Sittin' in class
I am sitting in Intel class learning about Word Art. Ok, I am really updating my blog, editing my master's thesis, playing solitaire....
We have decided to have Lindsey's first birthday party at our house. We will have it in our backyard, but have the Parish Center rented just in case the weather gets cold. We decided the theme would be "A Ho Down."
OK, that's not the theme.
TJ is looking forward to dressing up as a clown and making balloon art.

New Product Junkie
I am a new product junkie. I will try beauty products, cleaning products, crazy foods, etc... So when Edy's came out with Dibs I was pretty excited. When I found a coupon for a dollar off I was really stoked! I ran to the store and bought the ones covered in Crunch Bar; barely got them home before I tore the box open and dug in. WOW! I was in heaven! I tried to limit myself to five at a time (practicing self control) but according to Edy's a serving iss 26 pieces! Yippee!!! They are actually filling... ten usually does the job. If you like ice cream and chocolate (who doesn't?) you must buy this new product! Love at first bite.

You would think
You would think that since I don't have a job I would have plenty of time to update my blog. Well, welcome to Lindsey's world! She has been going to bed later, waking up earlier and skipping her second nap. The only thing I can count on is her 10-12 nap. Then, instead of working, I sit on the couch and zone out. When she is awake, she is on the move- crawling from one thing to another. She is fun; she has such a personality! She sings and talks a lot. I don't know how single mothers do this! Since she pulls up on everything I am afraid to leave her by herself so I take her everywhere: garage, feed the dog, bathroom!! We are both looking forward to TJ returning from Parsons.
We have also been traveling a lot. We visited Kansas City for the Fourth of July. We went to a party at Aunt Sue's house. Lindsey was an angel. She was held by many strangers, but she just smiled. Lindsey didn't get any margaritas, but they sure were great! We went to lunch with Aunt Andrea, Gracey, and Great Aunt Linda. We had a lovely dinner at Red Snapper with Kyra and Jerry while Ky, Kellyn, and Caroline babysat Lindsey. That restaurant is awesome! If you like Asian food, you must go. It was so nice to go out with Kyra and Jerry and talk about grown up things (not toys or milestones). Next time we go to KC we will take pics. of their new house. It is coming along so nicely! TJ made a great pork tenderloin with orzo. WOW! No wonder I can't lose weight.
We are on our way to Coffeyville for Kim's shower this weekend. Back to KC next weekend. Intel Class that week. School starts Aug. 11 for teachers. Where does summer go?
My best friend from high school, Mandi Waller, just had her first baby! She had a healthy baby boy: Riley Thomas Waller. We visited them today and took pics. I will put them on the blog later. He has nice black hair and adorable hands. I wondered how I would feel holding a baby. Would I want another one? Is it too soon? How would Lindsey react? I felt fine, not ready for another one, it's way too soon. Lindsey was very interested in him, and mildly jealous. She told Mandi all sorts of stories while I held Riley.
Well, we are off again! Time for piano lessons.
I need ideas for book club!! Read any good books lately?

Indiana/Kentucky
This past weekend we drove to Indiana to see Aaron and Chika. We walked by a beautiful river. The city has done a very nice job of making it a cool place to go. On the way back they were setting off fireworks for a baseball game so we got to watch those. We went to an awesome architecheral salvage place and nearly got lost in all of the stuff we wanted. It was muggy and hot, but we walked through two warehouses and three yards looking at beautiful junk! We went to a Louiville Bats baseball game and Lindsey slept, but that's ok, the Bats were losing. The characters that came out between innings though were well worth the time...cute! That pitcher sure was good at hitting the bat!!hahahaha!
We went to the Panosonic Extreme skateboarding event. It was live on ABC or NBC. That was neat. The music was loud! The skaters were awesome. I tried to take some pics, but they did not turn out very well. Lindsey slept through the whole thing!
We went to a resteraunt called Charlie's. They serve hot buttery honey rolls while you wait. Lindsey had an explosion so I spent 15 minutes in the restroom trying to clean us up. Chika and Aaron babysat while TJ and I went to Maker's Mark resteraunt. We had Salmon and Tuna SpringStix. They were sushi, but fried! We loved the place and thought of many other people that would enjoy the food, drinks, and atmosphere. It was so nice of Aaron and Chika to babysit. Lindsey played for a few minutes and then fell asleep. She may have given them a false sense of parenting (This is easy!!). Actually, they played with her the whole time we were there and they did a wonderful job. She never had to be sent to the basement.
Speaking of the basement, Aaron and Chika's house is very nice. They have painted and decorated nicely. I love the kitchen and the deck. I wish we could've grilled, but it rained quite a bit. The basement is going to be sweet! Aaron has already made a very cute laundry room. It was so cute I would even iron down there!
Lindsey is crawling quickly and fearlessly. She is also trying to stand up on everything.
We are home and Rommel is very happy to see us. We thought for sure he floated away in all the rain water.
