random thoughts

After reading my sister's blog about ramblings, I thought it would be a good way to get down all the updates and thoughts. Idea also stolen from this gal.


******

blogging
i just don't do it much anymore.
can't get motivated.
just don't have the time.

******

i have been working on mine since 2007.
i am not as diligent as my sister and
i am now 2 years behind.

******

depressing
the snow is making me depressed
and i hate being teased with spring weather.
outdoor activities are all i want to do now
so please, no more snow!

******

walking
taylor still isn't walking.
she pretend walks on her knees.
i just bought more pants because 
she keeps tearing holes.
she is scared to even try.
but...we have made progress and
she pulls herself up on everything,
walks a little more stable with our help, 
and walked holding only one hand with me last night!

******

pictures
i just sent my camera off with my mom
while they go on a 2 week cruise.
just in time for my little digital camera to break.
so there may be a lack of pictures for awhile.

******

home
we still don't own a home.
7 1/2 years of marriage and we have backed out
2 times from buying a home.
and we are now just about to back out for the 3rd time.
we have been asked to take care of 
another house in PC come this July.
so yet another year of not owning a home.
i have to admit...it is a little relieving 
not making that big leap.

******

studying
eric is back to studying, studying, studying.
he is working on getting ready to take the GMAT.
and then start applying to grad school.
another reason why we are backing out 
of buying a home right now.
we don't know where we will end up.

******

vacation
we need a vacation.
to someplace warm.
just time to get away for some fun.
any suggestions?

******

prego update
only  3 1/2 months to go!
i have not bought one item for this baby boy.
my sister gave me all her clothes she had for jack
and i feel like i just don't need to get anymore.
besides shopping for a boy is so boring.
i find myself in the girl section
 buying for taylor every time.
it is much more fun. 
i just got her this easter dress.

******

bedding
i am sewing, sewing, sewing.
i have been working on tons of orders 
and now i am making my sister's little girl bedding.
go here for her choice of fabrics.
i am grateful for the business
and i love making bedding.
go here to see the latest.

so should I brag and say it's been sunny and warm all week? Jack and I just spent the afternoon at the park and I think I got a little sunburned. I'll take a trip to a warm destination with you somewhere-let's talk mom into joining us.
shopping for a boy is way more fun! I think it's harder shopping for a girl-all that pink, yuk! you'll soon see that dressing a boy is soooooooo much easier. no need to coordinate.

I have so much to comment on your ramblings, I hear you about the blogging, and the walking she is getting so close it will be now time at all, and the vacation I want one too..

Ahhh. I meant to ask you what Eric was planning to study. So, is it management or do other programs use the GMAT as well?

I am wondering if you bought Taylor some knee pads, if the awkwardness of them would encourage her to walk. Also, it might help her get over her fear of falling if she wasn't worried about bumping her knees. At the very least, it might prevent her from wearing out those pants!

Talk about lot going on. I am glad that Taylor is getting a little braver. She'll take off on her own in no time. Sorry about the weather too. Hang in there!

I think you guys are lucky not to buy a house. We have no desire! Yesterday we decided we want to find a mission pres leaving in July so we can house sit his home for 3 years and avoid the plunge!!! Don't know how realistic it is, but that is our new plan!

So I've been way behind on blogging and I didn't realize you were pregnant. Congratulations! That picture of you and your sister is so cute.
