Hello to all!

Well...It's been a while since I have posted. I should be studying, I have an exam on Monday...but I've already procrastinated, so I figure I'll procrastinate a little more!



Anyway...



I guess I really want to thank my mom and dad for coming and staying with us for 2 whole weeks! (mom, dad...you have no idea how much that meant to me/us.) We're a pretty tight schedule oriented family (there's a time and a place for more most things, and we don't like to stray from that "too" much :O), so I think that was a little bit hard for my parents to get used to...but we appreciate you "playing along" with the madness, and accepting and respecting how we raise our little ones.


You were such a big help, and it really meant so much to not only have your help, but to have your company! We love you and can't wait to see you soon!


Oliver is still talking about grandma j and grandpa jon!!!!....I think he misses building towers with you dad, because whenever we get the blocks out, he asks for grandpa jon.




A lot is going on here it feels like.... Aaron is busy with work, I'm still trying to get through school, which I love by the way, and am very excited about the direction it's taking me. I will find out in November if I get into Nursing School...so I am very anxious about that...but I WON'T hold my breath :O).

Aaron has CONVERTED me to biking, and I LOVE IT SOOO MUCH!!! I don't have my own road bike yet, but I have been using his to get me to and from school...and I really just can't begin to say how much I love it.

I feel like Growing up (grade school-high school), riding a bike wasn't really the thing to do...I don't remember many people doing it.


Being in this area though, EVERYBODY and their dogs bike... "babies come out of the womb knowing how to ride a bike!" (a funny saying about the kids here)


It's nice to exercise, get fresh air, and rely on your OWN energy, to get you to and from places! Our next purchase is going to be a bike trailer and double jogging stroller in one. Aaron can't wait to get oliver into one of those trailer's and see how he likes it!!!! We think he will really LOVE it! And I for one CANNNOT wait to get the double so I can take both oliver and eliza running with me....


I ran the dish for the first time with a double jogger (borrowed).... with my great friend brooke and her little one McKenzie. It was really hard, but it was REALLLY REALLY fun! So I am very anxious to finally get a double jogger. It was eliza's first time going on a run with mama and oliver... and I think she really liked it! She was wide awake the whole time, and she didn't peep once!


Anyway....I think that is enough info. for now :O)



Things are going well here, and I guess I will just check in a little later! Oh, My friend Ashley is coming to visit this Saturday, and I am VERY much looking forward to spending time with her!!!


So I guess I will be back probably after Halloween....giving you an update on how all of that goes!!!
