Fun new stuff!! :)

Savanna learned how to WINK!! All of the sudden out of the blue, she winked at me, one eye and then the other!! :) Being four is certainly awesome :) She loves to talk about going to the beach ("that's where Uncle Kevin lives") and maybe getting to go to Sea World for her birthday - trying to convey how FAR away October is can be challenging :) But she is very into birthdays and celebrating - she made me a "cake" yesterday and we had a whole party - even tho my birthday is still 2 months away. I'm telling her Wyatt is next and she is already excited about helping with his cake :) She is a great big sister. Kinda bossy, but I've heard it goes with the territory.

Wyatt is talking SO much. He even tried to say "be excused" tonight after dinner. And of course, only Chuck and I can really "speak Wyatt-ese", but it is so precious and I love this stage of actually learning to talk and express. YAY! He is also testing every boundary...today at the park he was totally ignoring me until I belted out "Samuel Wyatt Johnson!", then he turned around with the most mischievous grin ever...Jesus, help me! It'd be easier if he weren't so darn cute!! :)

Peanut is GROWING!! We got to hear his/her heartbeat on Tuesday and, as usual, it made me cry and Charles beam with happiness :) The belly is getting bigger - people don't look at me like I've just had one too many drinks any more :) It is obvious, Baby Johnson will be joining the world, soon. We get to find out the baby's gender beginning of February, so go ahead; wait with baited breath! We are :)

Holy Yoga, a trip to the ER...and God's goodness

well we discovered that West Valley Hospital and Phoenix Children's Hospital are both great facilities. Saturday night Wyatt fell from one of the dining room chairs - no one saw him, I got to him immediately but i am not exactly sure what happened. Loooong story and 7 hours in the hospital. The Dr's at West Valley did a c/t scan on Wyatt, and came to the conclusion that there was some bleeding on the left side of his brain. So they shipped us to PCH, where the nuerologists came to the conclusion there was absolutely nothing wrong and no bleeding on the brain. PTL! It was a hard thing to go thru - watching them, holding Wyatt as they poked him, scanned him and generally bugged him. He took it like a champ, however, and around 1130pm when I was having a snack b/c I nearly passed out on the table as they were drawing blood from him, Wy was so MAD that he couldn't have a snack too. So glad to see the little fighter was back. Charles had to return to work in the midst of all thi...

NEW ADVENTURES - 2018

Image
Well, it has been a ridiculous amount of time since I last created a blog post. To say that life has happened is an understatement LOL So much has happened. Charles worked as a police officer for the City of Goodyear for 7 years, then transferred to the Gila River Indian Reservation and worked there for 14 months (way too far and so hard on the family!!) He started working for the city of Buckeye in September 2015 and it has been a GREAT city to work for. He has been a police officer for 11 years now! I work for Revelation Wellness and it is such a JOY! I started out working as an Enrollment Adviser, welcoming new instructors into the training and now I am the Director of Culture - handling HR, developing our team and working with the instructors in their regions. I LOVE my job. Savanna is now 11 and going into 6th grade. Wyatt is 9 and going into 4th. Hudson is 7 and going into 2nd grade. So many changes since 2013 when I last posted :) Here is how we got to this adventure! ...

A family member you may never have known we had..

I am the grandmother to a moose. Yes, you heard me correctly, a MOOSE. She doesn't have a "re al" name, it is simply "moose" or "moosie." She has become a permanent and important part of our daily life. Yesterday Moose looked at me and said "Grandma!" Wow. Not ready for the one quite yet. Guess I'm getting some practice in on a small, blue well-loved moose with no neck to speak of any more. (Her neck has been "loved" do wn into her belly). She 1st joined our family when Savvy was 1 or so, a nd went ignored for quite a while...I think she was discovered shortly after the little brother came on the scene. Moose goes EVERYWHERE with us, and occasionally sleeps at other people's houses, esp.Grandma's (on accident)...Once we thought we'd left her at Safeway and I almost cried...until I remembered, she is just a BLUE MOOSE. Still, she is part of every thing in life... "Momma, Moosie doesn't like that. Momma, Moos...
