Thursday 10

Another edition of Thursday 10 is upon us! I know I have missed the last couple weeks, but I will try to do better!

1. I can't believe I have not blogged about this, but Ashley started walking last week!! Last Tuesday, January 6th, I was sitting at the computer in the morning checking e-mails after getting Alec to school and I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. It was Ashley walking across the room!! I quickly grabbed my camera and brought her out to the family room and got some video of it. She is so funny when she walks because she looks like a little Frankenstein and she just laughs the entire time like it is the funniest thing in the world! She has been practicing more and more every day then about three days ago was when I noticed that when she wanted to get across the room she would walk instead of crawl. LOVE IT!!! My camera is at my parents house so I don't have the video downloaded, but I will have it by this weekend and put it on.

2. I finally caught Aaron saying his pledge of allegiance on video. I will add that on this weekend as well. I can tell that the novelty of saying it is wearing off so I wanted to make sure and catch it before he refused to say it anymore.

3. This weekend is our Goddaughter Kasey's 3rd birthday!! Adam will be in Arizona with his explorers all weekend but myself and the three kids will be heading down to San Diego to celebrate on Saturday. We are doing a turn around trip, so it should be interesting!!

4. My mom and I are having Geo Challenge wars on Facebook. It is too funny because two day ago I beat her by 4 points, and then this morning she called me to let me know that she beat my score by a couple hundred points. What did I do this morning instead of getting stuff done around the house? I played Geo Challenge. But guess what? I just beat her by around 1000 points!! haha!!! I know, we both need to get a life!!

5. Adam and I took Alec golfing for the first time last weekend and we had so much fun! We did a 9 hole course in Brea that is nice and cheap. Alec had a blast hitting the golf balls and sinking puts. He was EXHAUSTED by the end of the day and actually slept 12 hours that night!!

6. Happy anniversary to my Mom and Dad, celebrating 38 years tomorrow!! You are a wonderful example of a Christ centered marriage for us all to follow!

7. Yesterday was the 2nd anniversary of my Dad's heart bypass surgery. He is still doing great and is enjoying life!

8. With the new year comes lots more planning of upcoming events. Tricia (my fellow room mom) and I are already working on Valentines Day party, Baby Shower for Mrs. Knapp, St. Patricks Day party AND Easter party. I swear, I am going to blink and this year will be over!

9. Congrats to my cousin Jason and his wife Cristina who just found out at Christmas that they are expecting a baby! They have a daughter who is 7 and are thrilled to be adding to their family! We love you guys!

10. Prayers please for Baby Jamie who 1 month old and in the hospital on a ventilator with RSV and major breathing problems. Looks like he is on the road to recovery but prayers are still needed. Prayers also for Adam's Uncle Dan who just found out that he has prostate cancer. They found it early and will hopefully be able to treat it with just radiation. Again, prayers please!!
