hunting season

I CANNOT believe that hunting season is here....ALREADY!   Devin is off being "All that is man,"  I am home being, "All that is MOM."
We have been busy during our days playing, shopping, cuddling, coloring, painting, reading books, and my attempt at wrestling and playing "horsey" which is normally Devin's job.  Today it is finally sunny, so we will be taking advantage of some bike riding and the park.  My mom has been coming over for dinner and has been helping me with the evening routine of baths, books, and bedtime.  Which I am so thankful for- this is the time when I am usually about to pull my hair out when I am on my own!!!
3 days done this week- Devin will be home tonight and then takes off for another week on Monday with his dad and bro-in-law.  Hoping to stay healthy- as I normally have a track record of getting very sick during hunting season (which I blame on working with Kinders and the start of school) Luckily, Devin is bow hunting this year, which is an earlier season than rifle- hoping this works to my advantage!
Someday (I keep telling myself), I will get a week and a half vacation to myself too.  While Devin takes our boys into the woods to fulfill their manhood- I will spend it shopping and reading and pampering myself-  I think that will only be fair!   Well here's to dreaming...
Until then here we are-
