Twilight

i haven't written in quite a while solely because i have become addicted to the Twilight Series. Have you read these books? They are written for high schoolers so it make them such an easy read that you can't put them down. Plus it's a very entertaining story. There are 4 books total that the storyline follows from page one of the first book straight thru the last page of the 4th book. So it is so hard to stop reading!! You just have to find out what happens next. Also some of my coworkers are reading the books as well so now we get together and talk about it. So addictive. :) I finished the last book last night so I thought i better up date the blog.

All is well and busy to start the year. Nina got all A's and B's on her 2nd quarter report card. yeah. She is doing very well in school. She also scored 97% on her MAPS test for math (that would be the basic skills test we all took many moons ago). So i couldn't be more prouder of that. I'm guessing she'll be in pre-algebra next year. Basketball season is in full swing now too. Her team is still learning and growing. They have won 1 out of 4 games this year so far. And that is already better than last season. Nina also went to vball camp over Christmas break and she is serving over hand already. Wow, I couldn't do that 'til about 8th grade.

Julia is just perfect. We're waiting for those two top teeth to break thru any day now. She sure is chewing on everything right now too. She is still stationary, content to sit and watch everyone and the pups. No signs of crawling or moving around but I'm sure our days are numbered. She does love to stand and hold our fingers. Just this week she has been holding on to us and taking steps. No balance yet but again, our days are numbered.....

Mark and I went to his holiday party last weekend. I like that they do this in Jan. Gives us something to look forward to. Plus his party is still small enough for an open bar. :) haha

That's about all for now. I'm crazy busy at work waiting on the economic stimulus plan to get passed. Our DOT clients all have big aspirations if this goes and of course it gives us quite a bit of work too.
