Weekly Update

Turns out I was way off on my Olympic Hockey Bracket. But....like I said all I really cared about was that we, as in the USA, would go to the final game.

It was such and intense game. I loved it.

It was funny to see all the comments made on Facebook about it. I bet 80% of those who commented about the game don't watch Hockey on a regular basis and don't even have a team to route for.

My favorite was from a friend of mine and I quote "BOO team USA!!! they played like idiots!!! Practically gave the gold away...."

What I love about this comment is that she took some very basic viewer comments, that everyone says for any sport and applied them to the game. I bet she never watches Hockey. I would bet $100 on that fact.

I totally disagree. Without getting into detail about it....because what she said pissed me off to no end. I don't think they played very well at first....note Canada was up 2-0 at one point. But the fact that the US ended up tying the game at 24 seconds left is pretty amazing. The odds were against us going into overtime. I'm making this too long....I just think it was funny that I ended up calling her out on it. I love calling people out on things. Don't you?

P.S. I love Hockey....Go RED WINGS....Colorado Avalanche SUCK!!! that was for Amy and Matt. :) I'm just kidding. Love you.

I figure since life is getting just too hecktic. I would give you weekly updates for now on.

Last night we went up to Salt Lake to visit Betsy, who we have not seen in over 2 years. Audrey loved playing with Cozy. I hope we are able to visit more often so Audrey gets to have another playmate.

Audrey loves to sing. Right now her favorite songs are...and I believe they are in order.
  • twinkle twinkle little star
  • the wheels on the bus
  • the Eensy Weensy spider (seriously how is that spelt? I found like 4 variation trying to make sure I was spelling it correct.)
  • Baby Bumble Bee
  • Teasing Mr. Crocodile
  • Speckled frogs
I can't think of any others. She learns them all from Daycare. Yeah, we had to enroll Audrey in Daycare full time.

She was at Colleens for the fall for about 6-7 hours a week and then figured for the spring semester I could take time off work and work late so that Patrick could go to class and I would be home with her, but after trying that for like a week, we figured we needed to enroll her in daycare full time. So she's been there for a while now and loves it. She is a Panda. Sorry Colleen.

They potty training is becoming a disaster. She sort of refuses to learn. We had ended up having her be undieless for most of Sunday. Just so she would be forced to learn. It worked for a little while. We did have one accident.

I'm going to do it every evening from now on. Hopefully she learns. I really want to be done with changing a baby and have a BIG GIRL!

She has learned how to turn on and watch a DVD. We moved our old, old, old giant tv into her room and bought a $20 DVD player. She will put a movie in and turn the volume down really low so that I can't hear it during her nap times. It's pretty funny. I just laugh, go in and turn it off. She's not cried that I've turned it off yet...she just giggles about being caught. She can be so cute sometimes.

What are some other things that happened this week?

We finally booked tickets for our summer plans. We are going to Washington D.C. from May 26th-June 3rd. Then from there we fly to Texas for Matts graduation. I then come home on June 9th and Audrey will stay for another week or so. Poor Patrick he won't see me for 2 weeks and won't see Audrey for at least 3....or never....I'm sure Dad and Veniece would be content to have her for the rest of her life.

I'm really excited about the trip.

Next week is Grandpa's 80th Birthday party. Katherine is not going, and Patrick can't because of his classes. I'm really not interested in driving 10 hours by myself. Is there anyone from the Utah area that wouldn't mind giving me and Audrey a ride? Otherwise I think we are going to miss it. I am so sad about that. I hope everyone has a grand time.

Wow, my weekly update was pretty long. Sorry I don't think they will be as long next time.

and by the way I turn 26 in a month....not excited about that. I'll officially be closer to 30 than 20. Sad day!

Google the potty trainer. Shelby was potty trained in one day! I hope to see you at the party. We're going! I've never watched hockey myself. I think I should start:)

if you still had wanted me to watch her you could have called me i would have done it. I can't now, i had to go back to work full time because neither of us were working.
