Day one

So thanks to a mommy meeting I am excited to be posting my family's day to day adventures in a blog.  Then after the year is over I will print out a book.  You can do this at www.blog2print.com.  I think it is a great way to track my day to day life as well as the great adventures my family will have throughout the years.  Keeping a nice neat baby book has proven harder than I thought.  My daughter Sophia is five and I still find myself updating what happened in year one! So todays a new day and I can't wait to start.

Things that were wonderful about today.

1. It was a beautiful sunny day and I took the kids out for a walk. Sophia is riding her bike without training wheels so well. She learned at the end of last summer so there wasn't a ton of time for her to ride.  Now she can't wait to go outside to ride.  Dexter rode along happy as could be. He is such a happy baby.  He is laid back and just a fun boy.  He did a lot of dancing today while sissy was at school.  I love to play music for him.

2.  After eating dinner at the Great Wall we were reading our fortunes in the car.  I read mine first, then Travis and then we hear from the back "Hey! Here's mine....I can't read!"  I don't know why it was so funny but I bent over laughing so hard at Sophia.

3. Sophia came downstairs tonight after being put in bed and she was sleep walking. I asked her what she was doing and she said "Oh nothing" So I told her to go back to bed. Which she obliged!

4. Travis went out with a friend to a movie tonight. I think he needed it.  He is an amazing dad and sometimes he needs time away. I think all parents need a "me" night every once in awhile.

Well that's it for today. I think tomorrow will be fun. I am going to Champaign with my mama. We are going to a home and garden show. I need ideas for my yard.  I am super excited to have a yard worth planting things in and making it pretty!
