So long Spring break!

Spring break is over and Alex goes back to work tomorrow. It's kind of a sad how fast time goes. Now we just have to wait until August to go on a vacation again. Our week and a half off together has been pretty eventful.  We were out and about every day except these past two..mostly because it has been kind of gloomy out.

I went on my first party bus with my sister-in-law for a friend's bachelorette party and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! It's really hard not to have fun when you are surrounded with people who feel like being crazy. The night didn't start off the best because I left my ID in Alex's wallet so I had to drive an hour extra to get it. Once we got to where everyone else was for the party bus it was a lot of fun. I have never gone into so many bars in one night. It's definitely not something I would do every weekend or very often at all. I probably won't do it again for awhile. I had a lot of fun with my sister-in-law.  It's one of the few times that I have actually gone out, and she was great company!

On on completely different note, K-man has officially started crawling. In the past week, he has learned how to go from being on his tummy to sitting and to crawling. It is so exciting to watch. He learned how to be in the crawling position for awhile now, but to actually see him crawl..it was exciting!

I think it will be nice to get back in the swing of things, but it's always sad to have to go back to regular life after having such a good time off. I will just have to deal with it I suppose until we have another vacation together!

Here's to blogging.

I have a blog. I have a blog, yet I find it increasingly more difficult to actually write one. I often find myself thinking about writing a blog and what I plan on writing about when I write one, and I get sidetracked. Shocking right? I'm not really the writing kind, I guess. I don't really think I am that good at it. I have random thoughts and find it hard to keep my writings from being so scattered that people will be able to understand them.

I've thought on many occasions about writing about a book I've read or a movie I've seen recently. For instance, if I were writing about a movie I've seen recently, I would write about how Mark Zuckerberg is an a-hole. (That's, of course, if he is anything at all like the way he was depicted in The Social Network) But that is boring. And it has been done before. And I am not a movie critic. (or a book critic for that matter)

Oftentimes I have all of these ideas for blogs, and I resort to writing about my life and how my little man is doing. I think that is what I will do today.

Not much has changed in the last couple of months, and at the same time a lot of things have changed. K-man is sitting on his own now and starting to crawl. He hasn't fully started crawling yet because he is not sure what to do once he is on all fours. He gets up and rocks back and forth and then he does little baby pushups or he sticks his butt clear up in the air. It is really entertaining to watch him. He scoots around on the floor (which is really easy to do because we have wood floors) and he gets stuck under the couch and entertainment center. That may have sounded a little worse than it really is, he doesn't really get stuck, more like his legs are under the couch and his butt can't fit under it so he kind of just lays there until I scoot him out. He is talking more too. He says mamamamamama (what I consider mama), dadadaddadada (dada) and a lot of other nonsense words that don't mean anything to me other than cute baby talk.

K-man has successfully gotten over his second cold. And has two teeth. Oh, and got baptized since the last time I wrote a blog! I guess a lot has happened after all.  :)
