Hanson-isms

Hello to one and all out there! I know it has been a couple of months so let me catch you up on all the goings on around here. James is doing great. He is still a personal banker for Chase bank. It is going well. Hopefully we can start making the commissions we were hoping for. He has had to take on a second job :( to bring in some more money to cover bills. I hate it. He is never home it seems. He works from 8am to midnight every night of the week and works saturdays too. I know he is exhausted. But we try to keep in mind that this is only temporary. And hopefully it will end sooner than later. I am just grateful that he is willing to work so hard to provide for our family. I truly am blessed.
I am same ole, same ole :0) Although the lsat few months have been a real struggle. I have been so exhausted and sick. And after several doctors trips over the last four weeks, I found out that I have sever mono. GOOD TO KNOW!!!!!!!! That explained everything! But I am past the worst and hopefully in the next couple of weeks I will feel like a new woman. I am lazily trying to get some voice and piano students. I say lazily because I have not made much effort. You could say I really don't want to. I love being able to have my whole day to plan around me and my kids. And believe me, there is not enough time in a day for that. Laura is doing a great job on my photography website and it should be up and running in the next couple of months. I am so excited. Of course I really want to take pictures instead of teaching lessons. But for now I will pursue both!
Cherish is my little princess. She is so full of life, I really don't think that that is ever going to change. Some days I wouldn't mind trading her in, but most of the time I'll keep her :0) She is so funny. She has me laughing all the time. And she is so creative. I watch the way she does things and just think how on earth did she figure that out? Of course being two she is into lots of trouble and making lots of messes. I am helping her learn to keep her room picked up and organized, but man is it a process! I think we will start tackling the potty training soon too. She's not quite ready but almost!
Damon is my little ray of sunshine. He has his crabby moments, but overall he is so stinkin happy! He is cutting his botttom two teeth, so that has lead to some long nights. He is crawling everywhere. Especially down to sisters room to get into her toys:) And into the bathroom to watch mom get ready, and into the kitchen to look for scraps on the floor. It's hilarious how at this age it's like having a puppy! Damon is looking more and more like his dad everyday. I love it. I love having a James junior and a Hollie mimic. Although both kids personalities are opposite. Damon is so laid back, he is such an easy baby. I'm scared for the next one. But for now, I am enjoying every moment!
