alright....alright...alright

well my cousin jessica just updated her blog from mother's day...so i guess i should follow in her foot steps...

anyways...isabel is doing great she has had a lot of fun this summer by the pool, she is a great swimmer. we added her to our family plan at the YMCA and she has been taking lessons there. she missed the first two because of when we signed up and then went to only three classes before she graduated. she will be singed up for the new classes soon, and i will get to take her this time instead of my mom! very very exciting!!! Isabel is speaking in full five word sentences now and it crackes us up, she is sooo verbal. she must get that from elizabeth...hahahaha. the bad part is, is now we are forced to 'spell' certain words around her that we dont want her to understand, for instance, when we are talking about ice cream or treats - we have to spell it! it is really getting the best of me...hahaha...we all know i can't spell worth my life. she is sooo bright these days and looks nothing like a baby...she is all grown up...i will have to post pictures soon. i promise!!! isabel is still not feeling the getting her pictures taken by professionals yet...but seems to love it when i take pictures of her...a little odd but oh well...she is still my little clone...


for me: i start nursing school this october, the day before isabel's second birthday. i am very excited about that and am loving the fact of being a student again...i know im a nerd. life is going to start getting a lot better i know it...

Fun!!!

Okay so i went camping over the weekend, it was a blast. My legs are a little sore from all of the hiking...but it was a ton of fun. My friend Liz and I were treated like princess by her husband...so i guess i can't say and was really like camping...but it was good for my first time.
Isabel was with Keith this weekend, but she was sick...so they didn't get to do all that much.
This Friday is my mom's birthday so we will have fun with her on Friday...Elizabeth's divorce is finalized today (yay!!!). We are going out tonight to celebrate and we celebrated Dug's birthday last night.
Hopefully this weekend I can get the rest of my cleaning done so I am caught up on it completely...that is if i have no time this week...i hope i will. My place has never looked sooo clean before, but Isabel and I are gone all day so it would be hard to dirty it up.
Anyways, i will post some pictures of last weekend here soon.

Weekend!!!

Okay so i'm very excited. I am going camping this weekend at Red River Gorge (can't spell) in Kentucky with my friends Liz and Nick. Its really nice of them to let me go, considering everyone going has someone with them...but oh well I'll have more fun this way. Its a way for me to get away from everything that is going on here, to relax, enjoy my self, and hopefully forget about not having Isabel all weekend. Hopefully all of that is possible. Keith is picking Isabel up today while I am at work, probably because he still doesnt want to see/talk to me. His choice, all of it...his choice.
On a happier note I am doing something fun, new and exciting I can't wait to go to the 'End of the World' it sounds cool and liz and nick are talking about doing repelling, on a nother trip...that will be lots of fun.
Isabel is going to the Zoo this weekend with Keith, that was a nice idea for him to think of, hopefully they will be able to spend a lot of alone time with eachother...he hasn't seen her much. But her nightmares and shaking has stopped since we moved back to the condo. I think she was just confused and all of the changes and tension was getting to her. I am trying hard not to let her see my emotions, just happiness so she is not affect her as much. Hopefully....anyways at work and need to get something done today...will write soon...

Excited!!!

Okay so Isabel and I had a very uneventful weekend. We slept in late on Saturday and moved our stuff back to the condo...it is starting to not look sooo bare anymore...the walls are blank though...Keith took all of his pictures.
On a happier note...I'm going camping this weekend!!! It will hopefully be lots of fun.
Sorry so short...at work...

New!!!

Okay so this is our new blog...hopefully I will be better at writting in this one...
A lot is going on these days and hopefully for the better. Isabel and I are doing great we are back at home in the condo, its good to be hom with all of our stuff and her toys and her own bed. We are adjusting like anyone would need to, but Isabel doesn't seem to be bothered by the change.
Well...a new beginning, a new life...a new blog...lol

Will try to write later.
