Breaking Bad Habits

Do any of you remember reading this book?

In it Mama Bear realizes that her family watches way too much tv, and so she turns it off for a week. Unfortunately for me, I'm not like Mama Bear...I'm a huge part of the problem at my house. I have realized lately that I watch way too much TV, and even when I'm not watching it's just on as background noise! SO, It taking Mama Bear's challenge! Now, I'm not pulling Shawn into my experiment yet, because he's not as bad as me:)

The crazy thing is that we don't even have cable...oh goodness, think about how bad I would be if we did...I'd spend all day in front of the DIY channel.

So, my challenge starts tomorrow. So, wish me luck...I'll keep you updated!

Shawn's Birthday!

Thanks to the help of my wonderful mother, I was able to take Shawn away for a night to Mount Elbert, for his birthday! We had so much fun playing with Leilah, relaxing, hiking, and taking a ton of pictures. Here they are!

So Talented at 8 Months!

Look at the progress this little sweetie is making! I can't believe that she's learning and growing so fast! I think she learns something new everyday. It is wonderful to watch, but makes me a little sad that she''s growing up so fast. this all happened within the first 2 weeks of turning 8 months old. So far it has been such a fun month, and I know it will only get more fun with halloween coming. W also had the chance to take her to her first college football game. For some reason I can't download all of my pictures so here are a few...including her 8 month picture!




Sorry about the camera on its side and flipping over...I guess just watch it laying on your side:)
