My first blog ever... I feel so outdated! I love reading other people's blogs, so I thought I should join in. Erin and Kelly both inspired me to do so, and Lindi has been a long time blogger and I really enjoy reading their blogs whenever I can. It brings a little laughter to my day, and I feel like I know what's going on in their lives. Like them, I'm sure I'll be talking a lot about family life.
In a nutshell...I've been married now for 4 years to my DH (Dear Husband), Aaron. He definitely puts up with me and I love him so much! We have a huge Labrador, Stoli, whom Aaron had given me for my b-day one year before we were married because Aaron was too scared to propose to me that year. LOL! We have an 18 month old little boy, Elijah. Eli is the center of our universe right now, he makes us see things from a different perspective and encourages us to do the things we remember doing when we were kids. He's running around, literally. Learning new words and sounds. His personality is really starting to shine. Our family is growing, we're expecting out second baby in March, we're not finding out the sex of the baby because there are very few surprises in life and finding out the sex of the baby when they are born is one of the best surprises. At this time we're calling Baby #2 Ziggy, it's a a fun, androgynous name.
This weekend we're visiting family, it's my MIL's b-day. I was able to go to breakfast with my friend Molly, it was great seeing her. She is due with her first baby, and we're only 2 days apart, amazing! After having breakfast with Molly, I was able to do my last bit of "Thanks-mas". My family is coming in town to celebrate Thanksgiving next week and we also celebrate Christmas that weekend. It's been an ongoing tradition we started when my sister got married.
Right now we're watching the KU vs. Iowa State football game. We're kicking their butts right now, making us 11-0, what a feat! Well, that's about all for now. We're waiting on my FIL to start dinner, I'm STARVING! Need to find a snack!

Yes! I am the FIRST to leave a comment on your blog. I've made history. LOL :-)
Before I forget, Cherie, what the hell does "MIL's" and "FIL" stand for or mean??? Anyhoo...
I can not wait for baby #2 to arrive. I think you have a girl and a good name for her is Sabrina Christina. Don't you agree?
TTFN (TaTa for now) ;-)
Hey Cherie,
Long time that we haven't talked.... My fault. You emailed me and I have been too busy. I was actually thinking about you this weekend. I have been out of town for a conference - presented a poster at the ANAC conference on spirituality and HIV+ women with histories of abuse. So between school, work and travelling, oh and that guy I have been seeing... time has slipped away. Anyway, I am done with classes soon. Let's get dumplings at BK soon.
YES! I was hoping you'd start a blog like this. Now I can read up on friends' sites and feel like I've been talking to them since I know what's going on . Now we have to get Molly to create one.
I'm glad you started one. Now I won't feel like I hve no idea what's going on w/ you.
Love the blog, Cherie. I was thinking about starting one for Bob and I, we'll see...
XO,
B
Thanks for the blog invite! Now that we aren't able do our morning runs/walks as often, it is great to see what's new with you! Looking forward to baby #2 to come!! I am sooo excited for you and Aaron, and Eli!
