Will this really be a 'Go'

Ok, I am going to try this again. I tried having a blog on xanga, but it was way too confusing how to use the site. I never could get my pictures/writings to look normal so I quit. I really like how Jennifer's blog site has turned out, and if she can do it, I should be able to do it :) Hee Hee!!! Anyways, I know this is a really old picture of Ben & I, but that is another thing I need to figure out. Last time I tried to download pictures from the camera onto the computer, it didn't work??? I have no idea why. I did it exactly as the directions said! I am going to try again though, sometime soon!!!

Andrew is doing good. He got his first haircut last Thursday. He looks like a little man, he is so adorable. I can't believe that he is really going to by 1 in less than 3 weeks. I don't know where the last year went too? He is crawling and cruising the furniture, so I know it won't be long till he is walking. Should I be excited or not??? Monday he decided he was going to try some cat food. He had just eaten and was playing on the kitchen floor while I was washing bottles - man I am so ready to be done with that! - and I turned around and he had cat food in his hand and was smacking his lips so I knew he had it in his mouth. The first thing I thought, was he doesn't have any teeth, the cat food is not going to disolve in his mouth, he is going to gag & throw up. Well, I was right. He lost his entire dinner right there on the kitchen floor. What a mess. Then, I had to feed him again, and yes, another bottle/bowl to clean :( UGGGGG. Yesterday I watched him like a hawk all day long. I had to get after him 3 or 4 times for going to the cat food bowl. What a little stinker, you would think he learned his lesson the first time!!!

Well, this past Sunday was my first Mother's Day. It was pretty good. I guess I had these imaginery thoughts about how it would be, but then reality set in, Andrew is only 1 years old!!! He was still getting over a bad cough/congestion so he wasn't fealing the best. We went to church with my parents and then to Outback for lunch. What were we thinking!!!! It was packed in there. Fortunatley, we got our table quickly, but the service was slow, Andrew was cranky - Oh ya, his first tooth broke through yesterday - and it was so hot in there. I say this, but next year I would rather go out the day before Mother's Day to eat! Then to top the day off, Ben & I had 1 year old nursery at church that evening and the service lasted 1 1/2 hours long. Seem like it is always extra long when we are working in the nursery!

Well, I really want to keep this up. I love yours Jennifer and enjoy reading when you write something. Maybe you can give me some tips on how you made your layout look so nice!!!
