1. The weather has been awesome! Summer is right around the corner!
2. The kids had a sock hop at school last Friday night and Jen and I wanted to make poodle skirts for the girls. So we bought the stuff we needed and got to work. It was hard to work with the size of fabric we had but it ended up ok thanks to Barbie who helped a lot with the sewing. Now that I think about it, I should have taken pictures as we progressed. Oh, well.

All ready for the sock hop!
4. I'm now an official member of True North Fitness and Health. It's unlike any other gym I've been to. I'm doing lots of strength training so it's not about weight loss, it's about getting fit. I've never done so many squats in my life! Every time they challenge me beyond what I think I can handle I think of how much jiggle I have on my inner thighs. It really helps me power through.
5. Our vacation rental is booked for Shaver and I've secured a dog/house sitter! I'm so excited to get away, hang at the beach, hike, and just enjoy time with my family. Two more months to go!
This was Shaver 2010. I'm hoping this year will be just as great!

6. This summer is the first where Tyler and I will both be working. I was nervous about what we would do with the kids but it seems to be working out. They'll be spending some time with grandma and some at Y camp just down the street from where I work. Perfecto!
7. I went to the dentist this morning because I had pain in my tooth. I have to see an endodontist because they think I have something wrong with the root of my tooth. I don't get how the root can go bad without a cavity. And it's not like I can keep my root clean. I'll be really annoyed if I have to spend money on this thing.
8. Does anyone watch How I Met Your Mother? I'm watching the old episodes on Netflix and it's super funny.
9. My coworker, Brandy, is a surrogate and is pretty much as big as a house. We like to circle around her and joke that she has her own orbit. It's true. Her belly is giant and she's having the baby next week. I don't know if I'll have the opportunity to hold little Nathaniel (since the French couple is flying in to be there for the birth) but I'm going to be there for some of the labor process. I've never seen a baby emerge, except for my own (yes, my doctor held up a mirror so I could see. Awesome.). Who knows if I'll be there that long but it would be cool if it happened when I was there!
10. Tomorrow begins my four day weekend! Tyler and I are going on a bike ride in the morning. I'm really looking forward to some quality time with him! Happy holiday weekend guys!

You guys did such a great job on the skirts! The kids looked amazing. It is so hard to believe that they are already this big! Craziness. You are all going to have so much fun on your vaca! We have been trying to figure out what we want to do (something inexpensive) with Zach's leave. I can't wait for some family vaca time. MUCH NEEDED. Oh and I hear you about the endodontist. I was NOT happy about having to fork out cash for a tooth with no root! I had to have a re-root canal. It was ridiculous. How I Met Your Mother is one of my favorite shows! I too started rewatching them on Netflix! Love it! Super exciting watching a baby being born!! Most amazing thing in the world.
