when plans change

Well, no big vacation for my birthday. :-\ The money just isn't going to pan out. This economy blows, our groceries are more than 2 times what they used to be! UGH! I have to start school in the fall again, and the community colleges here are SO EXTREMELY STUPIDLY EXPENSIVE that I can't afford to be messing around going camping and stuff. I have a theory about why they are so costly...but it's not for mixed ears. It's looking less and less like I"m going to Utah in the fall too, which really kills me.

I'm not sure if I mentioned, but Aiden now has TWO teeth. :-) What a little champ. He also regularly sleeps through the night now, and takes good naps during the day. He's been having fun playing at the pool, riding in the bike trailer, going to Jackie's house to play with Emily and visiting all around. He needs to go in soon to get his shots (we're on an alternate schedule, so he gets some shots at 7 months), but we don't have to have a check up until he's 9 months old! He's getting so big. He can scoot all over the place now, and he's fast. I'm sure he'll move quickly to a crawl, and we think he'll walk before he turns 1.

Speaking of turning 1, all our friends are invited to come out for his birthday in November. We are not sure if we want to do the big party on the 14th or the 21st, but probably the 14th since I'm going to be running in the Turkey Day 5K on the 22nd, don't want to be all loaded with cake and stuff! It will be here in Blaine, but probably at my friend's house, she has more space to entertain than I do!

I better jet, Jesse is coming in about 24 hours and I have to make this house ready for her to be here for a whole week! SO EXCITED!!!!!!
