The Barkers

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.
