Aeryn's 1st Birthday and Walking!

What can I say? There is so much that has beening on that I forget what I have told people and what is still pending news! Aeryn just turned 1 year old AND she is walking. I'm not sure how I feel about either one of those things. My baby is getting bigger and older by the day. She had two birthday parties. One from my parnets in Texas and one for her family here in Utah. She was showered with gift and more importantly with love. I hope when she is older she can appreciate what had been done for her. The first birthday was at Meemaw and Pohpoh Baldera's house. Unfortunatly, my uncle (Joe) passed away that Saturday and therefore her birthday was shared with his funeral. I went ahead with the birthday gathering due to nothing makes a person feel better then a new baby turning 1. I hope it helped my family because I know it helped me. The cake was vanilla with Bolvarian cream filling. Theh frosting was buttercream (pink and white). Her personal cake was chocolate on chocolate (girl after my own heart). It was a good time. She made a mess with the cake but I think she loved it! The second birthday was in Utah. She was surrounded by her uncles and Meemaw Wilson. Her cake was a doll cake that I decided to make her (forgot to take a picture of it!). But one of the best presents she could have given herself was her ability to start walking! She started about 3 days before her bithday. She was taking a few steps then falling but she really took off in Texas. Maybe, she wanted to get away! Well, I am sure I am missing a lot but I am feelign a little tired today. Have a great week!

1st day of 3rd Grade (Alex)

Well, it was the first week of Alex being back @ school. He was very excited to get back to his friends. He has already started a new group with two other friends of his. They have called themselved "The Sketchers" (named after the shoes they were wearing the first day of school). The other two kids are named David and Jen Lin. Very diverse group by the way. Alex is ALREADY complaining about homework. I don't have the heart to tell him he has a long way to go.

"Why I do the things I do?"

Well, what can I say? I like reading other people's blogs so I decided to do my own. I'm such a follower. Mom would ask "If someone were jumping off a bridge would you do it?" And apparently, I would. I am mostly doing this for family members who live so far away from us (or is us that is far from them?). I guess it depends on where you are . Well, there should be a lot done to this in a near future I just need to figure how to get it work. Typical Wilson! The first real blog entry will be about me and my little family. So look for it soon. I guess this is all for now.
