Amber, Mom, Wife, Cheerleader, Student, Captain, Christian, and now Blogger.

What is in a name? A title? For most of us our names are followed by a longer list of subtitles. Oh Ashley... She is such a "Nice girl" Oh sarah, she can be a real "Witch" It occured to me today, the first day I had a day all to myself and actually had time to sit down and think, that I myself, have acquired quite a few titles in the short 21...soon to be 22 years that I have been blessed to live.What also occured to me, is that I have so many different things in my life that require my attention that it is hard to find and prioritize time for all of them. So many times I am asked.."How do you do it?" Well I will be the first to tell you, its not easy, in fact sometimes it is a miracle I even make it out of bed. It can get hectic and overwhelming in this house, But thankfully, I have an amazing husband to pick me up when I feel like the world has used me as its personal punching bag. It IS hard being a mother, I won't rant now on that issue, but I am sure it will come out in due time. So here it is, my very own blog, venting place, and a chance for you to see what its like Keeping up with the Kennisons.

So whats been going on with us lately? Izzy now has TWO teeth coming in and I don't care what they try to say, ain't nothing going to fix the pain of teeth shoving their way through your gums but a nice Loratab, and well we all know better then that, so poor Izzy has been pouty and fussy, and mom is sleep deprived. She has also figured out how to crawl upstairs, but thankfully our house doesn't have any.
  We all had a wonderful thanksgiving and it was the first time we all could be together in years. So with good, naturally comes the bad... 16 people from our dinner got some AWFUL stomach virus, 8 of which were staying with mom at her house, Needless to say, it looked like a hospital ward for the next few days.
    Other then that it has been a wonderful week and Matthew and I are just getting ready for finals. I dont know how to end a blog, so until next time ;)
