Hormones....

I am in my seventh month of pregnancy!  11 more weeks to go!  Yay!  Aiden has grown like a weed, and I have been so busy I didn't even have time to blog!  Well, my bunny died today, now generally I would have not cried of an animal I've owned for less than a month, but in this case, my pregnancy has got me being a real big tear jerker!  I squalled towards Steven, I was so upset!  I don't know if it was the fact that if an animal dies under my watch, then what about my children.  It hurts me to even think like that!  Poor thing, she was panting so hard, almost like she was having a stroke or something, and then her red eyes just turned grey.  I put her in my tub, I was hoping she was still alive, just playing tricks on me.  That has to do a lot with my kind heart also, I know animals don't go to heaven, and I feel like a little 4 year old, but it's sad to think that they have no soul.  They are sweet little innocent things, but God put them here for us to enjoy.  I'm glad Aiden wasn't here for it, which it is great that he wouldn't of understood, so I got through my first explanation of "Mama, where is Flopsey going"?  What do you even answer to that?  How do you?  That is one thing I am not good at at all is lieing, I can't sit there and tell my child, "Well dear, she is in heaven, and one day we will be with her,"  I mean, if I was that kid, and when I got to heaven, I would be so mad that my rabbit wasn't there!  I would of felt betrayed!  I guess that is just my weak point.  A mockingbird got to her though, I do believe I will shoot her when I see that bird again, then she will see where I'm coming from.  Then again, that is the hormonal me speaking!  Shooting a bird, over a rabbit???  That bird killed my $20 rabbit plus, it adds up with food, cage, and carrots!  Seriously that is a crazy thought though! 

Photography
My side job business has been booming!  I am so thrilled of all of the wonderful people that I have met, and especially because they gave ME a chance!  I am going to continue to further my education on it, and in about five years, I will open a studio up in Daleville!  I believe that will be a perfect location!  I have so much business lined up between now and next week!  This is fun though, and I love it!  It's nice to do something you love!  I hope you got a tickle, or a tear out of my rabbit story, but most of all, I hope it didn't make anyone think that I was sincerely crazier than what was thought of!  Goodnight and God Bless!

Busy Bee!

First, I would like to say Happy 10 Months to my precious baby boy Aiden!  He is so smart and is the love of my life!  I can't believe in two more months he will be 1!  Sophia will be here in thirteen weeks!!!  How crazy is that??  He can do so much and he just impresses me with something new every day!  I love him so much:) 

I have started my own business Charlotte King Photography, and so far it is going good!  I have done two photo shoots, and I have three more booked!  I enjoy doing this, and it is a great extra income, because I'm not ashamed at all by saying, we need it!  I will continue to have my children at home, but photography allows me to work also!  I have mainly been doing it on the weekends, going to Botanical Gardens and Landmark Park!  I just recently ordered my backdrop and lamp set to conduct indoor sessions!  I have some baby sessions here soon that I am super excited about!  I'm so glad that Steven supports my decisions on wanting to do this!  I have a photographer's workshop this Saturday, and I look very foward to that also!

I am so glad that I actually found someone, that is a Christian that I have tons in common with!  It is so hard to find common ground sometimes! 

As for me and the Army, I will hopefully be getting a Hardship, and getting out!  I am thankful for that!  I served my time, I have been to War, and now it is time for me to be a wife and a mom before others! 

The bunnies:  are a mess, and I am now starting to think "What was I thinking???!??"  They are cute and cuddely, but that is as far as it goes!  They will be moving outside very quickly!

The house is going up on the market this time for sure!  We have decided, with the riseing of gas prices, it is too costly for us to drive from home to Fort Rucker every day!  We found a great home in the Country with some land, and a very southern country home, just the way I want!  It has 3 1/2 acres, and a creek on it!  Perfect for my simple family:)  I have been praying very hard, and just asking GOD to guide us in making the right decision.  It will save us in gas, and it will be our "forever and ever home!"  I really hope our house sells quick!  We have completly redone the inside, and it is just beautiful for a small family or retired couple!  It will be listed beginning Monday with Remax!

I have been thinking on ways of improvement for me!  There is always room for improvement!  I have learned to be a little patient, and just listen before I speak (and also think before I speak!).  It is always something that is very challenging for me to do!  I have become a better house keeper and cook!  I am still learning though.  I just wake up in the morning, and I come up with what I'm going to cook for the day.  I'm not a big meal planner, I just cook what sounds good:) 

I hope everyone has a blessed day!  Hope all enjoyed!
