End of Summer 2010

Okay, I apologize. I am officially the worse blogger out there. Its been almost 3 months since I last posted. Lets just say, I have been busy. Its hard to get me to sit still long enough to update my blog. Its even harder to get me to sit long enough to watch a movie from beginning to end. Just ask Doug. I dont care to go to the movie theater so much that he has a movie dates with my friend Kari. Darn Adult ADHD (I diagnosed myself after watching commercials about it).

Our summer has been filled with swimming at the pool, hanging with our bestest friends Rick, Kari and Lance, yard work, home improvements, trip to IL, Alex started gymnastics again, my first Colts game and first time visiting the Lucas Oil Stadium, MotoGP race weekend and much more. Maverick and Riggs turned 1 on July 4th. Lucifer just turned 7 on Sept 9th. We had our first trip to the vet for something other than vaccinations. Maverick was down over the Labor Day weekend, sleeping all day, barely eating and drinking, hiding and walking funny. This really got me worried and a few times cried my eyes out because it brought back sad memories of Yasmine, just before she passed away. I took him to the dr to determine he had an infection, possibly respiratory infection. He has almost completely healed with the help of prescriptions. Big sigh of relief for us.

After 7 years Doug and I finally agreed on a decor for our bedroom and did a total makeover to it. All new bedding, pillows, sheets and painted walls finally. Its very bright and bold. We love it.
Alexandra is doing great in preschool. She can color so well for a 3 year old. She has learned her shapes and counts to 20. She knows her colors. Her vocabulary and use of words is extending everyday. She is always asking questions. She is curious and wants to learn. Many people compliment how she talks and acts older than 3. We are very proud parents.

So now comes the end of another summer. Fall is very busy for us. Many birthdays in November, including the princess and my 30th birthday.
Speaking of my birthday. Im thinking of making a huge change. Chopping my hair off. Yes, all gone, chopped, up to my shoulders. I want to donate to "Wigs for Kids", a charity similar to "Locks of Loves" but is 100% free to the families in need of a wig. Im super nervous and still debating what kind of hair style I want. I have never ever had short hair, only trim my hair a few inches at the most. The shortest its ever been is just above my bra. That was short for me.

Well its late and Alex has fallen asleep before we were able to start our movie. I will do my best and get back in gear, keeping this up to date. :)
