My love/hate for football started when I meet Rob and coincidentally that's about the time UK Football was getting better. We had the Broncos and UK "games", it was great. We've been together for 9 years and every year I discovered more football comes.
It Started with the draft and don't forget this is all day all weekend. Then came pre-season, we must watch pre-season! Next year it was the Pro-bowl which came with the beginning of Fantasy Sports. Then we had to watch more games than just our 2 teams. In between all these we had UK basketball, Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche. Monday night football used to be a "no" unless the Broncos were in, now it's a must. Sunday night football later came as a must watch as well. Oh, I can't believe I forgot SportsCenter! We also Tivo NFL Live to watch everyday. Our Tivo is backed up with John Elway's greatest games/moments in anchient history. 4 fantasy teams this year and I thought I already knew when and what to expect with the season. To my surprise I didn't! The "free agency" (started at midnight yesterday) if you haven't heard). We've been tracking every minute of it and frequently refresh the screen to see updates.
All that said, I really love my husband :)

I just don't like junk food...
This is probably more of a diary entry than blog but here goes...Last weekend my kids were playing in the den and I was standing at the sink in the kitchen eating a oatmeal cream pie while hiding it from them. If you know me then you know I don't share my food :) I was really disgusted with myself and as I was eating I realized that I just don't like junk food, there is more to my pigging out. For years, I've been saying that my problem was that I just love junk food but really I love all food and eat it all for various reasons. So, today I am going to really start trying to enjoy my food, eat it slow, don't eat out of boredom, and don't eat because I am unhappy with my physical self that day. I even know that when I eat healthy food: I workout harder at Jazzercise, don't get tired after lunch and have a better attitude.
I needed to write this down so that it can be documented!

First Blog of '09
So I haven't been updating my blog and since I started a life changing diet (well sort of) I thought I could try to work on posting more.
My Baby boy is 3 years old now he's over half the height of his daddy who is 6'3". It's so much fun to listen and talk to him. He's got so much to say and is truly a little person. He got a John Deer Gator for his birthday or "green jeep" as he calls it. He has decided that mommy can park her jeep on the street because he needs to park in the garage in case it rains! He is still my baby and secretly I want him to be a momma's boy.
Jenna is such a girl, at granny's house the other day she got the toy bin out and threw everything on the floor except the dolls and teddy bears. She's 10 months old now. Her and Owen had a blast at Jr. Jazzercise last weekend and we will be going back every time they have it. Teaching kids to be active and play with others; with great instructors at the price I pay a sitter, can't pass it up! They both fell asleep on the way home.
Rob and I went to Gatti Town for Valentines day although I felt bad at the end I was so excited to get all the tokens, play every game without keeping an eye on kids or having one on my hip. We acted like kids all night and it was so nice to act younger with each other again. I cherish every minute alone I get with him these days.
We have no big plans this weekend and I'm bummed it's going to be so cold. I'm really excited to go to Kerie's house friday for a play date with some girlfriends!!

Excited for the week
Jenna slept in this morning and it was nice to not open my eyes till after 7 am. She can move her knees forwards and hands but hasn't gotten them all to work together for the final crawl yet.
I'm very excited for the holidays and I'm done with politics and have moved on to listening to christmas music on the radio. Although Rob has told me many times that the tree doesn't go up till after Thanksgiving I still ask him if we can put it up everyday :) Owen is very excited about his presents, we talked last night about what he wanted and he couldn't wipe the smile off his face, I named a couple of the toys we already bought and he screamed "Yeah!" everytime.
I had turkey at KK's school yesterday, we are having Thanksgiving dinner today after church and I have 2 dinners to go to this Thursday! Total of 4 turkey meals! I feel blessed.
Notes about Owen: I realized just how "boys will ALWAYS be boys" last night. I told Owen to go downstairs and get his tub of blocks and bring them so we could play during the UK game. He went down several times but just couldn't find them. I walked downstairs and in FRONT of all his toys were the tub o' blocks! I just shook my head.
Owen is at Starbucks right now with my mom and she said he thinks he is so tough with his hot chocolate cup, I'm sure he's telling everyone that it's Owen's coffee. Rob and I finally sat down together last week and came up with a punishment plan for Owen. There is now a naughty seat in our living room and he has used it 6 times since Saturday morning. He just started pushing our boundries lately and we are trying to draw the line. There have also been a few spankings too.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Today is a good day to start a blog
It started with a fight on who would carry the oatmeal from the counter to the table and ended with a "I'm scared" excuse to get out of bed and watch tv. Everything in between went pretty smooth I'd have to say expect for the volume of noise at our house. The best part of the day: When Owen gets Jenna to laugh out loud forever. It amazes me how funny she thinks he is...I used to be the funny one!
Uncle "E" came into town tonight and when he got here Owen got his gun and ran around the corner to shoot him. He thinks Eric is so cool. Jenna gave him a smile and quickly went back to bed.
This is my first blog...My goals on this momentous occasion: I'm not good at keeping, organizing memories and this might help, let our Colorado family that we miss so much feel like the are a part of our everyday life, and the other is to think about my life in words and hopefully it will open the door to better communication with others and personal growth.
