So here it goes again......I know that I haven't used this blog in a while and then to start it back up again with a post without pictures is almost a sin, but I am on the laptop and all of our pictures are on the desktop. So I promise the next post with be nothing but lots of pics!!! :) As most of you know Kevin will be getting deployed again come Nov so I thought I would start to write on here again to help keep us all updated and to help me pass the time and keep me sane (lol). I'm a little nervous about this deployment more so than any of the others bc the kids are soooo attached to him now a days. And Kaitlyn is understanding more about length of time and so on. I'm trying to look at the positives though and trying to remind myself that it could always be worse. I know whole heartily that God is with us and that he will not give me more than I can handle. All of that aside we have been one busy family in the Mooney house! School has started back and with it so has dance and Kaitlyn's first season of soccer and THE TERRIBLE TWOS!!! Brayden loves his new class it is small with only 3 others kids, but he loves to play with them maybe a little too rough at times. I don't think he has had one day thus far without a time out for being a little too rough. Everyone keeps telling me "oh don't worry he is all boy" but none the less he keeps me on my toes and some days I think everyone within a 30 mile radius knows his name from me saying "No No Brayden No hitting!" I have never understood how someone so incredibly rotten can be so incredibly sweet! He has stolen Mama's heart, it is so true what they say about mothers and their sons. He is talking so much these days and will try to repeat anything you tell him to say including "roll tide" :) Kaitlyn has shot up about 3 inches since the beginning of summer she is so tall and loves to dance and sing to Taylor swift. She can be such a girly girl but can also be a tom boy, she is the best of both and plays really well with Bray. She had her first soccer game this morning and scored 2 goals! They don't keep score at this age and it is probably better that way. Our team scored the most goals, but half of them where on the wrong side lol.....it was so cute to watch! I will include some soccer pics in the next post. Which by the way will have to be later.......I am going to get ready for our date night tonight! I cant wait.....I will have no kids, dinner and Kevin all to myself Yea! So check back often because at least for the next several months I will be using this to keep track of the kids, updates from Kevin and my many thoughts :)
