Finally a blogger

I decided that I would try to set up a blog. I don't think I will be very good at it, but I love to look at others and it looks kind of fun.

Our little family is doing pretty good. Robert is studying hard in school and is trying to just make it through Calculus. For those of you who don't know Rob is studying at Utah State University and is hoping to, in the end, have an MBA. His BS will be in Buisness Marketing. He likes school and he getting better at the whole juggling school work and family.

Mason Robert (almost 3), now he is such a fun, crazy, lovable, and energized boy. He is so smart and surprised me every day with a new word or sentence. Lately his favorite line is "What's going on here." He will walk into a room and even though nothing is out of the ordinary he will ask me "What's going on here." I love to talk to him. My favorite thing to ask him is Guess what. It usually goes
- ME: "Mason, guess what"
-Mason: "I wuv you"

I taught him this purly for the selfish reason to him say I love you. His favorite Movie lately is really any movie I will let him watch. His favorite toy of course, is his lighting McQueen cars. He even has to go to bed with them. We love to watch him learn and play.

Now there is Isabelle Gwynn (almost 2). She has one heck of a personality. Those of you who have known me most of my life know that I grew up with the nickname "Woman." I have been told it is because when I was little I walked around like I was 3 going on 26. Well, we have decided that Isabelle may inherit that nickname. She strutts around the house like she is the boss (for the most she is). She talks a ton. It is amazing how different your kids can be. One of the cutest things she askes is:
I love to do her hair and when I am done she will point to her hair and ask "Is it cute?" Of course I always tell her yes.
Isabelle loves everything that Mason loves. And she especially loves her "Buddies" ( that is what she calls him). She even gets mad if she has to go to bed before him and wakes up and wants to give him kisses. Izzy's favorite movie would have to be Peter Pan, although I don't think she has seen past the first 15 minutes. She is so much fun.

As for me, I love being "Mommy." I stay home and play mom all day. I have done a ton of ready and recently joined a bookclub in our nieghborhood. I am a fan of the Twilight series and have been reading a ton of Nicholas Sparks books, and love them. I'm not very good at introducing myself to people, therefore I don't know many of my nieghbors, but now that they have split our ward and they are now in my ward I'm sure that will change.
I have been working on losing weight and have come to love running. I never knew why people could run for fun, but I do now. I have worked really hard and am able to run pretty good and it is kind of empowering.

I hope to become better at this blogging thing and love reading all yours.

I was so excited to see that you started a blog. I love keeping updated with people like this because it seems like it has been the only way that has worked for me. It's fun to hear what your family has been up to lately, and I hope to hear much more in the future. Next time we're close by, we'll have to stop by and visit again.
