school in Wellington in November and I'm REALLY looking forward to it! I'm going to ROCK it :) SO much going on.
I have so many things going on in my head it's crazy.
And...in other news...I GOT MY TRAVEL VISA!!! About FREAKING time. I'm heading home for Christmas. Sooo...any southern Albertans out there that want portraits...book now! I'd love to be able to partially pay for our trip through portrait sessions at home.
For a photographer you'd think I'd have more images of those gorgeous kiddos of mine...alas...I have some I need to edit. Story of my life :)
Well, I thought it was about time I update this thing! I hope to do better. Look for changes coming in the new year to a new host, etc. That is if I can find time to do a new blog for mommy is crazy between a new site and blog for db images :)

FINALLY!! :)
That's so great that you're doing so well with dbimages! I'm totally jealous of that talent, so work it, baby! I'm sure Harrison will love regular school too. He's so sweet and smart. :)
Glad to hear that things are going so well.
I completely understand not being cut out for homeschooling. I tried it, for a week, and realized that for me and my children it just wasn't going to work. I was homeschooled for 3 1/2 years, and I loved it and I think it's great, but it's not for me.
Glad things are going well with db. That's exciting about the school vendor booth. Miss A loves school too. She has imaginary play school dates with Harrison.
