Random thought- maybe cabin fever (still)

I want to take my first couples vacation... Me and Phil and at least one other couple. I am thinking a cruise since they are all inclusive or a trip to Vegas. Maybe we could use my mother-in-law's time share in Grand Cayman?

hmmmmmmm...

Josephine- 16 months:
I can't believe how quickly Josephine is growing up. My life passes right before my eyes when I think about how fast the time has gone. When she was a newborn, I couldn't wait to see her grow and now I just want her to stay the way she is for a while.

In the past 4 months, Josephine learned to walk. She walks everywhere and in doing so has fallen a few times. One time, she required 4 stitches. About a month after she got her stitches out, she fell again and hit the same spot. She has learned a lot of new signs and is now talking when she says them. She knows duck, more, eat, baby, bath, thank-you, milk, please, puppy, ball, all done, phone, and banana. She says Daddy, Dada (which is mama), thank-you, please, bless you, two, diaper and love you. Josephine is ALWAYS singing. Her favorite songs to sings are the ABC's and The Itsy Bitsy Spider.

I love everything about her and am excited to see the new things she can do but wish there was more time.

Background: My name is Kimmie Pearson. I live in Edina, MN with my husband, Phil and daughter, Josephine. This blog is all about how my life makes me who I am.

I grew up in Isanti, MN and lived there until I was 18. After graduation, I moved to Cambridge for the summer and lived with Ange and Andrew. From there, I went to two weeks of college at St. Scholastica in Duluth. College was not (and still is not) for me so I moved to St. Paul to live with Ange (again) and Alyssa (I just realized I have lived with all of you Burgers). When I couldn't find a job in St. Paul (mainly because I wasn't actively looking), I moved back to Isanti for about four months. In 2005, I made the big move to Minneapolis where I rented an apartment with my friend, Cassie, in Loring Park. In 2005, I started dating my now husband, Phil. We got engaged a year later and married the year after that (October 2007). After our wedding, we moved to Edina. On mother's day 2008, I found out I was pregnant and gave birth to a wonderful, healthy baby girl- Josephine.

Now you know a little about my background. My next posts will be more exciting.
