SUMMER CAMP

If you or anyone you know is interested in Summer Camp for your kids, Meagan and I are doing one this Summer at her house for ages 3-6 on Tuesday's and Thursdays from 9am-12pm Checkout the website www.twosisterspreschool.com and pass the word along if you know anyone who might be interested.

Too Cute for Words

Mark and I have been trying to teach Coytt that there is a baby in mommy's belly so I will rub my belly and say "baby, baby" or "baby Dalon" (we have decided to name him Dalon Anthony) and Mark will do the same when he is home; rub my belly and tell Coytt "baby, baby". Well yesterday Coytt was running around the house in just his diaper and he got to the living room and stopped and looked at me and started rubbing his belly in a cirle and saying "baby, baby, baby". I couldn't stop laughing, he is so stinkin' adorable! All we have to do now is ask where's the baby or say the word baby and he lifts his shirt and rubs his belly saying "baby, baby, baby." He is too cute!

Oh BOY!

Well we went to the Dr. yesterday and had my 20 wk ultrasound and it looks like we are having another BOY! I of course am very excited, Mark is happy, but sad because he was so excited to have daddy's little girl. Coytt I am sure would be happy either way, but he does need a brother to wrestle with. The ultrasound went great, he moved a lot and it looks like we have another active little boy on our hands. Everything is fine and working properly the tech said. That always makes me feel good. The only problem we have now is thinking of boy names. We had a a girl name all picked out, but I have not been able to think of boy names. So if you ahve any suggestions for a little boys name please let me know.

I've Been Tagged

Meagan tagged me here's how it works, write 7 things/habits about yourself and then tag 7 other people and refer them to your blog for instructions.

1) I love to dance, any kind of dancing. I always say I am going to enroll in classes and I never do, but hopefully after this baby that will be how I lose the weight...dance classes. I am sure I will embarrass my children plenty when I dance around the store when a good song comes on, or as I dance around the living room even if their friends are around. It is just such a wonderful and free feeling.

2) I have a new found love for the gospel and want to have as gospel centered home and life as possible. I never thought I would feel this way or have the priorities that I do now, but I want to be as close to my Heavenly Father as possible. Although I am afraid sometimes that I will never be as spiritual as I desire, I am working hard at becoming more so every day.

3) I love beans and salsa. I could eat beans every day for the rest of my life and I would be happy. Pinto beans are my favorite followed by refried pinto beans. I will eat black beans, but pinto are my fav. I have been known to eat a whole jar of salsa in one sitting, once I start I just can't stop.

4) I love being a mother. I never thought that I would be such a sofite or such a cry baby, but being a mom has totally changed me. Every new thing he learns every challenge he overcomes brings me to tears because I am so pleased with him. I love playing with my son and singing to him. Even when he upsets me and I feel I am stressed beyond belief I love being his mom, and I know that no matter what I will always love him.

5) I am the most disorganized person you will ever meet. No matter how hard I try things just always seem disorganized and chaotic around me. It drives my husband bonkers, but it is just something that has always been a part of me, and even when I try it is a chaotic mess. I wish I had Mark's or Meagan's skills in this department, but I was definately not blessed with the skill of organization.

6) I love being spontaneous. If Mark said at 2am Saturday morning lets go to Vegas and visit your Grandpa Romine I would have no problem jumping in the car and going. I love to just let things happen. I am sure this adds to my disorganization, but I just love the feeling of doing things on the fly. It doesn't have to be that extreme either. Even not planning the weekend and letting it all just happen is exciting to me.

7) I love to snuggle. I don't mind when Mark, Coytt and I are all smashed together on the love seat, or the nights when Mark and I had to share a twin bed. I love being snuggled and snuggling back. I am glad my husband doesn't go completely crazy when I sit on the same cussion as him and just snuggle right up against him all the time.

Well that's about it 7 interesting or not so interesting facts about Monette Corralez.

Springtime Fun

I planted some chilis and tomatoes in pots on our patio and my first chili has started to grow. I am so excited. I am waiting for the tomatoes, Meagan already has some red ones on hers, so I need to catch up. I was so proud at Relief Society last week when they asked who had veggies growing at their home and I got to raise my hand...I am a true Mormon woman now :)




Too Cool isn't he?





We went to the park with Josh and Meagan. The wind was out of control, but we still had a lot of fun. I never knew there was such thing as too much wind for a kite. We had Mark's F-16 kite and it was an adventure to keep that thing in the air. We would get it up and then it would spin out of control and take a nose dive into the ground. It almost took Coytt out at one time. It was fun being out with the family though, and watching Josh try to fish in the wind. Coytt loved chasing the ball all over, and I didn't even have to throw it because the wind just blew it all over the grass.
