Aidan is FINALLY playing hockey!

First of all, I'd like to thank my Aunt Sarah for making these pictures even possible. Secondly I would like to say that I had sooo much fun watching Aidan. I could tell he built a lot of confidence and he improved a great deal on Saturday. He even skated by himself a little. I'm so glad he likes it and am really looking forward to th rest of the season! I LOVE the toothless grin.

Happy Birthday Misty!

I can't say Happy Birthday to one sister without saying Happy Birthday to another! To the sister who was my friend long before I was old enough to make any others. To someone who is very resilient and can take trials with dignity. To a soft-hearted sister who wears her heart on her sleeve. I love you. You've grown into a passionate mother and a fun loving person. Happy Birthday to my wonderful sister! Let's go shopping!

Happy Birthday Jen!

I would just like to say Happy Birthday to my first (but not only) sister-in-law. To the woman who is such an inspiration not only in raising children, but also showing me how to be a good wife and be supportive to my kids and my husband. Who teaches me by example to find joy in every day and to laugh of the things that aren't funny because life is too short. I hope you have such a good day; you deserve it. And make sure you find some time today for crafts. ;)

I'm not ready for these kind of Conversations.

Aidan: "Mommy, I want a baby."

Me: "You want a little brother or sister?"

Aidan: "NO! IIII want a baby!"

What to say, what to say? Hurry, think quick! Me: "When you're much older and you're married, you and your wife can have a baby together like Mommies and Daddies."

Aidan: "No. I want a baby."

OH DEAR! All I could do at that point was laugh.

Go Cougars!! Seriously, one of the BEST football games I've seen in a long time! You guys deserve it, be happy. I know I am, and I don't even like football.
