Been awhile

Well, I've been out for awhile, had a lot going on, But now I have a little time and thought I would update you all (aka one of you) of what's going on with the Rodgers clan.

William is almost walking, cruising around like a nut. But he just wont take that step by himself. We were worried that his legs might not be strong enough to walk, but he is proving that theory wrong. I think my mom is right, he's just lazy.

Vinny is doing really well with his "homeschooling". We are doing spelling words every week and math and reading. He really is an amazing little learning machine. He asks me for "school time" and is sad when we're done. It's so nice because he seems to have inherited Dan's love of learning and not my love of goofing off.

Actually, we just finished having him read 5 short/simple stories and do 4 little assignments. He absolutely loved it. He only stopped when I changed to math, which he sometimes loves but not today.

The rest of things are going well, busy at the shop, working on the house. Oh! I am working out on the Wii. Less than 1 week and I have lost 3.3lbs doing 30 minutes of cardio a each night, normally before dinner to help with digestion. Perhaps a little TMI but I am proud of it. Dan has lost 5-6lbs this past week as well.

We haven't being do much outside our daily schedule, which has really been getting to me. I am minorly depressed and I am usually able to get out of my funks without meds or anything. But this time I am struggling. I think I need to mix it up a little. Luckily tonight is a fun activity with the RS sisters, tomorrow is a "book unveiling" for a friend and next month there are activities and such going on that should help break up the monotony and help me out a bit.

And I think that's about it. At least for now.
