Graduation

So Josh and I have FINALLY graduated from Metro each with our associates!!!! The last few weeks were crazy getting in all of our assignments and taking our finals. It has been a long 2 years, but we have gotten through it together!!! The girls have been very good as well, letting Josh and I focus some of our attention away from them. Only 10 more months and Josh will be done with his Bachelors. He has decided to get a Bachelors in Marketing Management. I really think that we will enjoy that degree, and do well in that kind of career.


The girls have been growing up so fast. Natalie is in the "who, what, why, when, where" stage. She loves asking question, and sometimes asks them 5 or 10 times! =) She is potty trained too! She is such a good big sister. Today I was in the kitchen cleaning up before we left, and she asked for some gold fish. So I gave her a handful. Chelsea was crying at the same time, so Natalie walked over to her and gave her one of her own gold fish. The best part was I did not even ask her to share. I am so proud of her!






Chelsea is growing up so fast. We take her in for her 1 year old appointment this week. She is walking along furniture, and loves to walk as long as you hold both of her hands. She loves reading books and playing with toys. This week Natalie and Chelsea played catch with the ball in the dining room while Josh and I were cooking Chicken Cordon Bleu! (Yum!!!) Anywho, Natalie would throw it and Chelsea would crawl to get it, and throw it back to her. They had so much fun. It is wonderful seeing them grow closer together as sisters as they grow older.



So in celebration of graduating Metro we went to the zoo today. Natalie was VERY excited. All morning all she would talk about is seeing the elephants, giraffes, and monkeys at the zoo after her nap. We walked almost 1/2 of the zoo in 45 minutes. That was tiring. The girls enjoyed seeing a lot of animals in a short amount of time. It kept their attention, but they were still able to watch the animals move as we walked by.

Next week is PayPal day at Rosenblatt, so we are probably going to take the girls back to the zoo, and then to the dinner and baseball game. We are excited to have so many fun outings together as a family, now that we are graduated.

Well that is a good amount of catch up for missing these last few weeks. A couple things to remember, I love my family, and no matter what we can get through anything together!

Congratulations to Josh and I. WE DID IT!!!! =)
