walking!

Well, i had Brooklyn this weekend. it was pretty fun.. it was pretty crazy. about like an hour after getting back to my place, i was playing with her and trying to help her stand up. I let go of her and she just stood there.. she had never stood that long before. i was really surprised. well, i thought "lets take it one more step" and i stepped back and reacher for her. she walked towards me! I couldnt believe it! she only took about 2 steps before falling but i was so excited. i wasnt really expecting anything but she did it. i was so proud. Her legs are still pretty weak but she'll build up her confidence soon enough. I texted Leah and asked if she had walked for her and she called me right back and was like "WHAT!?". leah hasnt even seen Brooklyn walk yet. so... I was the one to see brooklyns first steps! it was awesome. i'm so glad that i got to be the one to see it too. I missed her crawl for the first time and i felt aweful.. I have missed so much.. but I didnt miss this! YEAH!! that really made my week! and its been a tough one.. i have been having a really hard time with whats going on in life.. its been really hard to handle and depressing.. I want my old life back.. anyway.. i just thought i would write that brooklyn took her first steps.. :)



I got brookie a kids meal for dinner. she loves fries!

She loves to watch the fishies!

almost bed time.

almost summer time..

wow.. its almost summer. i cant believe it. may is like half way over! geez.. Summer hockey is starting up soon. i'm glad that i'll have that to do again.. i havent really had a lot to do lately. i am always really tired so i generally relax most of the day after i get off work.. blah i'm so lazy. i have tried going out and doing stuff but people always flake on me or... well drama happens and i just end up staying at home. its easier that way.. :) it'll be nice to get back on the ice after having a few weeks with out it.. i hope i end up on a decent team this time.. :) my last team was still a lot of fun though. work has been interesting. there are several events coming up so i have been working with my distributors on getting them all signed up and qualifying and all that jazz.. monday was a hectic day.. Registration opened up for an event that is going to be in Switzerland. a lot of people are excited to go but there are a lot too that are thinking about not going because the airfare is SOOOOO high right now. i guess cheaper tickets are like 1400 a person. plus if they want to stay an extra day or so in the hotel, it costs an extra 550 per night. wow the dollar SUCKS right now. I mean.. i had a millionaire tell me that he was thinking about not going cuz it was so expensive. crazy stuff. I'm sure its going to be a super cool event though. well, i get Brookie for the weekend this week. I'm excited... i miss her like crazy lately. its tough going from having your child around constantly and then not. Well, i got a calling in church.. I'm part of the activities committee. blah.. i have never planned an activity in my life and i generally dont go to church activities either.. now i kinda have to. i have to plan a ward game night for september. that wil be interesting. i had a choice. i could either plan that or the ward christmas. party. yeah... i'm not gonna have my first activity ever planned be as big as a christmas party. NO WAY! ha ha ha.. well.. i am about out of stuff to say..
