37 is here...

Well, it happened. Another year has come and gone. I am officially 37. I am sure I will stop counting (or at least posting the number for all to see) when I hit 40...that will not be pretty.


For now I will simply enjoy the excuse to eat cake!  Thanks, family, for celebrating with me.

Aeva's Winter Walk

In an effort to not have to exercise INSIDE my house every day, I will often subject Aeva to the outdoors in the middle of winter.  Always with the appropriate clothing and gear.  See below...we have hat, gloves, coat, blanket and finally, the most important piece of equipment, the DVD player.  We are ready to roll.


Some would accuse me of poor parenting at this point.  Who makes their child watch a movie while they go exercising?  Well, if you knew what DVD she had chosen for the occasion, you would feel differently.  Any guesses?  Mamma Mia.  She picked it all by her little self.  Since Mamma Mia is a musical, I figure it makes it somewhat of a cultural event for the two of us.  No guilt about throwing her in the stroller with electronics to keep her busy.  In the end, she made it through the hour of sitting and I made it back home.  A successful trip!  

Dora's Back

Aeva's new favorite show is Dora the Explorer. She goes through phases and this one is lasting a while. Maddie and Gracie are ready to have a "no TV week" just so they don't have to hear the Dora the Explorer song every time they come home from school.


My job is to lovingly remind them that they too used to jump, sing and yell things at the television when prompted to do so.  Ahhhhh, the memories.

Jazz Game 2012

Troy and I made it to our annual Jazz game!


No clue why we look like this.  Maybe because the Jazz are winning?  Tons of fun.

Go to work with daddy day.

Troy works 4-10's and stays home on Thursdays so that I can head to work. On occasion, he has to go into work on Thursdays too. That means that Aeva has to go to work too.


Day at work for Aeva involves chicken nuggets.


Happy Meal toys.


And playing on computers.  I think she is up for the job.
