April has been a blur:
1. I finally see the light at the end of my work tunnel. It has been dark for months, but next week couldn't be here soon enough. 5500 people will be in Orlando for the convention unlike any other. I'm pretty happy and excited, yet exhausted getting to this point . I wondered how i would survive in the wake of having M, but luckily big M (matt) is a real super star when wife is up to her butt in alligators (that's his expression:)
2. I completed the SLC half marathon- it was no personal best, but a good accomplishment none the less, if bathroom breaks at the Tesoro didn't count against you, my time would have been even better.
3. Matt was the number one manager in his group for the 3rd time in 4 months- whoot whoo!
4. Murphy can say dada and scream other words with no meaning. He still has NO teeth, it has to be soon as the drooling is off the charts
5. Happy 61st Birthday mom!
6. M is the happiest kid- every pic he's just grinning ear to ear
7. Last but not least...I showed Matt a new pair of jeans i bought the other night and he asked "if i needed a shoe horn" to get into them? Excuse me? The words obviously didn't come out right, i was laughing hysterically but he said they were a little tighter than the ones i usually wear, that's all, they look nice though, ah huh. They are still in the bag...i don't wear tight pants, i think it was the pocket flare that threw him off (and then the price tag).

8. Matt broke out the clubs this past week- his back hurts, hands are blistered, yet he can't wait to get out there again. I will never understand the game of golf.
9. If you need a real belly laugh, and I mean belly laugh, you have to check out Nancy's latest post on her blog- maybe an alltime favorite due to the photo gallery. http://texasnancy.blogspot.com/
9. This post will probably be the last until mid May.

1. I head to Orlando this week:)
2. Matt and Nancy will fly out with M next week, my parents, matt's parents and Emily will all meet up in Orlando for what has the potential to be an excellent mixed family vacation.
3. M will see Mickey and Minnie at DisneyWorld and Shamu- hope all goes well.
4. M will be 9 months old and is doing great. It's possible he may walk before crawling. He likes to stand at the ottoman more than scooting on his knees.
5. I'll have my first mother's day in Orlando with all the people i love!

who wouldn't be excited about eating and wearing their personalized M bib, hand knitted by aunt Gretchen
i let him finish "eating" with his hands- not much made it to his mouth.
Honorary team member of the Grangeville Smokejumpers, what? what? (mike- an honorary member is the extent of his GS crew work:))
he is starting to bug harris- he especially likes his paws. M does move around quite a bit on his own as you can see where he started on the blanket.
