The first ever blog post for me..

Ok- I know that sounds stupid; but hey it is true. This is first ever for me. I am excited to learn new things and I guess this class is going to test my ability to do so at a very rapid pace.

Who I am-
I am a mom of two beautiful boys. Rylan my 31 month old and Aydan my 24 months old. Yes you did read that right. The boys are 7 months, 5 days, 4 hours, and 26 minutes apart. You ask how did we do that. Buckle your seats belts for this one. Woody (my husband) and I adopted Rylan in December of 2005 after 2 failed pregnancies. Two weeks latter we where *blessed* when Rylan slept the whole night through. Aydan, our second child, is a gift from God. You see, Aydan was born 10 weeks early and weight 2 1/2 pounds. We tease Aydan that he wanted a window seat in life because in the Newborn ICU he had the bed by the window. Don't worry Aydan is doing everything that big bother Rylan can do.

What I like to do-
Hmm that is a loaded question. I have my hands into everything. My friends tease me that it is not a normal day for the boys and I if something doesn't happen. The top things that I love to do is playing with the boys, ridding my horse, gardening, anything having to do with fiber textiles and school. Ok, so the school thing is when there is a subject that grabs my attention.

Why I am taking this class-
I had this bright idea that it would be fun to take some human development classes to stay one step ahead of the boys. Not really. I really want to be a part of there schooling and Woody and I felt that it would best for me to go back to school and get my Early Child Development degree so I can be a *more qualified* part of their schooling.
