Kandy's blog

So I needed to up date my blog. These are some new pix of Connelly. He loves walking everywhere and he also LOVES balls. He has his favorites, but any ball will do. He carries them everywhere. He has a really good arm. He also loves to kick them also, so we will have to try him on the baseball, football, and soccor teams!!! He also loves to watch balls on the TV. Basketball and volleyball so far are the ones he seems to like. Last night he watched the Jazz game with Nate and just layed him head in Nates lap. I didn't see it but Nate said he did. I don't know how Nate can get him to lay down but he does!! Also an update, My sister, Holly is pregnant with TWIN GIRLS!!! \        

Right now, my class at SLCC is Human Anatomy 2320. I am hoping I pass this class. I thought my last class Biology 1610 was hard...Well, I didn't know what hard was. My lab instructor basically doesn't teach at all and he said that is what he is suppose to do. I say, "What?" Why am I paying tuition for you to NOT Teach? That is ridiculous. But I checked with my Anatomy teacher and he said the same thing, that my lab teacher isn't suppose to teach. Now I think this is ludicrous. Oh well, what can I do other than teach myself and ask for help, Right? I am sure if I really need a tutor, my doctors at work can help me. Dr. Ahmed is always very helpful. I almost think that the lab will be harder than the class. I am having a lot of anxiety over the class. My first test in the class is the day after I get back from Rhode Island. Therefore I will be gone the two class periods prior to the first test. I am having so much anxiety over this, I hope that I even enjoy my trip.

Noxzema and I have never seen eye to eye. This is something I forgot about until my cousin Deidra recently brought the curse back with full vengeance. It all started many many years ago at girls camp. Deidra reminded me of it and said the evil word and now it is back 15 or so years later....... Years ago, I think I must have been 15 or so, Deidra, Adri (my best friend), and I were at girls camp. It was night time, and I was about to wash my face. Adri asked me why I brought Noxzema to wash my face. She said, "you know what happens to you when you wash your face with Noxzema.!" Deidra asked, "What happens to you when you use Noxzema?" I began to explain that every time that I used Noxzema to wash my face I would start my period. So of course Deidra didn't believe me and she grabbed the Noxzema out of my hand and put some on her fingers and smeared my face with the evil Noxzema. Sure enough 3 hours later that evening I started my period. Needless to say, I don'

So I was going through my pictures and I found this one. It is of my cousin Monica and me in my parents bathroom. I am the one on the right and she is on the left. She must have been baby sitting us or something. We obviously were doing facials. I at first thought we were at her house but I noticed the bathroom as mom's after I looked closer. I remember IDOLIZING Monica when I was younger. She is so gorgous and I wanted to be older and beautiful. I remember asking her when we was engaged, "How do you know your in love?" She said, "you just know...." In the love tone that lovers are in when they are engaged. Oh, to be engaged and have goggles over your eyes!!! Right, Monica? We were two sexy ladies that day.

So I finally got it. Watch really close and at the end of the video, if you listen he says, "hi" and waves his hand. He is looking away but he does wave to people now.

  I haven't put pictures up for a while. Here is connelly eating and making a mess.     I will try to get video up of Connelly walking, but he is all over the place and into everything. He loves making me say, "Connelly....what are you doing?!!!" He just laughs every time I say that.  

I can't believe it. Connelly is 9 months and is walking. He was just taking a few steps earlier this week and now he will walk everywhere. He has taken 12 steps in a row. I don't know how to put a video of it on my blog. I've done it before but now I'm suddenly computer challenged and so I'll see if I can later. I hadn't blogged for a while and this is big news so I wanted to hurry up and do a post.

Today was our first day of the year 2009. Nate and I stayed home with the baby all day. We cleaned up the extra room upstairs that had some how turned into the junk room. It is weird how that happens. We set up the Wii and played a game of bowling. Of course, Nate won. I don't bowl good for real or on the Wii but it was fun. We will have to practice some more. Nate has an opportunity to play the Wii at his work during his lunch breaks, so he is pretty good at the games on the Wii. Connelly was really tired today. He took three naps. It is probably from all that partying that he did for New Year's Eve. LOL. He did stay up until 10:00 pm. That is pretty much midnight to a 9 month old. Yes, I said 9 months. Connelly is 9 months old. I can't believe it. He is so big. He is a blast to play with. He is the best fetching child alive. He will fetch the ball all day long. I tired for years to get Bell, my dog to do what he has learned in just 9 months. I'm g
