I’m sure the grammar in that post will make my mother shudder, but wow, its been almost three weeks? Facebook has really killed the blogosphere amongst my friends.
So whats new? Well emily and I have joined gyms. She and her mom joined Curves. I heard a lot of good stuff about it from Kurt and Jodie and mentioned it a few times to Emily. so far they both really love it. I joined one of the local Urban Active gyms (what used to be Golds Gym). I’ve been going 3-4 days a week for the last 2-3 weeks now. I really enjoy it. The gym has racquetball, a two lane lap pool, cardio, classes etc. Now I just need to get some ppl at the gym to play R-Ball with me (Scott, Chris…you reading this?)
Sean’s second birthday is coming up and we are starting to plan his party Sean will be in town (Big Sean) that weekend too. Should be a lot of fun. Want to come to the party? let me know I know the chick sending out the invites!

You may remember almost exactly 3 years ago, I bought a new TV. Well starting sometime in December, we started noticing a white spot here and there on the TV. I did some research and found out it is a common problem with this model for the TVs made/sold Dec 2006 – March 2007. Basically, the chip inside the TV (DLP chip) has thousands of little mirrors that are on even smaller hinges. So the hinges lock in the up position and project a white dot on the screen that looks like a dead pixel.
After about a month we went from 3 dots to about 200. We tried to watch Harry Potter last night on DVD and the screen was so terrible it made the movie not so enjoyable. So, after saving best buy gift cards from birthdays and Christmas, I went to Best Buy and picked up a new TV.

Its an LG 47LH40-UA 47″ LCD TV (1080P, 120hz, etc). The picture is amazing compared to the Samsung. We are watching a DVD now and the screen is amazing, but it may take some getting used to. The movements of people, for example, seem weird – kind of hard to explain.

I know, we haven’t posted in forever. Here are some great pictures that Matt (Megan’s boyfriend) took while we were in St. Louis for THanksgiving, and some that Brian took at the Cincinnati, Duke Energy Train Exhibition this morning. Sean is getting really big! Sean is crazy about trains lately, so he was pretty exited about seeing the trains! They even had a Thomas and Percy train in the bunch!

So I think that someone took my son and replaced him with a stunt double. Last night he didn’t want a bottle for the first time in his life at bedtime. He never asked for it, went to bed and slept through the night…weird. Then, we came home after a trip to the library after picking him up from school and he went into the kitchen, pointed to the fridge and said “Milk, mommy.” Uhh…he has never drank milk from a cup…ever. He always refuses, which is part of the reason we still give him a bottle at night; since he never gets milk otherwise. So he polished off a whole cup of milk went “ahhhh” and said “more milk, mommy?” Who is this kid???

We’ll see how long this lasts; especially because I probably jinxed it by writing this post.

Could we be done with bottles??

We had a great Halloween with Sean. Diana made him a very cute Kitty costume. He wore it to school on Friday for their Halloween party. When it was time for trick or treating yesterday, Sean didn’t want to put his costume on. We opened the door and he saw all the kids dressed up, then he got excited about it and put his costume on! We headed out and after about 3 houses, he finally understood that people were giving him candy! He then started walking up to houses on his own and saying “more neenee (candy)!” He was so cute! He actually walked around for 1.5 hours and was going strong. I made him stop, because I was tired, but he kept saying “more neenee!” LOL. Here are some pictures of his cute little self on Halloween morning playing in leaves, and also in his costume:
