There's An App For That?!?

So yes, it's been a while since I last blogged. I've been wishing I had more time to do so, but you all know how crazy life can get, right?
For my birthday, my parents and brother so kindly bought me an iPod touch. It's fantastic! I feel like I have a mini computer in the palm of my hand. Not only can I Facebook and Twitter, I have a ton of fun/way cool apps. There is everything from fitness to food, games to weather, lots of crazy sound effects (light sabers!), a piano, a violin tuner....you name it and there's an app for it.
Get this: there's even a BLOGGER app. In fact, that's how I'm writing this post right now!! Cool, huh!

Word

I have been told recently that I haven't posted a word on my blog in about a week.

Well here you go.

WORD.

I Certainly Don't Feel It

Today is the day. I'm officially the big TWO NINE.

I don't feel it, though. I feel more like 35. Why is that? Maybe because I have an 11 year old and have been married for almost 12 years?!? Probably.

As I've gotten older, birthdays have become nothing more than just another day. Hmmm...

I'm gonna enjoy it while I can. What other day allows me to be or do whatever I dang well please and eat a TON of cake without guilt?

Oh. And it's Cinco De Mayo. Woot woot for a holiday for a birthday!

His Name Is Eli

Today was very special! I got my first cousin on my mom's side. YAY!

Yes, tomorrow I will be 29. It's been a long time coming, that's for sure. :)

My aunt and uncle welcomed a beautiful baby boy into the world this afternoon. His name is Eli James. He weighed 5lbs, 6oz and was 17 in long. He's adorable!! I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know my uncle's 2 other children, A and S, whom have become wonderful playmates for my 3 C's. We don't get to see them as often as we'd like, but they have fun when they are all together. Now with Eli in the picture, I'm sure it will be grand! Caroline will have a sweet baby to fuss over, and I can't think of anything else she'd rather have.

See---isn't he a cutey patootey?!? :)
Congrats to my aunt and her fam. I can't wait to get my chance to snuggle him to pieces!
