HI FRIENDs!!

Hey friends! So, I have been hearing soooo much about the blogging world and how cool it is to stay in touch with friends near and far!! I decided to check out some of yours and it was sooo fun to see what so many of you are up to and how much your kids have grown and fun trips youve taken to even the day to day things. Its like getting a sneak peak into your lives!!!
Just to update you a little Chris is doing good he is working hard being involved with the family Biz he is mostly working in EL Vegas right now and is working really hard to stay well rounded you know.....mind, body and spirit! he is humbly pimping along! We as a couple are going strong this year we will have be married 6 years on may 29th!! CAN I GET A WOO-WOO!! We have been dating since we were 16 years young and that means we have been sweet lovin eachother for a grand total of 12 years long!!! We have had our share of ups and downs but things are definitely on the upside of life right now and hopefully for the long haul.......
Trinity is 5 years old and is sometimes referred to as the "lil' Mom" she is strong, smart, a leader, ready to get into action,spitfire and BEAUTIFUL!!! she takes my breathe away.....sometimes she makes me want to tear my hair out....that is only because she is here to keep me in line and keep my patience in check! I adore her she is so many things that I am not naturally. we are polar opposites and also so much the same. Trin starts kindergarten this fall . Its sooo exciting and sad at the same time! one emotion is where has the time gone?? I am so upset with myself for not being more present through her toddler years! and also, how fun she gets to ride the bus and make new friends, learn new and exciting things about her abc's, 123's about life and herself and her independence. It is a major stepping stone and like I said something I am dredding and something I am looking forward to with anticipation!! Now, she is scared because she is afraid of the principle (she has been listening to Junie B. Jones and though I find it hysterical I'm not sure what its telling her?) and she is excited to be a "Big gil". We love our Toto.
Our lil' Gage Aka: Gager, Rager, 1 Gage (cause he is 1), Hazard (come to find out that was my dad's childhood nickname, it runs the family.... the trouble making that is.) We are having sooo much fun with him!! We are trying sooo hard to be much more present with him and all the wonders of him. watching him soak everything up like a sponge....we are so fascinated by every new skill, every new lightbulb that turns on, every giggle, every word!! It is such a fun age and not mention energy draining! I love the dynamic of Gage and Trin. She is such a helper afterall, she the "mini mom" and he adores her he calls her "tri" and follows her around like a lil' puppy. speaking of puppies he loves em'!! it is almost an obsession he can see a dog a mile away and squeels with delight followed by "daw, daw, daw, daw, daw......." We were in the airport and there was this massive long haired, lab, cop dog he was like a bear. he saw it a mile away and all the above mentioned. the cop walks cautiously up to us as i was casually making small talk with the police officer when he politley interupted me to let me know how amazing it was that my little boy had not an ounce of fear of this huge beast of a dog and in fact did not blink an eye as he softly stroked the "daw" it was a pretty cool sight!! it makes me laugh now.......anyway....I love our lil' dude he is soooo fun! He is a boy all the way! and we love him for it!
As for I!! I am doing PRETTY, GOOD, ALRIGHT! as my father would say! I really,truly don't have any complaints......any valid complaints anyway lol! Life has never been better! I have definitely realized life is what you make it and happiness is right now! and attitude is the majority of it! my family life is fulfilling and all I ever wanted in life! I count my blessings over and over. I have goals to look forward to and the moment to keep me content........
