It's Monday....... Well I'm starting week number 11? for the spring semester. I couldn't be happier with the weather we've had this past week. Leila and I had so much fun over spring break and it makes me want to be home with Leila all the time. It was nice not to worry about school and just play all day. I think once school is over with I'll be reminded of what a stay at home mom really does. Aubrey spends just as much time with Leila at home as I do and I love that. I love it because I have the opportunity to go to school and do what the Lord has commanded which is get an education. I think of all the things I know and try to remember if I knew those things before I officially started college. I definitely feel more valuable and able to teach my children about everything especially about physical education and things like health and nutrition, daily aspects of everyone's life. I plan on graduating in December of 2011 and by the way things are going now, I feel like it's just around the corner. Yee yeah! So I'm excited and this semester has just been flying by.

Another reason I'm glad things are flying by is because I NEED to hold my baby! She does NOT stop moving and I love it. She is definitely a physical little girl. I am excited to get her out and just swaddle her. Swaddle her so she can't kick me and play the drums on my insides. Every time I see a baby I just want to ask if I can hold it. I haven't lately because I was sick for the whole month of February with whatever everyone was passing around. I just can't wait to hold her. We thought we decided on a name but Aubrey isn't quite sure yet. The fact that he isn't sure makes me unsure too. I think we might just have to see her to decide what fits. We do know that her middle name will be Afsar. It's Persian and Aubrey's grandma's name. It means, leader, commander, crown, tiara. You get the picture. As of right now that suits her. I've mentioned before that she kicked my side so I pushed her back and and then she kicked me HARDER! I was surprised. I just can't wait to meet her. I don't know how I'm going to love two girls the same just yet though. I'm sure I'll know shortly.




Just a photo of Leila being a big girl. Time for a haircut maybe?













My sexy husband... Pretty sure he can grow a beard faster than yours.














I went red. I let Aubrey choose the color. I just needed something different and I like it.

Coupon for class!

Hey everyone! There is another coupon for any class at Blue aka Adult Dance and Fitness. As much as I would LOVE for you to come to my class, I would like for you to just come to any class and get working out! My step class is on Thursday nights from 6-7 p.m. I love teaching there and recently my class has really picked up and we have a good time. I will say it one more time that I like it a lot more than at Weber but I will also say again, I do not teach pole or chair dancing. I don't think I would ever attend those classes anyway just cause I know I can get a workout without at the sexuality. Idk it's just weird to me. So print out some coupons and hand them out like crazy or if you need I can bring you some coupons too. Well hope to see you there and if you don't come to my class just get working out cause we all know we need to! (You know you need to) Remember the coupon expires the end of March and you can print the coupon from www.marcibarker.com

Cavities!

I have two cavities! Sucky!

So our dog is gone, it was nice to have him but not nice to worry about something being chewed up when we came home. So we found a good person off KSL to take him. The lady had another lab that needed a friend so it's a win win situation. Except for the fact in damages from the dog we suffered. Oh well. I let Aubrey get a dog cause he really wanted one so.... Maybe we'll get another one later. Either a smaller one or an older one.

So I'm approaching 28 weeks and ready to shake this cold I've had since the beginning of Fabruary. Luckily spring break is coming and I'll get a break from school. I wish I could go to Arizona with Jenny and Kristina but I will spend my spring break getting ready for a bridal shower for Carlee, Trevor's fiance. Yes...... Trevor's fiance! I am so excited for the two. The big day is March 26th at the Salt Lake Temple! Did I mention I am so excited!? I want to see what those little babies look like. hahaha


So I always forget to put up pictures so I will put some random ones up now. I got a video camera for christmas so I've had to figure all that jazz out.

The best picture taken in 2009!

Leila with the nice- not scary Santa.

This picture is dedicated to my lover Aubrey. I LOVES dingy cats. Our new camera does a really good zoom so whatever chance we get we record these wild dingy cats. These cats were sitting on the top of the truck in our driveway and I was standing in the family room. Pretty cool and random so I posted it. (There are 3 cats in this picture.)


This picture is proof that Leila does not get her eye color from me. But I'm just fine with that, look at those eyes. My beautiful PERSIAN girl.
