My life...

I realized that I haven't really posted about what is going on lately.  I make posts about a show that I am totally addicted to (SYTYCD) and how I am exercising.  I know you check my blog and jump out of your seats when I post that crap.  So here is what is really going on...

*Please excuse the crammed sentences and how they don't even flow.  I didn't feel like making separate paragraphs and I just wanted to write*

My father left on Thursday morning to go back to Qatar.  I was devastated and cried.  My mother is still here visiting and is about to go to the Stampin' Up Convention which I totally wish I was going to.  However, I hate trying to sell things so I don't ever want to be a demonstrator.  A few weeks ago Brian and I spent part of our stimulus check to buy a Cannon Rebel XTI camera.  Did we pay a lot for a nice camera?  I like to think we got a great deal.  Do I love the camera? ABSOLUTELY!  I haven't posted any pictures from it yet though.  I suppose I am still not that great and right now I am just playing around with it.  I don't want every one to think how bad I am.  We got the camera b/c I love pictures and love to scrapbook.  I've always wanted to be a photographer (along with a dental hygienist, hair stylist, orthodontist, and wedding planner).  Who knows but maybe with time that might become a reality but I sure better practice some more : )  I am very excited b/c some of my best friends are having babies.  There are quite a few movies out that I really want to see.  I think next Friday my brother and sister in law will watch our baby so we can go.  I haven't felt like asking anyone to watch Tyson yet b/c I haven't let him cry himself to sleep yet.  Sometimes I feel that I am not very good for doing that but the doctor said it was okay.  However, I am getting ready for him to be able to do that.  I just don't feel like we can ask people to watch him and then have to go step by step with them on how we get him to sleep.  Tyson hasn't been sleeping that well with naps again lately.  I think it is time to get him to nap only 3 times during the day instead of 4 or 5.  He still sleeps great through the night which we are so grateful for.  On the 24th of July (a state holiday here in Utah) we went to Payson to see some of Brian's friends that he grew up with.  It was lots of fun.  Tyson loved the flashes of the fireworks.  I can't believe our little boy will be 4 months old so soon!  Brian's little brother, John, is getting married on 8/8/08!  I think that is so cool!  I am also really excited about the Olympics.  I just love watching the gymnastics.  Which reminds me, another thing I always wanted to be was a gymnast. Brian is going to start studying for the GMAT.  It is going to be a rough few years while he is in school but I know it will all be worth it.  Anyway, I suppose I am done with my rant.  I will post pictures next time I promise.  I just realized that this post isn't really about my life.  It is simply the type of thoughts that flow through my head on a day to day basis.
