TGIF

I have never used the expression "TGIF" before. I have always enjoyed Fridays but never felt the need to express so by saying, "TGIF". I, however, felt like saying it today because today is a really good Friday :)

I woke up on the right side of the bed. So to speak. I haven't had breakfast yet though. I thought I would update my blog first then go eat breakfast. After breakfast, I have to finish cleaning the house. I don't have much left so it should be easy.

I have to take Tyler to the airport around 3 o'clock today. His flight leaves at 5:00. I'm excited. Not because he will be gone, but because when he gets home it will be with Ryan :) They are planning on driving out here tonight. If they stick with the plan then they should be here tomorrow evening. I am looking forward to them getting here.

While Tyler's gone, I have somewhat of a fun weekend planned for Kairi and I. After we drop Tyler off at the airport, I am planning on visiting my friend Bobby then heading over to my friend Melanie's house, where I may or may not stay the night. We will see. Kairi and I are going to the Hogle Zoo tomorrow morning with Grandma Mace, Aunt Brittney, Aunt Dakota, and Jayden. It should be a lot of fun. We haven't been since Kairi was really little. I am excited to take her this time around since she is older now and will be to enjoy it more. We might even ride the train this time.

Well, I have to get cleaning. I have already put it off long enough.

Away We Go

There is a great website that gives out, when available, tickets for screeners. The website name is Film Metro. I highly recommend signing up for an account there and checking back frequently for screeners in your area!

Awhile back, I reserved tickets for a screener of Away We Go which Tyler and I went and saw yesterday night. Needless to say, it was a great movie and I loved it. Easily one of my favorites. I cannot wait for it to come out on Blu-ray. Before the movie started, a guy from the radio station 101.9 gave out t-shirts and three items pertaining to the movie. One of the items was a copy of the screenplay AND I got it :]

That is it in the picture!

Kairi, Kairi, Ryan, and more Kairi.

Kairi has 4 teeth coming in that I can see/feel. Once these 4 teeth come in, she will have a total of 14 teeth! That seems like a lot, doesn't it? Teething doesn't seem to be bothering her so much anymore. She's such a trooper. It's hard for me to remember her without teeth.

Her vocabulary has gotten pretty big! She knows 10+ words now. She can say momma, mommy, dada, daddy, papa, baby, kitty, apple, Tyler, Sophie, don't, uh-uh, uh-oh, yeah, and go. She can sign a little bit too. She signs 'more' and 'food' a lot. I have been trying to teach her how to sign 'milk' and a few , but she is so stubborn and refuses to. I put Signing Time on for her everyday :] I think it helps. She loves watching and dancing to all of them. It's great!

She's becoming more independent everyday. It's amazing watching her grow and learn. She went from being totally helpless to being able to crawl, walk, run, climb, talk, open & close things, and feed herself among other things. I love her personality and how fun she has become!

Ryan will be out here in ~5 days! I am looking forward to having him as a roommate. I think he will be a great rooomate :]

Secret Life Party

I had a party yesterday to celebrate the season 3 premiere of The Secret Life of the American Teenager. It didn't pan out how I thought it would. The disc they sent me only showed a sneak peak of the season 3 premiere. It was quite a disappointed as I had thought it was going to show the whole premiere :( Overall, the party was good. There was delicious snacks! I made crepes, Julianne brought easy peasy cheesy puffs, and Carla brought chips, dip, salsa, and cookies. We also watched sneak peaks of Make It or Break It, 10 Things I Hate About You, and Ruby and The Rockits. I liked Make It or Break It and 10 Things I Hate About You. Ruby and The Rockits didn't really catch my interest. After watching the sneak peaks, we all played Apples to Apples. I love that game! The night ended with a game of poker and listening to music on YouTube.com.

Kairi's doctor visit.

Kairi's visit to the doctor yesterday went well. She only had to get the DTaP vaccine :) I was so relieved to hear she only needed to get one shot! She usually has to get five.

Swimming, birthday, and more.

I signed Kairi and myself up for Parent and Child swim classes last month. Our first class was today from 6:15 to 6:45. It wasn't what I expected but I enjoyed it. Kairi really enjoyed it up until she got cold and started shivering. Our next class is in two days. I'm really looking forward to seeing Kairi's progress when we are done with our final class!

Tyler's birthday is tomorrow! He is going to be 23. I wish we had more money so I could do get him something special. I plan on having breakfast ready, his lunch packed, and a special dinner for when he gets home from work. I really wanted to go camping for his birthday but we don't have any camping gear nor did we have enough time to plan the trip. Ashley (Tyler's sisters), Nate (Ashley's boyfriend), and I are hopefully, going to have a BBQ at Nate's house for his birthday. The BBQ won't be until at least Thursday. We'll see.

I have a fairly busy day tomorrow. I have to get up pretty early in the morning and take Kairi to the doctor's office to get her immunization shots. She was sick at her 15 month appmt so we had to postpone giving her shots. I have to stop by the library and drop of the Signing Time DVD that I borrowed and then I have to come home and clean the house. Tyler and mine's friend Ryan is moving out here at the end of this month which means I need to start cleaning and organizing the spare bedroom :S I have no idea where I am going to put Kairi's swing, walker, and other stuff!

Today was an eventful day

Kairi and I went to the HAFB Air Show today with my friend Brittany. It was my first time going. I really enjoyed it. I thought it was a great experience. Needless to say, it was very crowded. There were millions of people there. Okay, maybe not millions but it sure seemed liked it.

The weather started out great but got hotter and hotter as the day progressed. Hello, I am Sophie and I smell my boyfriend to see if he has shit recently. Weird, huh? Yeah, I am. My shoulders, upper back, upper chest, and the front of my thighs are all sunburnt :( Not only that, but I didn't bring any water or anything so by the time we left, I was extremely thirsty. None of the booths accepted credit and I did NOT want to wait in the ATM line. It took Brittany 20 minutes or so to get to the ATM when we got there.

As much as I enjoyed the show, I was really looking forward to going home. We were there a LOT longer than I thought we were going to be. We got there around 9:40AM and didn't leave until about 4:30PM. I didn't expect for the show to last as long as it did. I thought the show was going to be a few hours at most.

Kairi used a spoon for the first time today! She did so well. I am very impressed with her. She has been learning so much at such a fast space. It really amazes me. I sure do love that little girl. She's makes me unbelievably happy :D

Growth percentile charts

All the growth percentile charts I have used say that Kairi is in the 0th percentile for height and weight. I can't get over how tiny she is!

Sorority Life on Facebook

As stupid as Sorority Life is, I enjoy it. I have been playing it more than I have been playing WoW lately. I need to play WoW more. After all, I am paying for it. Anyways. Tyler and I are watching The Shunned; a lower budget horror film. The film so far is meh. Hopefully, the ending is good.

Babies

I know so many people who are my age, give or take a year or two, who have babies and/or are pregnant. It's insane!

It's raining!

I haven't heard it rain this hard in a long time. I love the rain! I am going to sleep soundly tonight :)

Wow-e-wow!

It has been over a year since my last post! I can't believe it has been such a loooong time. I have been posting in my blog at WordPress.com. I decided to switch over to blogspot.com about two days ago. Actually, I don't know if I will be switching but I will definitely be using this blog. I really like WP and am not sure if I want to fully give it up right now. We'll see what happens. I am still working on my layout. There's a couple of things I need to test and want to add. Hopefully, within the next hour I will be done!
