my not-so-little guy
♥
once
so small –
years gone by –
my little guy
has gotten so tall.
he is still just as cute
with a twinkle in his eye
and a giggle that warms my heart.
he was once my little baby boy
NOW a sixteen year old bundle of joy!

Peyton and his ‘corn’
Terms of endearment:
Jordan calls his brother Little Guy.
Peyton calls his brother Guy.
I call them both Pnut and a whole host of other names of which I cannot reveal or I risk being disowned.
a quickie Howdy Doo
Howdy Doo Y’all –
I wanted to let you in on a little excitement! I am very thrilled and I am about to burst……. Jordan is coming home this weekend!!!!!! In less than two days…..
He is taking the bus home on Friday afternoon. I pick him up at night around 10ish. He will be here through Monday and busing it back to campus on Tuesday. Monday is Columbus Day (this is a national holiday in the USofA) and school takes a mid-term break. He is primarily here to work at the amusement park – Six Flags Great America – where he labored this past summer. They have a big Halloween thingamajig where they decorate the park with scary ghouls, add a few haunted houses and several dozen ‘extra employees’ to walk around the park in makeup and costume. Their ghoul – oops, meant goal – is to scare the pants off the park patrons. My son will be amidst all of the activity with a camera – video taping the ‘going’s on’.
Jordan will be staying with Pee and I. Peyton will be out-of-town with his dad and step mom, visiting his step sister at her university. I am not certain what Pee will do. I am planning on taking her vroom in the car to pick him up. If I know my girl, she will cry, and give him lots of kisses. She will then give him the cold shoulder (he is the one that left her) and when all is said and done, she will be honky dory. (Translation: He takes her for a walk, gives her a boney, some tum tum and she gets first dibs on ‘her’ side of ‘her’ bed.). I have not seen Jordan since mid-August, the longest I have ever been parted from either of one my children. We have texted, emailed and Skyped, but I have not been able to hug him and this I miss terribly. I am hoping I do not squeeze him to bits:)
On a separate, yet related note, I realize I have been a bit distant on my reader. For the past three weeks, I have been preparing for the momentous arrival, which means I have been cooking. I made chili, chicken soup, Buffalo Mac & Cheese (his 3 faves), pulled pork carnitas and pumpkin oatmeal. I have had my trusty assistant tasting, I mean assisting – Peyton – who has indulged in all of the goodies. My freezer is filled to the brim.
I really have no big plans for the weekend except spend every second I can with Jordan – that is when he is not working. When he is working, I will be cooking – I still need to make my meatloaf, turkey burgers and granola. I will also shop for whatever it is he needs to take back to school.
I will keep in touch – I have so much on my mind – much to write. I will also take photos! I can’t help but wonder if Jordan has grown a bit more. (I grew an inch my freshman year in college.) I can tell already he has matured some, BUT I can bet all of his new-found maturity will be left at school – he is coming to stay with mom so why bother bringing it home?
Until I type again…….which will be soon……. Kimberly xx
oh – here are a few pics….

And stuff….
Hello – I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Saturday and a Happy Labor Day weekend to my fellow Americans. Pee and I are home alone this weekend. We have not much planned – I have begun writing the mother of all award thank you blogs. I have the usual house cleaning and I also have lots of writing to create for my company’s website. There will also be some biking on the trainer and running.
Jordan is away at school. He lives in a residence hall where everyone majors in a form of mass communications. He is the only underclassmen on his floor and shares a room with a sophomore, who is majoring in photography. He is adapting well, sounds great but tired. Keeping very busy, getting use to a college schedule (going to bed after midnight), likes his roommate, has made some friends and is already scheduled to start filming! He will be working on the university’s cable news program and sports events – yes, college football!
Peyton, as you already know, has begun his sophomore year, soccer and driver’s ed. He made the JV (junior varsity) soccer team, which for a sophomore, is quite an honor. He is, of course, the low man on the totem pole, but he is getting his butt kicked – no pun intended – and loving every minute of it. He is also digging the driving thing. I am certain this was obvious by his huge smile in the picture I took of him behind the wheel for the first time. I can tell he is missing Jordan and I can tell Jordan misses him. Apparently, Jordan texts his lunch and dinner menu everyday. Oy! Speaking of food, Peyton and I are going to be co-creating a blog. We hope to begin next weekend (we have been waiting for life to settle a bit). We have the concept and the site. I will let you know when we are up and running….
Sydnee is forlorn. The week after Jordan left was bad. She did not eat, had a lot of stomach distress and slept on his bed. When Peyton is here she lights up – when he leaves, she looks like the end of the world has arrived. I am doing my best to keep her at ease. She may be a dog, but she is my daughter and her brothers’ sister and she is having to adapt just like us.
I need to skidaddle, but before I do, I will leave you with some pretty cool photos taken last night at a soccer game which did not happen. Enjoy:)
Game time – 4:30pm
sky to the south 4:35pm
sky to the west taken at 4:35pm
northern sky taken at 4:35pm
Looked like fish scales.
sky overhead taken at 4:40pm
taking Peyton to dad’s at 5pm
There were huge wind gusts, blowing leaves, breaking and falling tree branches.
driving due west at 5:10pm
Due to rush hour traffic, I inched-wormed it home, so I was able to take photographs when I was not white knuckling the steering wheel. The wind was pushing my car sideways.
driving due west at 5:25pm
There was marble sized hail.
home at 5:45pm – FINALLY.
