Long Time Listener...First Time Blogger

We did it...We joined the cyber age of blogging! I was told I couldn't use this as my escape from sharing our lives with actual people...darn...I think this would be easier at times. Anyway to begin this "chapter" I would start off by saying that this is pretty cool, I get to share our families firsts, struggles, success' and everything else in between with those who are interested...and Mom even though you will be the only one to check this more often then anybody, I am glad to still share this with you...even if you are the only one who reads my nonsense.

So today as I see it, I hope that my optimistic mind will continue on it's journey of self worth by continually telling myself that I will write a book, I will run a marathon (half marathon...is there such thing as a 1/4 marathon?) and I will love my chaotic life because the light at the end of the tunnel has been handed to us by non other than the creator himself, and that lights name is Micah.

With that being said, I can't tell you how how that "light" tends to burn brighter when the gas that that creator guy decided to put in our body is full! And it is lethal! Since Micah turned 1 he is on whole milk and people food (not sure why they call it people food, isn't all food eatable by all people...not just babies). Moving on, he is trying to walk and is successfully not, he took his first step yesterday, well not sure it's a step considering he fell into my arms as he let go of the wall. Nonetheless he is on his own time table and he will do things as he pleases, and that's ok with mom and dad right now. And who would of thought that mac n cheese actually can get stuck in any and all creases of one's body! If I ever turn into one of those "one up" moms please somebody knock me off my pedestal cause I loath the thought of being one of "those" moms!

Anyway, as I end my first blog I leave you with this...

Until next time...

Hello & Goodbye to Sum•mer

sum·mer 1 ˈsəmər/ noun 1 .  the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February. I just wanted to give myself a second to really think about this thing called summer. Anyone else think this definition is just a little bit vague? It's that time of year where we get all excited to have ZERO schedule, endless electronics, the chance to travel and cram in all of the fun you planned for all year long. Then when this so called "summer" ends, you feel bamboozled, like someone just waved that 4th of July pie you went to that party to specifically eat, right in front of your face only to look...not eat. Like seriously, it was here, right in front of my face, and now... it's gone. Now, now we pack lunch every night, we get our homework in (which I don't even understand), we figure out which parent is going to be the taxi for the day, we actually have to ...

She Turned 7!

SEVEN, she did it again... who does she think she is trying to get another year older on us. In all seriousness, she is SEVEN. Like, what happened to 5 and 6? Let me tell you what 7 looks like on my little Pripri... Just a few things about this girl 1. Guess who her favorite person is...duh. Micah 2. She is soooo much more compassionate and caring than I could have ever imagined. 3. She might be 7, however her attitude screams teen! She is sensitive but oh so brave and she is never afraid to take on new adventures! 4. Her best friend is still, you guessed it, Maggie. 5. Right now she is playing softball (second season) and is having a ton of fun. Cheerleading is still on her brain, but for now, we will stick with this. 6. When she laughs, you can't help but laugh with her. Her laugh alone will make you light up. 7. Her favorite things include: Unicorns, Bear (her pink one), Unicorns, Mermaids, those fake glasses (see pic below), her American Girl Doll (pic above), Uni...

The Big Apple

{deep breath}… We did it, we made it, and we are still alive to talk about it… We made it to and from New York City with our sanity in hand! Actually we got back on the 11th of October but it has taken me a few weeks to recover from the trip, I needed a little space between me and NYC, and now that I am feeling whole again I am ready to revisit our trip. When Matt and I were invited to my college teammates wedding in NYC there was NO WAY I was missing it. For one, she’s amazing and I was soooo pumped for her, and 2… it’s NYC! My only discrepancy was to take the kids or to leave them. Well when we asked my parents if they would be willing to take them while we were away, it turned into “sure we will watch them… in NYC!” So there it was the making of a weeklong family trip to the big apple. For those of you who know how type “A” I am, I am sure you could imagine how overwhelmed I became in thinking of all the things we were going to do while we visited, so when mom and dad said we...
