McKenna Racing by Roderick John

"Here he comes, here comes speed racer!" And I am not talking about Kasey Kahne.  I am talking about my Papa!!!
Check out that racing suit
Me and the Champion
Check out the race car
65 Shelby Cobra (is that right Papa? My mom always get confused)

Dear Papa,

WOW! What a race! This is my first post on the blog.  I had so much fun watching you win FIRST place last weekend. It was a little noisy but I didn't mind. You raced around that track so fast and I am still talking about it" VROOOM". I can't wait to see you race again! Remember Papa, even if you don't win first place every time, you will always be #1 to me. I go you Papa!!!

Much Love,
Roderick"who loves to eat cookies" John

Multi-Tasking Mothers

So I left both kids home with my husband for no more than 2 hours last night. After one hour, I got a text that said, "both kids crying and I have no idea why. HELP!" By the time I got home, he was starving! When I asked why he never ate dinner he said, "how could I Amy? I had both kids." Hmm... wonder how I do it EVERYDAY? Clearly, I need more nights out...  More nights like these!!!!  LADIES???

What does a cold beer taste like? What does the inside of a bar look like? What does it feel like to be up at 1:00 am without feeding a crying baby? I forgot.  I think a good way for Daddy to get some practice multi-tasking is by having a girls night out! Happy Mother's Day to me!!!

Catching Up

Have you missed me? I told you my blogging was going to slow down a bit.  I honestly feel I have never been this busy in my entire life.  For the first time ever, my job as a 3rd grade teacher feels like a piece of cake.  Let me just take a minute to get you up to speed.  The last few weeks we have been...
Working on the ProCert
Coloring Easter eggs
Coloring LOTS of Easter eggs
Showing some skin while coloring LOTS of Easter eggs
Playing with the coolest Easter basket
Playing with Sissy (the unhappy Easter bunny)
Hunting for Easter eggs
Oh, and working on the ProCert
Playing with cousins
Meeting our NEW cousin Jaxson Lee Hamilton
(welcome to the family little mister XO)
Baking cakes
Getting dressed like a big boy (I'm pretty sure that right sock will fall off in 2 seconds)
The last few weeks we have been
 
happy just being
our little family of 4
Did I mention that I have been working on the ProCert?

Stay tuned guys.  When life slows down a bit, you know, when I finish my ProCert, find someone to rent our condo, and move into our new house, I will be back with some exciting new blogs.  So go ahead and enjoy your weekend and please, don't miss me too much.  Happy Friday!
