Cute Audrey Pictures

Audrey has been making this new face and I was trying to capture it this morning...i'm not sure if I completely got it, but I thought they were still cute.

You know you are living in 2009 when...

1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.

8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

9. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.

10. You start tilting your head sideways to smile.

new couch

we went shopping this weekend for a new couch. we gave becky back her futon and figured we should buy a new couch for the living room. we got a sofa bed. Here is a picture of it. we have since covered it with some sheets so that murphy and the poms wont get it all gross. we may rearrange the room, but for now it works.

I also had to order the last two books in the twilight series and needed to buy a few more dollars worth of books to get the free shipping. so i remembered there were kids books about "Emily Brown" that i HAD to get. its actually a pretty good book. ryan was making fun of me for getting it. but i think he is just jealous that no books are written about him.

loving the cold weather!

the ground has FINALLY frozen in PA. And i am loving it!! people at work are complaining and complaining...almost as much as those syracuse people are :) ha ha ha. I'm telling you you'd miss it if you didnt get it.

i've been very busy at work lately...havent had any time to blog...plus not too much is happening. I've upped my gym visits to 3x a week. I've been sore 5 of the last 9 days :( but its good i guess. this saturday i am starting weight watchers...again... they have commericials showing a new program. hopefully it can get me motivated again. I have to lose some weight before mexico.
















Audrey is growing like crazy...talking...scooting on the floor...sitting up on her own...drinking juice...found her tongue...her first word is officially da da da...then ba ba ba...i'm still trying her to get her M but nothing yet. she has started to push away from me too- i'm afriad her cuddling days are almost over. she wants to get down and see the dog hair :)

Audreys new lobster shoes

a while

wow i havent posted in a while... well i was on a New york state tour for the past 10 days...i'm finally home and i slept like a baby for 11 hours last night :) i brought my rain cd and cd player along with me, but it didnt seem to help my sleeping. i guess its your own bed that makes all the difference. i just finished unpacking all our christmas presents. i feel awful because christmas morning was such a blur to me know i cant remember who got me/audrey what. but i love everything! i cant believe all a 6 month old could possibly get. people from my work, ryans work, all the family, and friends got her stuff. she has way too much now :) luckily some of it is for when she is older though. she absolutly loved her curious george doll she got and is so cute everytime she sees it she grabs and like hugs him with a little squeal. she found her voice on the trip too. she usually would talk and sing and 'tell stories' only in the morning. now it seems all the time and she definately is saying words, like 'dadadadada' and 'bababababa' i dont think she knows what they mean but i think officially her first word is 'dada'. i'm still working on mama.
New years was fun...besides a debate i got into with bird on affirmative action it went smoothly...no puking...only a slight hangover, which is probably due to all the drinking i did last week- it built my tolerance back up. i think my news years resolution to be to cut down on the sauce.
today i unpacked and made a bunch of baby food for audrey, tomorrow i am going to tackle the christmas decorations. i'm glad we came back with a few days to spare. i needed it.
