The Farm

Sometimes when we go through big life changes, I put off blogging.  I don't like oversharing about our life, but I still feel that these things should be acknowledged.  No, I am not pregnant.  Anyway, Max got a new job!  He wasn't looking for a new job, but happened to come across an opening for his dream job.  In Denver!  Most of the jobs that he would want in this specific area would be in Chicago, so it seemed too good to be true.  And of course, the economy being what it is...we figured it was a very, very long shot.  But he got an offer about 3 weeks ago and has been working there ever since.  Charles Schwab just sent him on his way when he gave his 2 weeks since he was going to another trading firm.  So...it is very exciting and crazy and I hate life changes, even the very good life changes.

Anyway, I feel like I can blog again.  My dad took Max and Trey to his friend's farm the other day.  Oh my gosh.  Trey was in HEAVEN!  He actually got to drive a tractor.  I don't think he could have been more excited.  After he got the hang of it, he would not let my dad touch the wheel.  My dad and Max said that Trey just drove it in one BIG circle.  He also saw lots of animals and was so excited to tell me about them.  Trey is a very funny talker.  Sometimes he just babbles, but then sometimes he talks like an adult and says things like, "No mom.  I want to do this myself."  Or yesterday he took  my hand, walked me to the garage and said, "Come with me.  I need to go to my grandma's house now."  Or every time I get off the phone or we meet someone new he asks, "Who was that Mom?"  It is very strange.

Okay, now that is done and my mom will stop bugging me to get the pictures so she can do Trey's scrapbook.  Don't be jealous.  My mom does my kids scrapbook's.  I need to start doing them myself, but honestly.  She is just so much better at it than me.
