Brown Bear, Brown Bear What do you See?

As you know McKenzie loves to make animal noises and she also loves to read. Here she is making the noises for "Brown Bear, Brown Bear What do You See?". She's just learned the frog and cat this past week. She also changed the way she barks for a dog.


In other news McKenzie is now going potty in her potty. We're not really potty training her but I put her on it when she wakes up and before bath, etc. She's been using it about 3 or 4 times a day. She gets so excited and says "pee pee" when she goes in the potty. I'm so proud of her!


As for Jason - he got a job! He's in the operations part of a company called Win Ware. They make computer stuff for those big tool cabinets. That's all I know about it. He's really happy and the company is really cool. There are 2 people from the church that work there so he already knows a couple of people.


As for me - I'm busy with school. I'm department chair to a department that doesn't really know anything about social studies, so I work really hard with all of that. I'm also taking gfted endorsement classes. Its like being in college again. Its so much fun! I'm also going to take part in the Teaching American History Grant starting this spring. I should find out more about that soon.


That's all for the Williams family right now... more pictures/ videos to come soon!!

The Best Day

Today was pretty much the best day ever. We woke up this morning and Jason brought McKenzie in the room to hang out in the bed with us. I just love starting my morning off this way but it rarely ever happens because we seem to be busy all the time. Then we got dressed and went and got the lawn mower from Ben's house (Jason's business partner). It was so wonderful outside today ... in the 60s this morning so jeans were necessary. Jason mowed the yard and the neighbor's yard and then it was time for the real fun to begin. FSU football season. Here is McKenzie's reaction to the start of the season.



This is probably my proudest moment as a mommy so far. She's watching this all on her own. She started the war chant because she can hear it in the background and then when the Noles took the field she started clapping. She knows her Seminoles!

Well after the game/ when McKenzie woke up we went to Marietta for Sonny's. Our Sonny's is amazing because this month is teacher appreciation month and we got 10% off and McKenzie always eats free. I thought this was a Sonny's thing but apparently its just our Sonny's. The only thing is we have to make the 20 min drive to Marietta. On the way home we stopped in at Barnes and Noble because Paulding County doesn't have a bookstore and I needed and etiquette book for a class I'm teaching at school. McKenzie loved playing with the train table.

When we got home we took a walk/wagon ride around the neighborhood and the played on the swing. It was so nice outside we just loved being out there. We came back in and watched Ole Miss get upset by Jacksonville State and then put Kenz to bed. Jason and I have been watching football and I've also worked on my Gifted Class assignments (that's another post).

Today has been the best. I love having days with just me, Jason and Kenz where we can really hang out ... nothing else to do.

Here are some pictures of McKenzie in her new Seminole shirt ... I've been wanting this one since Jason and I found out we were having a baby. It says product of FSU Alumni!
