Milestones and Twilight Book

Milestones probably only interest the parents, but Brody has started to crawl. He gets his knees under him and scoots or face plants forward. He is fun to watch play on the floor; with rolling, rotating, and face planting he can get to pretty much anything he wants. With is harder for me because I have to pick up the floor of Gavin’s small toys, marbles, rocks and money every time I put him on the floor.

I finished reading Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. It only took me two days, which is amazing because I usually never finish reading books. However, I was mad that it didn’t end the way I wanted, I guess that is how they get you to read the next book. It had better not take until book 4 to end the way I want. Don’t want to give anything away for those have not read yet and I don’t want anyone to tell me that it takes until book 4 either. I will eventually get finished with all of them. My next school break is not until November so it could be awhile. I have started the next book, New Moon. It has been nice having the week off school. I have to start back up on Tuesday with my English Research class.

P.S. The cake is super easy if anyone ever wants to make it I can tell you how.

Oh forgot to say we are playing the biggest loser with the Parker side of the family and last week the first week I was the biggest loser. Can you believe it I didn’t think I would win with Mike playing, he was only 0.1% behind me so I will have to work extra hard next week. Others were close also. We are playing for 6 months that is a long time with cash prize at the end.

I'm almost done reading the 4th book and I think they're so dumb!! But for some reason I can't put it down so I guess they're not that bad. You'll have to watch the movie when it comes out. Have you seen the trailers? Not how I pictured them, especially Edward, but all well. I shouldn't have looked until I totally finished all the books. What is biggest looser? Is it a weight loss thing? That would be fun to play (maybe). I would probably do bad. Well that's fun Brody is crawling. You need to do a video so I believe you :)

sounds like you have been really busy! it is so fun when they get to the age of moving around and crawling!!! I agree we need a video of this crazy boy!!! I dont know how you guys find time to read books!!! I atempted to read a book a while ago but I never get past the third chapter!!! That sounds like a lot of fun to play biggest looser with people you know what are at stakes??? I am in a competition at my gym and every three months they are giving away prizes and at the end who ever wins gets a free cruse for two!!! I am in the lead so far! it is depending on your percentage of body fat.

Your blog is so fun. I look forward to reading it a couple times a week to find out what's going on in your life and the most exciting part is that your kids are about the same ages as ours, so it makes it even more interesting. We feel like we know your family better now than we did when we were in Logan together. The biggest loser game sounds like a lot of fun. That would be a great way and motivation to loose weight as a family.

Genetics are kind of funny sometimes! I don't know how chase got those bright blue eyes, I thought for sure he would have dark brown like me. He was a pretty laid back baby, and now that he's getting older he reminds me a lot of my little brother. He loves to organize small toys like cars, and he will do that for ever! but he does have a wild side too, haha.
