1. Paper football
Sunday, March 01, 2009
For the month of March, I'm going to try and post a picture every day, a little way to:
1. Document a month in our lives.
2. Remind me to bring my camera out more.
3. Improve my photography skills.
I hope to use my "big" camera most days (Canon 20D) but when I forget it the iPhone will have to substitute. At least until I can convince Nick that I really need that pocket camera...
Here's #1:
At Ashley's Restaurant in Rockledge, FL. With no kids menu's (meaning nothing to color/play) we resorted to paper football. The kids LOVED it!

Researching Vacations
Wednesday, February 18, 2009
Wanting to book some kind of "babymoon" for the 4 of us, choices are:
New York City
Atlantis, Bahamas - we don't have passports though, not sure how long it takes to get them
Florida Keys - anywhere
Renting a beach house somewhere along the coast of Florida
Disney
Obviously, looking for child-friendly vacations. Nick can't take off work at all so it will only be the weekend, leaning towards Disney because of that. Plus, they have their $99 FL resident thing right now...but...it's Disney, ugg...
Thinking maybe we'll rent a beach house close by for later in the summer, after the baby's born, for just me and the kids (Nick can come by after work), but not sure if I'm going to want to do that. Also, Lexi's DYING to go to New York (and so am I) so I would like to do it now before the baby's born, but is 2 days enough? The only 3 day weekend we have is Memorial day, and I'm sooooo not wanting to travel then.
Would love to go on a cruise, but they changed their guidelines so now pregnant women aren't allowed after 22 weeks, so much for that....
Back to research!

Whoop!

I did it, I got an A on my test! One part of it at least, I won't know my grade on the written part until next week, but I think I did well. I was going to take just the written part last night and go back Wed night for the 2nd computer part, but I decided I'd studied all I could study, and the idea of driving back to Orlando again was not appealing, so I pulled up my big girl panties and went for it. Despite the fact that my eyes were so tired I couldn't see clearly (I also lost my glasses last week, so that didn't help), and I didn't get done until 11pm, I still got an A!!!
This is extremely exciting because this class is known for being INCREDIBLY hard. In fact, it is so hard that employers will look at your grade in this class first to decide if you really know your stuff. And my teacher said only about 5% of students will end up with an A in the class, with less than that making an A on the first test. SO HURRAY!!
I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders, for this week at least. 1 test down, 2 to go!
